Loved the pizza, went for lunch with coworkers and was pleasantly surprised. It's a small place that's serves good pizza and their prices are more than reasonable. Try their Sicilian pizza, the dough is so good!
Thin crust , just enough sauce and cheese. Crispy and juice ... perfect. Small place , simple , but really friend staff . For sure I will be back here . Until now this was the best pizza I have tried in South Miami since coming from New York City.
I had never been to this pizza spot even though I frequently went to a sub shop next to it.... And let me tell you this pizza and the rest of the menu also is amazing. They are a family owned establishment and stay true to quality and service. The sauce and the crunchy crust really make it NY style! Love that the owner stayed true to their roots. A must try. I only wish I had taken a picture of my food! I’ll have to visit again and update!
This place was recommend by a lifelong friend who is a "foodie' and "pizza fean" FYI I am originally from NY, so have a certain appreciation for good Italian food (i.e., pizza, pasta, deserts, etc.) I remember going to this location when it was Village Pizza and there was not much in the area except vacant lots some 20 years ago, so I was a little surprised that the name had changed but happy that they make a good NY style pizza. The place is a small Mom & Pop pizza joint which I LOVE! Staff was friendly and attentive. The owner spoke with us for a few minutes and we had a great conversation about how the location and neighborhood has changed in the last 20 years. We had a large half cheese and half sausage extra crispy pizza, six garlic rolls and tiramisu for desert. A couple of sodas and a cold beer. The Garlic rolls were perfect, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with just the right amount of garlic and olive oil. The Pizza is very good and definitely NY style... thin and crispy with real sliced Italian sausage! Tiramisu was good and one was enough to share. We don't live far from this place, so it is now on our on list of "Pizza Friday" places. If your looking for a no-frills NY style pizza joint this is the place.
So incredibly delicious!!! Super authentic family fun feel and the staff was super kind. The meat lasagna and Greek salad was super fresh, had good portions, and a great price. Definitely recommend!!!
Just moved to area and trying to take advantage of lunch special weekly! Great crust on pizza and flavorful sauce. Gotta try them out if around Dadeland!
Today we decided to try Gaetano's. We were so hungry that I forgot to take a picture of the cesar salad and the Pasta chicken parmesan. But I did remember to take a picture of the Veggie pizza. I really recommend this place. I came here fist in 2005 but under a different management. One can see that they use all fresh ingredients, nothing is from can! The salad was exquisite, the pasta was al dente, the way we like it. The Veggie pizza was full of fresh tomatoes, basil leaves, mushrooms, olives, green pepers, etc... And on top of everything: the cannoli with ricotta cheese. Mama Mia. We had the pleasure to meet the owner who is originally from Palermo, Italy Mr Gaetano who really enjoys his business.
This is the NY pizza slice that I've been looking for, for the past 10 yrs living here in Miami. The pizza chef is a native Brooklynite too. This place looks, feels and tastes like a real deal NYC pizzeria. Simple decor, delicious pizza and friendly service. So lucky that I stumbled in here today . Thank you and keep up the great work
