There is plenty of indoor and outdoor season, with a full bars with TVs as well. There are two distinct lines, one for whole pies and one for by the slice. They also have a handful of combos which is the way we went. We got the pepperoni special (5/5) which was our favorite. The sausage and pepper (3/5) was solid but nothing special. Overall, the dough/crust was a perfect balance of crunch, chew, and substance. Already itching to go back and try other pizzas!

I should have just stayed with the pepperoni. To be honest, I was expecting better. This day old dried out thin crust was a sad excuse for a pizza slice. it should have been steamed then thrown through their reheat oven cycle. Because it was day old dry. The potential was there... but the execution after sitting out all day... I mourn that pizza. Thrown on a paper plate by a teenager, the service wasn't much more than a grunt for a credit card. And the garage like atmosphere wasn't off putting, but I could smell the used oil in the concrete floors. I'm told the location in Alexandria is a better store. But yeah, not a great first impression.

A lot of self service here where you're expected to order at the counter and find your own plates, cutlery, and water. New york style pizza is aspirational at best--false advertising at worst. Not sure what part of the thick hard crust was new york style but I wouldn't come back for it. The indoor seating is loud and you might end up having to share.

Highly recommend coming here for lunch as well since they do offer some pizza by the slice options.

We've been coming to Luciano's for years, in large part because my husband loves their pizza and we…read morelike supporting a local Oakton restaurant. Unfortunately, after tonight, we won't be back. We asked to sit outside, as we have many times before, but the manager, Luz, initially told us they could not accommodate a party larger than four outside. After we explained that we had done so numerous times, she said she would make an exception if our youngest sat in a highchair, which was perfectly fine. We ordered appetizers and pizza and brought a bottle of wine, happily agreeing to the $25 corkage fee. The problem came when we received our bill and noticed an extra drink charge. Our young son had initially ordered lemonade and then changed it to club soda. We were never told that simply changing his drink would result in being charged $3.55 for each one. Had we known, we obviously would not have switched it. This was a very small amount of money, and that's really the point. When we politely questioned the charge, our server apologized but told us the manager required her to charge for both drinks. When we asked to speak with the manager, instead of simply resolving a $3.55 issue, Luz began telling us about the "accommodations" she had already made for us by allowing us to sit outside. When I explained that we live locally and come to Luciano's regularly, her response was, "Honey, everybody's local." She ultimately said she would "make an exception" and remove the $3.55 charge. At that point, I told her not to bother. Losing longtime customers over $3.55 is one thing. Speaking to them dismissively while doing it is another. There are plenty of places we can go for pizza. We continued choosing Luciano's because my husband genuinely loves it and because we wanted to support a neighborhood restaurant. It's a shame that such a minor issue--and particularly the manager's handling of it--turned a place we've enjoyed for years into one we have no interest in returning to.

Our favorite music venue in the entire DMV is back with a new food enterprise and a very cool…read moreoutdoor 'concert' area. JJ has always sported a simple menu (their Chili is a dynamo!) and the new concept follows that model. Salad, fries (simple or loaded) and a great selection of pies. The salad is a must... plenty of Italian veggies, complemented with a healthy array of salami and cheese strips. A nice way to start a night. We did a half and half pie, tomato and cheese and pepperoni. Thin crust and well baked it had a good combo of crunch and chew. The beer was cold and the specialty drinks priced right. Other places that bring the great music dont pay this much attention to the food, but they do here. At the end of the day though, it is the music, the community that turns out for it and the icing is the food. Check out one of their 'benefit concerts' while you can. They are terrific.

We went with the VIP Board Room Lunch which for $17.95 per person included assorted sandwich platters, salad, chips, fruit salad, and a dessert tray. I sent an email request online and was contacted by a manager via phone to coordinate the details. School lunch times are ridiculously early and the staff came in an hour earlier than usual to make sure our order was ready to go by 10:15 am. Is that service or what? Everything was packaged beautifully so it was easy to serve, and the staff was so impressed by the quality of the subs and salads. Platters were plentiful and guests were able to go back for seconds which was amazing. Two small recommendations for next time: 1) Make sure to specify that the dessert tray is properly labeled. There were a few items with surprise nuts in it which could have been an issue if not spotted. 2) The catering menu mentioned that fruit salad would be served with the meal -- we got a few boxes of bananas instead which is a bit misleading.

It was much appreciated. As for the food it was hit and miss. Our husbands had the short rib raviolis and-although it was flavorful, there was not enough meat inside the raviolis nor were there enough raviolis to justify the price tag. Since the sauce was extremely flavorful I forced my husband to share some of the skimpy sauce to dip my pizza crust on it. Luckily the guys had enough of the wonderful fried mozzarella and bread to not be grumpy. One tip that our whole party agreed on was that the sauce was better suited if it was paired with chunks of lobsters instead of of the stuffed short rib raviolis. I was happy with size of my thin crust pizza and it was way more than I could eat. However, I am not sure if I was actually ok with how the ingredients were divided jn the quarter a fourth of the pizza contained olives ,another fourth was the mushrooms, ,another fourth was the prosciutto and for the life of me I could not remember the fourth ingredient. I'm still ponedering whether I am a fan of this. My friend had the Marguerite pizza and she was extremely satisfied with it. As to the place itself, it's nothing fancy, it's just your typical pizza place in a strip mall. It's just ok. One thing I noticed about it is the dim lighting, but to be fair it's a normal complaint for most eating establishments. We all had to break out our IPhone flashlights to read the menu. I wish most eateries would have a dimmer switch by your table so that when you are ordering, there is sufficient lighting as you read the menu and when done can be adjusted to mood lighting. I noticed most of the upper forties and up patrons did the same thing as us when ordering.

Surviving a move to a location in desperate need of signage, plus the pandemic, this jewel of Vienna survives. Unfortunately they don't sell individual slices anymore, it's just one size. On the plus side they have a great dining room and ample parking. Beverages are bottled coke products, gone is the fountain and booths. The pizza is New York thin crust excellent. Great undercarriage. Little grease draining off with pepperoni and sausage. The sausage is fairly salty though. It's hard to fall, it's a good place for pizza. The taste is not what I remembered, it's been a while since I've been here, but it's good pizza. One major change: Signage. Something outside that points the way, and a drink menu inside. If they are going to have a dining area, fill it out a little. Encourage people to eat instead of just takeout.
