    Pizzas were hot and service was quick. I usually order a pizza from their display and they heat it up and bring it to the table. I've also tried the dine in option and it was just as good! It is a casual environment with plenty of seating. No parking lot but plenty of street parking along the road.

    Pizzeria Bacio is a family run Italian restaurant located right across the street from the lovely Vassar college campus. Bacio's has a large menu with pizzas, pastas, meats, salads, sandwiches, and much more. I have been here quite a number of times as this is one of my parents' favorite restaurants and they go here on basically a weekly basis. The food here is really solid, although I don't have pics of everything, I've tried probably over 15 items on their menu and they have all been really good. I particularly love their pizza, garlic knots, and chicken francese. I've never had a bad item here at all. The waiters are all great and very friendly and food comes out pretty quickly. We have never had a problem with anyone who works there and my parents have probably gone close to 100 times so I feel very safe in making that declaration. The vibes are definitely more family style pizzeria, but on the nicer side of that genre as they have a very nice outdoor patio. I do really enjoy this restaurant and never mind at all when my parents make me go basically every day when I visit. Definitely recommend people check this place out when come to Poughkeepsie, great for takeout as well.

    Oh my, there's just something about Bacio I like, and it's the pizza, which is tasty and yummy. We have done takeout many times and dinned in the past and the date I posted this review, we've returned. It's an easy procedure, calling in and they ask for your name and give an order number. Very friendly service from start to finish. It all goes from there picking it up. Don't forget to try their saltine salad (which doesn't include and come with dressing while doing takeout) - let me say, very very good. There many thing dishes they offer besides pizza, which will be on my list to try for another time.

    I've only ever taken out from Pizzeria Bacio so I cannot speak to the dine-in experience. I cannot eat dairy so I was thrilled to find out that they serve vegan cheese. The pizza is cooked wonderfully so even though the cheese isn't really "cheese" it's still melty, gooey, and delicious! My only criticism may be that you do need to order an entire personal pizza if you are ordering the vegan cheese. You can't just get a slice which makes it a little more pricey. Still it tastes so good, so I wouldn't dock them any stars for that.

    There's something to be said about perfect pizza. My mom is incredibly picky about it. This pizza brought us back about 45 years or so to where I grew up in NJ. Thin crust with an ever so slight crunch to it. Tasty sauce that's not overwhelmed by oregano. Great cheese. Not burnt. Just a perfectly pleasant slice. You can't find that in many places these days. The slices were each bigger than my mom's head and she crushed it. I had a nice bowl of pasta fagioli with a warm, delicious dinner roll. Service was fine. Decor was fun. Comfy. Oh yeah, I'll be back for sure. Oh, one more thing..... 15 BUCKS! HOLY HELL! That's a steal!

Coming in, nobody was to be found, and after waiting for about a minute, the hostess, who in fact was our waitress spotted us, and said we could sit anywhere. The menu has a lot to offer, with pizza being the main offering, not to be surprising, hence in the business name. I was very impressed to see the variety. Most of the items that stick out are burgers (which taste very good), pasta, sandwiches, soup, chicken, you name it. Some of the prices I found seemed to be a bit pricey, considering it's not quite a fancy restaurant. I sure can't wait to make many visits to try each and every one of their items. Our waitress, Casey (who never introduced her name, but found it on the receipt), was okay for the most part, very friendly, but didn't check in with us at all. With the garage doors open, there were a couple of bees flying around, and ended up switching tables, Casey apologized for that. Having peanut allergies, I asked her if the french fries were dipped in peanut oil, checked, and came back and told me they weren't sure, coming to my surprise. I subbed salad instead for my safety. In the evening, I called this location and asked a gentleman about peanut oil, the same answer as before. Afterward, I called the other location in Middletown, and sure enough, they said they DON'T use peanut oil. Talk about craziness, I have mixed feelings about this location, them not knowing one piece of information when it comes to food allergies. Outstanding food no doubt - but customer service needs big improvement at this location.

    Some pizza places are good. Some become part of your life…read more We lived around the corner from Emiliano's from 1999 to 2005, and it was our go-to spot for lunch, dinner, and delivery. Back then, we knew it was special. What we didn't realize was just how much we'd miss it after moving away to Western New York. For this visit, we drove more than an hour out of our way specifically to eat here. That's how much this place means to us. We ordered two mushroom slices, a white slice, and a cheese slice, and every bite reminded us why we've been talking about this pizza for more than twenty years. The slices are huge, loaded with fresh ingredients, and somehow manage to hold their shape perfectly. No floppy crust. No toppings sliding off. Just classic New York pizza done exactly right. In fact, Emiliano's is our gold standard pizza pie. Every other pizza we eat gets measured against it. The mushroom slices were generously topped and packed with flavor. The cheese slice was everything a New York slice should be: simple, balanced, and delicious. The white slice was outstanding as well. While we waited, the owner even brought us a complimentary piece of fried dough, which was a thoughtful and very appreciated gesture. What really stands out, though, is the atmosphere. Service was prompt and genuinely friendly. It seemed like everyone who walked through the door knew somebody. There's a strong sense of community here that feels increasingly rare these days. More than twenty years after we first became customers, Emiliano's is still everything we remembered it to be. Affordable, welcoming, and serving what we consider the best pizza around. We'll keep making the trip back. Without question. This is New York-style pizza at its finest.

Fortunately, a friend in the area recommended Emiliano's Pizza. I'm glad I took her advice. Not only do they have a damn good gluten free crust for a personal size pizza, I want to know where they get their pepperoni from! It had a nice zing to it that was spicy without being overbearing. The service was as good as the food, and the ambiance reminded me of an old local Italian restaurant I used to visit before they closed their doors. I just wish they had longer hours on Sunday!
