They offered slices and a kid's menu, both of which we were pleased to see. I love cheese sticks so when I saw the advertisement for special, hand breaded mozzarella bites, I decided to order them. I also got a side salad, which they were kind enough to change to a Caesar salad. I got pepperoni, green peppers, and olives on a slice of cheese pizza. We also ordered the kids spaghetti and a meat lover's pizza. The spaghetti was a hit with my daughter. She ate nearly all of it surprisingly. The pizza was good too but unlike the whole pizza, the single slice didn't have the toppings baked on. So when I picked it up, everything except the pepperoni fell off. The mozzarella bites looked great but they had no seasoning and were very bland. After eating a couple of them, I was done. The salad was supposed to be a Caesar salad but was topped with shredded mozzarella cheese and no parmesan. Service here was very good and everyone we came in contact with was pleasant and welcoming. There were a few execution issues with the food, hence the three stars. Despite this, we would return.

I am beyond dissatisfied. Birthday Disaster I placed an order yesterday for my daughter's birthday party: one small pepperoni and two large cheese pizzas. Simple enough. Instead, the order arrived **two hours late**--long after hungry kids were asking where the pizza was. When it finally showed up, it wasn't even my order. They delivered someone else's food entirely. After calling to ask where my actual order was, I was told they could "get it out" to me--but it would take another **hour and a half**. At that point, the party was already ruined. I canceled and demanded a refund. Unbelievable Second Attempt Against my better judgment, I decided to give them one more chance today. I ordered one large, plain cheese pizza. That's it. One pizza. Once again, it took **two full hours** to arrive. And when it did? It had **no cheese**. Just sauce. A $30 sauce pizza. No exaggeration. Completely Unacceptable * Two-hour delays on both days * Wrong order delivered * Missing ingredients * No urgency to fix their mistake * $30 wasted on a pizza with no cheese There is no excuse for this level of incompetence--especially for something as basic as pizza. Delivering the wrong order once is bad. Doing it twice in two days is unacceptable. I will never order from this company again. I will be sharing this experience with everyone I know--my coworkers, my neighbors, and anyone considering ordering from here. A child's birthday should not be ruined over something so simple. This was a complete failure from start to finish.

After sending it back, the replacement meal came back with undercooked fish and still-overcooked shrimp. Instead of resolving the issue professionally, the manager rudely asked if I wanted to change my order to something else (which would be the third meal!) The most disappointing part was being charged for the salad that came with the meal, even though the entrée had been prepared incorrectly twice. When I questioned it, the manager's response showed little concern for customer satisfaction. Poor food, poor service recovery, and a manager who could benefit from some days of customer service training. What should have been a pleasant dinner with family turned into a frustrating experience. I would not recommend this restaurant and will not be returning!!

From the moment you open the box, you can tell this isn't your average slice. The aroma hits first--fresh garlic, rich tomato sauce, perfectly melted cheese. The crust strikes that ideal balance: golden and crisp on the outside with a soft, airy chew on the inside. It holds its structure (no sad, floppy slice here) but still folds like a proper slice should. The sauce tastes bright and balanced--slightly sweet, slightly tangy--and it doesn't overpower the toppings. Every ingredient tastes intentional. The cheese? Melted to that perfect bubbly finish with just the right stretch when you pull a slice away. It's the kind of pizza that makes you pause after the first bite just to appreciate what just happened. What I love most about Arianna's is that it feels elevated without trying too hard. It's classy but unpretentious. You could grab a pie for a laid-back Friday night, or serve it when friends come over and feel like you made a solid choice. It's comfort food--but done right. Some pizzas fill you up. Arianna's makes you want another slice, even when you're already full. 10/10 -- would absolutely recommend Now I do some reviews that aren't positive, but my first experience hasn't been anything to be negative about

The slices came quickly, and they were...OK. Nothing as sublime as the reviews would lead me to believe. The crust was cooked unevenly, with parts going beyond charred to being burned, while other parts were fine. It was like the pizzaiolo did not know where the hot spots in the oven were or how to rotate the pies to accommodate the quirks of the oven. Toppings were generally good, and we appreciated the sprinkle of fresh parmesan as a finish to the pizza. But the mozzarella was a little thin, and there just needed to be more sauce. You could barely tell it was there, and it lacked any real flavor. It was more lubricant than part of the flavor profile. Again, this may have been a bad night. But I would note that we were there on a Friday around 9, which is prime time for pizza, and there was almost no traffic. This may have been part of the problem with the slices--there just was not enough turnover, and things were drying out in the warmer. But it seems odd to me that a place everyone is raving about is near-dead in prime time. Again, it could be a bad night.

They don't really do anything other than pizza; I like my salads and appetizers and craft beverages but you're not getting that here, nor is it a special dietary needs kind of place. But I had a desire not to cook for a couple of days so I took a plunge on two large half and half pizzas to try basically all they had that was of interest to me. And that is some quality pizza. The crust is really the difference-maker. Dusted with fine grain, browned and bubbled with subtle flavor notes and a floppiness appropriate for a true New York style pizza, their crust was done right. The cheese mix, tangy sauce with some American-style spice notes, and a bit of ranch on the side that tasted strongly of dill were all part of the picture. They had slices for sale in person but not online. Seating was quite limited but there were a handful of outdoor tables that you could use if the weather permits. So there's not a lot to say about them other than the quality of the pizza itself. But as someone who goes to NYC from time to time and is headed that way again soon, if I'd gotten this pizza there I would have been happy with it.
