After two years of avoiding this place, I finally came back on this rainy Friday evening. I was browsing for a local pizza spot close to my apartment and wanted to reconsider Rosa's after a long hiatus. I kept coming across images of their grandma pie and told myself I would give it one more shot. Although ordering and picking up a pie is quite a logistical disaster, the grandma pie that I got tonight made up for my last experience and the wait tonight. Although this place does not have any sort of rhyme or reason with their ordering system, the quality of their pizza has improved since my last visit and I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived home and opened my pizza box. Thank you for quality pie tonight and I look forward to trying the other slices soon. Disclaimer * I took 1 star off due to having to wait an hour when I was initially told 30 minutes. I also was confused why none of the workers wore a mask nor any hand gloves when dealing with food, money, cheese, pizza toppings, etc. read more

They suck. Their pizzas taste like cardboard. Service is horrible don't waste your time or money. Wish I could give a 0 for the horrible customer service I received when I was trying to place an order. They hung up and was totally rude. read more

Best pizza and Italian food NYC has to offer. This hidden crown jewel is located in Astoria, although there are several chains across Queens, which produce similar superior quality cuisine. I have lived in NYC for over 30 years, and nothing has come close to good or on par with Rosa's. Their pizza is just absolutely delicious - with a perfect balance of both cheese and sauce along with an enriched pizza bread that will leave you coming back for more than one slice! Prices are reasonable, but worth noting that all of their price points are based on cash payments. Be prepared to pay tax and an additional fee if you use a credit card. Aside from an excellent cheese slice, I also enjoy their Chicken Caesar pizza, and their spaghetti with chicken, broccoli, garlic and oil. Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for some awesome NYC style pizza and Italian food. read more

Classic NY slice with friendly service. We got a plain, a chicken bacon, and a chicken with broccoli, and all three were delish! I am a sauce gal (some might say saucy) and you can TASTE that the sauce is homemade with love. Perfect combination of tangy, not too salty mozzarella, sweet, sauce with lots of tomato flavor, and a crispy crust. I totally understand now why Rosa's is an Astoria staple and often referred to as one of the best places for a pie in the neighborhood. Brava, Rosa. read more

Great slices with good toppings and piping hot. No complaints quick service and one of the better slices in Astoria.

We passed that pizzeria many times before, but today we finally decided to try it. To stay away from the meat we got the grandma and ravioli pizza. The ravioli pizza may not sound like a good combo, and unsurprisingly, it is not. Both pizza dough were mediocre, topped with bottom shelf ingredient (that canned tomato taste yuck). And it's not even cheap. It's actually very expensive for the quality you get. I'd recommend you avoid this pizzeria. read more

After the closing of our beloved Polito's Pizza (our go-to for delivery), we needed a new pizza place to fill the void. We've tried this place a couple of times (along with all the other pizza places in the vicinity) and I think I can say this is the new favorite. The first time we ordered we got the eggplant pizza with sausage and peppers added on, which arrived in good shape but was too soggy. Chalk it up to our inexperience with how heavy-handed they are with toppings (usually a good thing!). The next time we just got a plain eggplant pizza and it was perfect. Lesson learned - get one or (maybe) two toppings max - no need for any more, or the pizza won't be able to handle it. Sauce to cheese ratio was great and the crust was nice also. We'll be back! read more

The absolute best pizza in Astoria, hands down! When in doubt always choose pepperoni, chicken bacon ranch, or buffalo and trust me you wont be sorry. I come here religiously and they have a great seating area with a couple of TVs so dining in is always great. They have a decent selection of pizzas which I love but since I'm a creature of habit I always pick between my top 3 faves. The prices are fair for the quality and the staff is always friendly. I always find my way here when I'm in Astoria. read more

Good solid neighborhood pizza place! This review is just for the heroes since there's not a lot on those! Ordered chicken parm hero and eggplant parm hero. Both were great, chicken could have used a little more salt for our taste. Very generous on the portion, huge chunks of chicken and layers upon layers of eggplant. Not too much breading which we liked since it stayed moist and we could taste the eggplant. With the sauce and melted cheese were the best bites. And the sesame bread was so good! Fluffy and tasty. Also, the people there are so nice! Will definitely order heroes from there again! read more

The pizza is fine. My issue is this, each time I order, I ask for "light cheese" as in, not a lot, less than usual, don't put the typical amount of cheese on the pie. As always, the person making the pie never follows this simple direction. It's always a pie with the typical amount of cheese. It's absolutely infuriating. Normally, I order a pizza on the way home from my job (Branchinelli's in Long Island is the absolute best pie you will ever order/eat) but sometimes in a pinch I have to order Rosas, No more, can't do it, sorry. Word to the wise, when the person on the phone says, light cheese 3 times, make sure the guy making the pie gets the memo. read more

