Cute pizza place with cozy pub vibes, decent pizza, and a long happy hour menu 3pm to close with a solid selection. Was a nice spot to meet up with the girls for a holiday catch-up sesh!

We ordered some items from the happy hour menu to share – the cheese pizza, the Brussel sprouts, and the bruschetta. The cheese pizza was a good size – more than enough for the four of us to share along with our other items. It was a pretty good pizza – nice flavor overall with just the right amount of cheese and sauce and a nice texture to the crust. I’d definitely order a pizza here again.

The brussel sprouts were ample but bland and I was disappointed. Same with the bruschetta- the bread was nice but it was surprisingly bland for a bruschetta. The portions are very generous, especially given that these were off the happy hour menu, but I wouldn’t get these again.

They have some booth seating available circled around a bar area – the vibe is mostly cozy pub style mixed with a little sports bar feel. They also have a banquet hall separated by a small thin wall – there was a large party going on that was very loud so it was a tad challenging to carry on our convo. But it’s the holiday season and it contributed to a festive, lively vibe overall.

Service was a tad slow and the servers seemed stressed and maybe overwhelmed- possibly by the large party in the banquet room?

Prices were very good – especially for the area. I didn’t see any parking lot – there’s free street parking in the area but it gets crowded easily.

I’d come again to meet up with girls since it’s a good location for us – definitely a good spot for holiday parties and other gatherings.

Great service. Absolutely deliciousfood. Pasta needed a lil salt but other then that everything was perfect calamariwas nice n chewys. And pizza was just as i expected from an Italian restaurant thin and crispy flavorful and delicious. Also tried the sub n it was packed with meat veggies n cheese made it hard to bite but was good and satisfying. 10/10 definitely coming back and bring my kiddos to enjoy cus what kid doesn’t love pizza. While I enjoy some more pasta and try something new like the calzones.

I have to say, this is one of the best Italian food I’ve had in a long time!
Lunch Portion Beef Lasagna: Lasagna made from homemade meat sauce, ricotta cheese, and topped with parmesan cheese. Served with garlic bread and salad (Caesar shown). Meat sauce is so good. Tastes like nonna made it, fully of flavor! Lunch portion was pretty hearty with garlic bread and salad. Caesar dressing was a little light, maybe more anchovy?
Personal 10” Chicken Pesto Pizza: Pesto sauce, mozzarella cheese, chicken, sliced tomato, artichoke, mushrooms, and garlic. Personal size was larger than expected. Full of pesto flavor and garlic!
Carbonara: Creamy spaghetti with cured pork, pepper, and Parmesan. One of the best carbonara I’ve ever had. The cured potk they use to make this dish is outstanding! I couldn’t stop eating it!

nothing like a mid afternoon saturday late lunch. we both had lasagna, beef and chicken spinach. got the dinner portion for the salad and extra garlic bread. best lasagna i ever had. came out
super hot (temp) and stayed that way for awhile.
price was amazing – two dinner lasagnas and two sodas – $46+tip.

service got 3 stars – not gonna lie: she forgot an appetizer we ordered, she didn’t come around and check on us/refresh our beverages and the other servers were very busy with their phones. parking was tricky being street only but we had found a spot after a go-around. chairs had some padding which is rare these days.

We heard a lot of good things about Pinocchio’s Pizza so we decided to give it a try. When you walk in, there’s a good amount of space inside. Perfect for a date night or a group of friends. We ordered the garlic cheese fries to start. Super cheesy and the garlic flavor was very prominent in each bite. Next we ordered our meals starting with the eggplant parmigiana. The lunch portion came with a salad and garlic bread. The dish also had fettuccine alongside it too which was delish. The second meal was the carbonara. I really enjoyed this dish especially with the fried egg on top. I opted for the dinner portion that included side salad and garlic bread. Finally we wanted to try the small meat lovers pizza. Their small rivals a lot of other places “large” portion. Toppings were piled up high, tasty, and very filling. Overall great experience and definitely would come back soon!

Classic and comfortable neighborhood spot with great food. We ordered the small Pinocchio’s Special pizza, spaghetti carbonara, and beef lasagna dinners which came with side salads and garlic bread. All tasted delicious, even as leftovers the day after.

Prices are very reasonable and portions are generous. Perfect for a relaxed weeknight dinner for enjoying comfort food in a friendly setting.

Small parking lot in the back, easy to find street parking.

I was finally able to try out Pinocchio’s Pizza and this spot definitely lives up to the reviews! I tried their truffle burrata which was delicious. My daughter got a kids pizza and absolutely loved it. If you want to try a dish other than pizza, I recommend the shrimp and lobster ravioli or the meat lasagna. Don’t forget to get a slice of tiramisu. Will be back again for delicious Italian food.

We hosted my daughter’s 21st birthday celebration at Pinocchio Pizza this past Saturday, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Armen made the booking process fast and super easy—he was very quick to respond to emails and made everything stress-free.

Our server, Jenifer, was wonderful—friendly, attentive, and made sure our semi-private party was taken care. The food was delicious, especially the ravioli and chicken fettuccine Alfredo, which everyone loved.

The service, food, and overall atmosphere were perfect for celebrating such a special milestone. Thank you to the entire team at Pinocchio Pizza for helping make my daughter’s 21st birthday so memorable. We highly recommend this restaurant for celebrations and events!

Came here for a reserved party. Food was good esp the seafood alfredo. Maybe a bit under staffed. Back parking & in the crossing has extra parking spaces.
