    Regular Slice
    Victoria M.

    This is the place for a great slice, especially if you like your pizza hot. I got a drunken grandma slice. The best! Loved the sauce and the crust was crispy. My daughter got a regular slice. It was huge! They were super busy, but they move fast checking you out. There is also plenty of seating. Lots of great slices to choose from so come hungry. I live in Middle Village and had a bad taste in my mouth after eating at the Rosa's here. The places are like day and night. I'll definitely be back.

    Chicken Caesar Pie

    This pizzeria is an outpost of the famous Rosa's of Maspeth which is famous for its upside down Sicilian slices. This is located in the Bay Terrace shopping center, part of it being located in what was once Jack's Pizza which was a childhood favorite and was expanded for this pizzeria. The decor is nice and modern looking with booths and regular seating. And the service is was nice and reasonable. But I was not overly impressed with the pizza as a whole. As stated in some of my previous reviews, I have stated that I have gastritis. There were two types of white pies which didn't look too appealing to me and I was tempted to have a spinach pinwheel, but I decided to have two Caesar salad slices. On the whole, the slices themselves tasted fine and the grilled chicken was cooked and seasoned well. But the slice was wider than I'd like and the salad on the slice seemed like it was just put on. No offense, but I've had slices like this at other joints that had better umami and this lacked that and felt too heavy. This pizzeria does its job adequately for what it is, but there are better choices in the area and I've had better Caesar salad slices at other places. This is a local pizzeria that people in the neighborhood can enjoy, but it is not a destination pizzeria where you'd drive distances for.

    Regular pizza slice

    If you want a cheesy, crisp, thin crust NY style slice this is your place! You'll hey fast, courteous service in a dining room with ample seating. The environment is calm and the rest rooms are clean. One of my new favorite spots! I also hit a chicken panini to go. Will let You know how it was.

    Busy pizzeria at Bay Terrace shopping center. They have every type of pizza imaginable. I tried a regular and the Sicilian regular slice was a bit floppy little too much cheese but decent and that's Sicilian was good but the sauce was on the sweet side, they seem to be the only pizzeria in the area, especially the shopping center. They're doing well, but I think they could do better with the pizza

    We came by a couple weeks ago and ordered a couple slices of the specialty pizzas and they were all so delicious! Usually when we buy pizza parlors, we order whole pies or split some individual slices or get a plain slice and call it a day. The Sicilian pepperoni slice caught my eye and I haven't had it in ages. For some reason coming here, I wanted to try it. They gave me a corner slice and I hope the next time I'm back, they have more available. The pizza slices might not look like a lot but I couldn't even finish my chicken and tomato slice after that. Hoping for more mouth watering options next time I'm back!

    Cheese slice
    Mike L.

    Who doesn't like a good slice of pizza? I know I do. Unfortunately, there are better options out there than Rosa Pizza. Before this spot opened up, Jack's was one of the better pizza places in the area. Enter Rosa Pizza which is a nice looking, modern pizza place. I can only give it 3 stars because their Sicilian is solid. However, a pizza place also needs to be judged on a regular slice or pie, and this one didn't measure up. The sauce lacked seasoning, and the cheese wasn't spread evenly. Also, the pizza was thick, unlike the thin pies you can get at Amore or Baybridge. It was almost "Sbarro-esque"... in both thickness and taste.

    Mushroom slice, grandma slice
    Esther C.

    Came here for a quick bite after running errands and shopping in bay terrace. The restaurant interior is very nice with seating for dine in and if you order pizza at the counter to stay but the customer service when I was ordering felt a little bit rushed as the people behind the counter kept staring me down while I decided as I can be very indecisive when it comes to my food and then one guy was confused by whether or not I wanted to stay or get it to go after I had clearly said for here. It also took me awhile to find the spices but they do have a spice table/station behind the small booths. Pizza tasted great and price is reasonable for what you get. I would come back and try some new slices next time for sure.

    Sicilian
    Andrew I.

    We ordered from here for a group of people. The food came on time and was hot. The garlic knots were amazing. The Sicilian was one of the best that I ever had. The crust was not dried out or hard. This would have been a five star review. One minor problem. We ordered a grandma vodka Sicilian pie. I would definitely order again, but I will definitely check the pizza next time before the delivery driver leaves.

    It's okay. Regular pies are nothing special. Their upside down is what you want to eat, but it's not something I think I could eat everyday.

