Ippa pizza hands-down serves one of the best Neapolitan pizza in Erie. Tried their signature ' Ippa…read morepizza ' that features hand stretched Mootzarell cheese, milled tomato, basil pesto, house made italian cream sauce and pecorino cheese. The pizza has such a good balance of flavors with the perfectly thin airy crust. I definitely recommend dining in as you will enjoy the fresh-out-of-the-oven pie. There are plenty of seatings at the bar and tables. They serve alcohol and gelato as well. I'll definitely go back to try other stuff on the menu FYI, if you order for pick up, order directly from their website (with Toast system), it would be the best deal in comparison to other ordering service.

This review is for the flagship food hall location. My colleagues and I visited the flagship food…read morehall on a Wednesday night. I had my heart set on Ippa Pizza before we arrived. Once the crew arrived we went to the front area where ippa is being served and ordered from the bar. There were about 6 pizza options, Stromboli, garlic bread and two specials. We decided to order the Rita (Margherita pizza) and Pepperoni squared (double pepperoni pizza) and a large garlic bread. We took a seat next to the bar right before the live music started. The order came out within 10 minutes. This might be some of the best pizza I've ever had I could taste the fresh ingredients, the garlic, spices cheese all of out was absolutely outstanding. While I enjoyed the live music aspect it was a touch too loud. I look forward to visiting Ippa again the next time I'm in Erie.

I'd seen Blazes a few times and was a little intrigued, though for whatever reason not necessarily…read moresure I'd love it. But I finally made it to one, and I have to say, I'm impressed. I LOVE that you can put on all the toppings you want!!! And on top of that, they have a lot of fun and unusual toppings. As a result, every bite had a different flavor profile, and it was just really good quality food too. I also liked the Pick Two combo, where you get half a pizza and a big order of cheesy bread; i feel like it's a better value than just a pizza. Love the pesto, and the balsamic, and the combo of the two :) I didn't try the blood orange lemonade, as I always want cola with pizza, but I hope to try it sometime. The only downfall was that I got a cookie (I just got it to meet the amount needed for a discount in the app lol), and they asked if I wanted it warmed and I said sure--and they proceeded to char it in the pizza oven lol. Not well executed.

Colony Pizza GOOD: Meat pizza toppings were flavorful…read moreBAD: Crust and value for price (too high for quantity) Staff is friendly. Colony pizza has a diverse menu that I would give another try. Locals seem to love this place, but I found the pizza very average. The toppings were very good - greasy meats, can't go wrong. I like a nice crispy crust that can support the toppings. Their crust is very soft and chewy. Every slice needs a steady two hands as the crust falls like a limp noodle with any weight. It may sound picky to some, but a good crust really goes a long way and a good, crispy crust that holds toppings well makes for the tasty mix of texture. Also 19 bucks is steep for a 12 inch pie, even with some meats.

I was very pleased with Valerio's. After several Italian places fell flat since visiting, Valerio's was a win. It's a warm, family place with hearty food and great service. I can't wait to go back and try a calzone or pizza.

Firestone's Kitchen…read more This was the BEST pizza I've had in Erie as a traveller looking to settle here. I've tried 3 others, mostly very flat on crust or flavor (all independent places). Firestone's pizza has an excellent char, solid sauce and flavorful toppings. The restaurant also has a beer/wine store, and a eye pleasing meat counter/butcher. I have no complaints - friendly service, fair priced pizza for excellent quality, and the liquor section has some charm to the decor. ***From the road, look for Gordon's (even though Firestone Kitchen is the eatery). Gordon's is more prominent from the road.

It's located in Millcreek Mall & you can enter from mall parking lot or from inside mall itself. Our server was friendly & efficient with nice recommendations. I loved my pasta carbonara & our guest loved her spaghetti & meatballs (two HUGE meatballs). They have a nice happy hour & I had a French martini mixed well. We loved the zucchini blossom appetizer. The large wedge salad was good. And the garlic knot bread with shaved Parmesan is a nice touch, we got an extra basket. My husband & other male guest had the linguini & clams and were not as pleased. One said it was just ok, broth weak & unflavorful and the other guest gave it a 3/10 saying clams were overcooked & chewy. Desserts were good, we had pistachio gelato and strawberry shortcake. We would return & try again if in the area.

The appetizer we ordered was the Fresh Tomato Pepperonata... this was a 10/10... it was amazing and gr8 way to start the meal! Perfect way to get in your vegetables. Was a little disappointed that the server picked it up without asking us... since almost half the plate was still left. We also ordered the "Sicilian" with Chicken Pizzette. This was also a 10/10! Our favorite of the night. The artichoke, Spinach, and tomato combo created blast of flavor in your mouth. The Carbonara was a 3/10. The server mentioned it would be more creamy and saucy and we were ok with that. For us it was WAAAY to salty. Not sure what happened there. Could have been the prosciutto as mentioned by the chef, but unsure. They were gracious enough to take it off the bill. We'll be back for sure. If you're in the Erie area and craving Italian food, definitely worth checking it out especially if you're near Peach street.

I blew in my car and I never paid for the food. Number one if they would've contacted me I probably wasn't even thinking about the food. They're lucky I called them to let them know that my motor blue. But to ban somebody for something as stupid as that. I actually knew that I wasn't allowed to order. They didn't tell me I was banned. She just wouldn't accept the orders from my phone so I would use my grandson's phone or use my house phone, but of course I'm in my car so I decided to place the order without thinking about it. It's actually most times when I order I just go pick it up and her son's usually there or somebody else is behind the counter, but I have been ordering for Mamma Mia's since they were on peach Street 25 years ago. And I will order from them again they're Stromboli's aren't as good as they used to be when the other people owned it but they're OK. Guess I'll be going to Stevo's.
