Catanzaro’s Pizzeria

A couple friends from work go out every Friday in search of a new place to eat. We stopped by here and keep coming back because it’s sooooo good.
Prices are very reasonable. And the taste is AMAZING.

Amazing delicious food we had the pizza with roasted red peppers roasted garlic black olives and sausages oh so scrumptious!!! Thanksgiving calzone to die for. Run do not walk to Catanzaro’s!!! What are you waiting for???

I paid over $ 40 for what I can only describe as garlic bread. I got a margherita pizza with «extra» basil. There was one sliver of tomato and one ripped up piece of old dried out basil per piece of pizza. I usually would not write a bad review before I’ve tried a place more than once, but the last two times we called for pizza they were out of mozzarella and basil… How does a pizza place run out of mozzarella cheese?! Do yourselves a favor and go somewhere else!

Had an Italian grinder at the NP location. It was really bad. I asked for lettuce, tomatoes, peppers and onions on the grinder. When I started to eat it the meat was gray and cut thick. The outer peel of the onion was in the grinder along with weird greens saturated with balsamic vinegar. The grinder was $ 8 +. Very disappointing.

sorry i wanted to like it but its the worse pizza i have ever had along with Uncle Tonys… the crust was about 3 inches thick and it was like chewing on a thick chewey pretzel. skimped on the toppings and all crust!

Great grilled pizza, amazing crust. Regular pizza too doughy and thick for my taste, not enough sauce, etc.. Sandwiches are just okay, definitely not the best.

I hate to do this since I’ve heard good things but I was thoroughly disappointed by Catanzaro’s. My go to pizza place in the area was way behind on Sunday night due to the playoff game and Catanzaro’s was a shorter wait and less expensive. I wish I had had the patience to wait…
The pizza wasn’t BAD but it wasn’t good. I love Sicilian style pizza, Uncle Tony’s and Caserta’s are my go tos, but this pizza was lacking in toppings and half of the crust was burnt. Too much dough, too little sauce and cheese and I found myself having to sort through slices in order to find one that was close to being acceptable. I try not to eat pizza on a regular basis (although I could eat it for every meal) so when I do indulge I want for it to be worth it. This was no where close to being so. I will say that I enjoyed the toppings under the cheese. I think it would have been a huge success had their ratios been correct.
Next time I’m sticking with my regular spots — tried and true.

Overrated and over priced. The pizza is very large, but I didn’t like how everything was mixed together in terms of toppings. I like things to be more uniform looking.
The staff seemed friendly enough, although oddly there was someone who seemed to be a bike policeman working there folding boxes in the background when I went there to pickup the pizza.
I’ve tried the strips, full pizza and calzones. All were a disappointment. Lasalle Bakery or Dave’s Market both have great pizza strips if you are looking for that. For pizza I’d recommend Uncle Tony’s instead.
Being very fussy about tomato sauce I have to say I did not like the sauce. It had a strange spicy and sweet taste with an after taste that I did not particularly like. Uncle Tony’s pizza sauce far surpasses the sauce at Catanzaro’s. I might order from them, but only as a last resort.

BEWARE OF METAL IN CRUST AND NASTY OWNER! This is now the second time I have gotten pizza from here where I have seen metal shards in my crust. The first time I saw it from the N. Prov location, I swore I would NEVER get from them again. The second time, someone brought it to my house from the Cranston location, I would have never told them to get it from there.
For years I had been ordering from here for parties and weekend dinners and the pizza is really great. One night I was throwing the leftovers from my kids plates in the garbage and saw some metal in the crust. When I checked all of the leftover pizza, it was everywhere. I think they might take the pizza out of the pans with a metal spatula or knife.
When I called to let the owner know, he challenged me and didn’t believe me at all. Asking if I had wrapped it in tin foil or heated it up when it got home. I told him I could bring it in and show him and he said «I absolutely want to see this» in a very rude tone.
When I went into the N. Prov location, I quietly asked to speak with the owner so the other people in the restaurant would not hear me. When he came out he just said «Yeah, let me see» so I told him it would be better to go into the back and do this b/​c of the other customers and he said no, that he wanted to see it right there… on the front counter.
I whipped it open and he never said a thing, just stared at the leftover pizza, flipped it over, asked me again if I put it in tin foil and then telling the waitress to refund my money and then he LITERALLY walked away. I was in there with my 3 kids, all three of them had eaten the pizza. Not once did he apologize or do anything from stopping me from writing this.
My decision to never order from them again was not because of the quality of the product but because of the nasty man who runs the operation. I don’t even want to know how he treats his employees if this is what he does to loyal customers.

Love their pizza here and Cranston. The only reason for the 4 stars here is sometimes they won’t deliver to my buddies house who lives less than 2 miles away but it on the boarder of prov and north prov.
Other than that, pizza is supremium and I choose Catanzaro’s over casertas 9 out of 10 times, just because I need to switch it up and appreciate their pizza that much more.
The pizza is more expensive but the size is also larger, if you want a cheap pie, go order dominos with garlic crust for 7.99 but if you want the bees knees, call these guys up.
Awesome food, get it, now and save me a slice if you can! Thank me
Later

Best Sicilian pizza around! The steak &cheese (albeit in the form of a calzone) is also right up there with anything youll find off south street in Philly

Are you kidding me??? This is the best pizza I have ever had! It is addictive, even when you have had enough you want more and more. We had pizza and a spinach calzone… WTF it was awesome!

I’ve only had the grilled buffalo chicken pizza here, but it is amazing! You gotta try it :)

First time. Showed up at 8:40. Was told they were closed. Well they close at 9 and did not want to make me a pizza. AVOID!!! Rude as hell!

Pizza is good. Nothing to write home about in my opinion. The portions are huge, we ordered a medium and it was giant. The end pieces are the best part because the cheese gets really crispy. I think I’d like it better if the toppings were on top of the cheese, I like my pepperoni crispy.

I had a pizza here tonight and it was great. I ordered cheese and sausage on the pizza and it was nice and crunchy. I plan on getting pizza here again.

2 pizzas (a medium 4 topping) and a grilled=$ 40! Also a $ 2 charge for plates & utensils. 50 minute wait, and the only other customers were 2 guys who waited for a redo on their messed up order.

Unreal rectangular pizza that will have you asking yourself why you ever wasted time on those other pizza joints. The rectangular pie is a nice change from the more prominent circle and truly explodes with flavor.

Is a pizza restaurant really that good if they skimp so much on sauce, I’m pretty much eating bread and cheese. Last time we order from there for a party.

Terrible taste-​less crust and minimal toppings. Not worth the money. Go elsewhere.
