Got an order of 2 meatballs and a large half cheese/half pepp pizza. From the first bite, the meatballs were amazing. Needed to be warmed up, but the flavor was so great I didn't even mind. the pizza crust was a great texture and thickness, with a good ratio of cheese and toppings. I could not stop eating the slices! Had to give some to a friend to save myself some calories. If I didn't have so many more pizza places to try in the neighborhood, I would definitely be eating Pesto every time I wanted Italian. Can't wait to try more toppings and appetizers as soon as I can though!

I just came here to say the bread & rolls That they bake here to me are even better than the great ones like sarcones or other area bakeries! Just the texture the lightness i could go in about other delish things off menu.. but bread & i are best of friends lol .. my parma sandwich was so fresh so tasty as was the Stromboli! But im type person takes half my entree home because getting hung up on bread & butter or spiced olive oil!!! oh & please..the restaurant next door just is amazing!

I've lived in the neighborhood for many years. You have always been my #1 place for pizza. But, my recent experience has changed my mind. I ordered on my phone. For some reason, I assumed the "Slice" method of ordering was my only choice. (I see now that it is not.) A few things that I questioned: 1) the receipt on my pizza box said the price was $11.50 but the menu price says $12.50. 2) the receipt on my fries said the price was $4.00 but he menu price says $4.75. 3) I was charged $3.45 for a "Support Local Fee". I don't know what this is and, apparently, I didn't have a choice about paying it. 4) Why was I given a 5% discount? 5) To my great surprise, the pizza (Capricciosa) was mediocre. In the past your pizza has always been superior.Maybe most of this is because I was using an outside "service" and was unaware of it. But, the whole thing is confusing/misleading to me. It used to be much easier to buy a pizza. If I decide to give you another chance, I will definitely order my pizza in person. Hope you will try to do better. Thanks

Served was great. They said 60- 80 mins, arrived in 20. With that said the Gluten free pizza was under cooked and had too much sauce. It tasted like Schar premade Gluten Free crust.Potato pizza was fine.

I like this place and it is my go to for pizza simply because in the pizza desert that is Philly, it beats every place else in terms of both quality and price. I mean this honestly and the pizza is really quite good most of the time. The problem, though, and the reason for three stars is twofold:1.) They tend to be quite stingy with their toppings. I don't expect my pizza to have mounds of toppings, but if I order mushrooms, for example, I do expect there to be more than one or two mushrooms per slice.2.) They always, and by always I mean ALWAYS forget something. If I order pepperoni, mushroom and olives I'll get two out of the three. If I order mushroom and onion, I'll get onion only. This happens nearly every time in addition to being stingy with the toppings. I've called a couple of times to make them aware of their errors but it seems to fall on deaf ears.So I'm a at a bit of a crossroads here. I can no longer feel good about ordering pizza from this place but at the same time, it really is one of the few places near me that has good pizza. Maybe they know this so they cut corners? My only other alternatives are double price and not nearly as good (I'm looking at you Mara's and Pizza Plus, among others) or to make my own, which I do but it isn't really practical on the spur of the moment.

Pizzeria Pesto....how I love you. You had me a white pizza with ricotta. You are my go to on a Friday. I brought a pie up to my 97 year old Italian Aunt a state away and she also couldn't stop raving about it even though it was hours old and reheated. The crust is cris, and there is the right balance of toppings. Cooked just right. You make my heart sing, and my tummy full.

My wife has a lot of food allergies so there aren't many places we can order food from that are safe for her. We found pizzeria pesto and cannot say enough good things about them. Their sicilian pizza is one of the best pies we've ever had. They make their own rolls, which are available for purchase. They are baked without any sesame seeds which allow my wife to enjoy bread, if she so chooses. Last night I ordered the penne with chicken and broccoli Alfredo, it was absolutely phenomenal. I also have to comment on their sausage roll, which I recently tried. Picture an open ended stromboli stuffed with sausage, peppers, onion, red gravy, and mozzarella cheese. It is really a treat. The staff has always been very accommodating. Claudio and his crew make it very easy for us to have a delicious and safe dinner when we want to order out. Thank you for a wonderful meal and a great experience. Grazie,The Perry Family
