I was in urgent need of a bathroom, and the 7-Eleven nearby wouldn’t allow me to use theirs. Someone there kindly suggested I try Cucina Pizza around the corner.

When I arrived, I explained the situation to the owner and mentioned that a customer from 7-Eleven had sent me. The owner welcomed me without hesitation and allowed me to use the restroom with genuine kindness.

The food looked and smelled amazing, the atmosphere was pleasant, and everyone there had a smile and was happy to help me during a moment of real need. The owner was especially hospitable.

Based on that experience alone, I would absolutely recommend this place and would love to return to eat there.

Pizza Cucina in North Merrick surprised me with their unique grandma slice topped with eggplant—something I’ve never seen before. The flavor profile really works, with the slight bitterness of the eggplant balancing out the sweetness of the sauce and a nice touch of salt throughout. The crust has a solid undercarriage, giving it that perfect crisp bite, and the portion is big and satisfying. Definitely a standout slice and a great value—worth checking out if you’re in the area and want something a little different.

I recently tried this pizza place for the first time, and overall, I had a great experience. I ordered the regular slice, grandma slice, and vodka slice, and while all three were good, the grandma slice definitely stood out as the best. The crust was thin, with just the right amount of crisp, and it wasn’t overly burnt like some places tend to do. As for pricing, it’s pretty standard for pizza, but honestly, it was worth the price for the quality of the slices. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Burnt and somehow also soggy crust. Pizza was folded into the box and the wings are soggy with borderline no sauce. Worst pizza I’ve bought on long island

The pizza is good however the pasta/ other food items are not great. I had ordered whole wheat pasta with marinara sauce. The amount of garlic was overwhelming. The portions are huge so you will have leftovers which is nice.

Not the first time, or second, if you can’t put enough shrimp on the hero to cover even half the bread then it shouldn’t be on the menu. Lacking shrimp, sauce, and cheese. If costs have gone up then just raise the price instead of selling it like this.

I bumped it up to 3 stars because the sandwich is good, just severely lacking. Everything else here is great, pizza is our go to.

Great place! This place is not affiliated with the little cucina in south merrick. Came with my brother and nephew. We got a variety of slices including Sicilian,buffalo,bbq,grandma and garlic knots. All were great and the staff and owner were all very friendly. Darlene the owner was very friendly as well.

Today was the second day I ordered in a week. The food is amazing. The slices and chicken rolls are so appealing to the eye. Great specials are available. You will definitely not be disappointed if u pop in for a bite!

We just ordered pies for our school’s FunDay. We ordered pies for over 250 students plus staff. Not only was Darlene and her staff amazing leading up to our event, they were hands down the best the day of! They had the pizza’s ready for all three pick ups and were accommodating when we asked to cut some pies into smaller pieces. We love our Merrick Pizza Cucina!! Thank you so much for the delicious pizza!

I must express my profound disappointment over recent events that have drastically changed my perspective toward a business I once held in high regard. It pains me to write this, but after spending approximately $10,000 at this establishment in less than a year—a significant sum that any mom-and-pop restaurant would value—I feel compelled to voice my frustrations. My loyalty as a thrice-weekly patron, ordering from the confines of a nursing home, was met with shocking disregard.

Up until now, my complaints were few—merely a handful in almost a year, with only one order ever needing to be remade. This minimal history of complaints makes the recent accusation by the owner that I frequently complain not only baseless but deeply offensive. What exactly am I supposed to be complaining about regularly? That I didn’t get the extra sauce that you always charge me for, the sheet of aluminum foil that I was charged $3 one time and $1 on other times but I never complained about that or the missing plates because I’m confined to a nursing home? I’m surprised you didn’t charge me for the plates! The suggestion is absurd and insulting.

The catalyst for this outburst was a severely mishandled pizza delivery by a driver who seemed unaware of how to properly handle food. When I called to address the issue, the response from Dorene was dismissive at best, and it only worsened when I was asked to send pictures which I suggested due to her disbelief to prove the poor state of my order. The situation escalated when the same driver returned, rudely denying any fault, and blaming me for the mishap. His unprofessionalism was starkly evident to the security staff who witnessed our exchange, yet when I spoke to Dorene’s husband, the owner, he sided with the driver, dismissing my concerns and shouting over my attempts to explain, claiming a headache from our conversation.

This lack of respect and basic customer service has left me not just unheard, but actively in shock. More than two hours passed without any clear resolution— just empty promises of a return call that never materialized. I had to call, ask for my money back but Dorene said that the pie is on the way. It’s appalling to realize that “The customer is always right” is merely a hollow mantra here when loyalty is met with such blatant indifference.

This incident has unveiled a harsh truth about a business I once trusted, highlighting a lack of integrity and a disregard for loyal customers. The owner exaggerated the facts, insisting he had to see the pizza himself to believe my complaint, questioning why I would lie when I had never asked for anything free in the year of my patronage—except once being credited for a spaghetti with meat sauce when I received a pasta bolognese with cream sauce instead. Yet the night before I asked for the same thing and got it right but then wrong the next day!

Dorene claimed the first photo of the mishandled pizza “looked like a slice was out of place,” the driver said the whole pie by looked fine when he came back to pick it up, despite the visible evidence and the shock of the security guards. This kind of treatment is unacceptable, and I am compelled to take my business elsewhere. “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.” Here is the photo of the pizza as it arrived. Does this look fine? For a customer that never asked you for anything free and only had one meal remade in one year? I bet you’re scratching your heads trying to remember if there were other times. Unbelievable.
