Family Pizzeria

Seriously done with businesses run by bigots. The food is below average. The service is horrible. The people suck. Manninos is way better anyway.

This is one of my favorite pizza places in the area. They have a great deal: 2 regular pies for $ 20. You can’t beat that and the pies are great here.

the best carry out pizza Restaurant near Rosedale NY. The salad pizza is Amazing and nothing taste cheap here.

Always pleased with their dishes. Chicken parm is great and Caesar salad. Fast delivery and take out orders ready fast!

I live a 5 minute walk from this pizzeria AND it was right next to my high school. And guess what? I practically had pizza all the time during since it was like $ 2 per slice. Random footnote: I’m really sorry, I am a small 4’11 and weigh approximately 100 pounds and I may eat more than people my body frame but one slice of pizza is definitely not enough! I usually need 2 to be content!!! (Some of my guy friends here come and grab 3 – 4 slices haha)
Well anyways. Pepperoni is something like $ 2.75 now? And the other slices like the pasta slices, chicken caeser slice, buffalo chicken, etc are $ 3. I don’t know why you would have high expectations for a small place like this. Personally, I enjoyed the hell out of the chicken caeser slices and garlic knots (considering I used to come here all the time during lunch). They have other things such as pasta, burgers, fries, salads, etc on their menu. Their fries are alright, I’ve tried their fettucine alfredo which was like $ 11 and plus another few dollars for chicken which was alright. I don’t know, I’m not a picky pizza consumer. Their slices are just a tad bit bland (yep! that’s why I dump a lot of pepper flakes or parmesan cheese on it) but it’s really just fine.
They do have a very small parking lot and street parking though so cars are pretty much somewhat in and out. Also, they do have a bunch of chairs + tables inside and it is somewhat spacious! So there’s not really much of a seating issue unless you’re coming to this place during lunch time on the weekends in which all the high school students all gather up in.
Since I moved up to Buffalo (the pizza there is atrocious. I hate it.), I really learned to appreciate this small business so when I came back for winter break, I immediately came here to grab a bite. Don’t hype yourself over the pizza. It’s fine, but it’s not crappy. Relaxxxx

This place is within walking distance from my home. There have been many pizzerias in this location prior to this one, but Family Pizzeria has lasted and for good reason. The food is adequate and reasonably priced and yes they have a lot of items on their menu but they have lots of students coming in from the local h.s. and so having a big menu probably creates more business for them. They are no Ancona’s, which is probably Valley Stream’s top pizzeria, but Ancona’s doesn’t deliver which sucks for a pizza place and Family does. I hope they stick around for a while.

Really good pizza. Not sure why they have a low rating. They have really good chicken marsala slice, chicken ceasar slice as well as other slices.

I’ve been meaning to check out Family Pizzeria out for awhile now since I pass it all the time on the road. With that said, I never had high expectations; with the generic name and the lack of reviews on here I figured this wasn’t exactly a gold mine but sometimes it pays to take chances.
Located on the always busy Mill Road, Family Pizzeria is the only pizza place in the immediate area. The little section of stores always seemed out of place but I guess when people want to stop for a bite, this is an option. Parking is irritating because the street parking is always packed by the employees’s cars and the private lot doesn’t even have any lines drawn in to separate spots.
The inside of the place is pretty open. Most pizzerias I’ve been to tend to be jam packed to the gills with tables but this one could stand to add a couple more. The interior is bright yet plain. It looks clean though with the pizzas and a couple other dishes are on display at the counter. Service was quick enough for my order so I can’t really complain on those fronts.
Our order was a large pie with garlic knots; an old standard for any pizzeria and gave us a good idea as to what level of quality we’re looking at. The presentation seemed nice enough where the cheese wasn’t overly runny or salty and the garlic knots appeared a nice plump size. Upon a closer inspection, we were all disappointed. The pizza was in a word, bland. I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a slice of pizza where I didn’t taste a single ingredient. The cheese, sauce and bread had a texture but no taste to go along with it; it was literally just made to fill up your belly. Only after applying some garlic powder did the pizza form some kind of a distinguishable flavor. The garlic knots were a tad too greasy and had an over-​abundance of garlic to the point that the other flavors were drowned out. Not the worst garlic knots I’ve ever had but they certainly could have been leaps and bounds better. The price was $ 14.50, which is average but for what you’re paying it doesn’t feel that way. With such a bland regular slice, the foundation for the majority of their other slices, its fair to say the rest won’t fair much better.
A big problem of Family is that they focus on too many different dishes; besides pizza you can get hamburgers, fries, sandwiches, and more. By putting your resources into so many different aspects; unless you have money to burn, you’re going to cause more harm than good. Focus on building towards your strengths such as removing the miscellaneous menu items such as burgers (because lets be real here, no one comes to a pizzeria for a burger) and put the money into buying better ingredients so your food has substance and pizazz. This is what separates you from the average pizzeria. Change your act and revamp your recipes and perhaps you’ll ascend above the level of mediocrity.

This place sucked
