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.

Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

Employee didn't want to be there! And took it out on us!! We got there late about 30 minutes before closing time. We asked if they were still serving and the guy had so much attitude but said, "Yes". We asked for a Pepperoni to-go, nothing special, he's slamming stuff around. We were standing at the counter and he tells us (with attitude), "You can go sit down or go outside and walk around." My wife says to the guy, "We don't want to be a bother, if you're getting ready to close." He says again, with even more attitude, "I"m Just sayin' go sit down or walk around outside!" We said, "No thanks." and exited. Sadly we didn't even get to try the pizza. The guy was a real jerk. Straight out of "Jersey Shore". I CANNOT advise anyone going to this place.

The pizza and cheesy bread was very good. Lasagna tasted like my own. I would come back. :)

Pretty good pizza and they deliver! I would totally get pizza here again! They delivery was prompt and the pizza was tasty. It was a little pricey for the quality, but the real estate in St. Armand's is expensive- so it's totally understandable! It did the trick for what we were looking for!

We stopped by this place to have pizza and the food was not fresh, the staff was extremely rude and literally we will never recommend to anyone to eat at this location. The guys at the register looked like they just got out of jail and look very dirty. Awful place in such a great location!

Dependable pizza spot when we are in town with the family for our yearly vacation! Make sure you leave room for the cannoli.
(3)Laurel A.
Pizza was great. Service was slow and server never asked if we wanted refills on our drinks the whole time.
(4)Rob G.
Lousy service with an automatic 18% gratuity. Food is mediocre and certainly not worth what they charge here. We had some of the poorest service I've experienced in a long time. AVOID

The pizzas are cooked in a traditional Gas oven giving them the american style pizza taste. We were told that the pizzas would take aprpoximately 20 minutes to be made and cooked. Pizzas were cooked almost to the minute - now whilst they were what we ordered they did not look the part and left us a little unsure as to what they would taste like...however, don't judge a book by it's cover.... The pizzas were tasty despite not looking the part and we would come back again!

We ordered 3 large pizzas for delivery in Lido key on December 27th. One half cheese and half mushroom, one veggie and one cheese. The delivery took 45 minutes. The total was $57/-. Two of the pizzas were crammed into containers too small for them so the corners were bent and the cheese had slid off, The half and half pizza was fine. The second, the veggie pizza was half cooked (this half was ok) and the other half soggy and undercooked. But the third, the cheese one was the real disaster, it was bent, half the cheese had flowed over the other half and completely off the crust, and was Inedible. We called and after we explained politely, they said (upon our request) that they would send a replacement for the 3rd pizza. The replacement arrived after 20-25 mins and was better cooked. We will probably not be ordering from here again because of the quality issues, despite the location convenience, although they deserve some consideration for sending us a replacement. Also deserve points for friendliness. Lastly, the eat in experience could be different, especially when they are not as busy.

I would love to support this little mom n pop place but it's like they don't even try!!!! Terrible pizza, self serve to the point where you have to pick up a piping hot pizza dish yourself(they give you paper plates to use as oven mitts). They need to rethink their business and service levels if they plan to last.

I ordered delivery and the service was courteous and quick. The lasagna was more than enough to share! And the side salad was very fresh. Prices were also reasonable.
(4)Tonya L.
Best calzone ever! Added sausage and pepperoni and ordered it well done! Delivery was fast and food was wonderful! Ask for plastic forks and plates or you won't get them!
(5)Nicholas C.
Nice staff but shabby store with bad smell and mediocre pizza.
(2)Shelley B.
The best pizza on St. Armands, which isn't saying a lot, but it is what it is. Pizzas are on the small side for the price and tend to be overly salty (like salted with a shaker salty). That said, their pizza looks like manna from the gods compared to the stuff served at Venezia across the street. No brainer. This place has been on the Circle quite a while and the people working there are really friendly. Pull up around back for take out (FYI snowbirds) so as not to block the flow of traffic.

