“ What an amazing experience! So we decided to dine here and tried their outdoor igloo dining and it was absolutely beautiful! I will recommend that you book this experience in advance as it does get reserved really quickly. I would also recommend calling if you don't see a date/time available! The food was delicious and drinks was amazing! The staff were super friendly and to be honest, that made the experience that much better! Cory; you were amazing! THANK YOU THANK YOU ”
“ This was our first time here. As soon as you arrive you're greeted by a very well lit storefront. It reminded me of the pizza shops I used to frequent back in the days. When you walk in from the crisp winter Long Island air, you'll feel super cozy and warm like you're in an Italian household (which you are). Everyone's busy but takes the time to greet you with a smile. Ava was our server and she was such a joy and very personable. We started off with the crispiest calamari with marinara and chili sauce. I ordered the Drunken Chicken Parm with Rigatoni and my love ordered the Sexy Rigatoni along with a couple of glasses Sauv Blanc and Cab Sauv. The food is wonderfully flavorful and served in huge portions so make sure you fast for 24 hours so you can scarf it all down. Haha! We ended up taking leftovers home and saved room for some cannolis which were bomb dot com. They allowed to walk to the back of the restaurant to take a peek at their heated igloos which require a $200 minimum bill Friday-Sundays from 4pm to close. Def coming back here. I appreciate the gentleman that walked around to check that everyone's food was satisfactory. ”
“ Note to any other restaurants attempting to do igloo dining: if you're not doing it like Pietro's, don't bother. This was one of my favorite dining experiences in recent months. Our server, Adrianna went above and beyond to ensure my friend and I knew the ins and outs of the menu, was so attentive, and also spoke so highly of the restaurant and her coworkers. The igloo experience was fantastic. So spacious and because of the heater, I didn't even realize I was outside! The interior of the igloos were so nicely decorated. Now for dinner: I got the drunken chicken parm and oh my word. So much flavor and such a great portion size. The broccoli rabe on the side was cooked perfectly. I will 1000000% be back. ”
“ I saw a video of Pietro's igloo experience on Tik Tok and knew that I had to give it a try for myself. The reservations are scarce, so make sure you book out well in advance. About two hours before my reservation that I'd had for over a week I got a call from the front desk. They told me that the heaters weren't working. It was a 30 degree day so we were very disappointed and decided to cancel. About an hour later they called to tell us that the heaters were back up and running and that even though they had cancelled our reservation they still held onto it for us. I appreciated the consistent communication. When we arrived we were met with the most gorgeous holiday decor. The igloo was very private and heated well. I have a dairy allergy and they said they could make nearly any entree dairy free with some slight modifications. They made me a dairy free chicken francese that was maybe one of the best things I've eaten a year. It had a kick of lemon and was seasoned very well. The portion sizes were huge so I had enough for leftovers. I am told that the igloos are air conditioned in the summer , so I'd like to try it out during a summer month as well. Either way, I will definitely be a returning customer at Pietro's. ”
“ OMG! This place was so much fun with the igloos and carolers! Came here recently with 8 of my friends for a girls dinner and we lovedd the igloos, decorations and our waiter Cory was amazing and didn't rush us!! The appetizers and eggplant parm were delish and the portions are enough for two meals. The other girls got pizza and they really enjoyed the sesame crust. I am so glad I made this reservation early as I think they are booked for WEEKS! The owner also came over and asked how we were and all the staff looked really nice working there. I forgot to buy a pizza ornament when I was there but I'll be back to get one ;) ”
“ Pietro's is one of my all-time favorite spots! I've been here so many times with my family, and it never disappoints. The pizza is *next-level,* especially that sesame crust--it's seriously one of a kind. My go-to? The Drunken Grandma Square slice. Absolute perfection! We just celebrated my mom's birthday here and sat in one of their adorable igloos. The Christmas decorations are magical, and they go all out with the details. Pro tip: make a reservation if you want to snag an igloo--it's totally worth it! To make the night even more special, they had Christmas carolers who stopped by our igloo to sing. It felt so personal and added such a festive, heartwarming touch to the evening. The food here is incredible--don't miss the garlic knots, calamari, and, of course, the pizza. Pietro's is the perfect spot for a cozy family dinner or a fun holiday night out. Highly recommend! ”
“ On a Tuesday late afternoon, we were greeted right away and set up in the outdoor seating area. FYI, if you want to sit in the domes, it starts strictly after 4pm and it's recommended you make a reservation. All staff smiled and greeted us while we waited for our table to be set up in the back. Our waitress was very kind and gave just the right amount of attention. She perfectly poured the draft Peroni beers for my dad and I. We ordered the fried calamari, Caesar Salad, and MVP GRANDMA Pie to share. My daughters ordered the personal pizza and the chicken tenders with fries. The whole family loved the food. It was all delicious! Loved the decor and vibes are great. The bathroom was super clean too. We will be back to experience the dining in the domes outside and try more of the menu. I also want to take pictures by the big mural of Rocky and Apollo Creed on the side of the restaurant. ”
“ Came here for my bday with the family and the domes are so perfect for that! We comfortably sat 8 people in there. I love the outdoor area so much, it's so charming and so is the interior decor. We ordered tons of food including mozzarella squares, calamari, pizzas, meatballs, lasagna, spicy pork chop, house salad and more! Everything was delicious. I loved the lasagna and thin, fried pork chop. And the sesame seed crust is always a hit. Oh and the Nutella empanadas are a MUST! Staff is always so friendly and accommodating. Will def be returning. ”
