    Personal white pizza
    Sara K.

    20 years ago, I worked somewhere that frequently served us Franco's. I never forgot how delicious their pizza was! However, I never lived nearby so never got it on my own. I decided to order tonight and was looking forward to it. I got a medium cheese pizza (to relive), and a white pizza (to try). I have to be honest and say the cheese pizza was nothing at all like it used to be. I could tell by looking at it as well as taking my bite. It missed the mark for me, and so did the white pizza. I see the business owner is responding to reviews which I applaud and wish I were leaving a 5 star review. I cannot speak to anything else as I had my food delivered through DoorDash.

    Ordered the fries for the first time and was shocked. A small order fries cost almost $4. They had very little flavor and I was lucky if there was 25 fries in all.

    Hardly any cheese & burnt

    We've been coming here for a long time & it's usually good but this time pizza was horrible it looked as though they took a cooked cheese pizza & added pepperoni &?rebaked it or should I say burn it pepperoni wasn't done like usual. The wings were great!

    Pepperoni slice. Very impressive for late night

    Craving wings so ordered a late night snack. Wasn't sure about the flavors since no descriptions/pics on here. Opted for Jamaican jerk bbq. The Jamaican is ok; spicier than a hot wing. I would describe it as a honey base with a lot of firey spice. Not so much bbq-y like I imagined. I personally wouldn't probably get again, just due to heat. Would like to try the Nashville hot and the dry Cajun that they offer.

    20 wings, hot

    Might be the best "pizza joint" wings in the Buffalo area. Super crispy, plenty of flavor in the sauce but could've been a bit spicier. Their housemade bleu cheese is excellent as well Small inside but a little patio with some picnic tables to eat on outside.

    Cheese and Pepperoni Pizza
    Kimberley A.

    6/11/22 Ordered delivery online. The details said 1-1.5 hours. It came sooner than 1 hour, which was very surprising. We were happy about that! Cheese & Pepperoni Pizza 9/10. dough was cooked fully through and was still fluffy. Slightly messy (as expected), I love the sweeter sauce that they use. When you leave the pizza out overnight, it's still just as good the next morning! The pizza was not cut very evenly though, we got the medium, so 12 slices, but it was cut into a little bit larger slices so it was more like 9 slices and 3 slim child size slices. (That's why my rating is a 9). It was only being shared between 2 people so not an issue for us, but might be an issue for someone who has a few more guests. I posted a photo of the size difference. Garlic Parm Wings 9/10. We ordered extra crispy. They actually were crispy when we got them. Our wing box had a little sticker on it saying they can't guarantee crispiness after the delivery time (photo posted), which I appreciated. There's lots of times I've ordered wings extra crispy from other places and they were just so soggy and not very good. Garlic parm sauce was not bad, it only really stuck to one side of the wing. I think it could have been more garlicy and parmy also (that's why I gave a 9). I like a lot of flavor and coating so that I get it with every bite!

    Side salad just as big as the box!!

    Not a hack and an amazing review . Purchased the lunch special online, personal pizza and salad. Literally 5 stars I and debate the food, service, or price everything was top tier. I also purchased this lunch special on the app after 6pm, which is crazy but golden. 5 stars is needed based on taste, quality, time, etc. Francos will be my go to too when in need of authentic Buffalo pizza. I did customize for extra sauce and more cook. Expectations were made thank you so much. On top of making a bomb ass side salad. Franco's lets you customize to a tee which is rare with online ordering and yes my food was done in the correct amount of time. Perfect experience.

