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.
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.

This was a great spot to stop and have breakfast on a Monday morning. The staff is very nice and our meals tasted great. There is a noticeable difference when a restaurant uses fresh ingredients. I had an omelette that could have used a bit more sausage, but it was tasty. My wife had bananas foster French toast that I really enjoyed finishing it for her. They offer fresh fruit smoothies and make a good Bloody Mary.

We ended up eating here because Refuel was over crowded. We walked into an empty restaurant and were kinda skeptical about our decision. Hunger pains ruled so we had a seat and took our chances. I had a breakfast panini subbed sausage for the ham. Imo the bread could have been crispier but the eggs and sausage were yummy. Some of the best grits I have had though. The roasted potatoes were a let down as they were simply under salted hash browns. The food was a pleasant surprise. The service was decent. They definitely tried. The manager lady came and brought us 2 Glamour magazines and a week old Where Yat magazine and put them on the table. We didn't care for that too much as none of us were there to read Glamour magazine at brunch. Last complaint was the dubstep and edm that was playing. Way too early in the am to be dropping the bass. Not too mention we were slightly hungover. I'd probably go back again as an option 3 if I'm looking for a quick bite with no wait.

good location + ok good = place to go when you need to eat and everything else is packed My boyfriend and I came here during the rain after going to 3 other places that were closed. We were starving and he had heard the place was good. I ordered Hot Chocolate and that was very good. We then started with the Mushroom Bruschetta which was not at all what we expected it to be. It was super rich and creamy on top of English muffin like bread. It was almost what I expect eggs Benedict to be like, rich and heavy. He had a Caprese panini which they made without the meat and I had pancakes. His was good but mine wasn't so hot. When butter was placed on them the butter didn't melt one bit. They tasted a bit like the pancakes that come out of the freezer section of the store. My boyfriend ate the rest of mine and he liked them. Not sure we would go back but good to know there is a local stop that will always have seating inside and a place to get a hot coco!

This place has solid pizza and a great brunch/breakfast. Service is really friendly. The cheesy bread is great and their breakfast burrito is a great tasting breakfast that won't make you have to take a nap for the rest of the afternoon. The atmosphere is not the best. It's a bit drab, but the friendly service and good breakfast make up for it.
(4)El Raul S.
Good delivery deal. Had a large veggie which came with a 2 liter of sofa and dessert chocolate cake for $17. The pizza got here quick (Carrolton and Sycamore) and was pretty damn tasty. Pizza and Notre Dame gong down made for a great dinner!
(4)Ashley S.
I love this place, the owner is really friendly and is always there! if you ever go there I suggest the cheesy bread with a glass of mango lemonade! I work around the corner and go there all the time!
(5)Cam F.
Had a tasty California omelet and eggs Benedict, very good and great value too, Prices are very reasonable. The folks who run this place are wonderful too. I also recommend the lunch salads. It has a nice atmosphere. They deliver too :).

Disappointing 4 times. I am done with 2nd chances on this place. Last stopped here for a late Saturday breakfast and we let the waitress know we were in a bit of a hurry. First, the good...the eggs in the Omelet were fluffy and perfectly done. Also, they got us turned around and out the door in 24 minutes. Kudos. Now the bad...the potatoes were microwaved. Seriously? That is a true no-no in a breakfast place. There's no excuse. Breakfast taters are cooked in batches so there should have been some ready to go. In a hurry or not, I don't want bad food and that is just plain bad. Next, the coffee was terrible: a D. How hard is it to make a decent pot of coffee? Put this one on the owner...he buys the cheapest. Across the street at Refuel the coffee is always good to excellent, at similar prices. So the coffee and potatoes ruined an otherwise good breakfast. Sorry for being a grump, but the management needs to know.

