This is the best pizza on Long Island by far. Always cooked to perfection. Never ever disappoints.I've been coming here for years.

Tons of different pizza choices and options, we love coming here for a quick slice. Very friendly service and typical pizza shop atmosphere that's comfortable and inviting. Plenty of options from pizza to pasta, dishes, and salads. Overall great local place we will keep returning to!Vegetarian options: PlentyDietary restrictions: OptionsParking: Free parking lot.Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Ramp, first floor.
I don’t usually leave review but in this case I had to. I mean who actually has time to sit and write a review good or bad. I have been a customer since they opened and yup some great and some ok. But we don’t live to eat we eat to live don’t we. Some people just are not happy with themselves and feel like their live is over and feel like they should take it out on a small business . It’s not right. Chances are they ( VIA) sucked it up and had to deal with a client who can never be satisfied. It’s probably the best ny pizza you will find on the island. And just because it’s different from your store bought box pizza doesn’t mean it’s not good. Just means you don’t like good pizza. So if you don’t like it, don’t buy it. Buy your stoffers and have at it in your toaster oven and stop taking your own self hate out on small business . They all work had not just via pizza. Smarten up.

Great local pizza spot! Highly recommended in an area that has no shortage of pizza places to pick from. Their pastas and entrees and good as well and the portion sizes are a nice surprise.

That was the first (and quite likely last time) I ordered from this place, as I don't live in the area. Seriously, $45 for a mediocre-at-best pizza and some garlic knots that, despite asking for extra garlic, had barely any at all?Garlic knots should be loaded with garlic, especially when the customer asks and (presumably) pays for extra. Sadly, these had almost no flavor at all. Which is a real shame, given the taste of the pizza which they were meant to compliment.As for the pizza, the problem with it wasn't so much the taste as the mouthfeel and overall quality. I guess they want to justify high prices, but the food suffers for how they're trying to make up for it - with quantity. Individually, the components of the pizza tasted great, with the exception of the center of the crust.The crust has a great flavor overall but it's far too thick, which makes it chewy and feel almost undercooked in the middle.But they have to use such a thick crust to support the weight of the toppings - in this case, the chicken and super thick cheese of the chicken parm pie.Again, the flavors were excellent, but it was just too much when all put together. I realize that in today's world, everyone equates biggest with best, and that's how they're going to attract customers. But in this case, they could have easily used half as much cheese, and maybe 1/3 to 3/4 of the chicken, but cut it up into smaller pieces, and then used half the dough for a nice, NYC style thin and crispy crust.Not only could they then charge less - and thus garner more customers with a combination of quality AND value - but the pizza would be absolutely superior to pretty much any other pie I've ever had.The delivery guy was pleasant and friendly, and was pretty spot-on with the promised delivery time.

I love the place it's best pizza around very clean prices is right and it's real Italian family
A local, fabulous, family pizza/everything Italian place with such a kind owner --- John, and his just as kind staff. Peter rocks. Couldn't be more gracious and appreciative. Truly!!! They've always helped me carry my food to my car too, if I couldn't handle it on my own.So if you want calzone, (Oh! My mouth waters when I think about their calzone made fresh for you!) pizza and the kind of food you'd get at this kinda place, go no further. Via Via Pizza, you'll get the yummiest Italian food around.Bon Appetito!Vegetarian options: Unless you don't eat cheese, isn't a regular slice of pizza a vegetarian option?Have the fine folks at Via Pizza throw mushrooms and onions on your pie if it affirms your vegetarianism. ;)Dietary restrictions: Just ask!Parking: Never worry about this.Kid-friendliness: Kinda odd to have to ask about a pizza place being 'kid-friendly.'Don'tcha think?Wheelchair accessibility: Or this.

You wouldn't know this place has really, really good pizza and food, since it just looks like an average pizza joint in an average strip mall. However the pizza was amazing. Great fresh garlic and basil tasting sauce, nice thin crust (except sicilian!) and quality flavorful cheese. We ordered an eggplant parm slice a vegetable slice with spinach, zucchini, pepper, and onion. All were much better than i expected. My daughter ordered a sicilian, which i tasted and liked the crust simultaneously chewy and crispy, if that makes sense. My son spaghetti and meatballs. Homeade sauce and big Homeade meatballs. Will definitely return if im in the area. Normal pizza prices, not expensive. It's great that some places really put extra effort into the food they sell. Also guys working were friendly, helpful and the place had just a good positive feel to it.

Every single thing we ordered was mind blowing good. Opened the pizza box the second we got back into the car (parked directly in front of Via) and i wouldnt be surprised if the folks there got 1st row seats to the two of us doing the "this is soooo good" head nod over and over. Incredible crust and balance of toppings. We got a few slices and garlic bread and chicken parm. The slices are huge as well as the serving of chicken parm being able to feed a fam of 3-4. Hope youre on your way now, you wont regret it.

Via has excellent NY-style pies and great Sicilian style, too. I’ve tried many in the area, and as a former Chef I am very picky about what the style should and shouldn’t be. We gave them a shot last year and they nailed it. Now, they are our family’s go-to shop when we vacation near Stony Brook. The pies are very large, so count heads accordingly. I’m 6’1”, 200 lbs and 2 slices of sausage/mushroom had me stuffed.

Only ordered for delivery, never been! Pizza is delicious and prices are very reasonable!
