    Stopped in for lunch with my co-worker and was greeted by Pete who was very friendly and engaging with us. We waited a few minutes for 2 slices and a few garlic knots. This slice was huge to me and it was very tasty. We had a bunch of oil on the bag and desk but guess that's expected with pizza. The place looked clean and staff were wearing mask. You either order ahead or come in and place your order but, it's not big enough to have a sit down lunch.

    Where do I begin? Put simply, this pizza I ordered tonight was a life changing experience as far as the world of food in my eyes is concerned. I'll begin by stating that I've never had Franco's Pizza before. I'm somewhat new to Philly and it was getting late when I'd realized I'd yet to eat. I opened a pizza app on my phone and the place that was still open was Franco's. Off the bat the food looked great. The Upside Down Pie caught my eye. It just looked great and when I seen the choice of toppings I could choose from I became excited. Not every pizza joint offers artichokes as a topping, and usually when they do you're in for a good experience. Nervous that maybe they would use soaking wet artichokes and ruin the pie I went for half only. They didn't do that. It was perfect. The driver had no problem with finding the address. They got here in perfect amount of time and he was kind and courteous. I dropped a nice tip because I was so impressed and appreciative of the excellent service. Keep in mind, I hadn't even eaten the pie yet, so that just made it all that much better. I got comfortable in my living room, put on some it's always sunny and enjoyed the wave of warmth that I was met with when I opened the box. The pie seemed to still resonate with the ovens flames. The cheese lifted with the first slice like it was straight out of a commercial. The sauce is a force to be reckoned with. Popping with a zest only the spirits of a thousand Italian Nonna's could achieve, the way it accompanies the smooth texture of the mozzarella, made it feel as if the pepperoni and the artichoke were two lovers dancing on a carpet of mozzarella and the sauce was the music that filled the air and the audience with awe. I'll end this review with some final thoughts. The pie was filling after only 2 slices and that means I get to relive this pleasure through leftovers. Win. Lastly...I've never had the Yelp App before nor have I ever left a food review before in the entirety of my existence. It was this Pizza that moved me so to download this app and leave this review. If only all food were this incredible, I'd make a career out of this. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you to the fine people who operate that establishment. I hope to come by in person one day and personally share my gratitude.

    Would just give 5 stars for the garlic knots they give you on the side. Wow, the cheese and bread were delicious. We tried the stromboli, the chicken parmesan sandwich, and some wings. First, the stromboli was long, stacked with toppings inside, and came with a tasty marinara dipping sauce. The dough was flavored and textured well and the cheese instead was perfect with it. Lasted for a while and was satisfying. The chicken parm sandwich was relatively cheaper than others in the area, and the chicken was juicy, perfectly fried and breaded, and there was a perfect amount of cheese on top to make it just like I wanted. The bread was a good texture too which was just an addition to a great meal. The wings were pretty equivalent in size (on the larger end), had a good sauce, and the bleu cheese they give is nice and creamy, not too chunky. Would and will order from here again, as the prices and quality is just right.

    Food- Very very good! Pasta, pizza, and shrimp were all impressive. Very large portions, we were stuffed afterwards! The only negative is they didnt take the skin tails off any of the shrimp.. so it became a sloppy buffalo/alfredo mess. Service- We ordered Uber eats and the wait time and service when we picked up were great. Atmosphere- I didn't go inside so cant speak to this but it looked super duper small local spot.

    The prices on their menu does not match when ordering food. If you have difference prices then you are trying to fool your customers.

The dish was delicious. I enjoyed my plate of sea-inspired tonnarelli nero. Bay scallops in crab ragu with fennel sofrito. Served with squid ink pasta that imparted a slight brininess. The pasta was cooked pangrattato style-- coated in panko bread crumbs and garlic. The dish had many flavors but they all came back to the theme. Cocktail prices and entree prices were very reasonable. They offer happy hour drinks and specials. Certainly a very good choice if you're in the area.

I personally would order this as my meal if I could. room temp, oily, good crunch to soft ratio. Judion Beans: good beans. they are on a similar wavelength as butter beans. honestly I get them for the table for the extra bowl of oil at the bottom to dip the crusts in. Creamy Oregano Salad: very interesting. small shaves of mushroom and fennel. very slight bitter taste. oddly addictive. the olives were my favorite part. i'd consider these friendly olives to those suspicious of olives. and the olives are cut in halves, so easy to pick out. so are the mushrooms. easy split for a table of four. beyond that i'd get two. *ADD ON* pickled chilies: very good. I suggest adding this to the pie. they are green, spicy, delicious, absolutely lovely. Corn Pizza: all together very delicious. my favorite part are the cherry tomatoes on top, which I would really like to be an add on option to other pies. they are the perfect flavor and size. i'm not particularly a tomato fan, especially whole. these are a rare exception. Classic Pizza?: solid, no notes. good as always. My only wish is that they offered a sauce to dip my crust in. they have very good crust, perfect ration of crispy and fluffy. just needs a sauce.

I loved the burrata! Super creamy and well complemented by the umami flavor of the mushrooms. Mains: Pizza Arrabbiata and Roasted Peppers Pizzas - Both were delicious! If you liked spicy, you'll love the arrabbiata. The cream and cherry pepper vinaigrette on the red pepper pizza was so perfectly savory with a hint of acidity. If you have to go with one, I vote for the red pepper pizza.

They didn't put on the parm-romano cheese and they didn't include the garlic dipping sauce. It just seemed like the running around not knowing who was going what led to oversight. There are tables to dine in, but it's not too much to expect not to inspect food to go to make sure it's as ordered. It seems like this location was just disorganized and the quality of the food suffered.

I chose the pizza counter so that I could watch staff making pizzas. As I was there on my own, the serving staff continued to stop by and check on me.

I chose a Neapolitan-style pepperoni pizza consisting of pepperoni, tomato sauce, mozzarella, and fresh oregano. It was quite filling and absolutely delicious! They also sell pizza kits so that you can make your own pizza at home. Pizzeria Vetri was created to celebrate the art of authentic pizza making. They aimed to create simple food made exactly the right way using the best and freshest ingredients served in a space where all are welcome.
