Chefs ..... Delicious food and service was great. I did enter kind of looking like a crazy lady but was helped right away. Sat and had the feta with spinach pizza, and a side of 12 oysters. They gave a side of bread with the oysters, you can dip in the sauce you served with your oysters.

La Villa Pizzeria never disappoints! The pizza is always hot, crisp, and full of flavor — real New York-style perfection. The portions are generous, and everything from the garlic knots to the pasta dishes tastes homemade. The staff is friendly, service is fast, and the place has that comfortable, neighborhood feel that keeps you coming back. Easily one of the best pizza spots around!

The food is always fresh and the staff is quite knowledgeable. I wasn't sure what to purchase, so the owner didn't hesitate to help me choose. Took one bite of their food, we got a winner! My advice is to make sure your stomach remains empty upon arrival, for which you will want to try everything. Especially, their deserts. I guarantee you will return with good friends for a get-together.

Dined in last week and just wanted to say the food was amazing and my fav from there would be the zucchini pizza. The atmosphere is very friendly and the staff is amazing. Wanted to give a shout out to my server Justin. He was absolutely professional and sweet. Our orders came out just the way we wanted. Would totally recommend the place.

Most amazing parmigiana and very friendly staff! This was more than lunch stop for me. I travelled from Utah to stop by this location as this was the exact location of my grandfather’s pizzeria in the 60’s (different restaurant). I wanted to sit, have lunch, and soak in the views & vibes as corny as that sounds. Turns out, the food & atmosphere here was great. I met Frank the owner who was super friendly, and waitress Sydney who was on-top of her game in the middle of the lunch-rush. The chicken parmigiana and Arancini (rice balls) were delicious! Most certainly enjoyed my lunch experience and will be back when in NY in the future!