It's usually very busy in this pizzeria. They have tons of pie options and a good amount of seating. I love their veggie slice, ziti and mushroom slices! I've also catered from here and the prices are decent for the sizes you get! The staff is friendly and the establishment is always clean! I highly recommend checking them out! read more

Love ordering from here on Allset. Always fast and delicious I like the oil and garlic or the meat sauce ziti. The best value 6pc garlic knots for the size they are and always fresh read more

New Rosa's location! CASH ONLY The revered local Maspeth and Ridgewood giants have a new sister spot in Astoria, yes! ATM AVAILABLE Clean with friendly owners, grab a nice hot slice or spice up your life with some buffalo chicken or a spinach slice. Yum My grandma slice came out just right, chewy cheese with a great chew from the crust too, but the sauce was a little on the sweeter side, like a classic grandma's recipe for red sawce BATHROOM SIGN IS.. AMAZING (see pic). Love. All in all, Astoria welcomes Rosa's, right across a rival pizza joint, Vidali's, LOL ! read more

If I could put 0 stars I would. I usually go in to eat with no problem. This time I ordered on the phone...waiting an hr and 10 minutes when we were promised 35 minutes delivery is unacceptable, especially since I live up the street 2 blocks away. that was my experience the last time I ordered from them. you lost a customer. read more

A solid slice spot with a reputation that proceeds itself in their original Maspeth location. Seems as though that location is adored and moving within a couple blocks of the Astoria location, I was hoping for the same. Had a few cheese and grandma slices and enjoyed them both, but a little dry and not overly memorable. I've given the place a few tries hoping to find that nostalgia others have, but it's good/solid pizza. Nothing worth crossing borough borders for, but a solid neighborhood spot. read more

I like their food selections especially for a fast food. There is plenty of seating in you want to wait and eat instead. Service is always quick no matter what. I've never had a bad meal / pizza from them. Although when you order delivery it can take more time than usual. I come here every time for quick snack or quick lazy meal day. Must try! read more

I ordered Manicotti from here the first order I had the same back because they didn't have no cheese on it they sent a new order in the order I got was terrible the The manicotti shells were all broke up I reached out to them and the issue was not resolved they gave me some sorry excuse they do not never have to worry about me ordering from them again read more

Really good pizza! The sauce has a nice sweetness, and the slice was very tasty! I also loved the Buffalo chicken pizza. Definitely going back when we're in the neighborhood! read more

Horrible experience ordering takeout--was promised a 35 minute wait and it ended up being an hour and 10 minutes. The person on the phone was very cavalier and so was the delivery person. I will NEVER patronize them again, full stop. If I could give them negative stars, I would gladly. read more

This place is what NYC pizza should always taste like. Not just the pizza but everything in the menu is great. I ordered take-out and it was fresh just as if I ate it in the shop. I've lived in the area for about a year now and have tried every single pizza place in the vicinity of Astoria and Long Island City. This is by far the best. Make sure to call in your order as some of the apps don't offer the full menu. (By the way I never write reviews thats how good the pizza is) read more

When Rosa's first opened they were amazing! The best in the hood! But the last two pizzas I've ordered have been a soggy mess. Over sauced and overly greasy. I hope it improves because I'd love to start ordering from here again. read more

Rosa's Pizza and the order platform/website Slice life were very accommodating on helping me substitute an item on the order. Turned out to be delicious too! The family enjoyed the linguini with clam sauce and the ziti with meat sauce. We highly recommend! read more

We usually go to the one on Fresh Pond Road. They opened a new location in Astoria, and we've been during the soft opening. They didn't disappoint! My personal favorite is the Pizza Margherita. The sauce has the right combo of tanginess and sweetness, and the freshness of the mozzarella and basil just rounds up the taste. The hubby believes that the Sicilian pizza is second to none. It's definitely a place to go for pizza. read more

So before we get into food let me start off by saying that the staff and management that run this established was terrible. Yelled at me over the phone, because i got confused and started getting aggressive with me over the phone. I ordered fried calamari and spaghetti with red sauce, pasta was over cooked and the fried calamari tasted bitter, rubbery, and like it was rotten. I genuinely couldn't eat the food it tasted disgusting, overall really bad experience. read more

Pizza Wes horrible. It was so salty that I trashed it all in the garbage. I tried to call to get a refund but they were too busy to be bothered with me read more

Lovely new local pizza place, buy by the slice, or get a whole one, super quick service, good value and absolutely delicious. Venue is smart, trendy and clean. I'll be back! read more

great grandma pie! very flavorful and would definitely get again. solid cheese to sauce to crust ratios and crisp edges.

