If you are an Elvis fan then this is a place to come to. Elvis used to visit this local eatery which haa been here since the 1920s. We were fortunate to run into the owner Jerry who gave us the run-down of some cool stories. Vickie our server was wonderful and was the one who got us moved into the Elvis Room of this restaurant. Manicoti was great and if you want to eat what Elvis ate, order the BBQ pizza…I wilp warn you, it’s a lot of food!

My fiance love’s the round the world but I’m not that impressed. First time I got a pizza. Just okay. This time I got spaghetti and equally not as impressed. Too tomatoey.. the service is always good though

Historic Memphis institution frequented by Elvis and claiming to have invented the bbq pizza. Today Coletta’s original location is a roadside remnant showing its age in a forgotten neighborhood. While I’m not sure I’d want to see inside the kitchen, the bbq pizza is still as tasty as always. Busy takeout business (avoid the long wait for pizza), but dining in offers cheap beer, down-home service, and a leap back in time.

Although my last visit was the prior millennium, the service and meal did not disappoint. We had a 3rd generation server take our order, a 2nd generation server (her mom) deliver the order, and a first generation employee from the 70s (the mom, grandmom) not only cash us out, but come running to the car a few minutes later with my scarf which had dropped to the floor. Pizza takes about 30 mins to bake, so factor in the timing and order a salad or a side of Italian spinach as a bridge. I’ll be back more often!

I was not impressed for Italian food. I’ve had much better Italian food. I was really disappointed. However, I hear they serve a good steak on Thursdays. Iust try the steak . Also, I m told that they have a great crowd on Thursday evenings.

I purchased a small meat pizza and an order of lasagna, which was supposed to come with garlic bread and sautéed spinach. I waited on order. During the wait, an employee came in after emptying trash smelling like straight up weed. It was loud and nauseating. I got home, pizza crust baked hard and burnt. The lasagna was watery, no garlic bread nor spinach. I received 2 rolls, which were cold and wrapped in parchment paper. I was very disappointed and will never return. I want my money back $30+

Always good Italian food. So glad my travels brought me here today. This place has been here forever. Has roots back to the early 1930s. Got the lunchtime specials. Lasagna and spaghetti. And too full for desert. They have a reputation for bbq pizza, give it a try. Enjoy.

I LOVE this place!! It’s been around 100 years!!! The location on S Parkway is my favorite… I’ve been eating there for 30 yrs. Now everytime I come back to visit I have to come.. great pizza and I love the spaghetti Ravioli combo. Don’t get me started on the shredded parm..I’ll use the whole container lol… the staff is friendly as well as the owner.. Elvis and Priscilla weren’t wrong in frequenting here…

I was excited to see they had chicken sausage pizza. I added spinach & onions. I was under the impression that it would be fresh spinach that would go on pizza. I was gravely mistaken. They put cooked, soggy spinach on the pizza. The chicken sausage is awesome, but this salty, cooked spinach on the pizza is detracting from it. This is after I’ve taken some of the spinach off of it (there was more). Atmosphere is dated.

My boyfriend is a Memphis native and he introduced me to Coletta’s a few years ago. Now I make it a point to have him take me every time we visit Memphis. This is the best pizza I have ever had.
