Gio's Pizza

Gio's has good pizza. They even have good pasta. The storefront is basic but it is all about the pizza

This is not going to be a pretty review. It is a whole lot more fun to write glowing tales of great experiences, but I am sadly disappointed by Gio's Pizza. One 12" Supreme ordered on-site to go.I ordered and took a seat along the wall to wait and immediately noticed the place was filthy. The corridor to the back door looked like a badly run day care. Half eaten plates of cold food and McDonald's bags were everywhere. Children were playing in a tray of pizza dough like it was modeling clay. Disgusting, but okay, let that one go. Pizza came and I hit the road home. Opening the box, the first thing I noticed were the large par-cooked wedges of colored peppers on top of the pie. Large wedges are great in antipasto, but not so great on my pie. And I love green peppers in a supreme pizza, but properly portioned and fully cooked. Hmmm? Interesting, I thought. Open my mind and give it a try. The next thing I noticed was that Gio's had failed to cut the pie. Hmmm, again. Never seen that before in a take-out pizza. Maybe that's just how they do it. I did not ask for it to be cut. Lift the pie out of the box onto my cutting board. The bottom of the box was soaking wet. Not greasy wet, water wet. Can't explain the physics of this one, but my disappointment was mounting and the product becoming increasingly suspect. These folks advertise "New York style crispy thin crust". Definitely not. Good crust, but nowhere near thin and crispy. Gotta give Gio's five stars on their pizza sauce. As good as it gets. Tossing the par cooked peppers, the pie was excellent for what it was with one picky exception. Their ham is portioned into small cubes, rather than a traditional thin slice. Looked like something from a Spam ad on TV. Well hey, I love Spam and am probably being too picky. Gio's? Not now, not again, not for me.

Just spent $43 on one large, one small pizza. Not worth a nickel. If anyone remembers the original Gio's then you know how good and big the slices were. One slice would fill a whole dinner plate; now you can fit 3 slices on one paper plate. If you're reading a review, make sure you check the date. Any review over 2-3 years is probably for the original Gio's. I can't believe he let them put his name on this pizza. Cheese and crackers. The cheese is such poor quality, it doesn't even melt right. Anyone from the east coast knows exactly what I mean. The crack of the crust and the strings of melted mozzarella. If you think their pizza is good now, you've never had real pizza. I hope for their sake they listen and take this review to heart.

Ordered for delivery: large cheese, large meatball, large pepperoni, 2 dozen wings, pizza knots. Cheese and meatball pizza was good. Pepperoni was off not good. Pizza knots soggy and undercooked and wings also came undercooked. Both required additional cook time in the oven.

New owners, please bring back the old recipes. You had a good thing going. All the changes have been making it worse. We keep giving you a second try, but it's going the wrong direction. Nice people, but the new crust is bad.

This is a totally different neighborhood pizza place. We use to go once a week but now I'm sad to say we won't be back. The price and the service are just not worth the cost.

What happened? This used to be great, now it's not. New owners need to ask the previous owners to help out. This was go-to pizza, now it's avoid completely.

Pizza might have been good but it arrived stone cold. Delivery person was supposed to text or call at arrival and that did not happen. Very disappointed.

Really great pizza and customer service. We got a supreme and all the ingredients were fresh and full of flavor, crust was perfect! Staff was very polite and friendly. Will be going back again soon!

it was was a good experience, I was with my two other friends hanging out, and the server Nathan, made us a pizza all by himself. thank you again
