Villa Italian Kitchen was founded with one store, one family, and one concept in 1964 when our founder, Michele “Michael” Scotto brought his authentic old-world recipes from Naples, Italy to New York City. Michele’s commitment to hospitality, quality ingredients (like homemade dough, 100% whole milk mozzarella and fresh sauce), and the strict loyalty to his now famous recipes, built the business. Since our first Villa Pizza next to the CBS/Ed Sullivan Theater on Broadway, our commitment to quality and genuine hospitality remains the basis of our foundation.

Came in and they had ran out of the Stromboli so I was going to leave,but the manager said if I waited he didn’t mind making it for me. Mind you that it was around 7:30pm. I waited and got the Stromboli fresh and its not even past 8pm. The taste was great! I loved it!! Definitely coming back for more!

Zero stars. Do Not order from here. Ordered a catering dinner for a work event and the only thing they delivered that was correct was one pizza. They didn’t deliver 2 salads so my non dairy people had NO food. They didn’t deliver the meatballs and two of the pizzas were stuck to the lid. When I called to get the meatballs and the salads they called me the liar and that they delivered everything correct per their driver. No compensation no apologies just you got the correct order per our driver. Who must have been high. To top it off the food was Disgusting. Worse place ever. You’ve been warned

Walked in and asked for a catering menu and was told I only needed to oder an hour ahead of time if they had no other orders infront of me , which I didn’t mind waiting an hour for a small catering oder that I had to come up with for a small 15 person meeting I had . The pizza was delicious my favorite was the Stromboli and Mac&cheese. Definitely ordering here again for my caterings.

Ive eaten there a total of 3 times (I didnt try the pizza though) and at first the food was ok then it was alittle bland the last time it was horrible all I could think was are they even tasting their food? They have good service the staff is nice, but the food is below par. I wont be eating there again. I ordered the baked Ziti there was little flavor, the pasta sauce was the consistency of water, the only flavor was the cheese and oregano. The spaghetti was worse no amount of oregano or cheese could make it appetizing. But we were hungry and we ate it unfortunately. Im sticking to Sbarros for my quick italian needs

We’ve eaten here a few times, the pizza is usually good. The penne pasta was bland, the meatballs are good but the marinara sauce is now watered down and it was good before. Took about 5 minutes to get a slight dust to even come out of the parmesan shaker. $20: slice, garlic bread, 2 med drinks & penne w/meatballs.

HORRIBLE experience. Did not like the workers’ attitude. My boyfriend and I told a worker we wanted the “perfect combo” meals. She then said we may choose whichever pizza. So I choose pepperoni and he choose chicken ranch. She then asked which side we wanted and we told her wings because that is the deal they have. When it was time to pay she was charging us more than expected. She then told us his pizza didn’t qualify for the deal. We then decided to switch it for a pepperoni one and she refused to let us. Then, she called another worker who was beyond rude to us. I wanted to let it pass and just pay for the amount so I gave her $10 in cash and told her the rest will be on my visa. I handed her cash first and she gave it back saying it was only $10. I then repeated $10 in cash and the rest will go on my card. A child wanted a refill and this worker told her,”oh honey, can you give me a moment? I’m dealing with THIS” and she looked at us. Like I said, horrible experience. The second worker was plain rude and unprofessional throughout the whole thing. We did end up paying for everything even though we could of just walked away. They don’t even deserve a star.

Super good pizza! I suggest getting a whole pizza, comes out fresh and hot. Great taste and giant slices too. Staff seems a bit unorganized, but still an ok place.

I wish I could go lower than 1 star. Food is bland, mediocre, and way too expensive for what you get. I recommend literally any other pizza place that sells slices
