Aquilone’s Cucina

We had a personal pan pizza for appetizer which was very good. I had their veal cacciatore and it might of been the best I ever had.

This is strictly a two slice and a Coke review.
Maybe it is just the luck of the draw that I walked into Aquilone’s Cucina in the H Mart strip center only a few days after having one of the best Tomato Pies in my life over in Jersey. Or, maybe it was because that unique experience fostered my desire to duplicate it in a new place. Regardless, I was hungry and decided to eat something before going shopping in H Mart on an empty stomach.
Aquilone’s is a fairly large joint with room enough for close to 100 people. The colors are predominantly yellow and brown, and on a rainy day seemed to mirror the overcast darkness all around. I ordered a slice of regular pizza and one with Italian Sweet Sausage and asked them to be reheated long enough to be well done.
When they arrived on a large plate (so much nicer than being handed pizza on paper plates), they looked good and heat was rising off of them. I wasn’t provided with utensils, and when I attempted to pick up the first slice, it immediately drooped over from the weight of the cheese and the fact that the center of the crust was not really very hot. Too, oil dripped off suggesting that the crust was in fact somewhat soggy.
The taste was fairly good, but it was obvious these pies had been on display for a while, and had lost their life force. The same was true for the Sausage slice. Quality meat, yet the cheese and sauce needed more refreshing than a turn in the oven could provide.
Perhaps, I should know better than to go for a late two slice lunch when the available pies have been around too long. But, I did not want to ask for a new pie to be made, and there are shops that routinely put together new pizzas for the by the slice crowd every few hours so their wares don’t lose their verve.
Nice folks. Good service. But, these slices were past their prime.

I am a pizzaholic of the first order, and in my very humble opinion, this place has the best pizza in the area! Period, the end!

The most delicious minestrone/​pasta fagioli ever.
Also they have the tastiest marinara or is tomoto… sauce in town!

Just had take out yet does appear to be a good pizzeria for dining in, nothing fancy but comfortable. Love their cheesesteaks and pizza… Always good food.

Excellent food, prompt service. Enjoy it.
That’s all that needs to be said.

Love this place. Fantastic pizza made exactly how we ask for it. Cheesesteaks, fries and salads are great, too. The staff is always friendly and ready with a smile.

I hate to give this place a great review as I would like to keep it a secret for faster delivery times however they really need to hear the praise.
We’ve had many different pizzas, sandwithces and entres and all were well above par.
Don’t miss this place.
I wish they were on GrubHub (my favorite way to order delivery) so that ordering and payment were simplier.

Best wings in town and amazing Italian pizza ! Love the owners and the friendly staff. Prompt service and a very clean restaurant.
The white pizza is great but the regular pizza sauce is killer as well.

My office orders food from Aquilone’s Cucina for every event and I get why. Their food is delicious! I had the Farfalle Boscaiola once at our Christmas party and I’m hooked. It is so creamy and delicious! You get a pretty large portion for $ 10.95! For smaller events we get the pizza and salad. It’s all very good. You get those larger slices of pizza and 1 slice is usually enough to fill you. I will go back again and again!

One of the best pizza places around. I love their pizza, it is real pizza not like that garbage pizza with such a weird doughy hard crust you find at many local pizza places. The cheese they use is better quality and their toppings are great. I love the sausage pizza — best sausage around.
I have also ordered a hoagie from there and it was so good the bread they use is one of the best and all the hoagie fixings were fresh. I was shocked because I’m always skeptical about ordering hoagies from pizza places and not delis but id choose them over a deli any day.
I have also ordered their italian entrees like penne a la vodka which was delicious.
The place is VERY clean, they are community oriented as they support the local athletic club in the area by being a sponsor.
Only con is I think they are a little pricey and they don’t offer any specials BUT you are paying for quality and once I ordered $ 35 worth of food and the owner told me to grab a free 2 liter which I appreciated.

We’ve ordered from here a few times and they have yet to disappoint. The garlic knots and onion rings are out of this world. My husbands favorite is the thick crust pizza which he won’t stop talking about. Pretty quick too.

Great pizza, the marinara is the best, staff are friendly. I have eaten here a few times and always very good.

Aquilone’s as we call it, is a great place to get delicious pizza and Italian food. It’s clean, reasonably priced, and the people that run it are upbeat, friendly, and care about their patron’s eating experience. My wife and I are originally from Brooklyn, and having lived there for decades we were able to taste the best pizza NY has to offer. Aquilone’s «Brooklyn Pizza» is AWESOME. It’s as good as the best pizza (Patsy Grimaldi’s is the best brick oven) and better than the rest (better than L & B Spumoni Gardens and Davinci’s). For years, our families have catered parties through them (the sausage, peppers & onions tray is delicious) and every time the guests will comment on how delightful the food is… all of it! My wife loves their Toscana salad and I love their Chicken Marsala entrée. The hot sandwiches and Signature Panini’s are tasty, our favorites are the Chicken Parm sandwich and the Carlo Special Panini. A big thank you to the folks at Aquilone’s, we order from them about once a week and have been for years and they have NEVER once disappointed us!

Best pizza in the area by far, other dishes are always excelent too!

My first experience eating here was mediocre. I ordered 2 slices to eat in: 1 plain and 1 sausage.
First off, the pizza itself wasn’t bad but nothing special either. I wasn’t crazy about how tough the thin crust was; it wasn’t cardboard but it was hard and dense. A plus is atleast they don’t go skimp on the sausage topping!
Second, was the price! Call me cheap, but $ 4.56 for 1 plain + 1 sausage seems pretty expensive! That would mean that 1 plain slice is already $ 2! My favorite pizza places (Pizza Star near 5 Points + A&S Pizza on Edgely/​Bristol Pike) charge $ 1.60-$ 1.80 for a plain and any additional topping is about $.50 extra, AND they serve damn good slices.
Idk, maybe if I had ordered an entire, freshly made pie, the quality would have definitely made my rating higher. However, no matter a fresh pie or reheated slices that were sitting on the counter, the taste/​texture should remain the same throughout! If other pizza places can serve excellent slices then so can this place!
TL;DR Ver: For people eating here, avoid slices and just order an entire pizza to get the utmost quality and experience. But if you already have a favorite pizza place, just keep going there.

Formerly Brothers Pizza of Levittown. Pick up /​delivery /​or dine in. BYOB. Great white pizza with fresh spinach chopped tomato and ricotta! Eqqplant Parmesian and Lasagna are also freshly made and full of flavor.