Rosa Pizza is not what is used to be. Never sat in and ate,but order a lot from the location on 21st Astoria. The last three times ordered grandma pizza. And another with half onion and mushrooms. The pizza was not cooked through and always tell them well done. Always have to reheat and cook a little more. The one thing that is consistent is their baked clams. Tasty delicious. For this I give 4 stars. Also asked if they can do fried shrimp which is not on the menu and they did send it along. Not greasy very good as well. Try it you might like it... cheers!! read more

Penne Vodka I happen to drive past this place and I was craving penne vodka. I called in my order since it was almost closing time.. It turned out to be super tasty and the portion was big enough for two ppl. The garlic knots were so amazing too! I will return to this place! read more

I'd order the meatball and mushroom calzone $9 The calzone was so yuuuge, that it could've fed 20 African kids Monster size calzone and it was good too read more

Very good pizza. Stopped in after a run/walk with a group and had the margharita. So good. Next time warm it up a bit more, plenty of customers coming in for pizza, I appreciate quality ingredients - many businesses are closing because the cost of food and lacking quality. Thank you! read more

One of the best pizza in queens. Great customer service. They even have a gluten free option.

Waited for an hour and a half - pizza arrived stone cold. So disappointing! The first time we ordered from here was better (slow but hot) but this time was so sad. How did it get so cold?? read more

I live dangerously close to Rosa's, they are the best thing to happen to the neighborhood, and I'm thankful they are here. Everything I've had at Rosa's has been delicious, the staff are always friendly and welcoming. My fave slices are the grandma, margarita, and Caesar salad. Other faves are their chicken roll and rice balls. Highly recommended!! read more

They are theee best. I get the grandma, Caesar and regular slices. I ask them for well done and I get it that way!!! The dough has flavor as opposed to tasting like paper. The sauce is tangy and rich at the same time. Cannot go wrong. Highly recommend. read more

This place is a contender for best pizza in Astoria! Their pies are huge and have plenty of toppings to choose from, made fresh to order. Their Buffalo Chicken and BBQ Chicken pizzas are delicious and the regular Pepperoni Pizza is a must-have. Compliments to the entire staff for always giving excellent service and a special shout to the manager for throwing in some bonus garlic rolls! read more

This is our favorite place!!! Food is great, consistent and fairly priced. My kids love it and we are probably there at least once a week. Charlie, Beto and the rest of the staff are amazing. Keep up the good work, the good food and the right attitude. Love the wings, chicken parm and the broccoli. read more

Usually good pizza, but beware the horrible customer service if you order delivery! When I moved to Astoria, I was thrilled to learn that Rosa's Pizza, which apparently was related to the Rosa's at Penn Station, was just around the block from me. While the food is usually excellent, it can be inconsistent and the customer service is horrible. Earlier this week my fiancé ordered online. One of the slices she ordered was the eggplant slice. When it was delivered, it was perfect. Thin, crisp, delicious pieces of fried eggplant, sauce, and large dollops of ricotta cheese. We had friends from out of town the next night, and they wanted NY pizza. So we ordered from Rosa's, this time on the phone. We received the order and one of our items, a salad, was missing. We also received 2 eggplant slices that were made completely different from the slice we had the previous night. These eggplant slices looked like plain cheese pizza slices that had eggplant added to them when they were reheated. We called Rosa's about the salad and the slices. We're all human, and sometimes, items get missed in delivery. No big deal. We discussed the slices as well. We explained what we ordered and received 24 hours ago and asked if the two slices could be made the same way and sent with the salad. We were told ok. When the salad arrived there was no pizza. So we called them again. A very rude woman explained that Rosa's doesn't make the pizza we were describing, and in an extremely unprofessional manner, asked, "do you want us to send you the ricotta cheese?" I asked to speak with supervisor. A man named Carlos, who refused to give me the name of his rude colleague, also explained to me that it didn't matter what I received the previous night, he knows how the pizza is made and we got exactly what we ordered and we would not be receiving what we asked for. I am baffled by the complete lack of courtesy and professionalism displayed by both Carlos and his colleague. I did not invent the recipe for the pizza we ordered and received, and even if they don't usually make the eggplant slice the way they described, I don't understand why they wouldn't make it the way we had received it the previous night! What a poor way to represent what should be a fantastic business. Instead of impressing my friends from out of town with amazing pizza, we were disappointed by this horrible experience. read more

Been in the neighborhood (31st Ave & 21st St) since '14 and was left cold and humiliated after each attempt at finding a good pizza spot. When I saw this place's sign being installed I knew my life was about to change. This is the type of slice where the quality of the sauce shines through, especially on a piece Grandma's and Sicilian. Tried the meatball and chicken parm grinders (WMASS represent!) and wasn't so impressed, but for slices this place is good. Damn good. Moving this month, and I'm gonna miss you Rosa. We'll always have that time you forgot to put half of my order in the oven and afterwards threw me some free mozzarella stocks. Be well my love. read more
