Mel's Pizza is by far my favorite pizza spot in the Route 376 area. I don't eat pizza often, so I'm not there all the time, but every visit feels like coming back to a place that actually remembers you. Mel, the owner, always greets me with a smile and even asks where I've been. That kind of personal touch is rare these days. What really stands out is that he knows my order and starts making it as soon as he sees me checking out the pizza. It's like walking into a place where you're already part of the routine. The restaurant is always very clean, the staff is professional, and the atmosphere is welcoming. And the pizza? Absolutely delicious. Every single time. read more

Bland flavorless bianco pizza with chicken cutlet. First of all the ricotta was layered like it was a sauce. Nobody wants that much ricotta. A white pizza should be complemented by dollops of SEASONED ricotta. Sloppy, bland and poorly prepared. The thing weighed like 10 lbs. As soon as I felt the weight I knew I was screwed. Can someone please let me know if Poughkeepsie has any good pizza. I love Hudson Packard but I'm still looking for a good ny slice. read more

Just tried this place for the first time. I was tired of the same old pizza place. So glad I did! The sauce outstanding . Not that canned pizza sauce some places use. The crust, to die for! Forget about the excellent mozzarella. Found my new pizza place ! read more

Great pizza in Poughkeepsie. I had the cheese pizza small personal size. Menu says it serves two people but it couldn't. But too big for one. Very cheesy and saucy and crispy crust. Also had mozzarella sticks which were good but inexplicably served over lettuce. You can dine in or take out. There were a few tables and a tv showing weather forecast for Arizona. We got our food quickly and staff were friendly. This is a great pizza place. And they have other stuff on the menu too but that's less fun. read more

I would recommend Mels to everyone. The food not only taste great, but the presentation is also off the chart.

While I have never eaten at Mel's Pizza, I have ordered their pies, subs, calzones and garlic knots. They food has always been delicious-fresh, quality ingredients, the pizza is cooked to perfection, neither too soft or undercooked nor burnt on the bottom and the ratio of homemade-tasting sauce and fresh mozzarella cheese is just right! I don't order from restaurants much because the extra fees tacked onto the reasonable price of the product makes it cost prohibitive - ridiculous taxes, an inexplicable "service fee " PLUS a tip, has pretty much stopped me from ordering pizza, but I DO recommend Mel's. You will love the food as much as I do! read more

Pizza was ok but staff was unfriendly and uninterested in customer service. They are more interested in chatting amongst themselves than serving customers. No smile, no thank you, nothing. read more

Excellent chicken francese dinner- fresh and generously served; very reasonably priced. We will return to try their pizza!

It was our first time ordering from Mel's. We Ordered a cheese pizza, bbq wings and mozzarella sticks. Everything was delicious! Even had food for the next day. The staff were very friendly. We will definitely be ordering from them again! read more

RECENT NAME CHANGE: was Sinapi's Pizza pasta and more, now MEL'S. According to the lady who answered the phone, it is the same owner. So we placed our regular order: two large cheese pie, added 20 wings. The pie was about the same as usual and it was delivered within the promised window Buy a friendly driver. This place is a bit pricier than some but reasonable considering the ingredients are a good quality. No specials today since it's Saturday. Two large 16 inch equals 31.98 20 wings: we ordered them crispy six buffalo style and the remainder honey barbecue. They were a good quality wing, meaty and moist. They weren't super crispy but the flavor was good and they were steaming hot when they arrived. If you'd like it spicy, the buffalo sauce may not be hitting the hot button but it was fine for me. read more

Every so often we try a new pizza spot. They had a bunch of different topping combinations and of course, gluten free crust. I decided to get the white pizza. It's been years since I had a white pizza. It was delicious. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it. It was finished off with fresh garlic. So aromatic and crispy. It's funny how such a simple pizza gave me something to talk about for days. My husbands pizza looked absolutely delicious as well. Not all pizza is created equally. Will definitely be ordering again. read more

Amazing pizza service, and they even have gyros, their food is the best. One of the best pizzerias in the Poughkeepsie area

Always great gluten free white pizza!! It's our go to place. I can't eat it, but my husband loved the pepperoni pizza as well.

They have good pizza especially their fresh pies and one of the best chicken Caesar wraps I've ever had.

Amazing Mel is super nice and cool the pizza is good but chicken rolls are the best and their soup is good too

Please do keep in mind that this is the direct result of the "delivery driver" leaving what suppose to be a hot pizza pie, on a freezing stoop without simply nocking on the door and simply engaging in the quite simple..., the normal hand to hand exchange of what suppose to be hot food! I did follow up with the claimed owner who undoubtedly sided with the below slack "employee"! Of course in today's typical "management" mode, the "manager" playing "owner" on the phone - obviously not of any remotely italian descent - went all in on condescending about how long it takes to toast bread with "sauce" and "cheese" on it! Then had the nerve - the unmitigated gaul to continue to condescend with "do you know how hard it is..." with drivers? As if that's in anyway a customer's issue based on their advertising stating "delivery"! That's your business, and your "business"! The cabron mostly wouldn't even let me speak! Grasias primo, thanks a-lot for all of the attitude! And in closing for the last time, when you're ultimately responsible for leaving what suppose to be hot "food" with a customer, and it ends up on the cold ground, well then the customer is always right!!!! read more

