    Kenneth C.

    I'd been wanting to try this place for months, since it's close to my work, but the many 1-star Yelp reviews scared me away. But, my coworker John - who is a blue-collar food connoisseur of sorts, and has made many good suggestions for my Yelp reviews - eats here often. Last week, he brought a pepperoni pizza from here back to the shop, and gave me a couple slices. I have to say, it tasted excellent! Actually, I liked Excellent's pizza better than pizza from Big Cheese! It was so good, that I went back to Excellent Pizza later that week, to get a small pepperoni pizza of my own. The crust is the perfect consistency, and the cheese, pepperoni and sauce all blend together in a delicious medley. Best of all, it did not give me heartburn. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because the cheese and toppings tend to slide off the pizza. I called my order ahead and went to pick it up. While I wouldn't describe the owner and his wife as warm, gregarious people, I also didn't find them rude, as other reviewers have described them. But, I'm not there to make friends, just to get delicious pizza. As for other reviewers' hygiene concerns, the kitchen appeared clean, and I don't care if they wear gloves or not, as hand-washing goes a long way. I bet a lot of food workers didn't wear gloves 30 years ago, and my generation somehow survived.

    I am so disgusted after 27 years of being a faithful customer. To serve food like this is absolutely disgusting. I am so upset by this. I was a loyal customer and bragged about this place. Not anymore I am done, and burnt onion rings. Their feta and spinach pizza is a joke--crumbles of feta. Today my steak sandwich fell apart because no one cares enough to toast the bread. I figured maybe an off day. Three weeks in a row is not an off day. DONE! Every chance I get to share a review, I will. Nothing will get done about this. The food tells you they don't care.

    The pizza is okay not the greatest, I would rate this place a 3.4 they make the food really quick and the ingredients taste pretty fresh. I am not a fan of the crust but chicken wings and Gyros are really good. One really disappointing thing about excellent pizza is that the customer service is horrible. The employees are very rude and always try to hang up on you fast while someone is ordering food. They are not friendly at all. If the customer service was better I'd definitely order food from here more often.

    Buffalo chicken pizza

    I grew up eating Excellent pizza The best! Delicious crust. I give 4/5 because overall the food is delicious .. but the costumer service could be a lil better .. even though its ALWAYS been like that we used to it. I ordered a LG Buffalo chicken pizza ($15) got told 15-20 mins .. got my pizza on time. LOVE this Buffalo sauce because it isnt vinegary at all! Perf amount of cheese Grilled chicken Light and crunchy crust!

    More like average pizza. Skimpy on the sauce, cheese lacking flavor and a little greasy. Crust & dough were good.

The crust had that perfect wood-fired char -- crispy on the outside, soft and chewy inside, with just the right amount of crunch around the edges. The clam chowder side was such a Rhode Island/New England experience. Creamy, savory, loaded with seafood flavor, and topped with fresh herbs and potatoes that gave true chowder vibes in pizza form. Honestly, you can't come to Providence and not try chowder in every form possible! The meat lovers side was bold, hearty, and stacked with toppings. Pepperoni curled perfectly at the edges, sausage was flavorful, and every bite had the perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and smoky meat flavor. The atmosphere was relaxed, modern, and perfect for casual dining with friends or family. Great food, great vibe, and definitely a spot worth revisiting while in Providence.

Unfortunately, I was very dissapointed in the large Margherita pie I ordered this time around. The dough was brittle, the cheese didn't taste all that fresh and the rest of the ingredients (sauce and spices) were just OK. It's always dissapointing when a restaurant lacks consistency and leaves you wondering what happened? Is it the cook at certain shifts, carelessness, different quality products? I don't know, but this place may be worth a try if they could output the product I had during my first visit. The pizza was dissapointing, but the wings were good. It tasted fresh, very crispy and hit the spot. The wings definitely saved the overall meal which is why I gave them a 3 overall, but the pizza was like a 2. The other stuff - I called in and was put on a long hold. The employee I spoke to was a apologetic about the wait and was overall pleasant. I've been inside this restaurant and it's quite small, so taking out may be a better option. -ODL Connect with me! IG & YouTube: @AOEAT

You walk into the space & the first thing you see is a gauntlet with swinging "axes" that you need to run through without getting hit! I kinda wish everyone had to do it to gain access but it is one of the many fun games/adventures from Level99. The special menu was $25 for a pizza & 2 beverages. Upon recommendation of our delightful server Kobe, we opted for the Hot Mess: ezzo cupping pepperoni, piri-piri sauce, fresnos, queso fresco. Pizza is Detroit style & the edges were perfection, I could have used a bit more sauce but the piri-piri drizzle was fire. We both had a glass of wine. We were in the mood for a nightcap. I selected a coffee stout, Jolly Woodsman by Banded Brewing. Our server asked if I wanted a taste before ordering a glass, I was happy that I took him up on the offer - it wasn't my favorite. I was laughing with him that hubby & I are beer weirdos - we like the lightest & the darkest beers. He offered to bring me a taste of the Night Shift Brewing's Imperial stout, Dynasty. And along with that, he also brought the two lightest Night Shift Brewing beers. We loved all three of them! I would definitely go back for the pizza & the beer but the games are calling my name!
