They have the best pizza ever! I have relocated to Arizona but continue to frequent Lakeside and the area. EVERY TIME we are here whether it’s for a day or a few days we ALWAYS at least get a pizza to go to take with us. The best pizza hands down ever!!!! keep it up you guys don’t change!

I called in my order and picked up two pizzas to bring home for dinner. The Quattro formaggio was perfect with spinach added to it. The crust was so crisp and thin, it made the perfect base for the yummy cheese toppings! The pepperoni pizza was crisp as well and my family loved it!

I have to say that I was not impressed with this place, it’s service, or food. The food was mediocre. I had the Lobster ravioli. Which was nothing special. The veggie soup was very flavorful. The antipasto salad was not good at all. The meat tasted a little funky. The service was not very good. There was only one cook and one waitress. I heard someone complain about how long things were taking. The waitress was servicing about four different tables at the time. Three had four people at each, the other had one person. From the time we received our drinks it took about 15 -20 minutes for her to come back to our table to take our food order. I will not visit this place again. Just wasn’t my cup of tea.

Everything we had was delicious! The best Tiramisu me and my son have ever had. Homemade by the lady that waited on us. I’m guessing she might be one of the owners. We were very happy we decided to go there and we will return!

This place has been around for a long time. The pizzas are great. It’s a nice little family restaurant. My wife loved the lasagna. It came with a house salad and garlic bread.

Real pizza with quality ingredients. Excellent. 99 percent of pizza places in California would not last an hour back east. This place can hold it’s own.

We have been to Gaetano’s twice. Both times great service and the pizza is fabulous. Thin crispy crust, baked to perfection. What a gift for Lakeside, CA
