Never been there before. Met my daughter for lunch today. They call it Ps at Elmira College. Nice, clean, causual setting. Very friendly waiter. Very good pizza. Garlic knots out of this world. Two lunches and drinks under $25. I will definitely be back. Great spot to met up with daughter and give her a study break. Cant beat it.
Absolutely wonderful experience here. Went during lunch time and the server was friendly and attentive. The bread is AMAZING and made fresh in the restaurant. The food is delicious, it really feels like your at home, no rush whatsoever. Good prices too! Highly recommend trying it out!
Decent pizzeria, the quality fluctuate depending on the day. Since it has changed hands the quality has been better, but there is an issue with how the atmosphere is. The owner seems to eat more than manage his place and it always seems as though there are children doing all the work. Even though they are respectful and curtious theres been a bit of drama being thats a family advertised setting and seems to be family run.
Worse Caesar salad Ive ever had. Lots of pieces of browned and some slimy lettuce. Chicken was hard and dry. So overcooked that one of the pieces of chicken was black on top and hard as a rock. Told server, he apologized and asked if I wanted another salad brought out, but by that point I had already picked through it all and I didnt have the time to wait. Brought the bill with no compensation offered. When I asked he took the bill back and asked permission to give me a discount. Might be okay for pizza or a sandwich, but dont have a salad. If you have the time, just drive to Louies instead! Awesome salads with tender juicy chicken, and many other things there!
Very disappointed. What used to be my familys favorite restaurant is no more. We gave our orders at 5 pm. Our drinks came out at a decent time, but the garlic knots didnt come out until well after our salads. At this point our entrees came out intermittently. One person in our party was given the wrong side. When we asked for it to be corrected, we got charged extra for the proper side. A second person in our party waited an hour after her entree was brought out to get her side. A third person in our party didnt get their meal brought to them until around 7 pm. That is 2 hours after we ordered, about an a hour and 15 minutes after the rest of us were served our meals. We eat as a family. That being said, we waited to eat our meals until all meals were served. Needless to say, all meals were cold by the time the last meal was brought out. So without taking a single bite out of our entrees, we asked for to-go boxes, the check and left. We will never be coming back again.

2022-03-20I paid $17.00 for a shrimp scampi that was maybe like .... A childs size portion i was quite surprised how little was in my order. The food was good but i will never spend that much money there again. And i couldve saved $9.00 by not getting the calamari i ordered there were two different kinds in the box 2 pcs. Of the regular kind of normal fried calamari when you think of fried calamari and then weird calamari-type onion rings Ive never seen before that were disgusting Im not even sure if it was calamari tbh. Not a fan.

2021-10-05While visiting Elmira today….. I had the pleasure of enjoying this hearty and delicious Veal Parmigiana meal for lunch. The garlic knots and fresh baked bread was perfect. Thank you for the great food and friendly service Pietro & Son!!

2021-11-29The Tiramisu was excellent. I also quite enjoyed the Antipasto. The Italian dressing they use goes great with it. My girlfriend loved the dipping oil for the bread.

2021-08-23After calling to see if there was any seating available and was told after a brief pause that there was a table leaving and would just have to wait a couple mins to be cleaned. We parked, went in and we never got seated after 20 mins and very little communication from anyone. We got up and left and and had a wonderful meal at Giuseppe’s. We wanted to try Pietro, but they clearly cater to their regulars (guy behind counter talking to other customers by name) over new customers. We clearly got the hint and will happily continue to support Giuseppe’s.

2019-07-23We were his best customers. We went there several times a week.I am willing to pay for extra meatsauce. As for me, I always go spaghetti with meatsauce. Whenever Mrs. is cooking, she always gives me way less meatsauce than everyone else. Tonight, I sent my plate back and told the fine waitress to just give me the bill for the salads. I know what to expect but Mrs. gets so stingy on meatsauce. Whats outrageous is, Im willing to pay for extra meatsauce & I even ask for it,...and it was STILL stingy!We dont go there any more. No such thing as meatsauce at Pietros anymor, in my opinion. Last meatsauce we got there looked more like tomatoe sauce. Check out this meatsauce! We asked for extra meatsauce and were willing to pay for it. Instead of meatsauce, it looks more like tomato sauce to me. WHERES THE MEAT?

2020-03-15Service was excellent! Thats a huge deal these days. I had a very good experience.Food was great. Salad was fresh and crisp with wonderful house Italian dressing.Table bread was awesome. Still warm and baked perfectly. Both the knots and the load where perfect.I strongly recommend to stop in for a meal if you are given the chance.

2020-02-15Best pizza Ive had in a long time!! Sauce, perfect! Cheese, perfect amount! Topping, perfect amount! Crust, perfect! Phone service, incredibly pleasant! In store customer service, again very pleasant! Even the price was decent!!My new go to spot for pizza in Elmira!!!Update: Had to take away five star rating...ordered meals twice from here, first time stuffed shells were cold and minimal. Had to wait 15 minutes for cheese bread. Second time was even worse. Both meals I ordered this time were not even edible they tasted so bad. Ended up spending $30 on salad (only thing that was kinda decent). Apparently pizza is the only good thing here??
