I've enjoyed many meals at Benvenuto's. Every dish I purchase is exquisite. Not to mention, the service is unique. You might be picking up food or eating in the dining room but the experience is always high level. Even when they get something wrong they are always willing to absorb the cost because it was their mistake. They are dedicated to perfection and I really appreciated that! read more

The quality of food has gone down while the prices have gone up. They have decided to let you know on both the bill and receipt that you are paying 11 cents extra for a soda when you use a credit card. Chicken dish....$24.95 , not when paying w/ a card...then it's .85 cents more. That's one reason the place was empty on a weekend night. People don't like to be nickeled and dimed. Also, when will they stop putting the tip options on the bill? 20-25 30 % That's got to hurt the servers, who are the best thing about the place. read more

Benvenuto's has amazing brick oven pizza. The pies always taste fresh and the toppings always flavorful. Their dinners are delicious and they give great portions. The server was polite and friendly. The only thing could add to the experience was that we had to order the wine by the glass. A carafe option would have been nice and maybe cost saving. With that being said, the price of the complete mean was still very reasonable read more

Been here and gotten takeout many times and the last few times the food has SUCKED. Do not recommend. Carbonara was just oil and spaghetti with dry garlic knots. read more

So close to home and so worth it! The food and service is always on point. I have too many dishes to mention that are my favorite. The only thing I've ever had and wasn't crazy about were the mozzarella sticks. Everything else is delicious. read more

The best Italian restaurant around the area..great food. Delicious. Great big portions. Always friendly. Love this place. Order from them at least 2 to 3 times a week. Everything you order will be delicious. You won't regret it read more

Great local restaurant. Food is always excellent. Plus they are always willing to accommodate any dietary requests. My kids who do not live in Mahopac always insist ordering pizza and other entrees when they visit us. It should be known that Rocky has been so generous with donating food to local causes. read more

what happened to the pizza? last couple times getting pies they have been super super thin including a thin hard crust. This is not the Benvenuto we've been used to. read more

Gave the wrong order to the Door Dash driver. Door Dash advised to call the merchant, and they refused to deliver even though our order was still "sitting on the counter". Zero integrity and happy to steal $68 from a family. Shameful, to say the least. read more

Benvenuto Pizza Restaurant - Veal Parmigiana with ziti,It was Excellent! - Italian Near Me - Mahopac, New York

Best salad pizza we've ever had! And the gluten free and cauliflower crust pizzas are excellent. Highly recommend.

DON'T EAT HERE! 3 weeks ago my husband, another couple and I went to eat. As we were leaving my husband began to feel sick. We made it home in time for him to go to the bathroom. He had eggplant parm and we have eaten there plenty of times before with no problems. He had stomach problems for a few days after. So on Tuesday night we went back to eat and i got the veal piccata. It was very good as usual. My husband got the eggplant parm again. And again he was feeling sick. I took home the rest of my food and later shared it with my daughter. We were almost finished with the food and then we seen it A MAGGOT!!! A disgusting maggot was in my dish. Immediately we both felt sick to our stomachs. We did notify the restaurant and wanted to speak to the owner but he was not in and was supposed to call us back and of course he never did. So do yourself a favor And stay away from this place read more

Crew are very polite very efficient. Food is delicious and so generous portions. I loved!! I really recommend. Make sure you call before for a reservation. read more

This is a special gem. There are many, many choices for Italian restaurants in our area that are mediocre or Italian fast food. Everything that is made is different and made from scratch. You taste the roasted garlic in the escarole and bean soup..just like Nana made! The quality of the ingredients is too a level above. If interested, just try a slice of one of their pizzas...you won't be disappointed. Secondly, they care about the customers they serve and their kindness shined during Covid as it does with each order. Reminds me of Manganaro's which was on Ninth Avenue, NYC...open from 1893 to 2012. Now, I wish Benvenuto would write a cookbook! read more

My local fav with astonishing variety, almost every pie extremely well made. Soups are freshly-made, extremely well-priced, and easily the best tasting in the area. In any area. There's a huge variety of pies here. I'd be inclined to worry that there are too many, yet every one is spectacular and uniquely it's own. Brick oven pizzas come in all the usual types. Plain, sausage, pepperoni of course, margherita, BBQ, shrimp, bacon, whatnot.... Veggie, too, and even that whatsit thing with pineapples.... There are pies called "specials" plus Sicilian and gluten free and even something with a cauliflower crust that I've never been inclined to try. There's the square thin crust Grandma's pizza, a California pizza, a Godfather pizza and the exceptional "Friday in Vatican" all veggie, meatless pizza. Every time I've gone in to pick up a pie or three, there are shelves laden with gleaming prebaked slices, each looking unique and impossible to refuse. (And you're well-advised to be adventurous - these really are spectacular slices and squares, as good as they look.) And then there's the eat-in food here, too, sometimes even better than these best-in-class pies. In the back, on the side, a pleasant dining room serves Incredible parmigiana, perfectly prepared pastas, those great soups and stunningly good sauces, always enough for an opulently overfed dinner plus a hearty lunch or two the next day. It's amazing how such a simple, unassuming, way off on a back road kind of place can consistently turn out such world-class foods. And yet they do, and have every time I've been there. It's small and humble and simply the best around. There is no better pizza in the area. read more

