Squished, mangled pieces, frosting all messed up. For an event.

The food is good in a pinch. Grew up on their strip pizza and their cannolis are my favorite around. Do yourself a favor though, customer service is really important, it can make or break your whole day. The behavior by these people, minus the owner, was the wildest thing I've ever experienced. However, unless you want to get your head screamed off by the aunt and niece when they only give you part of an order, I don't recommend coming here. I placed a large order for assorted pastries--they gave me 1/3 of the order, and when I had to go all the way back and wanted to count the rest, I was screamed at for 10 minutes straight. The niece even suggested 'taking this outside' threatening me. For trying to count my order, that was already wrong to begin with. They then told me that it was my colleague's fault for not being given the right amount in the first place? They called the owner, who then spoke to me on the phone. He was extremely apologetic, saying that their behavior was unacceptable. I tried to tell him as well that the pastries were also all smooshed and looked awful too, but there wasn't anything to be done and I wasn't going to stay in there any minute longer than necessary. Lunch might be fine, but I don't recommend ordering anything larger or for a nice event, it won't look right. And if you don't want to be screamed at or blamed for messing up your own order, then probably skip as well. There are much more professional places around.

Love this bakery. It's family owned and family maintained, with lots of local kids working behind the counter as well. Everything is homemade and delicious. I've never had the pastries here, only the pizza and bread, but one day I will make my way through the lovely looking sweets. They're trying new things all the time; for example, there is a Thai peanut pizza today. One of my fav items is the pizza chips - round little bakery style pizzas with thin and crispy crust with or without grated cheese. I can eat them like potato chips, so good. The food isn't fancy by any means but if you're looking for authentic Italian family fare, then this is the place. FYI, there's a $10 credit card minimum.

Dessert is going to be GOOD!

Friendly staff and great pizza. I accidentally ordered the wrong pizza for my kid and they couldn't…read moreeat it, but they made the right one for my kid even though it was my mistake. That's really great service and the prices were super reasonable.

From the outside, Sako's Pizza looks like it could already be a franchise…read more The branding is polished. The building is sharp. Everything is so well put together that you expect something a little more corporate. Then you walk inside. And it feels like a neighborhood pizza place. Friendly people. Easy hospitality. Families at the tables. A big menu over the counter. The kind of place where people seem comfortable being there. It is also ridiculously clean. Not "clean for a pizza place." Hospital clean. The floors, the tables, the glass, the counter. Everythin Then the pizza showed up. At first glance, it looks familiar enough. Nicely browned cheese. Pepperoni with some crisp around the edges. A substantial-looking outer crust. Spotless. Then the pizza arrives. Flip the slice over. That is where Sako's really starts explaining itself. The bottom is beautifully brown, with darker patches from the pan and enough crunch that you hear it when you bite through. Sako's follows some of the Greek pizza playbook without really eating like Greek pizza. The pan. The browned cheese. The substantial-looking crust. The sturdy slice. All of that feels familiar. Then you bite into it and the comparison starts falling apart. The crust is much lighter than it looks. Airy inside. Crunchy underneath. Crunchy around the outside edge. Really satisfying on both sides. It has structure without weight. That crust is the foundation of the pizza. But the sauce is every bit as good. Herby, flavorful and really tasty, with enough personality to stand right beside that crust instead of disappearing underneath the cheese and pepperoni. That is where Sako's really separates itself for me. The crust gives the pizza its structure. The sauce gives it its voice. Sako's uses a mozzarella and cheddar blend. I am not much of a cheese guy, so I am not going to pretend I sat there trying to break down exactly what each cheese was doing. What I can tell you is that the sauce, cheese and pepperoni all play nice together. Nothing is fighting for attention. Nothing gets buried. It borrows some of the structure of Greek pizza without becoming the style. That is the best way I can describe it. One other thing caught my attention before I ordered. The gluten-free options are hard to miss here. They are featured prominently on the menu, and there are gluten-free brownies, brookies and other snacks sitting right at the counter. I asked about the gluten-free crust because they clearly are not treating that part of the menu like some obligation they had to check off. That tells you something about the place too. Sako's describes what they make as hand-stretched pan pizza, and that description makes more sense once you see the bottom of the slice and feel that contrast between crunch and airiness. The gluten-free crust is more of a South Shore bar pie. Crackery, crunchy, thin. A lot of pizzas are built from the top down. This one feels built from the bottom up. The crust is the foundation. The sauce is just as strong. Everything else knows its role. And the whole thing tastes like it belongs together.

