PS: in addition to sharing yesterday how delicious & 'packed-full-of-goodness' our 3 different calzones were, (Meatball, Sicilian & Italian) we very much appreciate the sturdy boxes our food came in keeping it warm in getting our calzones home!! Thanks again! Patrick, Patty & Annamarie Murphy. read more

Casual dining with mouth watering Italian dishes. The food at Longo's is always fresh and tasty. I had their Saturday night special of Chicken Florentine wish cavatelli which had the perfect balance of lemon. My wife had shrimp Alfredo which she enjoyed. The restaurant is priced reasonably and you get a lot of food for your money. read more

Longo's Italian Restaurant - Chicken Florentine - Pizza Near Me - Mentor, Ohio

See all

We would order here quite often. We always order the same things. last night my boyfriend ordered cavatelli with meatsauce and received cavatelli with a smashed meatball on top. I ordered Cajun chicken pasta that was supposed to be with linguine but came with cavatelli which I do not like. The time before this order my boyfriend cavatelli's were not cooked right and all stuck together. For the price, a salad should be included but they don't even give you bread. however, if you dine in you get bread. what a joke!! we are done with this place read more

Unfortunately, it's been over a month and we still haven't received a refund - it was nearly a $60 order. Obviously, we won't be getting reimbursed. :( read more

Ordered large thin crust to go pizza. Very tasty and crust was perfect. Fast, friendly and efficient service.

Order pizza at 7:00pm. It was delivered at 8:55pm looking like garbage. I understand they might be busy and delivery can be running late but when it comes looking like on top of waiting 2 hours.... So not worth it. read more

Longo's Italian Restaurant - This is how Longo's delivers pizza - Pizza Near Me - Mentor, Ohio

The food here is always amazing! My entire family has been eating here for generations. Mr. Longo has employed some of my friends in the past as well and they say he was a pleasure to work for. Good leadership is imperative for a successful restaurant and this place has it! Keep up the good work my friend. read more

Always looked forward to the fish fry. Grouper. That was last year. Just got the grouper and couldn't believe it Not much more than fish nuggets for $16 this year. To make the night even better, the Chicken Madison we ordered had no sauce, or mushrooms. Simply asked for no scallions on the dish. Won't order again. Very disappointed, and still hungry. read more

Horrible service! Sat for at least 10 minutes without anyone acknowledging us. Other people walked in after us and were served almost immediately. Many staff members made eye contact with us but never came over to our table. Very disapppinted! read more

I cannot stress just how exceptional the manager Nick, server Sandy, the cooks and entire staff at Longo's on Lakeshore Blvd are. my niece who lives in Atlanta is getting and wanted to have her bridal shower , here in her hometown. Not knowing if Longo's could could accommodate us, I thought I'd give them a call to find out about dates, times, cost, menu options, etc. I spoke to the manager Nick and he opened the restaurant 3 hours early so that we could host an afternoon event, created special menu items, and truly everything was perfect. The food was amazing, the waitress worked so hard and kept all of the drinks full and all of our guests happy. All of our guests had wonderful things to say. Thank you, Laura Hegedus read more

Dined there for the first time last night with friends who eat there frequently. For starters, we sat in the back for 35 minutes before a waitress came to take our drink order. She immediately threw her co worker, the hostess, under the bus by saying the hostess didn't tell a waitress that we were here, that she's horrible and gets complaints all the time, and that she has no idea why the hostess is still employed here. It was kind of off putting. We waited another 10 or so minutes for waters and coffee to be brought to the table and roughly 30 more minutes for food to come out. We had to ask multiple people for napkins and silverware before we finally got some. The food was mediocre, but the cheesy bread was really good! Refills took awhile to come out, they lost the coffee pot for a bit so it took time to get a coffee refill. It was just a mess...It's doubtful we'd return read more

It was okay, the food tasted good I got bang bang shrimp the shrimp could have been more fried but thats fine, but when we entered the restaurant there was at most 3 people seated and no wait and it took 8 minutes for us to get seated when the place was practically empty. The booths were good and comfy a little stiff but other than that great. read more

Just ordered using the online website. Very user friendly site that is super easy to navigate -and fast. Food was ready right away for pick up -and as always- it was delicious! Thanks for offering online ordering. Meg S. read more

