Personal pizza
Sarah L.

Tried this place in Uptown and it was surprisingly good for a pizza joint! My pizza had peppers and tomatoes on it! Dough on pizza was made fresh and I really enjoyed my little bite to eat! You get complimentary red sauce, pepper flakes and grated Parmesan cheese at the bar. The tables with benches were made super sturdy. The music and art made me feel like I was right in Italy. My fiancé got an Italian hard seltzer and it was perfectly sweet and went well with the pizza. The restaurant was clean and service was quick!

Wood fired ovens!!
Harrell B.

Get ready for some beautifully crafted authentic wood fired pizza folks!! This place is a little trip to Naples. Service is excellent, gelato available, but it's really all about the pizza. Simple indoor seating and very casual. Wine and beer available. They do takeout as well.

Inside

They already have a high star rate but this place should have a fully perfect high 5 star rate. The server that I placed the order with was seriously perfect and kind. And she helped me pick which pizza I ordered. The chefs and the one that delivered my pizza to my table were all hard workers with a great vibe too. The feel inside is great in here. The whole palace was good and the pizza was honestly equal to my favorite unique pizza ever. If you want a boring plain pizza go to one of the plain pizza places but if you want a wonderful delicious pizza and have a good seat with some good tvs playing, come here for sure.

Cannoli and a triple chocolate cake
Sadie S.

This place was amazing, fast, plenty of seating and the food was phenomenal. We had our puppies and there was outdoor seating, this place worked out perfect for us passing through.

Siena
Emily L.

Ordered for take out and even when not fresh out of the oven, this pizza was incredible. I got the Siena and didn't realize how big it would be, and makes $21 a STEAL!! The pizza was huge. The pepperoni was the best I'd ever had and the crust was thin, crispy, and soft all at the same time. The cannolis are incredible too and the tiramisu! I'll be back soon to try it fresh!

We came after a long day of travel. We were able to walk here from our hotel. Nice. We ordered the Siena pizza. It tasted amazing but was a bit too greasy for us. Probably because of all the pepperoni. But the staff was very nice and we would definitely return. Just maybe go for a veggie or caprese pizza next time

Picture doesn't do justice. Palermo is excellent!
Paul C.

This restaurant is the most authentic Italian pizzeria experience in town. They make Napoletana style pizzas and their attention to detail is outstanding. The signature of a Naples-style is the chewy dough, sweet tomato sauce, and mozzarella cheese. I had the Palermo, and it was amazing. Sausage, sweet red peppers, caramelized onions, San Mariano tomato sauce and mozzarella. The pie had a thin bottom and puffy bordering crust; the outside had a little char from the oven. The toppings are perfectly portioned. They were fresh and tasty, and they complemented the remarkable crust. I also tried the cannolis and they were as good as Mike's Pastry's at the North End in Boston. I was blown away. This place is the real deal, and may be the BEST pizza in Birmingham.

Cannolis
Linh C.

Loved the fresh ingredients on a perfectly cooked pizza that has just enough crust for me to dip in the hot marinara sauce available as a serve-yourself. I didn't have room to sample any gelato but I got some cannolis to go. Both the pistachio cannoli and the chocolate chips cannoli were perfect to me - I prefer a whipped Creme/ricotta cheese filling, in a crisp shell, with powdered sugar sprinkled on top. Personal pizzas are available 11am-4pm. Really good Neapolitan pizza. I'll be back soon for more pizza, gelato, and cannoli.

Dessert cooler
Elena P.

A nice set up, a fairly roomy and casual dining area, a cooler with bottled beverages, a wide open kitchen where you can watch all of the action, and a cute gelato and dessert cooler. It doesn't have a lot of character as it is a strip mall with some Italian memorabilia on the wall. The location is convenient for me so that is a big plus. I really wanted to give 5 stars, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. The pizza was good, but not great. We had a Palermo pie. The ingredients used are mainly quality. However, it was not the highest quality of crust. Truly elite authentic crust with proper rise and a nice crust with crispy bits - like the best of the best, doesn't leave you feeling heavy afterwards. I'm not sure if it's the flour itself or the recipe, but the crust wasn't quite right in my opinion. This pizza would be very very average somewhere like NYC, though many in Birmingham will find it above average. The Friday evening when I went it was very very busy with a full staff working hard in the kitchen and we waited a little under an hour for a pie to go. The staff was so kind and friendly and the setup was good. If the crust was improved I could add another star, but the pizza was just really missing something. I would also like to see some different topping options. I think people may be overrating it to some extent because of the hype. All in all I hope to see them succeed. I may try them again for lunch and see if my opinion is the same after a second visit. As it stands I can think of at least 3 other pizza places I prefer locally.

Pizza ovens!
Lynn B.

I still haven't tried their pizza, but go regularly for cannoli and gelato. Best in the area!

It gives a great vibe for either a work dinner, a date night, owl or dinner with friends! It's fun and swanky but not over the top. They have a really attractive bar and they have a pizza kitchen that is open, which is always a cool touch. I try to handful of appetizers and I've got to recommend both the jerk cauliflower as well as the brussels sprouts and the Caesar salad was delicious as well. Also, the blistered Hungarian peppers are a must order if you'd like sausage! The meal that I had both times because it was that good was the spicy lamb rigatoni. I might just go back next week and get it again. I like that they have a wide variety of options whether you're looking for a gluten-free meal or something carb heavy like pizza or pasta, but they also have options to fit a variety of budgets from a casual dinner and a burger to more expensive entrées. The servers are very kind and are definitely educated in their wine and food offerings and very hospitable. Since this is located on Morris, a lot of people think parking is difficult down there, but apparently there is a parking lot in the back where you're able to get your ticket validated. I know some of my friends wish they would have known this before. I'll definitely be back and recommend this spot to others wanting a good meal!