    This is, by far, the worst service I have ever experienced…read more I was really pulling for this place. I wanted it to succeed. I told everyone about it, that it was some of the best pizza in New York. I gave them so many chances. Last night was the final straw. Made a reservation for Friday night at 8PM. We arrived at 8:05. The waitress who's basically always there, who sounds like she smokes about a pack a day, was the only waitress there that night. I felt for her, but also, not my problem. We didn't receive water or a full set of utensils and menu until about 8:15. At about 8:25, she took our order, and we ordered a few apps and calzone and pizza. I had to ask for my coke about 4 times until she remembered to bring it. Water was NEVER refilled. We were never asked if we were ok. Around 8:50, we finally received our apps. It was ok, they've made it better in the past. Ambiance was starting to die down as the restaurant was clearing out. We felt a bit bad for her, but also, this wasn't our fault, that they were unprepared for a Friday night rush (her words). By 9:15, we were furious and our moods were ruined. We sat down at 8:05, ordered before 8:30, we were the only ones left and our pizza and calzone were yet to be found. Shortly before 9:30, it arrived. And again, it was pretty good, but not wait over an hour for it good. I wanted this place to succeed. The pizza maker from Italy deserves a better crew. The waitress doesn't know how to be a waitress, at all. No apologies, not taking anything off the check, not checking on us. There's no busboy, no one dedicated to take out, no manager. It seems that everyone plays each others roles, and quite poorly. They've lost a loyal customer tonight. We will NEVER give this place another try.

    What started out as a snafu, turned into a lovely afternoon…read more We arrived for our reservation for 15 people on a snowy afternoon to find only 1 person working and no record of our reservation. Alessandro was wonderful and worked so hard to accommodate us all by himself. We decided to keep it simple and order a bunch of pizzas to share as well as a family style salad. Pizza was served one type at a time, it felt like a pizza tasting menu and I loved every second of it. We started off the the Margherita, which was simple and delicious. His dough is perfectly springy and light, but also has great flavor as does the sauce. Prosciutto Pie included mozzarella, arugula, prosciutto and shaved Parmigiano cheese. Another delicious version, you can feel the high quality of the ingredients with this one. Salsiccia Pie used a spicy soppressata, tomato sauce and mozzarella. It's hard to believe but each "course" seemed to be better than the last. Svetonio Pie has meatballs, tomato sauce, ricotta, crispy pancetta, kalamata olives and basil. This was the most complex pie in terms of flavors, but they all worked so well together. The Arugula Salad with cherry tomato red onion, mozzarella cubes was the perfect acidic accompaniment to the pizzas. The restaurant itself is small and rustic, but it felt so homey and made for a perfect spot for our little celebration. Everyone agreed the pizza was excellent all around. I can't wait to return to try more of the menu.

    **Toskana Pizzeria -- grandma pie excellence, plus legit Neapolitan and Sicilian**…read more Toskana Pizzeria is one of the few neighborhood spots that can pull off *multiple* pizza styles without any of them feeling like an afterthought. If you're the type who actually notices crust structure, bake quality, and balance--not just "is there cheese on it?"--this place earns the five stars. **Grandma pie (the headline act):** This is the standard. The crust has real integrity--crisp edges, that satisfying caramelized corner bite, and a base that stays structured instead of collapsing into a soggy regret. The sauce tastes clean and well-seasoned (not overly sweet), and the cheese-to-sauce ratio is dialed in so each layer is doing its job. **Thin-crust Neapolitan:** Excellent bake and flavor. You get that lighter, more delicate feel with a proper chew, and the toppings don't overwhelm the dough. It's the kind of pizza that tastes "simple" in the good way--because the fundamentals are right. **Sicilian:** A lot of places treat Sicilian like a dense bread block with toppings. Not here. Their Sicilian is actually well-made--airy enough to enjoy, sturdy enough to satisfy, and baked so it has texture instead of being a soft slab. The common thread is consistency: everything feels deliberate, properly baked, and balanced. If you live in the area and you're not ordering from Toskana, you're basically choosing to make your life harder for no reason. Five stars.

    Toskana is really close by and after seeing Dave Portnoy's review, I decided to check it out…read more Plain slice: Really solid. Nice cheese pull, good balance of sauce, and probably my favorite of the bunch. It held up well, not floppy at all, with a slight crisp on the bottom. BIG FAN! Chicken broccoli: Just OK. I've had better. The chicken was slightly burnt, which was disappointing. Grandma spinach & artichoke: Pretty good overall. It's similar in style to Artichoke Basille's Pizza, but not as rich or creamy. Margherita: Underwhelming. Nothing really stood out and I've definitely had better elsewhere. That said, I'd still go back just for the plain slice. You really can't go wrong with it. It's a thumbs up for me!

Our server was very pleasant and happened to be the only one working at the time, though with so few guests, it seemed to be all that was needed. We ordered the three-course lunch special. One set included the meatballs to start, followed by the chicken Parmesan and bomboloni for dessert. The other included a Caesar salad, tagliatelle Bolognese, and tiramisu. There was a bit of a longer-than-expected gap between the appetizer and the entrée, especially considering we were essentially the only table being served, as the other guests had already finished their meal. That was a little frustrating. Aside from that, most of the food was solid. The only real disappointment was the chicken Parmesan, which was quite overcooked. It was unfortunate given that the kitchen was only cooking for the two of us. That said, the mashed potatoes, an unusual pairing with chicken Parmesan were excellent: perfectly creamy and incredibly smooth. The tiramisu was also quite good, but the real standout was the bomboloni. I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed them, since fried doughnuts wouldn't normally be my first choice for dessert. I would definitely return.
