    Meat Lasagna?
    Jewel M.

    I'm on a silent quest for top notch pizza, but it's slim pickings nowadays when it comes to finding even "average" pizza in my opinion. After reading the reviews, I kind of had high hopes in Rosalia's, but I was sadly disappointed when my order arrived. The Grandma slice- ( subpar) extremely thin, and lacking in flavor, cheese and sauce. Served cold, which is a huge turn off! I've had pizza delivered on multiple occasions, so of course I know not to expect it to be piping hot when it arrives. I did however expect a semi hot or at least warm pizza. But this pizza was ice COLD upon arrival..I was able to tell immediately that they grabbed it from under the glass and just shoved it in the box. Awful! Pepperoni slice- (subpar) lacking in all areas and COLD! Meat Lasagna- Somewhat tasty! Had the perfect amount of sauce, cheese and ricotta. But there was NO meat! Didn't taste or see any ground beef in it at all.. Presentation was appealing though. I was definitely enticed at the sight of it before digging in. I most likely won't be ordering from here again.

    I've had their pizza many times when they were on TGTG. My favorite is still their buffalo chicken pizza. It has a really nice kick to it and their crust is crispy, yet soft on the inside. Prices are borderline high but then again, so is everything else nowadays.

    Decent pizza in forest hills. I liked the classic margherita pizza and pepperoni pizza. The other flavors are good too but I prefer simple. The dough was crispy and thin.

    Not sure if it was a good idea to get delivery from this pizza store at about 830 pm. I ordered a large pepperoni pie to be delivered within 4 blocks. When it arrived the pizza is cold, the cheese was solidified, and there was no crunch to the bottom of the pizza. Its as if the pie has been taken out of the oven quickly to not get that toasted bottom and sat at the counter for hours til it's cold. The first slice I ate was extremely doughy - so much breading. The next day I decided to beat the slice up and the texture was still too doughy. I'm not sure if I will order from them again. But in the dude note I like how they made the crust sound the pizza thin.

    Small place with seating in the back...came here for a birthday dinner celebration for a friend. Overall service was good. Another time did delivery for a party. Make sure to order early as it does take about an hour for delivery. We had a pepperoni and margherita pizza, pepperoni & mushroom, sausage & peppers, buffalo wings, calamari, sauteed spinach, spaghetti with meatbalss, chicken parm hero, chicken parm, grilled chicken w/ penne ala vodka, chicken francese, chicken marsala, grilled chicken with veggies, garlic knots (with yelp check-in) and nutella pizza for dessert.

    Decent pizzeria that has been here for years. It definitely looks the best it's ever looked. The ovens and counter are right when you walk in. You actually see them make the pizzas thru the big glass window as well. Small seating area in the back with booths and tables. I usually get them delivered and its fast and the food comes warm as well. The pizza is good and the menu is your usual Pizzeria menu. Sandwiches, hot and cold, as well as pizza. They also serve beer and wine here too which is nice.

    The pizza here is fresh and can be ordered for take out or eaten there. There is a small space in the back suitable for max 2-4 person per table. Although their Menu is predominately pizza, you have the option to also have wings. Service is quick and friendly . Pizza is great quality for the price . It's better to pay with cash, paying with a card will run you more.

    Came here with a group of 10 plus a toddler on a Sat evening. Place was not large but luckily we were able to sit together in the back area. We got different types of pies and my favorite was the Margarita one. Chicken wings were very tasty. Calamari was pretty standard. Got a free order of garlic knots with the yelp check-in. The sauté spinach was another big hit. Spaghetti with meatballs were pretty good too. We ended the meal with the Nutella pie as dessert. Oh mine, the crust was warm and crunchy as it just came out from the oven.

    Haven't been here in a while and wanted to try something new. Their Philly cheese steak on a hero with peppers and onions is enormous and costs $8.25. I had a half and some of the garlic knots with marinara (free with check in). The cheese steak is the best I've had outside of Philly, all fresh, quality ingredients. The garlic knots are solid and come with their house marinara. And you can use Apple or Google Pay for cash back. I tip take out orders a couple of dollars, at least. It's appreciated by hard working restaurant staff, bringing us food during a pandemic.

    If it was possible to give zero stars i would. Ordered from here for the first time through grubhub. Ordered around 6:30, estimated delivery time was 7:30-7:40. By 8 it's still not here so i call the restaurant and no one picks up. So i call grubhub and they can't get in touch with them either so they cancel the order and refund my money. At 9:30 my doorbell rings and it's the delivery guy who hands me the world's worst looking, ice cold pizza. Pizza looks like it was a half second away from being burnt. So now I've got this horrible looking, inedible pizza. Oh, and to top it all off? The sprite they gave me expired today. I'm not quite sure how they managed a 4.5 star rating on grubhub with this kind of service. Trust that I'll never order from here again .

    Amid the misfortune befalling many restaurants because of covid19, was able to order a pie. Delivery was prompt and the pizza was still warm. It was replete with cheese, perfect to satisfy my overdue ricotta craving.

