I met up with some friends at this joint for some pizza and I was not impressed. It tasted funny to most of us, maybe it was the combination of the toppings? I dont know but I wouldnt go there again....

My family has been going to Mama Petrillo's since 1960. It has a great pizza pie, that is indisputable. Great pizza sauce, great pizza dough.

The dining area is really cramped, and I know that quality food comes at a premium cost, but I have a hard time rationalizing how it's OK to pay more than $20.00 for one pizza!

Is there any relation to the Petrillo's digs on Valley Blvd? Same deal pretty much. The pizza is legit, but have only taken-out here, never dined in on the full menu

I've eaten here for 30 years! The best part were the little thick cut pepperoni. But the summer of 2004, they changed the sauce, and it is now okay, not great. I hope it was just an off day.
