Customer Review for Jaime Jaime was amazing! She was so friendly and welcoming from the moment we sat down. She was very patient and answered all of our questions about the menu without making us feel rushed. Her positive attitude and great customer service made our experience even better. You can tell that she genuinely cares about her customers. We will definitely be coming back and hope to have her as our server again! read more

Ordered two small pizzas and wings online with ease. I customized both (one with red sauce and the other white sauce). They were both very good! I added spinach and garlic to the white sauce and ate a piece driving home (sshh don't tell). It was soo good. The wings were fine....a little fatty on a few pieces but I really liked the BBQ sauce. The interior is pretty and clean with a full bar....I may try dining in next time :) read more

A Tale of Two Experiences: Phenomenal Pizza vs. Disappointing Date Night We've driven by Giuseppe's many times, always telling ourselves we needed to stop. We finally pulled the trigger on a whim, ordering a pizza to-go since they offer a 5% discount for online orders. Upon walking in, the atmosphere felt warm and the staff was incredibly friendly. The Pizza (5/5 Stars): The pizza itself was everything we hoped for. The aroma in the car alone was overwhelming. We found the crust to be a perfect blend of savory and sweet with a beautiful, authentic char. The toppings were plentiful and as advertised, though I would personally prefer fresh mushrooms. If I were rating based solely on this takeout experience, it would be a solid 5 stars. The Sit-Down Dinner (2/5 Stars): Hoping for the same magic, we returned on a Friday for date night. We asked to sit in the back by the bar to avoid the crowd out front but the lighting was uncomfortably bright. When we asked our server if it was always that way, she simply shrugged. The beverage and dining experience continued to go downhill: * The Wine: The menu only lists wines by varietal with no brand names. We were mortified when our server brought out Sutter Home and Sycamore Lane, pouring it first into a measuring cup and then into our glasses. * The Food: The jalapeño poppers were standard and piping hot, but nothing special. The salad was fresh, though we ordered Italian dressing and they served creamy Italian. * The Entree: The shrimp and scallop scampi was one of the least appealing presentations I've seen. The seafood was actually cooked to perfection, but it sat atop noodles that seemed to be swimming in plain water rather than a seasoned sauce. It lacked herbs and spices, and when we asked for Parmesan to help with the flavor, we were brought a canister of "shaker cheese" (pre-grated powder) rather than fresh shavings. The Verdict: We will definitely be back for the pizza--it was a winner for us. We do plan to entertain a quick lunch. However, we'll be rethinking Giuseppe's for a sit-down dinner. read more

I had an opportunity to meet some friends for a holiday gathering at Giuseppe's restaurant. When we got there, we were greeted by a wonderful host who was kind and really, really attentive. We were seated immediately and given the choice of areas we wanted to congregate. The server Alejandro was patient and attentive. He allowed us to wait for our additional guest and he brought them back to our table without issue. We decided to order our meals and with anticipation, we waited and chatted. They brought out our salads and they were great. I would recommend trying the house salad dressing because it was really flavorful and not something that you normally obtain. Our meal choices came out piping hot, and they were all very delicious. We all sampled each other dishes and were envious that we did not choose those dishes for ourselves. We decided to take dessert to go because they had so many different options. One person took tiramisu while another person took velvet cake and the last person took cheesecake. If you're looking for a local establishment, please check out Giuseppe's. You would not be disappointed. read more

Giuseppe's Pizza - Seating with tvs - Italian Near Me - Petersburg, Virginia

Since they have revamped a few years ago they have really upped their game. My kids and I used to only go to brothers the only other pizza place close by but really enjoy going to Giuseppe's now. Their food is so delicious and so far we have not had bad service at the bar area. The bathrooms could use a bit of work during peak time but nothing horrible!! As long as plenty of paper and nothing too gross. read more

This review will be for a Door Dash order. The review only covers the food itself, and is not affected by the door dash experience. Being in town for an overnight basketball game, I decided to stay in my hotel room and order in. I settled on a couple of pizzas, as when I'm in a new place I like to get two in case one isn't up to snuff. This is why I do that - as my first pizza was very pedestrian. This pizza however was great. Little to no grease - thin crust and thin sauce - just a wholesome pie that reminds me of pizzas from my childhood from local type places. Very good. Properly topped with cheese - just such a solid pie. Would recommend and will be back. read more

My pasta was undercooked and that was after I returned the first meal for being cold.