Used to enjoy the food here. Did a delivery order on Saturday. Ordered chicken florentine and potato skins. The chicken was dry and had a sawdust like consistency. There wasn't much of it either. Instead of the angel hair pasta in the description and specified where they give you a selection, they gave me linguini. Their chicken florentine used to be a wonderful breaded piece of chicken with marinara, etc. No marinara now. Ended up throwing away the chicken. Couldn't eat it. Very disappointed!!!! I should also point out that I put the order in 21/2 hours before I wanted the food. It was still over 30 minutes late. read more

Service was excellent. I drove an hour each direction because I was so excited that there are gluten-free pizza options. Sadly, the GF crust tasted very similar to what I imagine wet cardboard would taste like. The sauce was bland and that made it difficult to get down. I really wanted to love it but just didn't. read more

After a long day of working 12 hours, Ben A. Accidentally heard my order as a pickup instead of delivery. When I called back to tell the driver that my house sits further back, he answered and admitted his mistake. He then brought me my order promptly after he left work for the night even though my address was not in route for delivery. Excellent customer service and a very kind person. Thank you so much! read more

I've read some of the other reviews and not doubting them but being from out of state this place was suggested to me for a decent meal. NICOLE was our waitress. Absolutely wonderful employee with a pleasant smile that always makes a good meal eve better. First time visitor. Took a couple minutes to get seated and the place was almost empty. It was getting late. But once we got seated the drinks were there very quickly. Potato skins for an appetizer. They were good. (Could've used more bacon and scallions but was still good. I ordered the Big Italian Calzone. EXCELLENT! I've eaten these for years all over the country but this one was definitely at the top of the list if not number one. My companion had a house salad that she said was very good. Support this place. You will not be disappointed in my humble opinion. I left a good tip on the card but then after talking with Nicole I decided to leave a second tip in cash. Not only a very good waitress but it's refreshing to see a young woman doing some great things with her life unlike most of these young kids now days. Anyways, great food. A must stop if you are in the area. read more

Just had dinner here to celebrate a birthday and I experienced the worse service ever!The food had no taste! The wings did not have much sauce, the pasta noodles were soggy, and one of the pastas had hair in it. We addressed our issues with the manager, whose name is Nick. Nick was the rudest manager I ever met. He didn't care whatsoever. Instead of fixing the issues, he said, "if you don't like it, you can leave". The issues were fixable but Nick decided that it wasn't worth fixing. We asked for the general manager's contact info but he refused to give it to us. Nick was acting shady and we left the restaurant dissatisfied. If you're looking for a restaurant with good customer service and good food, don't go to this one. Don't waste your time and money. If I could give it no stars, I would but yelp doesn't give me that option. read more

My favorite pizza place hands down. I was with a major pizza snob from NJ too and even they liked it which says a lot read more

Longo's Italian Restaurant - Bacon, pepperoni, salami and onion. - Pizza Near Me - Mentor, Ohio

We ordered take out of pizza and wings for my birthday and the wings had no flavor. The ordered three different kinds and they all tasted the same. All three were very dry and barely no sauce. We ordered three different types of pizza and we were impressed because those too had no flavor or sauce. It was over $70 and we won't be eating there again. Big disappointment. read more

Great Pizza and salads! They also deliver. You can also dine inside. Although I haven't. They have a more extensive menu than just Pizza but that's all I've eaten. I'm sure it's all great read more

The thin crust XL is my go-to. Also shout out for all the gluten-free options. Still one of my favorite pizza joints.

Calzones are excellent. Sauce comes on the side as well with the calzone. Pizza is good. I recommend the margarita pizza. They are friendly and we have never had an issue since ordering take out. read more

Ordered pizza to go, a large, half pepperoni and half mushroom and some garlic knots. When I picked it up that pizza was the smallest large I've ever seen. Whole family agreed and double checked it too. I checked the receipt, it was indeed a large. It tasted fine, nothing great, a suitable pizza. Same for the garlic knots. But it was hard to make that work for a family of 4 when you have two hungry guys. So this place is crossed off my take out pizza list. read more

Pleasantly surprised as I really don't frequent this place but after a long day needed to eat so we opted for this restaurant. Ordered agli olio spags and it was delicious. My wife opted for the chicken broccoli in alfredo sauce. Plenty of food, excellent service by Christina and she has quite the personality to go along with the service. read more

Food is average at best, but the reason for my review is the prices of the food. 17$ for 6 chicken tenders and a small pizza!?! The chicken tenders are trash also btw! Gauge much? Surprised you have been able to stay in business that long with prices like that. I will not be returning because I will have to take a loan out on my house just to afford a meal. Save yourself some time and money and go elsewhere. read more

One of my favorite places to go with my family and eat dinner! Always friendly service and the food is great too!