    What a lovely surprise! There aren't too many pizza options in Forest Hills - the best would be Nick's pizzeria, which offers a more high end brick oven pizza with many fresh quality ingredients. Then there is Lillian's pizzeria on 69th Avenue, which has quite a history dating back to when Ray Ramono was famous for his show, and then Gloria's Pizza right next to Midway theater. So to my surprise, when I was waiting for a bus to go to Queens Center, I discovered Rosalia's. I literally went in just to get my craving of garlic knot, but we decided to order a regular slice too. It was pretty good! Pizza wasn't too thick nor thin, and had a great portion of mozzarella cheese. The best part I felt was that they also had the grandma slice, which isn't always available at pizzerias. Rosalia's also was a fair price, offering many coupon options or special deals. For example, for a set price (I believe it was $35), you can get an order of chicken wings, a liter of soda, and a regular cheese pie. That's not a bad deal. Staff is friendly, space is okay, and prices are decent. I would much rather come here than to go to Gloria's or those nearby pizzerias because at least here, the pizza is the perfect temperature with fairly decent quality. At least it's not soggy nor burnt like some others!

    Cuisine: 8 Service: 8…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 8 Overall: 8 I still remember back in the early 90's when there would be long lines outside Nick's every Wednesday before they opened because everyone wanted the buy one get one free deal. This was one of the best new pizzerias in NYC, opening to great accolades from various publications. Being a poor kid in Junior High School working for a mere $3.75/hr across the street at the corner Baskin Robins (RIP) did not give me the opportunity for quite some time. Anyway, fast forward 5 years and I finally had the chance with a few friends to experience what many called the best pizza in Queens, and I was very impressed. This became my regular "fancy" pizza shop of choice. What I loved most about it was the crispy and charred thin crust. It adds so much to the overall taste and enjoyment. The sauce was deliciously tangy and the fresh mozzarella made it a level above everything else in the neighborhood. One word of warning, the pizza could get a little soggy in the center if too many toppings are ordered. I usually choose none or no more than two. Also noteworthy is their yummy calzones. My personal favorite combination is sausage and spinach. Mixed with all that oozing ricotta and dipped in some tomato sauce, that is one great bite. Lastly, I like most of their salads too. Their food has been a staple in my diet for most of my adult life. Decades go by, and out of nowhere, I hear the news that Nick's had burned down. What a loss for our community! What a loss personally! Thankfully, they are back and feeling every bit like the original. Food is as good as before, while the decor and service has always been on point. Though not my favorite pizza in NYC, or even Queens, it does hold a spot in my rotation.

Been going to Nicks for years, before and after their renovation. The must get here are the large pies with any favorite topping. As the toppings are all fresh high quality ingredients. We love the sausage, meatball, mushroom, and spinach pie. Crisp chewy crust with a nice char. It's great that it isn't soggy with the spinach as other places have failed at. You can't go wrong with the pies here they are wonderful and deliscious. End the meal with a cannoli as the pistachio and filling make for a nice cannoli with a shell that reminds us of a ice cream cone. Nicks a place i'll go to again and again with wonderful folks working there.

I didn't see prices for slices (but maybe native NY'ers know you can order by the slice I saw a lot of people with slices only) so we ordered a whole "pie". They were very nice about letting us order something off menu (pepperoni and mushroom) and half sautéed veggies. You order at the counter and then wait for the pizza to be brought to you. It's a chill place with a couple of tables. The pizza was piping hot and I didn't even know I burned the roof of my mouth until after I was satiated from the pizza! The cheese pull on the pepperoni mushroom was great. The cheese was obviously fresh cuz of the pull without having to load on tons of cheese . It was very well balanced. The red sauce was sweet (is this a NY thing?) but I didn't mind it. If you want a pizza with great cheese pull. Go here! But you have to eat it while it's HOT. The sautéed veggies pizza was surprisingly good. I say surprisingly cuz I am not a veggie fan in general but it was good enough for me to enjoy eating the entire slice! Great pizza! Next time I want to try the grandma slice to see what the difference is from a regular slice.

For appetizers, we ordered the fried calamari and the baked clams. I absolutely love their baked clams -- I don't eat them from anywhere else. What I appreciate most is that their clams don't have that strong "ocean" taste; they're seasoned perfectly. Their sangria is also the BEST. I had the white sangria, which was delicious, and my husband and dad ordered the red, which they really enjoyed. For the main entrées, I had the shrimp scampi, my husband had the penne alla vodka, and my dad ordered spaghetti with garlic and oil with a side of broccoli. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. The vodka sauce was creamy and tasted homemade. My daughter ordered a personal pan pepperoni pizza and loved it. The service was excellent--our server was really polite, knowledgeable about the menu, and checked on us often. I also love the atmosphere: when you walk in, it feels like a classic pizzeria, but once you head to the back, it transforms into a cozy fine-dining space. The lighting is perfect, and the music is just the right volume. The last time I visited was over four years ago, and I'm happy to say the food and drinks still taste just as good as I remembered.
