So I popped into Francesco's about an hour before they closed. I snagged a regular slice and another pesto, marinara and vodka sauce square slice. They were both so friggin good that I had to have a third slice since I'm trying to keep my weight up. Kidding. But it's really, really good. Small place with a few tables in the back...far from fancy but worth the calories and carbs.

We love Francesco's. Whether it's ordering pizza or dinners their food never disappoints.

From T to B, everyone I spoke to was friendly and helpful for getting this together. The party itself went well, the servers were wonderful. My main server for the party was efficient and very communicative about the next steps of courses for the party. They let us put some decorations up and bring a cake. They also print custom menus for each place setting. The food was so so good and the portions were huge. Everyone went home with take out containers. The price is totally worth what you get there. My penne à la vodka lasted me like 3 days. Probably one of the more affordable places for a get together. They put us privately in the back room. Great spot.

We were cutting it close to closing time, but tried our luck anyways. There were two people working at the time, maybe the owner and his son. They were both so friendly and kind upon us walking in. They greeted us as if they had just opened for the day. They still had several pies out for us to select from, along with other miscellaneous items to add to our order. We were pretty hungry and ordered a bunch of items. Again, both guys were very kind and treated our order with care. They also had no problem with us eating our food inside and never made us feel rushed even though it was nearly their closing time. The service alone was standout and 5-stars. Isabella's Pizza is located in a small strip of shops. They have free parking shared among the businesses. The establishment has several tables and chairs if you'd like to dine in. Their menu offers a variety of items and, even though we came in so late, they had a diverse spread of pies to order some slices. As noted above, we came in pretty hungry and ordered several items to share. These included: - arancinis - plain slice - chicken parm roll - stuffed knots (spinach and pepperoni) - garlic knots Everything was really tasty. Portions were perfect and the price was just right. Definitely a solid find for us in the area! We would definitely return in the future and would ideally look to stop in during the day to really see their full spread and offerings.

I got a slice of the "grandma" which is a think New York style with garlic, and two slices of Sicilian cheese. Both were delicious - and the Sicilian crust was just slightly crisp enough to a little crunch to each bite. Just what I expected. And the friendly staff were the cherry on top. Stop into Gio's if you're ever near by - you'll be glad you did!

Gio's Pizza & Restaurant was everything we loved and missed. It truly tasted like a slice of home for us. Delicious and fresh slices with friendly and quick service, we could not have asked for a better experience. We found ourselves coming back several times during our trip. Gio's Pizza & Restaurant is located in a small strip of shops with free parking shared among the businesses. The establishment has several chairs and tables for customers to sit and enjoy their slices. Many people at the time of our visits took their food to go, but it's nice that they have the option to eat in if people would prefer that. They offered many different types of pies on display and also had some awesome daily specials. I'm fairly simple with my order with a plain slice and some garlic knots, but my husband tried an array of things and enjoyed everything. Gio's Pizza & Restaurant is going to be a staple place for us to visit the next time we're in Islip. Excellent food, good service, and fair pricing.

What has changed more noticeably is the management. The atmosphere used to feel warm, welcoming, and inviting, but unfortunately, the management style has become much more rigid. It has gotten to the point where my husband and I actually avoid engaging with the manager (Scott), who is currently there. That's unfortunate because the overall dining experience could be so much better. Do your customers a favor and bring Andrews back. His interaction with guests was truly top-notch. He was warm, personable, attentive, and made people feel welcome. That kind of customer service makes a real difference and is something we genuinely miss.

The staff were friendly, attentive, and professional, checking in without being intrusive and helping the experience feel smooth from start to finish. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Each dish arrived looking carefully prepared, with generous portions that made the meal feel well worth the price. The combination of appealing presentation, satisfying flavors, and substantial servings made the meal especially enjoyable. What stood out most was the balance between good food and excellent service. Scott, the manager, and Anthony, our waiter, made everything memorable. Everything came out in a timely manner, and the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. It was the kind of dining experience where we could settle in, enjoy each bite, and leave feeling satisfied rather than rushed. Overall, I would definitely recommend Americano's Pie Bar in Islip to anyone looking for a delicious meal, friendly service, and a pleasant dining experience. I look forward to coming back again.

Instead, we found ourselves wandering into Vinnie's Mulberry Street. From what I had read, it is a classic Italian eatery known for its simple pasta dishes, brick-oven pizza, and traditional entrees. We decided to sit at the bar, seeking a relaxed atmosphere and a few drinks to unwind from the long, boring games. The bartender greeted us warmly, and his friendly, accommodating demeanor immediately made us feel at home. We did not come for a full meal this time; our main goal was to enjoy some drinks and a bit of downtime. I have to say, I really loved the bartender, His easygoing nature and attentiveness made the experience memorable. I am sure the food is fantastic, but that is a visit for another day. For now, it was the perfect spot to relax and recharge after a day of little league baseball.
