Unpretentious spot turning out New York-style pizzas, hoagies & beer, plus other Italian staples.

I tried this place out for the first time yesterday. It was amazing!! The service was good, plenty of space, a little chilly but the owner adjusted the air, and a wide variety of food. Their salad was a little boring just lettuce, cheese,a cucumber, and slither of a tomato; but the rest of the food was delicious! I chose the calzone. It was loaded with mozzarella and pepperoni (hold the ricotta). My sister chose a stromboli that looked good and she got a slice of pizza and it was so good. We’ll definitely be back!

THE best NY style pizza in the St Louis/St Charles Counties area! Great crust, the best sauce and great mozzarella cheese! If they served fries and Coke products they they’d have it all!

I’ve alwyas had a high opinion of Racalelli’s through the years. Top-tiier NY style pizza in the St. Louis area.
The St. Charles location in particular, was a mixed bag. I would buy a pizza maybe once every 6 months, and it was a mixed bag. I”ve had a couple that were a a little undercooked (definitely not dangerous, but not fantastic), or overcooked.
But I recently ordered, and my pizza was PERFECT. Like, the best pizza I’ve had locally in years. And I’ve ordered 3 more pizzas since then that they did not disappoint.
If you like NY-style pizza, give Racanelli’s a try. SO GOOD!

On 11/23/2025 I ordered a pizza and paid $22.67. As you can see in the photo, the majority of the pizza was missing cheese. The pieces missing were torn off and tossed in the sink before I realized I wanted to take a picture. Today, 11/24/2025, I called to complain and asked for a manager, I was speaking with the owner I later found out. I began to explain what the pizza we received was like and he demanded a photo stating “anyone can call and complain just to get a free pizza”. I sent the picture of the pizza I received and told the man how unhappy I was with the pizza he sent me and he began to yell at me that “he” didn’t send me anything because he was off work last night. I told him that it didn’t matter, and he began to yell at me, literally scream on the phone to me that if I wanted his help with this situation that I had better not say anything negative about his pizzas. When I asked him to calm down, he started speaking in a foreign language and when he returned to speaking English, he told me since he was the owner that was not going to do anything for me and then slammed the phone down on me. I thought that this had to be some kind of joke because I have no idea why anyone would be so hostile, especially an owner. So, I called back, and he answered the phone by yelling, very loudly, “I am blocking you”. I was going to ask for the pizza I received to be replaced but now I have no other alternative but to ask for a refund. I was unable to ask for either of those options because I didn’t have the chance to speak, I was screamed at the entire phone call.

Really nice little spot.
Pizza crust was nice and crispy, and the flavor was nicely balanced. Slightly greased, but that can be soaked up with a napkin.
Staff was friendly and upbeat.
HUGE Single Slices.

While I love the pizza here, the service is lacking. Got home with the wrong order. Called the restaurant was told I needed to bring the wrong pizza back up to the store and that they would re-make the tomato basil pizza I ordered. I said ok it will take me 15 min to drive back up there.
Upon arriving they took the pizza back that I returned saying it might be someone else’s order… umm gross. I highly doubt that but it’s terrible service to have us return a pizza that was incorrect too.
(And I also had pics of my receipt and the pizzas, so I could prove I got the wrong order).
The new pizza wasn’t even ready, they started it when I arrived back! So had to wait another 20 min then drive back home 15 min. They did apologize but no compensation, no trying to make it right, maybe a free appetizer or gift voucher for next time?? Something would have been nice. By the time I got back home my other two pizzas are obviously cold and the rest of my family had already eaten. I just think it was really handled poorly.
If you go here double check your order WHILE THERE!!!
New pizza slid around in the box and looked bad when I got home, just explaining the pic.
I ordered: cheese pizza, pepperoni pizza. Tomato Basil pizza and cheese bread.
Arrived home with: 2 cheese pizzas, pepperoni pizza and cheese bread. Spent $90

Anytime I can get NY or East Coast style pizza, I’m gonna get it and Racanelli’s is like an oasis in a desert.
Best NY Style pizza in the area, on God.
The crust is just the perfect combination of crunch without it being cracker like.
The sauce isn’t overwhelming but flavorful and balances beautifully with the melty cheese.
AND YOU CAN BUY BY THE SLICE!
I’m so glad I was able to stop by today. Thank you!

I’m always searching for the best New York style pizza in St. Louis, and I think I’ve found my new favorite. The slices are huge, undercarriage and crust is super crisp. You can really taste the freshness of the sauce and mozzarella cheese. Can’t wait for football season and some Racanelli’s pizza. I highly recommend this location. Very friendly staff.