I soooooo want to love this place, and I do, just not for the food. It's ok, not great. I've had pizza, salad and the breakfast wrap. But these people are so freakin' nice, I always want to go back. They're welcoming, hospitable and gave me a magazine to read when I was waiting for my order. I'll eat here again, I'm sure.
(3)Jessica T.
Love love love this place! Been there a handful of times so far and it's delicious. My favorites are the huevos rancheros and the Nutella and berry crepe. I think most people just pass it up but it's def a spot that you should visit. I personally think the huevos rancheros at cafe pepperoni are better than the place across the street (la Macarena).
(5)Mrs M.
Very tasty breakfast, open on Mardi Gras morning. Huevos rancheros surprisingly tasty (and we're from California). Also the specialty crepe was delicious. Skip the mimosa over priced and under sized. Over all, quite good place

Came here for a quick lunch with my girlfriend on a whim. We got breadsticks to start, and they were good - freshly baked with a good sauce, and a ton of them. But her chicken caesar wrap and my chicken caprese panini were somewhat disappointing. The pita used in the wrap was not good, and they didn't use romaine lettuce, so the lack of crunch left something to be desired. And they forgot the tomatoes on my panini (not that I'm a big fan of them anyway). Our fresh squeezed lemonades were very sugary, and the whole meal seemed a little too expensive. We will likely not be back.
(2)Jason K.
Excellent friendly service and delicious food! Highly recommend eating here. The fresh juice is refreshing and wonderful. We had bananas foster French toast, New Orleans omelette, and crawfish pasta - it was all very tasty!
(5)Rachel U.
I truly love the folks at Pepperoni's, and the food is pretty good, too! We used to balk at going here because they'd plaster our door with fliers all too frequently, but I finally took some visiting guests to get breakfast. This restaurant has consistent food and consistent service-- both of which are excellent! The waiters are always kind and attentive. I can be a real stickler for service and this place has won me over. The food is well-priced and tasty. The menu has a wide variety-- not just pizzas, but the paninis are great, too! I like the Masterpiece Pizza and the Chicken Caprese panini. Breakfast is also awesome, and it's rocking to have an easy breakfast in this neighborhood that isn't crowded all the time. Nutella Crepe is awesome, the Bananas Foster French Toast is good (although sweet and carb-coma inducing!), and they serve a solid Huevos Rancheros. I've been pleased with all of my food orders. Although I haven't done it yet, the concept of having waffles delivered to my house is enticing. Don't miss out on ordering a special drink. Raspberry Tea is remarkable, and the Mango Lemonade is to die for. We've also brought our own wine to cork and they're happy to accommodate! I like this place. I like coming by and I love bringing people to it. A+, I hope they do well since they are on the wrong-way of a one-way street and parking could be hard for patrons-- I'd recommend parking in the lot across from China Orchid/Walgreens, or behind the building in the meter spots.
(5)Christine W.
Best kept secret in New Orleans! Incredibly friendly staff. Outstanding breakfast-- try the eggs sardou and the banana strawberry juice! We go every weekend and have never been disappointed.

I purchased a Groupon for Pepperoni's, knowing that pizza is my munchkin's favorite food and it was a good deal. Today was our first time here. It's a nice little space with a casual vibe. We ordered a large pizza to share, with some drinks and the garlic cheese bread. Note: the bread could be a meal in itself, so definitely save room for the main event if you order it. It's almost $7 for an order of it, but that price is justified by the fact that it is HUGE and delicious. The pizza was even better. We got the Deluxe, which is loaded with cheese and toppings. The sauce is good, and there was a perfect ratio of crust/sauce/cheese/toppings. Speaking of the crust, it wasn't too thick or too thin. It also had a very fresh taste to it, compared to the mass-produced taste of chain pizza. Even without a Groupon, I'll come back. It's reasonably priced with great service and great food! Also, yes, this is definitely a kid friendly place. They have a kids' menu, and even brought over a coloring book and crayons.