My fiance and I had a discount offer here so decided to eat dinner here on a Friday night. You can't really beat the location as it's right in the middle of the famous St. Armand's Circle. Which means, you can walk around and window shop to help burn off all the pasta and pizza you just guzzled down. This is definitely no fancy place; just your average little pizza shop that also offers your average Italian dishes. We had the mozzarella caprese for an appetizer, which was good and for dinner, I had the penne Alfredo pasta and my fiance had a cal-zone. Both dishes were huge portions and we were both pleasantly surprised by how good they tasted. Not exactly home cooking but pretty darn good. Our server was amazing. She was slammed with tables but still did a wonderful job. I special ordered my dinner and it came out right. She was very friendly and always smiling. We didn't try the pizza but from taking a peep at the tables around us that did, it sure looked good. We may have to come back and have a slice!

Yes, i'm a fan. It's true that the place itself is not much to look at. But, the pizza is tasty! I come here whenever i go to St. Armands or to Lido Beach. I always get 2 Sicilian slices and im NEVER unsatisfied by the taste.The bottom is nice and crunchy, just how i like it! I doctor up the pizza with some nearby seasonings and herbs. The service is always friendly. So, dont judge a book by a cover. Its yummy and you know it! Try it if you dont believe me.

Ordered a caesar salad to share and a Pepperoni and Sausage Pizza. The pizza was very good because of the good crumbly sausage which is hard to come by. Didnt expect much and it wasnt the best pizza I have ever eaten but not bad for the price and a good meal for when pizza sounds good.

Ordered Penne Pasta with Alfredo and Fra Diavalo and Cheese pizza. Portions were generous. Service was friendly. Food was mediocre.
(3)TAZS T.
Very Good and the best in the area.

above average Pizza
(4)Dylan R.
Nothing too amazing but not bad either. Pizza was pretty standard, didn't really wow me but it was enjoyable. Little expensive for the quality but it's on St Armand's so what would you expect.

Co-sign with Taz; this is above average pizza, but nothing beyond that. While staying the week at Lido Beach, la chica and I wanted some pizza delivered, and not some crappy chain pizza with mozzarella that has a bubble gum texture and never really seems to melt either. We are fans of NY-style pizza, so we did some digging and came up with Taste of Italy. While ordering, the first negative occurred; the guy said their "Extra Large" was only 16 inches. This is a major fail. An "Extra Large should be an 18" or larger, never less. Not wanting to hassle the poor guy who answered the phone with pizza size details, I just went ahead and ordered. Plus, I'm sure he was some teenager who could care less. We ordered a 16" cheese pie and a 2-liter of cola. I'm accustomed to paying about $12-14 for an 18" cheese, so there was some sticker shock when he told me the price was going to be $23 (second negative)! I gave La Wifey the stink eye, as if she was somehow responsible for the price, and then I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Welp, we're on vacation... Fugg it." The pizza arrived pretty quickly and the taste was "good enough." Nothing fantastic, but certainly better than the chain pizza options, so we were content and FULL. By default and close proximity to the Helmsley, this will become a regular spot for us while visiting Lido Beach.

I ordered a stromboli to be delivered to my work. When i got it i started to eat and noticed it had raw dough in it. Immediately i called them back to try and resolve the issue and he said they werent going to fix the problem and hung up on me. I called back and he threatened to call the cops and have me arrested for harassment. So bottom line is 1: i got undercooked food i couldnt eat 2: they would not refund for their mistake 3: he threatened to have me arrested cause i wanted them to fix the problem??!? Terrible customer service and undercooked food. Dont waste your time here, dont give them your hard earned money cause when they mess up your out that money and they will not give it back!!

Went for ice cream next door the previous night and thought it smelled great so we decided to try it the next day. Sat outside on the deck and ordered a large pizza. The service was quick and courteous. Fun to people watch in St. Armand's circle while waiting that's for sure! Anyways the pizza was ok nothing spectacular, and a bit greasy for me. The price was right though for what you get and the location is awesome.
