The atmosphere is very relaxing, with a comfortable yet slightly upscale atmosphere. The food and drinks are both amazing. Drinks are well prepared and the menu rotates with the seasons.

The pizzas are outstanding - toppings are all high quality and their weekly pizza specials are always unique and delicious. The salads, chicken entrees, and pasta are all excellent as well.

Giuseppe's Pizzeria and Bistro is upscale in the best way. Dark wood, brick floors, pendant lights over a small bar. The lights are dim but the room is inviting and intimate. When we arrived, it wasn't empty, wasn't slammed. Nothing felt rushed. Everything moved at the right pace, giving us time to talk, time to savor, time to just enjoy being there. Even after we paid, no one hurried us out. The room was filling up around us, but we never felt it. Fresh plates for every course. Water refilled when it emptied (not before we noticed, exactly when). Every time we said thank you, our server said "of course" like she truly meant it. The focaccia came out warm. Tear it open and you see irregular holes. That takes hours, not shortcuts. They bring whipped garlic butter because it spreads easier, but the bread's good enough alone. Four meatballs arrived, tender enough they fell apart as I tried to work them through the sauce. Took surgeon hands. Pool the red sauce on your plate or spoon some over the top of each bite. Without it, they're bland. With it, they're quite good. The pepperoni pizza came out right. Char on the crust, pepperoni curling into little grease cups, cheese stretching six inches on those first bites. The sauce is light. The crust ends taste a little like char and semolina. I'm a sauce guy. Always have been. This pizza wasn't what I look for, but the people around us all looked happy to be there and with their food. Giuseppe's making the pizza his customers want. Fruit crumble for dessert. Fresh blueberries and peaches, vanilla ice cream. I enjoyed the peach side more than the blueberries, which was unexpected. The peaches were a little less sweet. The blueberries? Really sweet. Fresh and enjoyable. Giuseppe's fills up for a reason. The service is the best I've experienced in months. People were taking their time, talking, enjoying everything that was in front of them. They seemed like they knew they were somewhere special. They got it right.

Athens Pizza in Greenville has been doing pizza like this since 1988. Family owned, fresh dough…read moremade every day, nearly four decades of feeding this corner of Rhode Island. I figured I knew what kind of pizza I was walking into by the name. Then I picked up a slice. Stiff. As. A. Board. And I mean that as a compliment. The crust was a little thicker than the Greek pies I am used to, which made what happened next even more interesting. There was absolutely no movement when I held it out by the back crust. None. So, naturally, I turned it over. There was the answer. That bottom was beautifully baked, deeply browned and absolutely crunchy. Not hard. Not dried out. Crunchy. The kind of crust that makes noise when you bite into it. That was the fascinating part for me. A little more thickness usually makes me expect a little more softness. Athens went the other way. The sauce was tasty. The amount of cheese was exactly right. And nobody at Athens was counting toppings. The pepperoni and black olives were everywhere. But I kept going back to that crust and smirking. I have eaten a lot of Greek pizza. But I love that there are still pies that can make me stop after the first bite, flip the slice over and start trying to figure out what just happened. Athens did that.

Some places are just restaurants. Others become part of your life. Athens Pizza House has been the…read morelatter for me. I grew up in neighboring Glocester during the 1980s and 1990s, and Athens was only about ten minutes from our house. It was the Friday or Saturday night dinner spot more times than I can count. Later, when I was in high school, it naturally became one of those places my friends and I would end up after school events or whenever we wanted a quick, inexpensive meal. It's one of those local institutions that has been woven into the fabric of the community for decades. Fast forward to today, and not much has changed, which is exactly why I love it. They've updated the inside over the years, making it brighter and more comfortable, but it still feels like Athens. It's still run by the same family, the service is still warm and welcoming, and the food tastes just like I remember. This isn't the place you go looking for trendy, wood-fired, artisanal pizza with imported toppings you've never heard of. Athens has never tried to be that, and it doesn't need to be. They make honest, consistently good pizza and grinders at prices that are hard to beat. Sometimes simple, done really well, is exactly what you're looking for. Our order has barely changed over the years. We usually get a cheese and pepperoni pizza, occasionally adding onions, along with two Italian grinders. Every single time the food comes out hot, fresh, and exactly what we expected. I honestly can't remember ever having a bad meal here, and that's saying something considering I've been eating here for more than thirty years. Service has always been friendly, the wait is usually reasonable even when they're busy, and getting in and out couldn't be easier. It's one of those dependable places you never have to think twice about. More than anything, I'm just grateful Athens Pizza House is still here. So many family-owned restaurants from my childhood have disappeared, but this one has stayed true to what made people love it in the first place. Every bite of that pizza feels like it did decades ago, and somehow the recipe seems untouched by time. I'll never stop coming here. In my opinion, Athens Pizza House isn't just one of the best family-owned pizza places in Rhode Island. It's one of the best family-owned restaurants, period.

There's another place in the hood of PVD that has pizza strips to DIE FOR lol so ya I'll risk it there lol. It's a lil bit on the salty side but overall decent. The spinach calzone could be more fulfilling with some olives and onions and perhaps more olive oil mixed in or to dip bc it was getting a bit dry and bland as you're eating it. On that note more than 1-2 slices of pepperoni coulda solved that issue! Otherwise it's decent if you're just looking for some "healthy" alternatives.

Pizzeria Romana

Disclaimer: I love Papa Gino's pizza. Not ironically. Not as some guilty pleasure I feel compelled…read moreto defend. I genuinely love it. The hand feel, the specific chew, the way the crust gives under your fingers. I could identify it just by touch, blindfolded in a lineup of a hundred pies. It's wired into me from countless visits over the last 30+ years, born in the taste of being young and hungry and not overthinking anything about quality, just taste and filling you up. So when I tell you that Pizzeria Romana, located right by the Lincoln Mall, is just like Papa Gino's dressed up for the prom, understand that I mean it as the highest compliment. This was a new stop this year on the Lord of the Pies circuit. We walked in with zero expectations. The space is warm without trying too hard. Black and white checkered tablecloths. Italian countryside murals on the walls. The staff greets you like they're happy you showed up, which is rarer than it should be. The cheese pizza is where this place reveals itself. Same Papa Gino's geometry: thin, sturdy, dependable. But elevated with ingredients that actually taste fantastic. The cheese blend brings provolone into the conversation, adding sharp, tangy notes that cut through the richness. Everything works. The crust has that holds its crispness on top, great chew in the middle, and just enough cornmeal texture underneath to remind you this thing came from a real oven. The pepperoni, though. It overwhelms. Too much salt, too much grease, too much of everything. It doesn't play well with others. It storms onto the plate and dominates, drowning out all those subtle cheese notes that made the plain slice sing. Stick with the cheese. Let the fundamentals do their work. What Pizzeria Romana understands, what Papa Gino's always understood, ipizza doesn't need to reinvent itself to be good. It needs good ingredients, technique, and the restraint not to screw it up with unnecessary flourishes. This is a nice neighborhood spot where you can bring a date or grab a pie with friends without pretension. The best thing a pizza can do is remind you why you fell in love with it in the first place. Pizzeria Romana does exactly that. Just hold the pepperoni.