We gave this place a try while in Cranston. I was actually surprised at how tiny it is considering…read moreI've been to Spike's Junk Yard Dogs when it was in this location years ago. Needless to say, they don't need the space to make some excellent pizza. We shared a few different slices. My favorite was the Detroit style with the pepperoni, hot honey, and seasoned mozzarella! We got a slice that we didn't order, as a girl misheard us, but it ended up being a very good slice of Detroit. It had orange chicken on it. I had never had anything like that, but it was absolutely delicious! The Florentine with the tomatoes was delicious. The sauce that's used on the pizza is so good and all the crust were cooked perfectly. Even my wife, who doesn't like Detroit style Pizza said that the flavor of the dough was different than the other ones I've had her try at other places around Rhode Island in Massachusetts. I'm in need of Rhode Islander so I did buy a bag of the pizza chips and I absolutely love them. You have to like bakery pizza that I like these. The girls at the register were absolutely amazing and more friendly than most pizza places I've been in recently. They even joked with us when we sat and ate, which we really appreciated it. I love the decor of the chandeliers, it had such a nice touch. The only thing that I didn't love was how loud the music was. We couldn't hear each other across the small table, but that subjective anyway. If I'm around Cranston, I will definitely go back here and I would recommend that everyone else gives it a try.

As a RHORI fan, I knew I had to stop by this spot. I love that they offer a huge selection of…read moredifferent styles of pizzas. You are able to get a pie or order by the slice. Up to you if you want to dine-in or takeout. It's right next door to a high school so there were a lot of teens when I visited. It's an intimate space with a few booths if you want to dine-in. They have a gender neutral single stall bathroom in the space. It's located in a strip mall so there is a lot of free parking out front. I enjoyed the motor city roni slice. The staff was really friendly too. It was a fun stop.

Maria's Pizza And Wings on Pontiac Ave in Cranston is a neighborhood spot, the kind that's easy to…read moremiss if you don't already know it's there, tucked in and going about its business without asking for your attention. Because I know about this little hidden gem already, I was driving home after a long day and I wasn't going to pass it without stopping. This is what I'd call emotional support pizza. Not a pilgrimage. Not a revelation. Just a really solid pie from a place that knows what it's doing and doesn't need to make a fuss about it. Pepperoni and black olive for me today. The crust had that chew you want, cooked through, some golden brown color on the bottom. The sauce was rich tomato with garlic running underneath the cheese, present enough to know it's there without fighting for attention. The olives were generous and distributed like someone thought about where they landed, not just dropped from a height. The pepperoni is cupped and charred slightly at the edges. The toppings-to-cheese ratio was right. It arrived fast and it arrived hot. This is what a revered neighborhood pizza place is supposed to be. Maria's does it. It's primarily takeout, four tables, busy foot traffic in and out the whole time I was there. They do good business and they know what their business is. I sat down anyway because I tend to be an iconoclast, and it was a fine visit. If you live nearby, you already know about this place. If you don't, that's between you and your neighborhood. Maybe you should move.

I am hooked on Maria's pizza. I stopped in as the are a contestant in the RI Food Fight's Lord of…read morethe Pies competition and got a small pizza with sausage. I ordered over the phone and was told it would be ready in 20 minutes. I walked into the shop twenty minutes later and it was ready. The staff was very courteous and the whole ordering/paying process was as it should be - easy! I took it home and it had just cooled enought to eat it. This is the type of pizza I love. A thinker crust, loaded with mozzarella, and a nice sauce that was not overwhelming. The sausage had a nice spice to it. (For the record, I am not a fan on New Haven style pizza, which seems to be popular in RI - this is not that. Nor is it New York style - which I do like BUT not over the style that Maria's serves.) I aslo added some wings to the order (this time spicy BBQ). Those were good as always. It also should be said that I had left over pizza and it reheated nicely! They now are my go to pizza place.