Food is decent but it's greasy. They give decent portions for the prices. We personally like their counterparts better - pastinas in mentor.

This is one of two Longo's locations in the Mentor area. We had a large group of 22 and they let us order from the menu. Most of the food appeared to be home made and portions were very generous. Nothing fancy here, just nice folks with decent Italian food. Garlic knots were offered pre-entree. The service here was by young folks who were very polite and anxious to please. Chicken parm with penne for me. Not the place for date night, but great for casual dinner. read more

Longo's is the bomb-diggety, the bee's knees, AND the cat's meow all in one. I've been a fan of theirs since I was kid and my folks would order from their (now closed) Painesville restaurant. They are my favorite pizza, hands down. They are better than any pizza I've had down in Little Italy. The handmade crust is perfect thickness, and is tender to the bite, not chewy like some places or cracker-like like you get from others. The sauce stands out as it is is a bit spicy as opposed to the sweet sauces all around the area. They use real chunks of sausage and meatballs on the pizza instead of the little rabbit-pellet sausages that the chains all seem to use. They have a lot of other good stuff on the menu as well. Their homemade soups are wonderful, especially the Italian wedding soup and the potato soup. Their chicken tenders and huge, hand-breaded masterpieces. And the chicken wings? Sweet sassy molasses! The wings are ginormous. I am not a believer in evolution, but the theory teaches that chickens are descendants of dinosaurs. Longo's wings seem to support that notion with these dinosaur sized wings. I like both the General Tso and BBQ flavors. Meatballs? Yeah, boy, Get you some. Super tender, super flavorful. Highly recommend Longo's! read more

first time an a few years...pizza was awful. very soggy.

Foods generally always delish but something's always missing from the bag. They're so busy in the store you don't want to hold everyone up checking the bag there. Worth is for the quality I just wish they wouldn't always forget my wife's pasta or salad so my night can be a bit better lol. Overall good pizza and legitimate boneless wings read more

The worst managers, Nick is extremely rude and unprofessional ruined my experience. If you disagree about anything with your food beware!!

The worst place ever. Ordered wings and the guy brought out wings not in a bag. I put wings on front seat and the garlic parm wings leaked all over my front seat. Left a huge stain. I called to c what they would do for the stain they said there was nothing they can do when it was there fault. I would not recommend this place ever. read more

Tonight we ordered chicken wings (hot and mild) and a small pizza with two toppings. Delivery was prompt, and the food arrived hot. However the wing sauce was running out of the boxes because the foil was not fully lining the boxes! The wings were tough but the wing sauce tasty. The pizza was a real disappointment. The crust was poorly formed, the tomato sauce raw tasting. Altogether it looks like Longo's has slipped since we last ordered from then. read more

Decent food and a decent price. Only downside is the teenager waiters and waitresses can be a bit rude sometime. I asked for a plate for my pizza and she brought me a cofffee saucer and said "this is all I could find". Just a B in my opinion read more

We had a reservation for the party room for a bridal rehursal dinner at Longos on Lakeshore for this evening. When we arrived the manager nor the servers knew of this reservation and requested proof. We showed them the communication for the reservation and told us to head back to the party room. The girl who would have been our server, Paige, told our bride we could move the tables if needed. We began to arrange the tables to fit our group when she returned to say that they could not be arranged in that way. Unsure of why we were setting up the party room ourselves, our bride mentioned going to a different restaurant as we felt completely unwelcome. Paige immediately retorts with "thats fine im not dealing with this" and stormed out shaking her head. Paige clearly didn't feel like doing her job today or even just being kind. Our bride left sobbing. Thank you to Robbie the manager and the other workers who seemed willing to help. I have been in this industry for over a decade and this is a prime example of how NOT to treat a guest. At no point were we rude and we were completely understanding of the communication error but this attitude from Paige was completely unwarranted. read more

This was a very pleasant dining experience for a family of five. The garlic knots tasted wonderful. Ordered a large salad and cheese sticks to start followed up with a pizza. Provided enough food for everyone and tasted great. And all for a VERY reasonable price. We will be returning here on future visits to Mentor. read more