This is a great breakfast place! My friend and I went here after finding the long line across the street. I needed to eat and run, so I didn't have time to wait for a table. I was always wary of this place because it was part of the frat-tastic side of uptown, and getting door hangers from them, I wasn't too impressed. I am so glad that I came in! The food was soo good. I got an omlet that pretty good, but my friend ordered the fruit and nutella crepe. Amazing. It was so amazing, i ordered one to go for another friend, and she proclaimed that it was AMAZING too. I also love that the waitress asked if we wanted our coffee to go. Some people have told me it's pretty common, but this is a first for me. a free refill cup to go! YAY! It made my morning so much brighter.
(5)Kim-Thao H.
I'm going to keep this review simple. I came here with a big group of friends because Milk Bar was too crowded. I tried the Seafood Pasta and the Chicken Caprese; Both were underwhelming. The portion of the pasta was minimal and so was the flavor. I also came again another day because we received a buy one get one free coupon for breakfast. I ordered the Bananas Foster French Toast and my friend ordered the Breakfast Wrap; again, very underwhelming. I won't be coming back unless a friend insists.
(2)Alex H.
I began as a Pepperoni's customer for lunch when my wife and I passed by on a hungry afternoon. The service was fantastic and I was impressed with the variety and quality of the food. Fast forward about a year, I now use Pepperoni's Cafe for nearly every catering order of my organization. They execute catering on every level (from pizza for 400 high school students, to business lunches, to a semi-formal dinner event, and even a week long conference) and never disappoint with their quality of food and prices. Since I am almost a weekly customer of Pepperoni's, I have had the pleasure of getting to know the owners and staff very well. They are extremely nice, helpful, responsive, and will go above and beyond for their customers. I will continue to recommend this great local restaurant to anyone looking for pizza, catering, or just a great New Orleans meal. Give it a try, I will always be glad I did.

