I've gotta say the service is phenomenal! Not much of an ambiance just a kitchen area, counter space and walls covered in history. The creamy spinach pizza is something to keep you coming back. The regular is ok, they use a different type of pizza dough. The garlic knots are excellent and the bread pudding is oh my goodness.

Nice people! We ordered online and had a little pricing snafoo that was easily rectified when we arrived for pickup. Idk if the old man was just in a good mood or what but, he added a slice of the creamy spinach pizza they're famous for. I'm not going to say it's addictive but, the Passages Malibu commercial started playing in my head.

Bean salad

We were happy to find a cauliflower crust pizza here on Yelp, so I called for delivery. The food arrived promptly, so I was very impressed by the speedy service. The pizza was delicious, with an eggy fluffy texture, almost like a pancake. I tried to make a cauliflower crust once and I used a whole cauliflower and two eggs and it didn't turn out as good as this crust. The mushroom topping was fresh and not the canned mushrooms that some pizzerias use. Very good for cauliflower crust! The garlic knots were the best I've ever had. Also got some free bean salad and some chicken. What a nice touch! I will order again!

Sausage & peppers

I have to say.. it's truly unique when you walk into an establishment for the first time, and the people who run in on the business treat you as if they knew you 20 years,, that alone deserves five stars, and the food and service put them well over the top,, just so that we be clear, this restaurant is strictly takeout and delivery, there's no sit down area, which I also believe contributes to their overhead and that's why You received a generous portions at decent prices..Mark , Glenn & Veronica.. are such wonderful people very sincere, they make you feel so welcome. They have been in the Rockville center in Cedarhurst community for over 30 years, and that true customer service and commitment to perfection shows just that,, as I put in my order, they graciously offered me a soft, drink, sampled, one of their sausage and peppers, and even a slice of their regular pie,, I will never forget your kindness and hospitality,, mind you this isn't your typical Italian pizzeria restaurant. They also offer American food such as burgers and chicken fingers. I love the Creative pizzas,, let me make a note about their garlic knots. They're truly unique they look like more like swirled cinnamon buns, they were soft buttery, just the right amount of garlic,, I loved the creamed, spinach pizza. My favorite was the big ziti and garlic not crust truly amazing meal within itself. Fried calamari was delicious the People's Greek portion, juicy, and the sausage with the variety of peppers was outstanding,, I highly recommend for seafood, the lobster tail, shrimp and clams over linguine. The portion was huge. Everything was delicious, Mike recommended the famous, boneless, balsamic chicken let me tell you it was delicious and spot on, one of my favorites were the stuffed veal cutlets. A generous portion,, their ribeye steak , I have to admit, it was better than some steak houses that I went to, pasta I recommend the stuffed shells with spinach, very good, wherever you order here you will be more than satisfied, I love these businesses that are owned by families because they take care of their customers in that matter,, if you haven't stop by, l Highly recommend,, again when you do order keep in mind that the portions are so huge it's enough for two people

This place is the "Cream of The Crop"!! Their famous cream spinach slice is awsome, it was like eating steakhouse style cream spinach on a pizza

Cauliflower pizza

Mother Kelly's is the best Italian food spot in RVC. Tonight we ordered the three amigos- stuffed mushrooms, baked clams and shrimp, shrimp scampi, and a chicken calzone (that is not on the menu. Everything arrived hot and true to consistency in great taste. Even the marinara sauce is warm and delicious. They always send you something extra too. Last time we got a dessert this time a bean salad. The portions are large and can easily serve 4. What makes this place special is that you know their food is cooked with love and served with pride. They are top notch for everything from small dinners to office catered parties. I know because I have had both. They even have customers they ship out of state to. Not surprising! Yes, we will continue to patronize this fine establishment for their excellent customer service and delicious food.

Great service and great food, if you are around RVC definitely try this out. Large portions can feed 3 to 4 people.

The garlic knots!

DODICI SAVED THE DAY!…read more We had an engagement photo shoot scheduled at another restaurant in Rockville Centre this past weekend, but it unfortunately fell through at the last minute. Feeling a bit panicked, we ended up meeting the owner of Dodici Ray, who graciously welcomed us with open arms and immediately let us do our entire photo shoot at his beautiful restaurant. (We can't wait to see the photos!) From the moment we walked in, the entire team, manager Chris, the bartender, and the waitstaff, made us feel so welcome. Our photographer (Danielle Jenkin Photography) was thrilled with the gorgeous decor, particularly the stunning wine wall that made for the perfect romantic backdrop. Throughout the shoot we enjoyed delicious espresso and dirty martinis, followed by a wonderful lunch and celebratory limoncello shots afterward. The food was outstanding! We loved the pappardelle pasta, mussels, octopus, pizza, and my personal favorite, the fried calamari in lemon cherry pepper sauce. We were truly blown away by both the food and the warm, kind service. We are so grateful to Dodici for treating us like family. What started as a stressful situation turned into one of the most wonderful experiences. Dodici is now very special to us, and we will definitely be back soon! Highly recommend!

My NYE good riddance. An absolute disaster tonight. 7:15 pm reservation and we left at 8:00 pm…read morestill waiting for our table. The bartender had the balls to charge me for their Italian old fashion which he did not serve, but rather a half ass old fashioned with the speed rack rye. Never again and we made sure those that were waiting at the door to leave as well. I could say more, but I am at a much better place now (look for that review). Happy New year!!

Solid Italian in the area. Came for my dad's 75th birthday on a Monday evening. Place was pretty…read moreempty. Service was meh - could've been way better. Regardless, we ordered a bunch of appetizers to share including Cesar salad, Mediterranean salad, mussels in white wine sauce, octopus, and calamari. Portions were pretty small to share between 8 people (2 kids). The bread and olive oil was awesome. For mains, we shared the penne vodka with shrimp, lobster ravioli, shrimp scampi with grilled broccoli, and eggplant parm with pasta. The two kids had their own pasta and really enjoyed it. Again, everything was so delicious but just really small.... Had we known the size of the dishes, we would've ordered more. For dessert we shared the tiramisu, tartufo, lava cake, and ice cream. Lava cake did not ooze out chocolate which was disappointing for the kids. While food is pretty good here, I'd go somewhere else for better service experience.

I came here Monday for dinner. We were excited because the reviews looked great & I have been…read morewanting to go for a while. The service was great & food delicious! They bring out warm bread with butter & olive oil with rosemary to start. Very good. We solit a Caesar salad and It was delicious! Homemade dressing and croutons. They even were nice enough to split into two plates as we were sharing. My son got the spaghetti & meatballs and It was a huge kids portion. The meatballs and sauce were good. For my main I got the lobster and shrimp ravioli - wow It was great! My mom got the bolognese and that was also delicious. My sons both got a scoop of ice cream and they were good. I'd love to come back to try more. They also have reasonably priced bottles of wine.