Just ordered some pizza to and was very disappointed the pizza was very oily which cased the cheese to come right off the pizze. I had ordered a large pie with with mushroom & anchovies and it only came with anchovies. Definitely the last time I order from there read more

I was visiting Carmel from NYC and on my way back looked up this place for lunch. I walked in to a huge variety of pizzas available by the slice. The calamari pizza was sooooo great and both slices were warm, crusty and perfect - will be my go to if I happen to be in this neighborhood again. Service was excellent and also managed to have a great chat with the owner about his passion for this place! I highly recommend trying this pizza place out. read more

Great Pizza !! I don't know what people are talking about when they say they can't find a good pizza place upstate they obviously haven't stopped by Benvenuto !! Their pizza is SUPERIOR SUPERB!! Better than any pizza that I have ever tasted !! Love this place ! read more

My wife and I drove off the highway looking for a place for a light lunch. We just happened into this restaurant not knowing anything about it. We stepped into an amazing dining room. A mural painted across the entire dining room walls., Making us feel like we were in Italy. We ended up ordering entire dinners. The food was amazing. And the service was excellent! I highly recommend this restaurant' read more

Sad to say Benvenuto appears to be going downhill. Perhaps it is because they opened a 2nd location and the owner is not at this location as often. We typically order on Sundays and the last two times my salad had spoiled vegetables in it. Also, a wedge was undercooked with the cheese not even being melted. At first I thought it was a fluke however it appears to be the new norm. I will look for a new takeout place in the area. read more

Fantastic place. I had the lasagna -- exquisite -- great salad with homemade dressing -- hubby had pizza, wonderful. Very busy but still service was attentive & timely. Highly recommend. read more

Benvenuto Pizza Restaurant - Lasagna ... amazing. - Italian Near Me - Mahopac, New York

Nothing like the kitchen staff going to the deli next door getting a tall can of bud light and going back to work. Gave it enough shot...... Family use To go here all the time for the convenience. But it's always crowded with teenage kids and honestly, the food is very salty. Pizza is thinner than I remember The boss was not very nice and spoke in another language when I asked the server a question . Wish he had the respect to answer to my face . Why are the reviews so good ? Because they contact poor reviewers and tell them to take it down. And they'll offer something... happened to rents neighbors as well. Plenty of other pizza places to go to in the area. Don't waste your time read more

They make a good pizza.... Sometimes! About 50% of the time. They burn the crust even if you ask them to not burn it. It's a shame because they can make a great pizza. read more

We were a party of six (6) who had dinner at this restaurant this past Saturday. We have been there many times before and the owner, knows all of us. When I presented the yelp coupon for one free dessert, the owner had a temper tantrum and kept yelling that he didn't agree to the free dessert. His voice got so loud, that everyone in the restaurant was looking at me. He finally screamed at me and said that I was a " pain in the a...". At that point, my husband and I got up, paid our bill upfront, and left. I vowed never to return as did our 4 friends who were left to tell the owner that he completely handled this situation poorly. read more

UPDATE: So I was pleasantly surprised to receive a call apologizing for the mistake of a young trainee who mistakenly labeled my order pick up rather than delivery. Thank you Rocky for taking the time to follow up this morning and I look forward to not having to cook tonight. Fifth star pending on food :) UPDATE 2: Awesome food! Thank you Rocky for the complimentary dinner! Looking forward to my husband getting his vaccine so we can dine in and come say hello! Love a place with great food and does right by their customers....even if they're new customers :) ------- If zero stars was possible. Called to verify they deliver to my address. They said they did. Order a pie soda and a wedge at 7:24 PM. Order never came. No one answered the phone after 9PM. I'm floored. 1st for everything in life. Pizza no show. ‍ read more

Decent Artichoke pizza- I would even go as far as to say that I like it as much as the famous Artichoke pizza in Manhattan. The thinner crust was a plus. The employees are also on point- very on top of seeing to every guest as soon as they walk in through the door. read more