Great food wonderful staff highly recommend great business . Wonderful people . Very helpful staff

I had the Philly cheese in the fancy pizza bread. The bread was awesome but the meat and veggies were alittle bland. Maybe I should have tried a pasta or something but I wouldn't order what I did, again. read more

We have eaten here a lot during the last 4 years of living nearby. Giuseppe's is decent at best, nothing to write home about but nothing to complain about either. In my opinion, it is much better than Joe's steak/seafood just down the street. I wouldn't hesitate to eat here if passing through or if you're staying nearby like me. read more

We went here for dinner at my daughter's request. The restaurant is a cute, typical family-friendly Italian pizza place. We were seated immediately and our server was very nice. My daughter had the chicken alfredo and I had the chicken marsala. Both of our portions were large enough that we each got 2 meals out of it! The salads were fresh and the rolls yummy! We'll definitely be dining here again. And once again, we were too hungry to take pictures of our food. I've GOT to do better with that! read more

We will never go back here to eat. The last time we went there the food was not good. Their food has changed since Covid. It went from great to bad and has never come back. We don't even get takeout anymore. We used to get takeout at least twice a month. But it got to where every time we got it our pizza was burnt and my onion rings were either drenched in grease or burnt slam up. I even called to complain about it but it didn't change. So we just don't go back. So if we want pizza or pasta we go to brothers, it's so much better. read more

Giuseppe's Pizza - Philly Cheese Steak Hoagie and Spinach Lasagna - Italian Near Me - Petersburg, Virginia

This is our local, go-to spot for pizza night. I HATE commercialized delivery places; Giuseppe's is the exact opposite. The family has been in this community for years and you can tell. I haven't tried the entire menu, but there is very little that I've tried that I wouldn't order again. Anything I wouldn't order again is due to my personal taste, not the quality of the food. The restaurant, dishes and flatware are always clean, the food is great, the bar is great, the people are great; what more do you want? read more

We live literally 7mins away from here and ride by everyday so of course I wanted to try this place out since it stays packed. Everyday. Our first time there it was storming outside so we did a call in order (7/11/22) we ordered fried calamari, Parmesan French fries and giuseppes cheese steak special. Super hungry and excited to try something new. Let's start off with the calamari... thru the bag it had a strong fresh seafood smell! They have a decent amount in the trey with dipping sauce but it lacked flavor of any kind. Next the Parmesan French fries... they smelled pretty good but they were missing something. Salt... idk. But it seemed like they threw Parmesan on hot fries and served it. They weren't bad. Different but not bad. The cheese steak... it was huge in size to start with. Loaded the way he wanted it. First bite... no flavor. Literally. Not an ounce of seasoning. My husband had to end up taking the whole sandwich apart seasoning it just to eat it. Fast forward (7/27/22) yet another storm is coming and we're trying this place again. Fried calamari, pepperoni roll, Stromboli and seafood platter. Same issue with the calamari no flavor. The pepperoni roll which look like a big hot pocket tasted fresh and doughy. I only took one bite. The Stromboli was huge and stuffed with fresh veggies. You could literally smell them. My hubby only had one piece of it and the seafood platter had one large piece of fish, it was suppose to be a crab cake but more like a patty the shrimp were rubbery and the French fries were hot but no salt. I got broccoli in the place of the slaw. The entire seafood platter had no seasoning! No old bay. No salt or pepper. Nothing! The broccoli tasted like it came out a bag. Honestly I'm surprised on how they are open still when the food is lacking flavor. How do you consider this "good" to add insult to injury. I decided to try their cheesecake. I got the brownie cheesecake...just stay away! Cheesecake is suppose to be smooth and have a creamy texture. First bite it was lumpy and that instantly turned me off!! I did how ever eat the brownie that was the ONLY thing from this place that was good and worth eating. We won't be returning I'm going down the street to try Joes steak and seafood hopefully their food is seasoned. read more

Guiseppes is my favorite restaurant in the whole world!!!! Sadly I have moved away and don't get to visit as often but I miss it everyday. I remember eating at Guiseppes when I was just a little girl, when the owners daughters were teenagers! The pizza has never changed. It's as good today as it was 15 years ago! It is and always will be the best. Just plain good! Heavenly even! In all the places I have tried pizza, no where compares! I highly recommend! read more

Pizza is very good, quick serve very friendly staff . Hoagies are good size and taste great.

We were on vacation when we found this place. So good. The pizza was authentic Italian and we haven't found anything like it since. The service was great and we didn't wait long for a table. It was nice to actually see the owners working the restaurant and interacting with customers. Would definitely recommend. read more

I ordered a mushroom pizza, and the mushrooms were not fresh. The service was not good, and the young ladies were not even pleasant. It took about 25 minutes to receive one medium pizza. The atmosphere felt old and uninviting. My first time there and my last. read more

All their food is good except their pizza . It has a tendency to be greasy and the crust is subpar.

