Zerillo's Pizza

Well, this review starts off on a negative note. NO, not about Zerillo's, but about ANOTHER Italian place I attempted to go eat at (THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED, that I could tell you is maybe twice the price as here, and that's all I'll say about it) which turned me away, so on my way back home seething a little, I stop here. And my night turned around.This is a cute little spot, that's like a lot of fast casual New York style pizzerias, and VERY good. The interior is bright, welcoming, and overall very clean. The girl at the counter was cheerful and greeted me upon arriving. She told me to expect my food in about twenty minutes (well, it was more like twenty-three, but who's counting, right?)I was definitely in the mood for Italian, but nothing overly fancy, just simple good, comfort food. I went for their baked ziti and had a side salad with it. Since the food's reasonably priced, I added some wings to the order for my partner. I live sort of a long way from Oldsmar, but the food was still fresh and hot, and the salad crisp, when I got back. I REALLY loved the ziti! There was a good ratio of ricotta, mozzarella, and actual tomato in it (not heavy marinara with little cheese like I sometimes get with ziti). I had a nice creamy texture to it and the pasta was perfectly cooked. It's a huge portion, so I divvied it with my partner, and had the side salad which was just the right size, all fresh and crisp. The food really hit the spot, and maybe it was a good thing I took a detour from that OTHER place (THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED). Thank you, Zerillo's for your hospitality and good food.

Finally found a great pizza slice here in Tampa.Zerillos slice was full of tasty cheese and a hint of garlic.100% reminds me of my favorite nyc pizza places back home a must try..

Cute little pizza place in an almost deserted strip mall in Oldsmar. The guy at the register was extremely nice and friendly.I ended up going with their lunch special (which I loved was still available on weekends). I got one slice of cheese pizza, and the side caesar salad with balsamic dressing instead of caesar dressing, plus a fountain soda.I sat at one of the three booths available, and had my salad quickly in front of me. The pizza was warmed up, then brought out to my table. Both were really good. The salad tasted fresh, and the cheese pizza had a great flavor.I'm never in this area, but if I were, this would be on my pizza pie rotation.

They catered my mom's retirement dinner and it was awesome! They made us mini strombolis and meatballs, along with salad. Everything was delicious! Can't wait to go in person to the restaurant soon.

Excellent pizza and calzone! Great service and nice to have a great pizza place in Oldsmar again!

For quick service and to go, it was fine. We tried to call twice. One time we got a person who put us on hold and never came back. Next time the phone rang busy. We had told the gentlemen at check out who came to match the voice. All he did was laugh and say nothing else. Other than that experience, it was reasonably priced. Note- this is not just a quick service. There is a whole restaurant in the other side that was packed with a full liquor bar. Can't wait to check that out in the future.

The food is great, so glad that the owner decided to come back to Tampa and open a restaurant. The pizza and calzones are very well made and full of cheese and your choice of toppings. Cannot wait until they open the other side so that there are more tables for you to eat there. Until then there are only a few tables so you may not be able to eat in.

Yelp brought me here. Cute, clean & NY style ambience kept me here. Walk up counter, disco party lights on you as you walk in the door and stand in line, so you can place your order like the rockstar you are! ;) There's a small table top & 4 bar stool seats up against the front windows & 3 booths for an exclusive group of those that get a seat. When I walked in, there was one booth with two people occupied. Someone walked in right before me to place a to go order. 15 min wait. Not bad at all for a walk in. Numerous people came in, one after another to pickup orders placed over the phone. Which btw, continued to ring while I was there. Good sign! Soon enough, the 2 other booths and 3 of the bar stool seats were filled. Looking good Zerillo's! I asked for recommendations from the handsome & kind gentlemen taking my order & he said he really liked the chicken parm sub or meatball sub, which also came with a salad (I think?). Sorry I'm an ASKhole because I didn't take his recommendation. HA! I asked if he thought the wings were good? He said they were good and crispy because they fry them. I chose garlic Parmesan, but they also have buffalo hot & medium, bbq (I think) & teriyaki something. I also ended up ordering a pizza. Because, well, New York pizza was already on my mind. Btw, I didn't realize I could've ordered a slice of pizza y'all! I saw a sign for a slice special outside, but it was for lunch, between 11-3pm (btw) so I thought that was only for then! I didn't notice it on the menu, but maybe I just missed it? I overheard a lady that came in order a slice, and y'all!! It was legit 3 slices!! Booo! So, I had already ordered their smallest pizza on the menu, which is a 14", medium. Zerillo's specialty pizza comes with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions and peppers. They brought my food out in to go boxes, which, I guess I didn't ever say that I was eating there. But, no harm no foul. I honestly knew I was going to take most of it back to the hotel anyway, so that worked out. (I ended up eating 2 wings and 2 slices) The chicken wings were in fact, crispy. They were swimming in what I assume was olive oil? Parmesan for sure, and the garlic, I honestly didn't taste as much. They weren't bad at all though. There was a good amount of meat on them, they were steaming hot, and the ranch that it was served with them was good too. The star of the show, the pizza, was not thick, and really more on the thin side. Which I personally like & prefer. The sauce was yummy. The cheese was good and the toppings were great. It was steaming hot, which is why I honestly wanted to eat it there. There's just something about eating a fresh pie out of the pizza oven. Yummm!!! Oh! They also serve wine, beer, some seltzers, and I overheard some regulars they were talking to say that they're excited for the expansion. From the outside, you can see there's a space right next-door to them that they're going to be taking over. There will definitely be more indoor seating. I also heard them say they're going to have a TV too so you can watch your sports or whatever might be on, and of course to enjoy some adult beverages, sodas for those that prefer, and you can't forget some yummy fresh and delicious food! Cute little spot! I was pleased with the food too. Will definitely come back to try some of their other menu items. Friendly service is always appreciated! If you like pizza, & according to others, there's other things on the menu that are good too, you should def come by! I may be back before I leave town to try some chicken parm! Thanks Zerillo's!

I was craving the classic salad and a slice you can get on Hollywood Beach and I found their lunch special here. It was so good! Highly recommend.

Great super thin NY pizza.Slightly crispy crust. Great balance, great flavor. Pizza by the slice.A good size slice was $3 and well worth it.
