Alfonso’s Pizzeria & Restaurants

We ordered from here 2x while in town. The first time we sat and ate pizza in the restaurant. Everything came out as ordered. We ordered take out the next night. The pizza and wings were delivered faster than expected and we’re still hot. Overall the pizza was good. The mild wings were perfect.

Wonderful mom and pop shop that’s been around forever. Be patient with delivery as it’s the owner delivering his own pizza. Pick up is better. My favorite is the chicken parm sandwich and the veal parm sandwich.

Delicious. A hidden gem. Do not be fooled by few ratings — trust me, the locals know where it’s at! 30+ years and counting and easily the best penne a la vodka I’ve ever had.

I think iPhones as food is the very best in Scotchtown. We have not ordered there from a long time we were there last night and let me tell you I think the food is out of this world even the pizza very very reasonably priced. I would recommend ordering from there and make sure you try the soup. Recommend you to try the pasta fizzle soup. Please could use a little updating but hey this time and economy can’t understand but let me cut staff every family and personal and I would totally recommend this place they do deliver to which is which is very very rare

Alfonso’s is one of the oldest pizza joints in the Scotchtown area. It really is not a sit down place and more for carry out. Need a pizza for Friday night on the way home, this is a good place to stop, but call ahead because it can take up to 20 minutes to prepare.
The pizza is good (not great) and the large is a little larger than others in the area. The pizza is pretty consistent but sometimes the crust can be a little thick. I like the sauce but can see where some people may find the taste a little off. Most pizza flavors are good, but they use canned mushrooms that taste good and are plentiful but they are canned and not cooked.
So if you need a decent pizza in Scotchtown try Alfanso’s. If you do not like it there are plenty of other pizza places in the area.

I like this place, I order almost every weekend. Prices are fair, food is good and they deliver.

This is a uniquely distinct family business. While the pizza is an authentic NY style pizza, all of the food they serve is freshly prepared and of high quality. I have used their catering menu quite often and have never gotten negative feedback.
Their prices are fair and affordable and I won’t get my pizza from anywhere else. I am also a huge fan of their sausage and peppers and buffalo wings.
Their customer service is over the top and leaves nothing to be desired.

Yes, Josie K is right about the décor. It’s a sticky elbowed, greasy-​grouted, old garlic aroma-​ed traditional pizzeria. From the faded sign to the sharpie — written menu, it’s no different from the pizza joint you went to right after school let out every Friday.
The one I went to way back in the days of yore had an almost red-​orange glow to it. Or maybe that was just the 80s? Either way, this place had the best tomato sauce in the county.
That was years ago. (as in like two.)
Sad to say, now their sauce is mediocre and barely coats a pizza — with notes of tinniness from undercooked crappy canned tomatoes– the sauce barely registered. Had i ordered white pizza with dough colored by one of their menu markers?
Oh — and their prices went up. Like ridiculously so. They were always one of the more expensive parlors, but I hadn’t been here in awhile so I figured I’d give it a try.
To warn you –a slice of plain pizza is three dollars. Yes.
THREE. WHOLE. DOLLARS. One slice.
For that price, i can get a slice AND a soda in Manhattan. Unless you’ve gotten 24k gold shavings on the pizza I am NOT paying that much for a slice of pizza. A pizza is a pizza is a pizza. Besides, I hate getting gold shavings stuck in between my teeth. It’s something akin to chewing on foil gum wrappers.
Not that going to Alfonso’s is like chewing on aluminum foil, I digress mightily, but, oh how far it has fallen from it’s special place in my heart.

No WAY do not go here!
We use to get our pizza here, It was never that good but the guy who owns the pizza place closer to us is a total pervert. So we started to drive here to get pizza. The last time we ordered a pie here we were told it would take about 20 – 25 minutes. SO we headed over to pick it up and we were maybe like a few minutes longer then 20 minutes by time we got there. no more then 25 minutes. So we give them our name and the guy goes «YEAH your late we just gave it away you gotta wait another 20 minutes we just put another one in for you» UM HELLO WHAT?! who does that?! so we told him no the pizza’s not worth 45 minutes to wait for and he got all mad because he put a new one in! He shouldn’t have given ours away. Complete nonsense. I will never go back. Its filthy inside the pizza is gross and the sauce is watery.
Theres a good 20 other places in the area to get pizza, I’d go to dominos before i order from this idiot again.
