The thick crust and the spicy pizza sauce make the pizza delicious!
Great wine list . Order two completely different pizzas and enjoy. Leftovers are a next day treat. Garlic chicken Alfredo is awesome 5 star pizza in a tee shirt .
Unbelievably delicious. It is dangerous to live within 50 miles of this place. YUM!!!
Love this little South Minneapolis Italian place ! Great pizza and gelato !
Not only is there gelato & good food, there's art inside & out!
Bread and pizza were undercooked, bread was actually raw in the middle. Clam pizza had a good taste though :)
Delicious pasta and reasonable prices are the order of the day here! :-)
Wait times can get ridiculous and be prepared to watch people that arrived after you get in before you (i.e., group of 3 over a group of 2), based on table capacity.
Order pizza by the slice, a beer , and leave room for Gelato
For an appetizer , nothing beats their breadstick ...or the "rope" as I call it. You'll know what I mean when you order it!
The Fat’s Special Hoagie .
Pizza by the slice, they have house made gelato
Pasta and meatballs was good but id go for the sandwich next time.
The fats hogie is something special, the O Mio Dio gives it a run... You'd be happy either way
Interesting gelato flavors that they let you sample. Examples: sweaty betty, spicy chocolate and blood orange .
Pizza , Shrimp Alfredo with Penne , Gelato
The gelato is a must for the summer
Try thier meatball sub . It is huge and deliceous. I get mine with extra peppers .
Best pizza dough ever!
Get the Alfrenzo pizza , you'll love it! :) Big BIG portions
Everything
Get a slice - they're big, tasty, cheap , and free toppings !
Bread that came with pasta was burnt to a crisp. Pasta was burned too. Pizza wasn't anything special either, but man was that cheese bread good.
Clam pizza , tea sorbet , it's a good day.
Try our other location on 84 th and Pillsbury inside the VFW
Get the Artichoke Dip . You won't be sorry.

Can never go wrong with Linguine Frutti di Mare. Don't forget to try the calamaris! Ask for a bowl of marinara sauce at no extra charge if you want. - Calvin Chang
Great pizza that you can get by the slice make sure to get a breadstick! - Kristin K
It is beautiful all year round! There is the paying for parking, which I don’t always remember being there, other than that it’s still beautiful with a great park for kids! - Leilani Andrews
Try the traditional American Juicy Lucy with blue cheese crumbles on top! Fantastic ... Salty and savory. - Brad Countryman