Great food!! Different opinions on the menu and prices not bad!! They were great for suggestions on the phone.

we've ordered twice from mel's and the food has been delivered / ready for pickup quickly, and everything has been excellent; rolls, pizzas, salads, and heroes have all been hits. highly recommend! read more

Yum yum yum. Just had a kitchen sink pizza. Plenty of toppings but not too much that it was over loaded. Thanks for a yummy experience. Yummy for her tummy!! read more

Pizza was undercooked and soggy despite requesting it to be made well done. Garlic knots and stuffed mushrooms were burned and tasted disgusting. Chicken marsala was bland with rubbery chicken. The side of pasta had runny sauce. Very nasty food. I will never eat from here again. read more

It must have been a rough day for Lou, he was a little grumpy. He never mentioned the lunch special. The slice was a little small and just a few mushrooms. read more

Had kitchen sink pizza, which was very good. It was ready when promised and served hot! read more

Fantastic customer service and food. The owner and employees go out of their way to customize food orders, make recommendations and ensure you are satisfied. Every meal we've gotten from Sinapi's has been solid and I'm happy to report that when it comes to what matters, 'they've got the sauce'. Also cool that they're very progressive with tech. 5G wifi in the pizza shop, and at the time of this review, they accept apple pay, and are available on GrubHub, the Slice app and deliveries can accept credit cards using Square. read more

During difficult times, Sinapi's is a great choice to stop while near by. I like how the menu is set up and the service that's provided is treated professionally. There's a lot to customize when it comes to pizza and other foods, something to take advantage on my next visit. Something that struck me is the options for gluten free pizza, an endless list. I ended up ordering the American and Cheese sandwich hero which tasted great. The mayo gives it a kick. Come on by and see for yourselves. read more

Been looking forever for good pizza in the area for years. We finally found it! Their sauce is tasty.

Had a pie, tortellini soup and garlic knots delivered. All excellent. Quality food and reasonable prices.

Good pizza and good pasta! My wife and I stumbled upon this pizza shop in a seemingly quiet plaza. If you're in the mood for good food I'm sure you'll enjoy Sinapi's. We sure did. Friendly owner and staff as well. read more

Excellent piazza spot. The close to NYC pizza your gone find. Not as good as Da Bronx but definitely close to NYC. Pizza has a nice crispy crust the sauce has a full flavor and the cheese is good quality. You want to know how you can tell good quality cheese on you Pizza ?? Pick it up if the oil come flowing out like a oil well cheap cheese. Very little oil good cheese. They have very little oil coming out of the pizza even with pepperoni on it. My other favorite is Chicken Parmigiana hero omg awesome ! They give you a nice chicken cutlet and they don't put in in a million strips I hate that !! Try it I think you will like it. I don't give out 5 stars for Pizza especially for a kid from Brooklyn read more

My husband and I always order takeout from Mel's. We recently got catering from them for my son's second bday. We got eggplant rollatini and chicken Francese. It was outstanding. My Nonna from Sicily thought it was delicious and she's tough to please. Service was great! Will continue to use them for takeout and catering. The menu has been updated since Mel took over Sinapi's and it's really fantastic! read more

Good pizza at a fair price. If you're doing the low carb thing try their cauliflower crust pizza. Very good!

Best pizza around! I pass by 4 other pizza shops just to go to them. The restaurant is super clean. Give them a try....you'll love it!

I realize pizza is a matter of personal taste but I feel Sinapis makes a great pie at a fair price. If you're doing the low sugar or gluten thing, try their cauliflower crust pizza. It's really good. read more

Pizza was acceptable, but unremarkable. Crust could have been crispier. All in all, Ok, but nothing special.

Amazing pizza. As good as I've ever had anywhere. The owner is a great guy who enjoys chatting with guests.

The person making the pizza was not wearing a mask in plain sight of the customer. The person answering the phone took off their mask to answer the phone. Customers inside were not wearing a mask. SAD! This is UNSAFE !!!!!!! read more

The thing I love about this pizzeria is they are always consistent !!! And they more than pizza they have a full catering menu that is fantastic!! the food is always delicious!! And the staff is always friendly and professional. The pizzeria is spotless!!! Thank you for the last-minute catering order they were happy to make!! Southwest boat salad was my favorite !! I have a new one chicken francese melts in your mouth delicious and caprese outstanding!! I would highly recommend for your next catering needs!! read more

Wow - spot on pizza! also loved the garlic knots. Many options above and beyond basic pizza. Nice space inside too. Will be back!

First time to Poughkeepsie and was look for some place to get some pasta and came across Sinapi's. The food was great I had the chicken parmigiana and some wings. The staff was really nice and welcoming. I hope I get a chance to back before I leave. read more

So happy to find a place I can feed every member of the family! Great and reasonable kids food and prices. The pizza is not only good as soon as it's made but it request well at home after 2 days (not easy)! Fresh fresh fresh salads and good dressing !