We both love food and…read morecocktails....so we spent everyday going to the best restaurants we could find...within a manageable budget. I think the most expensive meal we had was $240.00 which included entrees and wine. Worth every penny...anyway. We stopped in to Wooden City for a couple of appetizers and a glass of wine. We ordered the peel n eat shrimp and the burrata w/ bread pudding! The food was so good we failed to grab a pic. I can absolutely say the experience rates in the top 4 meals I've had in my 66 years on the planet! I was able to capture the beautiful pour of wine we had. Guys come see them! You'll enjoy it for sure. The ladies sitting next to us ordered two entrees each. They ate one and had one boxed to go...that's gotta tell ya something! Hats off to the TEAM at Wooden City! I'll be visiting again in August .....can't wait!!

First of all, I just want to say how much I appreciate that they have their own parking lot. It is small and sometimes difficult to get out of, but I'll take any parking I can get in Five Points. It's very close to UAB, which is also convenient for hungry students like me. The food itself is delicious! I would really recommend getting one of their specialty pizzas as opposed to just a plain cheese or pepperoni. My personal favorite is the Great White. It's got an olive oil and garlic base and includes different cheeses like ricotta and sheep's milk feta. I believe there are also tomatoes and onions on it as well. It's such a good combination of different flavors. Overall, I haven't had a bad experience yet at Mellow, and would recommend others check it out.

Today, I have the honor of being the first guest to eat at Salvatore's today. They opened at 10:30…read moreand I arrived at 10:34. I was greeted by the front employee, who was wiping down the final tables before service started. I viewed the menu and saw they offered pizza in different sizes and toppings. They also served pasta, including lasagna, chicken alfredo and spaghetti. I learn that the front employee's name was Solomon. He proved excellent customer service to me, answering all of my questions. He even pulled up a special menu on the TV for me to see that changes every day of the week, serving pizza by the slice instead of a whole pie. I ordered the Spaghetti with mushroom meat sauce, which included garlic bread and a side salad. I also ordered 2 pepperoni pizza with a drink. My total was right at $22 dollars for everything. To me, this was a bargain to get so much food as well. The setting of the table featured red and white tablecloths, which made it feel like a real Italian pizzeria. There are about 30-35 tables, with bar stool seating areas for single guest to enjoy the Birmingham view. My food took about 12 minutes to come out, and Solomon bagged everything nice and neatly before I made it to the counter. I went back to the stool seating to enjoy my food. Once he realized I was dining in, he brought over a parmesan cheese shaker for me to use with my food. This was top tier for me! Very observative. The Meal: I can tell you now that the portion sizes are humorous! The pizza is large thin, hand tossed slices that filled the box of a small pizza. The pasta was enough to feed three people, so they give you a well amount for your money. The pizza had to be eaten folded, which I enjoyed a lot. The pizza sauce was full of flavor, didn't seem like anything out of a can. The slices were cheesy, saucy and not overly greasy with a perfect crust. Some of the pizza I've enjoyed in Birmingham. The spaghetti mushroom meat sauce pasta was very meaty and full of mushrooms. The mushrooms could have been sauteed more before adding to the sauce. As the pasta was full of meat, the sauce could have been more. to cover the bottom of the noddle as well. The garlic bread bursted with buttery, garlicy herb flavor and was super airy and fluffy, not like hard toast baked to plinko chips consistency. The salad was super fresh and simple. The cheese was thick, hand shredded mozzarella cheese with fresh romaine lettuce and a slice of tomato. The ranch dressing was not my favorite, but the house vinaigrette was 10/10! I could drink that dressing; it was so good. I was able to wash it all down with various Coca-Cola fountain drinks or fresh brewed tea (Sweet or Unsweet). Coke Zero was an option, which made me happy! Overall, this visit earned a solid 4.5/5 and I would patronize with them again. Customer service as 5/5, thanks to Solomon. The chefs were hard at work the entire time. By the time I left, 75% of the tables were taken and mostly everyone was eating already too. Check them out if you're in the area! -DASC

It was then and now my favorite pizza place in Birmingham. I am from New York and the pizza reminded me of home. I only found out a few weeks ago that this "Downtown" location even existed. I would usually take the 25 minute drive up 280 for my pizza. I have no idea how I missed this. Food: The sauce is the key. Weiher on the pizza or on the pasta. We always order a Meatball Pizza and it has been very consistent. My son and I had a Medium Meatball pizza and Cheese Ravioli Parm which comes with Garlic Bread. Service: The service is simple. You order at the counter, and they bring it to your table. Just like every other Salvatore's location. The manager was OUTSTANDING. I asked for the crust to be a little more done, and it was PERFECT. Ambiance: Super Casual and perfect for the food they make. Lots of table and for the most part very clean. Pizza is a personal thing. What I like, other don't or have their own special place. Now that I know Salvatore's is so close to my home, actually walking distance, I will eat there more often. As a matter of fact, we are ordering for pick up tonight. I don't use delivery services unless I am desperate. Eat Well, Drink well and stay Healthy.
