    Margherita
    Talitha G.

    I ordered a Margherita pizza based on photos I saw online. I added pepperoni to half of it. I will say it's a pretty good pizza. Thin crust, good red sauce, fresh ingredients. I appreciate that it was not sloppy. It is definitely one of the better pizza places I have tried locally. Now I did order delivery so the unfortunate part was it wasn't hot or even warm. But with that being said could have been the driver. I would def order from. Here again as far as pizza goes.

    Francesco's Pizzeria was a stop for the 6th Annual Search for the Best Scoop Shop RI with RI Food Fights. When we saw this stop, we were very excited that a pizzeria was also serving ice cream. There were a few flavors to select. I chose a scoop of the tiramisu gelato. It was very refreshing and light. Since we walked in, the pizza smelled so good and purchased 2 slices. They have earned awards such as the most instagrammable pizza, most delicious pizza, and most creative pizza. I saw they have a General Tso's pizza which has General Tso Chicken, Roasted Red Peppers, Scallions. Thought that was unique. I had their Classic Pepperoni-Red Pizza, Pepperoni and my husband ordered a slide of the Buffalo Chicken-Shredded Buffalo Chicken, Scallions, Mozzarella. The crust was crunchy and crisp and it wasn't too saucy. This was delicious. There is street parking available. In front of the pizzeria there are a few seats with a middle stand for sharing. These were so cool and efficient. Service was great. It was just 1 woman managing the phones, customers inside, and managing the orders. I would definitely come back for their slice & ice deal which is 99¢ slice of cheese pizza with your purchase of any ice cream.

    This place is terrible. I went here based on great reviews from critics and Barstool.. what a mistake. The pizza was undercooked and the extra toppings added was minimal.. we're talking a large pepperoni pizza with 6 pepperoni. That's just cheap/lazy and irritating. The real negative here was the woman working the register on Saturday 4/27 at 4:30. Major attitude for no reason and told me to hurry up and pay so she could take her break. Are you serious? Who talks to people like that. For all potential patrons considering this place.. hard pass

    Forget 7.9, this place is 10.0. Pizza was outstanding, prices reasonable, service fast and friendly. Location convenient. Couldn't ask for more. Stephanie from behind the counter was even so nice as to track down an extra shirt from the recent celebrity appearance. I was up in Providence for a basketball game and this detour made my day.

    A decent pizza. Cooked well, a nice sweet sauce and a good cheese blend. Street parking only, and a cramped interior. People were friendly and curious. One knock, would be the codes on the website for discounts not working.

    If you came here thinking about getting the General Tso's Pizza... DO IT This was hands down one of the best pizzas me and my girl have had in a while. We ordered about 30 minutes before closing and it was one of the best decisions we made. No flop on the pie, beautiful under carriage and the toppings were solid. Not normally a fan of a white pizza but the general tso's sauce took this pie to the next level. Will we order again? Absolutely. We've tried a lot of pizza spots in Providence and have been somewhat disappointed but not here. Absolutely ranked on my top 5 pizzerias.

    I ordered a four layer cake, but I guess they were out so they sent me this little tiny sliver of a torte and charge me the same price. when I say it was a slivwe got it was about six bites.

    We wanted to pick up some apps to eat while we were watching the game on Sunday, and were in the area so we stopped in to order something to go and ate a ready made slice from the case while we were waiting. This location is to go/takeout only - which was perfect for us. While we were waiting, we saw several Uber eats pickups happen, which means that other people had the same idea too. I had the General Tso's slice - which was both sweet and savory and my kids a pepperoni and cheese slice. The pizza is a thin crust and there was a good amount of toppings on them. The wings were well seasoned and juicy and the mozzarella sticks were crunchy on the outside and gooey on the inside - just how we like them! While this spot isn't our usual neighborhood pizza place, it was very good and we were happy to have had the chance to try them out today.

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.

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!

We ordered garlic knots and two pizzas--a Margherita and a Coney Island. Our server even repeated the order back and specifically asked if we had any special requests, such as. getting the pizzas cooked to well done. I requested "medium," yet both pizzas arrived overcooked and marked "well done" on the bill. The garlic knots were the highlight--perfectly cooked and loaded with garlic. However, the pizzas were a letdown. The Margherita didn't have nearly enough fresh mozzarella, and the other pizza had the wrong toppings. When we received the bill, we saw that they served us a "Cyclone" instead of the Coney Island we ordered. We were hungry and had already waited so long that we didn't bother sending them back. At $28 per pizza, the experience at Napolitano's isn't worth it. Serving premium-priced food on paper plates feels cheap, and while we smelled fresh popcorn from the machine on the bar, none was ever offered. The live band was a nice touch, but between the slow service and consistent errors, I don't see myself returning.