    I'm always on the lookout, keeping my ear to the ground, for great pizza places in Buffalo…read more Although sometimes, I just want to try some place new. I had heard good things about Naked City Pizza, so I decided to take a break from my usual spots and give them a try and overall, I am very pleased! I called around 4:45pm on a Saturday and a gentleman took my order. He was courteous and friendly and said my order would be ready in 25-30 minutes. I arrived about 30 minutes later, easily finding a parking spot in their large parking lot, which is a mixture of pavement and dirt/gravel. Walking inside the shop, it's similar to most Buffalo pizza shops where it's relatively small and really about take-out, not for dining in. There were a few young guys working the counter and ovens, they were able to get me in and out quickly. From the limited time I was inside, the workers were friendly enough, they seemed to get along well. For dinner, I ordered a Quarter Sheet (6 slices) Steak and Three Cheese pizza but the gentleman who took my order over the phone put my order in as a Half Sheet (12 slices). They realized the mistake too late and gave me the Half Sheet for the Quarter Sheet price! I really do appreciate that, it's great customer service. I have half a pizza leftover for a quick dinner now! Naked City Pizza nails the traditional Buffalo-style with a doughier undercarriage and nice crispy, chewy crust. The dough was airy but it didn't seem as "heavy" as many other pizza places around Buffalo, but maybe I was just REALLY hungry. haha For their steak pizza, it seems like they use thicker pieces of steak, which was great, definitely felt more substantial. Most steak pizzas come topped with banana, hot, or sweet (bell/green) peppers, but Naked City uses roasted red peppers, which are sweet and have a more distinct flavor and softer texture - I was impressed, this paired VERY well with the other components! Along with them, there's also onions on top. The three cheeses used are cheddar, mozzarella, and parmesan, which of course are delicious. In addition to the roasted sweet peppers, the other component that I was surprised by was the white garlic sauce as the base. Steak pizzas around Buffalo vary from using a "hoagie oil/sauce" to just a huge variety of cheeses, no base sauce of any kind. I tend to stay away from white sauce on pizza as it's usually associated with garlic (I don't want my breath to be too... fragrant haha), but this wasn't too garlic-y, I didn't feel like I was "wearing it". I enjoyed the added creaminess the white sauce added to this pie. After six slices, I stopped myself and put the other half in the freezer. The six slices I had were delicious and filled me up nicely - The squares were cut nicely and they were plenty filling with tons of meat and cheese. I have a feeling these will reheat in the oven nicely. Looking at the prices, I was impressed too with how affordable Naked City Pizza is! All-in-all, I'm glad I gave Naked City Pizza a chance and had a great experience! The staff are friendly enough and quick, it's easy to get in and out quickly, and the pizza is traditional Buffalo-style so it's on the heartier end while being affordable. I look forward to ordering and trying a red sauce pizza from Naked City Pizza to see how sweet their sauce is.

I took my son there for lunch the other day, and we were warmly welcomed by the owner, who as it turns out, I knew from his previous restaurants stops. I hadn't seen him in about 15 years, but I recognized him instantly. Great service, polite and courteous staff, and delicious fresh food, are my initial reactions. I was surprised how good the San Franco pizza was! I also had a bowl of Pasta Fasola which was outstanding. I live in the city of Buffalo between Delaware and Elmwood and there are many pizza places around here, plus, I grew up on Bocce on Bailey pizza. However, the Forno Napoli pizza now ruins all others for me. I have never been to Italy, but I imagine this is what pizza is like there. Authentic and fresh. I'm taking all 3 of my kids back there tonight. Trying their salads and pasta as well. This place was very busy on a weekday at 4pm, so it is not a secret. It is also not cheap. You are paying for the quality of the food, and it is worth it.

It looked fantastic. But when I asked his rating, he gave it 6/10 stars. However, I wouldn't trust anyone who doesn't like cheese so take it with a grain of salt I was torn between the Bianca and Quattro pizza so I asked the kind man at the register for his suggestion; he said the Bianca is more popular so I went with that. I enjoyed my pizza, although I wouldn't order this one again. I do want to say that it is pricey but you will get a very big pie of great quality. The dough was excellent! It was actually my favorite part and I've never said that about any pizza! Atmosphere is extremely casual. There's fruit infused waters to have and you go and grab them yourself (back right corner). But you can order bottles of soda, alcohol, etc. Also in the back right corner are small pizza boxes for leftovers you can grab if needed. When you cash out, be sure to enter your phone number for the rewards program!

A few hours later the take home pie fared better - the beef pepperoni carried what probably would've been a bland cheese slice. But the chef salad was disappointing: i asked for everything to be put in with the dressing on the side - got a container of just lettuce and croutons with two packets of ranch dressing. They forgot the salad when i was called up for my takeout so possible they tossed out my order ticket as the cashier guy was friendly and diligent taking everyone's order but yeah. No bueno.
