Paesano’s Pizzeria

I’ve ordered lunch from here a few times and they make what is without a doubt the best chicken parmigiana I’ve ever had. They’re becoming my go-​to for lunch.

We get their pizzas, salads and pasta at my college during our club meetings. The food is so yummy. I can’t resist to just eat more and more.

Love the eggplant parm! Paesano pie is amazing, especially with garlic knots! I used to always get the eggplant parm maybe once a week, I would still get it once a week if I could afford it lol, but, I’ve tried eggplant parm at many different pizzerias and this one always takes the cake.

Sausage Roll is $ 5, and a nice ratio of sausage, marinara, and cheese wrapped in a thin pizza dough and baked in the pizza oven. It was ready in 5 minutes. Measures like 3×12, and is filling! I could probably finish one on a weekend day and be good for 6 hours. But on a work lunch break I ate ²⁄₃ of it and it’s sufficient. They only have two parking spots though in that plaza and on a weekday there weren’t spots. Maybe delivery is the way to go. I’ll come back to try the pizza too.

Just had my first pizza pizza from here and It was delicious! Thin crust, tasty sauce right amount of cheese, couldn’t ask for a better pizza. I will definitely be back.

Terrific pizza here. Often I’ll drive past 2 or 3 other places to get here. Definitely worth it. Nice service and good people here, too. Cheap lunch specials, but great quality. I usually get just the pizza, but my coworkers get the other dishes and wraps and they always love it.

Had to try this pizza based on all the reviews I read on Unilocal.
I was in the area today with my brother so we ordered a pie to take out. The reviews were spot on. The pizza is thin and crispy with a tasty sauce. This has to be one of the top thin crust pies I have had on Staten Island. So far…
We ordered a large pie, one half sausage and the other half plain. Wait for it… well done of course. When trying a pizzeria for the first time this is my standard order. The prices are very reasonable, the pie came to $ 14.
It may be a little hard to notice since it is in a little strip mall just off Victory Blvd on Bradley Avenue. Parking can be a bit of a pain as mentioned in another review, but we were lucky and found parking in the 7 – 11 lot right around the corner.
It is a tiny place with maybe 4 tables, they are a predominately take out establishment. Looking forward to trying some pasta or sandwiches next time I am in the area. When speaking to the person who waited on us it was mentioned they also cater.
With a name like Paesano’s how can you go wrong?

Always liked their foods, but the pizza was on the thinner side. They have delicious penne vodka.

The best pizza on Staten Island. I don’t know why it doesn’t get on the top ten of pizzerias on Staten Island. Maybe because it’s a small place with a difficult parking lot. My advice, give it a try. Then compare it to those top pizzerias. You will find out that this place is just as good if not better.

Moved to Westerleigh from Brooklyn in 2012. this pizza place saved my life. I loved it. I love good pizza. I do not eat from the other spot on Jewett. I do not like greasy or cheap cheese pizza. This is the best. give it a try. I now moved to the up and coming St. George Condominiums and I still go back here once a week to order a pie and a chicken roll for my family. The only thing by me is Pronto’s and its horrible.

REALLY good pizza I enjoyed and the worker was really nice and gave us a free soda. The pizza is really thin and crunchy and its pretty big for a slice. I would want more sauce though on the slice. Its $ 2.00 a slice and they also serve entrees and like chicken and spinach rolls and other little foods. It was really good and I would come back for more. The parking is rough though!

There square pie is better than L&B in Brooklyn, this place is one of staten islands hidden treasures and the whole staff is great.

Not bad for your average slice! A little dirty but other than that i’m pleased. Try it out!

The sicilian pie sauce over cheese on soft bready crust is awesome. Expect a long wait for it. That’s the only thing I’d order here. Not an eat in place, but if you want a good square pie, that you can eat more than two slices of, this is the place.

First time ordering, waited over 1 hr. and 15 minutes. I am 5 minutes away, maybe less… Got the regular Sicilian pie with peppers and onions (uncooked), sauce was tasteless except for the tons of salt, barely any cheese and dough wasn’t cooked enough… What gives? They may have been good at one time, but not anymore. So many restaurants going down hill lately…

Pizza is not exactly rare fare on Staten Island so there has to be more than good pizza to please me. And Paesano’s also has great service. For example the first time I walked in was not to buy anything but to get out of the FREEZING cold while waiting at the bus stop on Bradley. I figured there’d probably be some dirty looks and they might even ask me to leave — but they were nice and even generous when I also needed some change. And again — I wasn’t buying anything.
That said the food is good. Tasty pizza with just plain cheese. And I was at a party they catered once and can also recommend their chicken marsala and vodka penne. Awesome stuff!

Very bad pizza that tastes like matzah.

I used to live on Staten Island and moved to Washington DC. Whenever I come home, I HAVE TO eat Paesano’s Pizza. This is one of the BEST pizzas that I’ve ever had in my life. I read J.T.‘s review below and can’t help but think that perhaps he meant to be reviewing Joe & Pat’s? The crust here isn’t that thin. The sauce and cheese are also — UH-​MAZING!
This pizza is so good that it was even featured on the Ellen Show! Seriously. Ellen (being her funny self) wanted to try some ‘Good Staten Island Pizza’ — and where did she call? Paesano’s! Her audience was very pleased.
The locale is small and parking can be a little bit of a pain with their funky lot (i.e., sometimes cars park behind other cars because the second car is really just running errands in and out), but delivery is usually pretty fast too unless it’s a Friday night.
Recently, I’ve been enjoying the fresh mozzerela slices, but all of their choices are very good.
I have to stop typing now. Seriously. Or I’m going to cry about how much I miss having Paesano’s right down the street. There is NO PIZZA in D.C. like Paesano’s — or any pizza on Staten Island for that matter. So sad!
