Pizza Italia 842 East 180th Street, The Bronx, NY 10460

"They nasty they handle food with out gloves dirty hands and nails smfh 0 stars and they got feens working there and talking on top of people food just disgusting."

"I know the old owners retired but I miss them dearly! They were friendly and always did experimental toppings on the pizza, to offer new flavors. The pasta dinners used to be banging. The pizza tasted better back then too. The other day I ordered a salad and when I got upstairs, it was half rotten, didn’t have everything I paid for on it, and the garlic sticks weren’t even cooked! I was too tired to go back and had to trash it…Check your food before you leave. The new owner did bring in credit card payments and modernized the decor.The workers are kind. However, the menu selection and quality has declined."

"Place WAS great. New ownership has ruined this establishment. Food is horrible, they never get the orders right. The garlic sticks were pale, no flavor. Everything was such a disappointment. Everything in the baked ziti was over cooked , from the pasta to the chicken. The stuffed shells were drowning in tomato sauce. The new owner has really brought this business down."

"The only thing Italian about pizza Italia is the name (although I did taste a smidgen of oregano). However, for $2.25, it's not a bad slice. Decent amount of cheese and sauce, and decent size. Soft crust, with no particular taste. I'll give this a rating of 84."

"Pizza Italia is a hidden gem for amazing pizza at a great price in the Bronx close to the Bronx Zoo. We found this place after a long day at the zoo. They have $1.50 slices and $11 large pies so you can not go wrong either way. Only a couple tables inside but there is a park 100 feet away so you can sit there as well. The owner and staff are super friendly. The place is constantly busy but most everyone grabs their slice and then they leave. We ordered a large pie and while we were waiting for only 8 minutes a minimum of 5 different people came in and commented to the owner that this is their favorite pizza! If you are looking for a dollar pizza that is the locals favorite pizza place in the Bronx NYC then you found the spot."
