Large pepperoni pizza
Maria C.

I remember eating from this place years ago but I couldn't recall if it was very good or not good but in my mind I said it must be very good cuz it's coming to mind. As a result, my husband and I went by here yesterday to pick up two large pizzas for a pizza party we were having for my aunt who's celebrating another birthday. Happy birthday Aunt Donna! Nevertheless, we arrived about 3:30p 3:45p on a Saturday and it wasn't busy at all. My husband was able to walk in order two pizzas and we were in and out and about 20-25 minutes. We drove another 15 minutes to the house before we began to dive into the pizza. We ordered the thin crust with only pepperoni and oh my gosh it was so good!! Again we attended a pizza party and this was the best pizza hands down out of I think six places people brought pizza from this was the first to go so good so fresh! I love thin crust highly recommend you check out Rita's if you haven't before. The parking no issue at all and you don't necessarily need to call it in either you can just walk up order your pizza and get it in a reasonable amount of time. It's located in a shopping center in Portsmouth so you have other shops that you can browse around well not necessarily shop, but I believe there is a brewery next door but your time will not be wasted while waiting for this goodness! Have fun and enjoy life :)

Definitely Mom and Pop vibes. I was looking for a local pizza place and this was the closest. I called in my order and they did sound busy. I was a lot closer than I thought so I waited for my pizza. If you don't want to wait there Momac brewery is next door......just saying. There is no dining, take out only. It is old school for sure.....nothing fancy. Loved it. They got my order done fast and right. I took it home and everyone liked the pizza. It's a thinner crust and I enjoyed the pizza. Perfectly cooked. The Greek Salad was good but I have had better. Very basic with canned olives and iceburg. Good enough. I would order again when I am at my moms and she is wanting a pizza with peppers and onions. It's also reasonably priced and they do have some carry out specials.

Garlic knots

Had the carry out special 1 topping 8.99 pizza and they allowed 1/2 and 1/2 for topping which was a plus. Pizza was pretty good and service was fast. Garlic knots had minimal garlic and just drenched in oil, subpar. For $15 total I'll take it.

Only good pizza joint around. Same quality and speed for years now. Always a friendly face behind the counter and reliable delivery.

Cheese, jalapeños, and mushroom! Pepperoni!

Once again, we were all pleased with our pizza and wings tonight! It was my daughter's choice because she has always liked their wings especially the hot ones!

Okay. Let's talk Rita's Pizza. Whether it's a traditional pizza or, my personal favorite, the thin crust... or even an oven-baked meatball sub, Rita's is the bomb! Nestled right next to MoMac Brewery, Rita's offers you the perfect pie, with or without beers... although, the combination is undeniable. At Rita's, everything is fresh. It's not a chain. They do it right... right down to the aforementioned meatballs, which are killer. I literally get them on everything I order, as the employees will attest. I'm not going to waste your time gilding the lily here. Just go out and get you a Rita's pie. Take it home or eat it next door, where Rita's is always welcome. You'll thank me later. Promise.

Chicken Alfredo Pizza.. YUMMO
Shanae S.

We love, love, love a good pizza! Truth be told we usually follow a keto/low carb lifestyle but pizza is our weakness and we will not apologize LOL. So if you see us shoveling in a big slice just keep it moving, there's nothing to see here folks. Rita's chicken Alfred pizza is so word every stinking carb! OMG.. we love it! It's so cheesy, garlicky and that crust as an excellent bite. If you know, ya know. Of course they are a pick up and delivery spot so don't plan to sit down and take in the old school pizzeria ambiance but do like we do and pick it up, ask for lots of napkins and find a parking spot out in the big parking lot. I promise you it's so good fresh out the oven. The workers are nice and the pizza choices are vast. We have already been back twice and will gladly drive the 22 minutes to enjoy them again. Ok, go ahead and order y'all.

Pizza X-Large meat lovers ,  I waited 40 minutes and my pizza arrived like this. Highly disappointed

The restaurant has a laid back vibe and was perfect for my son, daughter in law, two grandsons, and me. Sabrina was our server, and she was fabulous. She made sure we knew about all the specials-both today and throughout the week. (Nice way to sell your restaurant cause we will definitely be back!)

Both pizzas were quite tasty, though I wish they used black olives instead of green on the Delux. If I do go back, I'd eat inside to try some of their other food and have some beer. My husband went inside, so I didn't get to see what it looks like in there, but it's seems to be in a good location and looks pretty roomy from the outside. The only thing I didn't like was the mix up about paying for the pizza. I paid online with my credit card, but when my husband went in, they handed him a receipt to sign, which doesn't usually happen when you've already paid online. My husband thought the pizza wasn't paid for, and mentioned it to me when he got back to the car. I had him go in and make sure they didn't charge us twice. The employee told him they do that for the tip portion of the receipt. I thought that was a bit disingenuous. My husband ended up putting the tip on the receipt and signing it, but I was a bit put off by all that. Why am I tipping you on carry out? You didn't serve me at a table. You didn't drive to north Suffolk and deliver the pizzas. What are we tipping for? We've already paid for the food.

When I saw my favorite Kouign Amann I was overjoyed because these are my absolute favorite laminated dough baked good and they are almost impossible to find in the States. My favorite bakery in Miami, Florida stopped offering them during the pandemic and never put it back on their menu. Anyway, it was delicious and I bought the last three!!!!! My husband, son and daughter in law each got a personal pizza and really liked them. As my daughter in law will be attending ODU we already made a pact that she would bring home Kouign Amanns every time I come into town to visit them!

I especially love the ham and Gruyère croissant and even ordered them to be served for my birthday last year. The service is efficient and kind and the atmosphere is super chill. I love stopping here when I'm in the area and want a pick me up. My most recent visit I decided to take my friend here after we grabbed coffee at Fr8 house a few minutes away. We opted to get a whole pizza and went for the Brisket and Blue which had fresh mozzarella, gorgonzola, smoked beef brisket, basil, pickled red onion, and green chili jam. The pizza was incredible. It had a great bite, slightly crispy, super savory with a touch of sweetness and the brisket was the savory star of the show. I added a bit of red pepper flake and it took it from a 9 to a 9.5 dare I say 10. I highly recommend checking this bakery out whether it's something as simple as a cookie or croissant or the whole pizza. There is something for everyone.

Heather helped me out on Facebook prior to opening letting me know they do take reservations, which was great because I didn't want to call without knowing first! My party was seated immediately at our time and Heather took fantastic care of us. The dining room was full but she did not miss a single beat and she was a pleasure to talk to. The bathrooms were well kept and clean, there is a changing table in the handicap stall and it was clean and functioning. I've noticed the last few restaurants I've been to the strap is cut or unusable so this was really nice to see! The food was AMAZING as always. We typically order to go but dining in is a treat. I'm a huge fan of the deluxe Stromboli with marinara sauce, it lasts days as a leftover! My husband got a sub, several members pasta and we also got apps. The mozzarella sticks have an insane cheese pull. It was a really nice dinner that everyone enjoyed! The family was talking about how nice it was for us to get out together and be taken care of for the evening
