I've always walked or drove by the Luigi's pizza but never walked in. The name Luigi reminded me of Mario brothers so I never took it seriously. I was in the neighborhood and hungry so I decided to try out the place. Its not a fancy place and looks like a standard borough pizzeria but they had a lot of different pizza's available. I thought they would only have plain cheese like most places but thats not the case. They had all sorts of pizza and rolls available. I got the BBQ chicken slice and it was awesome. I am not easy to please but this slice hit the spot and I was going to buy a second but I on a diet.
This place won me over and I will be checking it out again.
You surprised me Luigi's. I grew up in this neighborhood and I remember this place with a different name. The pizza was blah nothing to write home about. Fast forward to now and I had the opportunity to try this place under the worst of circumstances. My car broke down right off the Jackie Robinson Parkway off Metropolitan Ave and I was stranded. My husband and my dad came to sit with me until the tow truck came and my dad came with some pizza from this place. Super good! The sauce is a little sweet and the crust is crisp with cornmeal and perfectly cooked. It soothed my sadness about my broken down car. We tried this place again to be sure that the pizza was good and it surely was. Definitely a place I will hit up often.
They say that you tend to love the pizza that you grew up with. This might be the case for me, but I'm more than a fan of this pizzeria. It used to be called Bella Rosa when I was growing up, and management changed over five years ago. But their selection has grown to the point where there's something for everybody.
Every pizzeria has garlic knots or pepperoni rolls, but this place takes it a step further with its spinach twists. At about a foot long, these thin crispy chewy sticks of goodness offer you more veggies than you're used to getting at a pizzeria. Along with marinara sauce for dipping, these make a great snack.
The pizza itself is probably slightly above average, some of the best in my opinion (but I'm biased because this is what I'm used to). I love the beef patties with mozzarella cheese too. Their pasta selection is pretty decent and quite tasty as well. They also have a great sandwich selection as well as a kickass chicken panini which is really grilled chicken breast on an over-sized garlic knot.
This place is great for a quick bite. So stop by and try a spinach twist!
With immense struggle from abject pain due to recent major surgery, I make the trek to Luigi's Pizza for lunch of either pasta or an entrée. I did not want pizza. Cheese Ravioli $8.00 was swimming in too much Marinara sauce. The Ravioli is huge therefore the quantity is about six pieces. I prefer smaller pieces and larger quantity on my plate. Fresh and served piping hot with Italian bread. Portion was rather small. I was eyeing the entrée platters and other pasta on their wall menu. The Chicken Marsala was extremely enticing to my stomach but unfortunately not to my budget as it was $12.50. I would like to return for it though.
Staff is fluent in Spanish and English. Oddly the Italian language is not present despite of the business name clearly emit Italian. A local pizzeria with traditional old fashioned pizzeria booths. Recent renovations of both interior and façade has clean-up the poor physical presentation.
Note: CASH ONLY. No credit or debit cards accepted in any shape, color or format.
Easily spotted from Atlantic Ave, the Luigi name spurred a memory. Something to the effect that the regular slices of pizza were very good, and they were.
Sweet sauce and quality mozzarella cheese, well balanced and in harmony on top of a sturdy thin crust.
Slices priced exactly as I had been expecting walking in, but it was early and my presence wasn't well received. Lots of grunting and groaning fur a simple slice, grated Parmesan really gave the counter man the blues.
He slid my slice at me with a hint of aggressive aggression, me late wrist twist of skill to throw me off, add a steely glare and i was on my way out.
Too bad, the pizza was quite enjoyable.
