Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

This morning at the pool I overheard people talking about delicious Italian food at reasonable prices at Bob's. I immediately googled the restaurant and decided we needed to try it. I'm so glad we did. The restaurant looks like a strip mall pizza take out store front, but it's completely different inside. It was a warm family atmosphere with live music. Our waitress, Savannah, was very attentive and patient with my gluten free questions. Sadly, they didn't have gluten free pasta, but she steered me towards the very tasty mussels fradiavlo which were nice and spicy with a rich garlicky tomato sauce. I could have eaten a bowl of it. My mother-in-law loved the lasagna, which she commented had a rich delicious sauce and my husband enjoyed Big Bob's Pasta Combo, for a taste of everything. It was well worth the 15 minute wait for a table. It was nice to be able to share our compliments with the owner who stopped by our table. We will definitely go back for more.

Some what dismayed, I read the reviews, I thought the pizza would rock. Or perhaps I ordered the wrong pizza. I ordered the stuffed pizza, and it's devoid of flavor. It was just slightly better then ugh. Everything from hot chicken wings to the pizza was just plain, nothing jumped out at me. Not saying that Big Bobs is a total loss, but I wouldn't order the stuffed pizza again.

We moved here about two years ago. We had pizza 2 or 3 times a month. It has usually been pretty good and good service. The last timed we ordered the pizza it was soggy and cold. We live 25 min away so we didn't want to drive back. We called the restraunt Explained the problem and we were given a credit for our next pizza. We called in today to use our credit and we're told we already used. They called the owner and he said he crossed it off because our pizza couldn't have been soggy. We'll it's very poor business management and all for a 12 dollar pizza. Sorry we wont be back there again.. beware if you're unhappy with something they.might call you a liar too.

Wow. In a good way. A hair too much breadcrumbs in the stuffed clams and the garlic rolls need to be swimming in butter, not just kissed by it. But nitpicking aside, the pizza margarita was fresh and delicious with fresh basil leaves and creamy mozzarella. The rolls were soft, warm and light (garlic butter was good, but scarce). The stuffed clams were fresh and cooked perfectly, but needed a bit more clam. The wine list was a nice surprise. About 30 options and not a Yellow Tail to be found (mercifully). I had a nice little Puglia Primitivo with loads of juicy fruit. This is a hidden gem. Eat here. Now.

Located in a rural area of central Florida in a strip mall north of Weir Lake, Big Bob's is a great and pleasant surprise. Wonderful Italian cuisine, great service and a surprisingly attractive decor. The lasagna was excellent - always my test for an Italian restaurant. I recommend Big Bob's.

This place was recommended by a couple of people so we decided to try it and was very impressed. does not look like much from the outside when you walk in wow. We definitely will go back.

Bob is usually there to cast his personality over the patrons. The food is excellent & so is the wait staff. Some nights there is live (dj) music so it gets crowded because it's small but its so much fun. This is the way restaurants used to be!!!

This place was great! Small hole in the wall, but great food. No liquor, but they have beer and wine. Got the fettuccini Alfredo with shrimp and it was rich and delicious. If you're into real, heavy Italian cooking, check this place out.

Had the clams w/linguini. Big disappointment. Tasted like the opened a couple cans of minced, heated up and served. Looks like it will remain a pizza and Stromboli place to me.

Big Bob's is located in a gas station on the north side of Hwy 25 in western Ocklawaha. It is the best restaurant in town. We had the pizza and it is the best we've had in FL. The menu is typical of an Italian restaurant. I will be coming back.

Went to visit some friends in Ocala and they took me here for dinner. What a great surprise, the food was great! The good news? They are expanding next door. I ordered Meat Lasagna.... very, very good! So if you visit Ocala, stop here for lunch or dinner.... excellent!

The new addition is open and looks awesome! The food quality is still top notch as well as the service and people.

Pleasantly surprised. Tuesday night included entertainment, needed reservations and still had to wait. Worth it! Very tasty Italian food, great service. Good portions and reasonable prices. Not fancy but very friendly. Will be back.