If u ever go to this restaurant don't get their Philly cheesesteak .. the shit taste like ass hole , and the bread is all mushy like wth???? Their ranch is real good tho read more

Our favorite pizza place for many years recently closed after the owner passed away. Last night we went to Guiseppes in Dinwiddie, VA. The pizza on their website looked delightful so we were anxious to try it. Could not have been more pleased. Crust was airy and fantastic. Cheese was maxxed out and the quality of all ingredients were top notch. Also, not too much sauce. My only issue was they could have cooked it a little longer but that's just me. I like a crisper crust. Next time I'll ask them to bake it 2 minutes longer. The service was also polite and prompt. We found our new pizza place and will also try the other menu items. read more

Food is amazing. Top notch pasta dish's. Pizza is good brick oven style. Try the Giuseppe special. Penne with sausage mushroom vodka sauce.

We stopped here because of reviews on our way to Massachusetts. I still can't forget how delicious my food was. After driving all day it was amazing to get a perfect meal. I can't remember exactly but I think it was Blackened Chicken Ziti. It was hands down the best blackened chicken or chicken ziti that I've ever had. Highly recommend. My kids tore up their pizza and were also in heaven. read more

Great place to try American-Italian food. I've had most of the menu and with a couple of exceptions I would recommend them all.

We finished the Rugged Maniac race at the motorplex - we decided we needed lunch afterwards - we called - they were open and serving people! Service was GREAT!! FOOD WAS GREAT! Great selection! Great service! Will DEFINITELY go again! Lots of space. Clean. Welcoming. you can get desserts to go...yum! no complaints here!! read more

We always have great service here! Love the food when I come home we always stop in they have such delicious spaghetti carbonara

Stopped in to check the place out and order some Italian - but for some reason ordered the buffalo chicken wrap instead. Very generous portions, with ingredients fairly in balance - they certainly didn't skimp on the chicken! The buffalo sauce had a bit more bite than I expected, but it was nothing I couldn't handle. My only negative observation was that the feta cheese was in a few large clumps, and I think the flavor would have been more "even" if it was in smaller chunks throughout the wrap to add a contrast to the sauce. Still, very tasty! The fries were seasoned very well and fried to perfection! Our waiter was a little on the inattentive side, fixating on the TV. We didn't mind too much because the restaurant wasn't busy and our drinks never ran completely dry but it caught our attention and made us laugh a little. The restaurant was very clean and had a nice, casual ambience. Overall, a very good experience and would recommend to others. I'll have to come back to actually try some Italian next time! read more

Giuseppe's Pizza - The buffalo chicken wrap. The wrap was full of heat and flavor, the fries were seasoned very nicely! - Italian Near Me - Petersburg, Virginia

They have great pizzas! We've gotten several different kinds of pizza for takeout and liked every one of them.

Food and service were exceptional. I ordered the lasagna and it was a nice dinner size portion and hot. I still had steam coming when I packed up my left overs! Restaurant is great for just one or a family. read more

Ordered a pizza when we first arrived to the area.. had it delivered an I think the cardboard box it was in would have tasted better. Probably the worst pizza I've ever had... a frozen pizza from the dollar store would have been better.. oh an it was cold... like it just came out of the fridge cold . read more

Horrible gross food & definitely not authentic Italian. Our dinners were so bad, we tried to eat them but they were so horrible we sent them back & left. The meat was breaded and dipped in oil & microwaved to look like the bottom of a shoe. The shrimp was raw and rubbery like it also was microwaved. Neither dish was served with linguine like it was supposed to be (it was cheap ordinary plain spaghetti noodles), the sauces were so runny and disgusting. These were the worst plates of food we have been served ever. We used to come here a lot & I dont know what changed, but whatever is is, the owner needs to seriously figure it out. Worst dining experience in a very long time. The waitress tried her best. The lady at the front register was extremely rude & no one seemed to care how horrible the food was. Never going back. Too bad i have to even leave a star. read more

Traditional Italian restaurant from the outside that boasts an enormous menu, lots of options for those who like variety. Can't comment on the full compliment of dishes, but you have to think that consistency runs through everything; recipes useful for all cooks. At lunch, based on the cravings of my colleague who was returning for a second time, we started with toasted cheese ravioli with a hint of jalapeño peppers with marinara sauce. Good stuff. Yum. We both had linguini with a heavy red cream sauce that had some bacon and broccoli mixed in. Very tasty. The portion was bountiful, so we both had leftovers. Dinner came with soft garlic rolls. The salad was basic fare, but fresh. Staff was friendly, cordial and workmanlike. Perhaps too workmanlike. My only complaint is that the service was fast, food came out quickly. I would have preferred a little lull. Perhaps it was lunch time and less bodies, but the timing was too fast for me. Otherwise, this is a place you'd return to several times. read more
