    As far as local pizza places go FP is very good. The staff are friendly and the service is quick. The Pizza is good with a medium thickness crust plenty of cheese and usually a ton of toppings. I had sausage and mushroom last night. The sausage is sliced thin like pepperoni not chunks. There were so many mushrooms- awesome. The sauce is on the sweeter side - so I add a little Tabasco. I always take it to go, they have plenty of tables if you want to sit there.

    First stop on an Aquidneck island round-trip excursion for the Rhode Island food fights 'Lord of the pies' on a bright sunny Sunday. Staff helpful and accommodating provided us with two small cheese pizzas which looked good and tasted good but overall were a pretty straightforward and regular house of pizza fare.

    Decent pizza. Plentiful flavorful sauce. Nice cheese, cooked well. Good prices. 4% charge on cards is a drawback though.

    Famous has always been hit or miss. This time was an absolute hit! We ordered pizza and a hot grinder. The pizza was perfect, hot, not soggy, full of flavor. I doubt I could have asked for a better pizza from Famous. The grinder, which is often soggy, was perfect as well! If they were this good every time this place would truly be famous!

    Fresh taste good. Staff were very friendly and quick service. I highly recommend Classic Pizza

    Very disappointed. I've been eating famous for 50 years, the changes that were made are not good. I will no longer eat famous pizza.​

    Always good food here! Always super clean. It's classic food. Great portion sizes. It's a little slow, but worth the wait.

    The North End Pizzeria is truly one of those local gems that makes Portsmouth feel like home…read more Locally owned by the same family for years, this place has been a staple in my life for as long as I can remember. From childhood pizza parties to grabbing lunch at PHS, North End has always been part of our community and our memories. The food is consistently excellent. I love their salads, and the pizza never disappoints. Growing up, my go-to was the chicken parm calzone (still a classic) but after having to go gluten free, I was thrilled to find that their gluten free crust is hands down the best around. I still get to enjoy my favorites, especially the buffalo chicken pizza with bacon and a side of bleu cheese. The BBQ chicken pizza is another must-have. The staff is always friendly and smiling, which makes every visit even better and delivery is prompt with food that arrives hot every single time. That kind of consistency is hard to find and so appreciated. Thank you, North End Pizza, for staying true to who you are and for being a reliable, beloved business in our small community. Portsmouth is lucky to have you. Excited to see what is next for you!

    Used to love this place when I was in high school. Ordered when visiting my parents recently. They…read moretold me I would be disapointed its not the same. I guess i shoulda listened. Idk what they are doing now but pizza was gross, cheese was not mozzarella ill tell you that. For over $20 for a large it should at least be good or you might as well just get dominos. I work in food and id be embarrassed to serve that. Felt sick to my stomach after eating. Should have let this place stay a memory. Delivery lady was all pissy too, i tipped almost 10 and its only on middle rd. After i went to see reviews i read the manager was filming in the bathroom too which makes me glad i got delivery i guess even though the driver was rude. Overall i would avoid this place as its overpriced junk food. Theres a lot of good food on the island and this just isnt it

    UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT! So I had been this to this place a…read morecouple times over the last 2 years, and as a Brazilian I'd say the food was mediocre, pizza was often times too well done. But went back recently as we were craving something closer to home, and let me tell you - it was worth it! The quality of the food has gone up significantly and more closely resembles Brazilian homemade foods. The pizza is now superb and full of toppings, baked just right. The soups are to die for and remind me of home so badly! The new manager has a spot they've run for years down on the cape, you can tell they know what they're doing with their food. There is a tiny bit of a wait some days as far as getting your food, so go with time to chat and hang. Small pizzas are around $14, large are about $24 but feed 4 people well. When I say they are FULL of stuff on top, I mean it. These are specialty pizzas though, so the price resembles that. Regular meals/plates are on average $14. Prices as of 07/2023 Service is very friendly! Atmosphere is a bit of a bust as far as decorations but we were told they'll be getting a facelift soon. Very excited! They have a touch tunes machine which makes it fun. Open til 2am on Saturdays are a plus. Parking lot can become busy on a weekend but does just fine on weekdays.

    1st attempt: Tried getting one pizza to go and was told it would be 1.5hrs wait…read more 2nd attempt: went to the restaurant with my friend. Got seated and no one came to our table for anything, even drinks for 20mins. It's a small place. Def no way to not see people w nothing at their table that long. We walked out and no one said a thing to us. Side note, this place blasts music at 12:30 at night. I live nearby but not super close. Can hear bass thumping as we speak. Mind you they are in a residential area. Truly hope they close down. Terrible.
