As a loyal Yelper, I am compelled to share, even if it makes my pickup wait times longer! While I expected NY-style, their pizza is more like a Chicago thin crust, bar-cut pizza. It was fantastic! A light, crispy crust, a very tasty sauce, plenty of toppings, and WAY more cheese than most pizzas joints offer nearby. My big surprise here was their simple salami sub. It's made from 100% top-shelf quality ingredients, and even had marinated peppers. Without a doubt, it was the BEST Italian-style submarine I have ever enjoyed! From a simple hole-in-the-wall in Largo? I was truly amazed! Word must have gotten around, as this place is far busier than it used to be. I am very much looking forward to my next visit!

What a great little spot! We wanted to try their steak grinder, and wow did it exceed our…read moreexpectations. Thanks again, Yelpers! The restaurant is sort of snuck in the back of a plaza off the main road, with an overall local & casual feel to it. They're obviously a great pizza and beer spot (three brews on draft), but check their sandwiches and pasta out while you're there! We will definitely return. You can also have the food pre-ordered directly on PinellasPizzeria.com, we found out this evening- a great time saver!!

This is primarily a coal-fired pizza joint (hence the name) with a whole lot more to offer. Let's start with appetizers! I highly recommend the fried calamari, we sometimes order a second helping of it because it's just that good! The soups and salads are freshly made and my friend tried the pasta and bean soup. The portion was huge. Pizza toppings are a personal matter, but if you want to really get the authentic Italian experience, don't forget the anchovies on your pizza! A little goes a long way! This visit I had pasta instead of pizza, specifically Beef Ravioli with cheese and meat sauce. It was good and I'm going to explore the pasta offerings more thoroughly as we enjoy future visits. You'll notice the staff is young and engaging. I've noticed over the years that a happy staff is a good bellwether of the quality of the dining experience. I always have fun with the cozy atmosphere at Cristino's. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

A…read moregroup of six of us stopped in on Friday night and were amazed at how different the place felt. Same decor, same tables but, it definitely had a positive upbeat atmosphere, it hasn't had in several years. We met the current owner who stopped by each table checking in and making sure patrons were satisfied. Our server was sharp, he knew the menu well, he knew what the ingredients were and he knew how things were prepared. We were a bit concerned when he took our orders because he didn't write anything down but, everything came out perfectly. He checked on us several times and made sure we had everything we needed. Our food was absolutely, spot on delicious.Sandwiches were large and filling and expertly prepared as though some little grandma was preparing them. The dinners were large and well seasoned, needing a box for leftovers. The pizza was the star of the show, thin, crispy crust with toppings edge to edge and flavor that was as robust as anything in Chicago. The sausage had that scrumptious fennel taste that distinguishes it from any other place in the country that, and the fact it's cut into squares. Having lived in Chicago over 20 years, it was an awesome experience when requesting the gahlick and the 'regano and it came out in shakers. That really seals the deal!! The only thing missing from this place compared to those in Chicago was the addition of ordering homemade creamy garlic salad dressing on the salad. All in all, this place is top notch, give it a try and tell Joe, Jack sent ya!!

Chicago Pizza is what I grew up with but it's hard to find a good one in Florida and I've been here…read morefor some time. I do have my go to's, but I am always looking for a new fave to add to my list. I even follow a FB group for Chicago pizza in Florida. Unfortunately, this is not it. Yes the thin crust is it and the square pieces yes, but the crust is a no bc there's no flavor. There's no sauce. Which even with adding sauce on the side it didn't do much for it. It's just a crunchy piece of dough with a lack of sauce and cheese and Hawaiian. So I will stick with my nearby fave which still crosses off the boxes and is made to perfection - Paul's Chicago Pizza in Clearwater for thin crust. I do see there are locations for Little Italian in Naperville IL, which I always frequented, but this for sure is not it right here. For some maybe, but not in my family. Still this is a nice location inside. Spacious, full of light, comfortable, and friendly service. Check them out and see what you think.

I ordered the same pizza as the last couple of times (18" Supreme) but I just need to add a couple…read moreof small updates. For one thing, the 18" pies are now $2 or $3 more than the 16" ones. No big deal for a bigger pie, actually. One thing I neglected to mention about the toppings on this thing...they are fresh! No canned mushrooms or soggy pepper chunks on this bad boy. Again, the veggies are plentiful and there's enough protein (sausage, pepperoni and mutz) to keep the flavor going. I know Westshore just up the street uses canned veggies on their pies...yet another valid reason to stay away from there. Now here's an interesting side note...I made the call to place the order. For a split second I thought I dialed the wrong number. A lady with a thick Asian accent answered and I had to slow down a bit to make sure I understood her and conveyed my own information properly. When I get there to pick up, indeed an Asian lady (Vietnamese, actually) was behind the counter running the place. I usually get the owner himself, but he wasn't anyplace in the small store. This time, meanwhile, their newest menu was plastered onto the pizza box. One of the oddities I noticed in the appetizer section of their menu is "Vietnamese Egg Rolls." I'd seen it previously but thought nothing of it. So putting two and two together I figured out that Mrs. Owner was in charge today! Now the egg roll app makes a lil more sense! So the big thing out of all this is what I'd said previously...I am glad to support these local "little guy" operations. I'm particularly proud to do so when I see a hard working couple running an operation like this rather than filling some third party's pocket. She was a very nice, polite lady, much as her husband is a well mannered man. Both are friendly and solicitous, and they know how to make a mean pie. I highly recommend them; I would just get it to go, because the shop itself wins no prize at all.

I just called them and unfortunately, their sandwiches are only available on foccacia bread.....no Italian sub bread.
