Pizza Train Wreck

I came in shortly before 4:00 PM. I hadn't eaten anything all day yet so I was very hungry. On the menu it didn't specify different sizes so I confirmed with the waitress. She said they only have one size, 12 inches. If you get a 12" cheese pizza it costs $18.50. I wanted pepperoni so that was an additional $2.99. I thought this is really overpriced but I was hungry so I just decided to go with it. A bit later the pizza came out. I couldn't believe what I saw. This pizza looked like a train wreck. It came out with pizza sauce on top of the cheese on some parts of the pizza. This looked more like abstract art than pizza. Not only that, this was the sloppiest looking pizza I had ever seen. I can't believe that somebody would make something like this and have it presented to someone. I would be really embarrassed if I made something that came out looking like that. What was the purpose of this extra sauce on top of the cheese? That was a first. That's not how it's supposed to be. After a while, I wondered, "could it be that the additional pizza sauce was covering up something?" So, I scraped away some of it and I noticed shredded mozzarella cheese not fully cooked hiding underneath all of that sauce. Nothing like cutting corners and giving your own customers overpriced crap-food just to make things easier for yourself huh? See the picture of the slice. I just don't understand how somebody could cook something like that, have it served to their customers and not be embarrassed by it. The crust wasn't good either. You can tell just by looking at it. In terms of quality, this pizza is one step above a $hit sandwich. How can you screw up a pizza? Maybe this guy isn't cut out to be a pizza maker or maybe it's simply above his pay grade. I should have read all these reviews before I tried this place. I don't know this place manages to stay in business. I spent $27.42 for a 12" pepperoni pizza and 1 Dr. Pepper.

To the right is the carbonara to the left or the onions I removed

I had the spaghetti carbonara, they cut whole onions with bacon. I just got back from Italy. Did I say anymore? The garlic bread thumbs down Caesar salad was so basic wasn't worth it Services OK, not great waiting for refill 10 minutes . We're sitting outside. It's pretty cold so the places nice but chilly.

traditional pizza

food was good. it's average brick oven pizza. my complaint. You order a bucket to drink and you pay $25 for ice. and a drop of alcohol. not worth it.

Just about the right proportions of everything. My wife and I split a half which was the perfect amount for lunch. Nice atmosphere complete with wood burning pizza oven and great service. My only regret was not getting to try the pizza which looked equally great.

Let me begin by saying, we have always been huge Ripieno's fans. It's a place we rave about and…read morehave always brought family to or suggested they dine at while in OCMD. The Greek salad and Margherita pizza is our go to, but we have had their cheesesteak subs, lasagna, and their various assortments of desserts. Ripieno's special-brew chai iced tea is something else that has always kept us coming back. That is until today. While the pizza and salad were still very good, they weren't as outstanding as they have been in the past. Customer service is not the same as it once was. When we ordered the chai tea, this evening, no orange and lemon slices were offered. As we were dining outside, I walked in to ask if they had orange and lemon slices for the iced-tea available. The cashier first seemed as though he didn't see me, and then when i caught his attention and asked about the slices of orange and lemon for the tea, he looked at me as if he didn't not know what I was talking about. I looked at the girl behind the counter that walked over with the salad dressing that had not been delivered with our salads and asked her about the fruit. She looked confused as well and said they didn't have any. The iced-tea on its own is very good, but the slices of orange and lemon really make it great! Back to the food...when our pizza was brought to the table, the gentleman that delivered it, (I think he may have been attending the wood-fire oven) threw our paper plates on the table. Next came the Greek salads. We were short two sets of silverware which was noticed by the second server. She said she would return with silverware, but didn't. So, I went back inside and asked for the two sets of silverware we needed. I was asked if I wanted plastic. I responded that I would prefer metal silverware. The girl disappeared and returned several minutes later with the silverware. I realize it is the busy season, but the restaurant was not busy. We've been during the busy season and in the off season and have always had wonderful experiences. I am truly hoping that this was a one-time thing, and that Ripieno's will return to the same familiar place we used to love to go.

I ended up scrapping that idea when I saw the menu of cheesesteaks that could be made with a GF wrap. It was SO SIMPLE with just steak and my choice of cheese provolone or American. Yes you can add onions and peppers if you'd like but it wasn't automatic which for me is the hugest or the huge pluses. A simple American cheese and steak wrapped up into melty goodness was delicious. I super enjoyed it, came out piping hot. Hubs ordered a canoli which I cannot have but I THINK I can eat the filling so I had one bite and WOW can I just order the filling not the pastry? Sooooooooo yummy. They also brought a pizza out for hubs and told him they overcooked it, asked him if the crust was too done and if so they would make him another. I thought this was amazing service as they took accountability right away. Hubs said it was fine and enjoyed his pizza, may or may not have been even better with a not "as done" crust. I think I will return tomorrow night, my last night in town, for another cheesesteak.

Service was quick and so was the staff at making the pizza. We ordered the everyday special for two…read moreslices and a drink for $10. Pizzas were delicious.

I first discovered Pino's during a beach trip in 2020, when COVID restrictions kept most of the beach experience limited to our house or condo. Their enormous 28 inch pizzas were perfect for feeding our group of ten and quickly put Pino's on our regular OCMD rotation. Fast forward to 2026, and our group of five wanted a few smaller specialty pies delivered after a full day of drinking our way along Coastal Highway. Pino's delivered in record time, and everything arrived ready to crush. The taco pizza and Buffalo chicken pizza were both excellent and disappeared quickly. If you are feeding a big beach house, the 28 inch pizza is hard to beat. If you have a smaller group, ordering a few specialty pies gives everyone something different to try. Pino's continues to be our reliable pizza night choice in Ocean City. Highly recommend!