NOLA is famous for several different things. But, unfortunately my experience at this cafe lacked those several things. We stopped into this little joint our last night in New Orleans and remained hopeful despite an empty restaurant. The decor and ambiance seemed modern chic and was clean, they have TVs and also offer a range of different desserts in there glass fridge. Service was good, only one waitress/cashier working, and she was still attentive even though we were the only customers. I ordered the seafood pasta, which we were told was the most popular, my sister had the chicken alfredo, and my bro in law had the shrimp po boy. My meal came and it didn't look good, but I still had hope!! Some of the noodles were still hard and stuck together, not full cooked?! yikes! The sauce was bland for my taste and the shrimp was rather small and didn't have much taste either. I give this place 3 stars because the service was good, however the food just did not deliver on what NOLA is known for, great southern food. Maybe next time I'm in NOLA the food here will taste a bit better to me, but it just wasn't that tasty to me.
(3)Lynn W.
Great lunch specials. Very nice for groups, good for the eat and run lunch. I usually get the bowl of soup, salad and mini pizza for lunch. The vegetarian pizza is really divine. Really quick delivery in the Uptown area.The owner usually delivers the food.
(4)Nick C.
Giving this place one star is one more than they deserve. HORRIBLE food. I ordered the VIP turkey panini, talk about cheap, poor quality food. The 'homemade' bread was mushy and wet (undercooked) the turkey and cheese were shredded like they came out of a bin to make omelets, and there wasn't a crunch to be had with the soggy veggies.... or lack of veggies i should say. I asked for avocados and received small traces of some store bought guacamole, i had to pull the sandwich apart to see if there was any green in it. I ended up leaving it all on the plate and walking out hungry and pissed at the 15$ of disappointment i just spent. I should have known when it was empty on mardi gras across from Refuel which had a line out the door. DONT EAT HERE. waste of time and money
(1)Tarana G.
Slow food and me and my sis were only customers. Waitress was very friendly. My calzone wasn't that good, not enough cheese and too much marinara sauce. Wasn't impressed but my sister liked her panini.
(3)Debbie A.
Worst service ever. Food was average at best, but even if the food had been decent I would never go back because the service was that bad. Don't waste your time or money.
(1)Christi H.
The worst! Seafood pasta was not as described on the menu. Pasta had a very fishy taste and the presentation was horrible.
(1)Corey K.
I love this place -- the pizza is like Ray's in NY (great) and the owners are really friendly and welcoming. Quick reliable delivery, good sandwiches too. Definitely worth a visit!
(5)Torea T.
Why was my omelet brown? The cook obviously doesn't know how to cook eggs. Overdone, brown eggs made into a lazy semi-folded omelet. The description seemed great on paper. I was expecting a fluffly omelet filled with spinach, peppers, sundried tomatoes, and cheese. I received an overcooked salty egg mess with vegetables randomly stuck into it. In addition to the burnt, brown parts, the rest of the omelet was an odd gray color(which I assume is from the pan). The only reason I went here is because Refuel doesn't do takeout on the weekends. It's true that I am no longer hungry but I don't think I'll be back to Pepperoni's Cafe for their breakfast. Perhaps their pizza and whatever else they serve is great but I doubt I'll ever find out.
(2)C.Rose P.
An obviously new, funky little restaurant. My boyfriend fiends for their muffalotta! They have a few half-assed veggies options for me, but that better than I can say for most of the city! The decor is nice, a little cold, but clean. The service is good, and the game is always on!
(3)Daniel M.
Stopped in for brunch with mom. Very clean, with a diner feel. Service was nice. I had eggs on tortillas with black beans. Not a lot of flavor, but it wasn't horrible. We really wished we had the pizza but didn't think of it until we had already ordered...we WERE in a place called Pepperoni's with pizza boxes stacked to the ceiling...probably should have had the pizza.
(3)Sophia K.
Though the service was slow it was friendly. Have enjoyed their omelets for a while but decided to try them for lunch. The express combo was a nice trio of small portions for those having trouble making decisions. The paninni and salad we ok but the tomato soup was the best i've ever had.
(4)Mike G.
Just lunched today at Pepperoni's Cafe, gotta say it exceeded my expectations today. The last time I stopped by was about 2.3 years ago. (Yes, I am a very exactly person) If my recollection serves me, which it does!, I ordered a calzone that took like 30min to come out and cost a bit more than I wanted to spend that evening. Nonetheless, that was then, this is now. I'm a bit of a pizza snob being from the great pizza state of New York so I spared them a sniping and went for a Super Vegetarian Panini. This was a very good decision. The SVP's bread was nice and crispy, pressed well and had a garlic aioli on top. It also had both black and green olives! Way to be thorough. The service was prompted and amicable. Nice touch by the waitress in curating the magazine selection for me. I'm not big on their decor or music selections, but it tis what it tis. This place is probably best for take-out or delivery anyhow. They hit me with a free dessert today, what was that all about!? Chocolate cake with a cherrt on top. (YEA MY LIFE'S LIKE THAT SOMETIMES!) Happy Mardi Gras indeed. Bottom Line: Go give Pepperoni's a try, lunch, dinner, or take out.
(4)AMarshall A.
Service and food were great! Would definitely return and recommend to friends. The only problem was that it was a little pricey but it was good!
(4)Joshua R.
Been here for lunch and breakfast. Started with lunch and it was ok not great but ok. Staff was helpful. Came for breakfast and it was horrible! Day old bacon barely warmed, slow service (they were catering another event and sent follow on customers away), coffee was tepid. Just bad breakfast. Should have said something but did not.
(1)Lynn h.
Do not get sucked into their breakfast. Opted to try them because place across the street was crowded. Their menu touted "famous potatos" with breakfast. As soon as the waiter set my plate down I could smell the freezer burn on them. Also, used frozen vegetables. Nothing fresh or flavorable. $2.50 for a plain cup of coffee...really? I have two stars for staff only. Food was overpriced and underwhelming.
(2)Bond T.
Stopped in for a quick smoothie that I had heard about from a trusted friend. I got the Mango smoothie and it was amazing. Very refreshing and just what I needed to jump-start my hung over Friday!
(5)Liz T.
cool, cheap, and delicious lunch specials but never seems like there's any business. the servers really try to push their sales! all around, good experience though!
