" I’m glad I stopped by Pacileo's! Their appetizers were a wonderful way to start, and the pizza that followed was perfection on a plate. Loved the atmosphere, too—it felt inviting and warm. The only sour note was a longer wait for our food, but it was worth it for the meal we got in the end! I will absolutely return next time I'm in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Pacileo's last night. Wow! What a hidden gem! The apizza was truly delightful—the crispy crust paired perfectly with their rich marinara sauce. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed dinner with friends. Service was prompt; the waitstaff was friendly and attentive. I also tried their garlic knots, which were tasty. Can't wait to go back and try their pasta dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a nice evening at Pacileo's! The atmosphere is casual yet charming, perfect for a family dinner. We ordered a variety of dishes to try, including the meatball sub, pizza, and a pasta dish. Everything was fantastic, but my favorite was definitely the pizza. The crust stood out: perfectly thin and crispy. The service was attentive, and we left feeling satisfied. I'm eager to come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made it to Pacileo's, and it did not disappoint! Just stepping inside felt like home, with the warm decor and welcoming staff. I ordered the shrimp fra diavolo, and while the pasta was plentiful, I was shocked at how few shrimp were in the dish. I think I had only about five small pieces. The sauce was great, but they could have been more generous with the seafood. Still, I enjoyed the meal overall, and the pizza my friend got looked amazing! I'll definitely give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a place that serves authentic New Haven-style pizza, look no further than Pacileo's! The crust is perfectly thin and has good bite. I tried the margherita pizza, and it was delightful with fresh basil and cheese. However, I was a bit disappointed when I ordered a side of meatballs, which were overly salty. Overall, despite the meatball mishap, the pizza alone was worth it, and the vibrant atmosphere really completes the dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit Pacileo's, I am reminded of why it is my favorite pizza spot. The flavors are always consistent and tantalizing. The crust is crispy, and I appreciate the generous amount of toppings they offer on every pie. The staff is always friendly, making the dining experience enjoyable. I've noticed improvements in their service over time, and I truly believe they value customer feedback. Do yourself a favor—try the barbecue chicken pizza! " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to satisfy my pizza craving at Pacileo's last week. I must say, it did not live up to the hype for me. The crust was way too crunchy, almost to the point of being hard. While the toppings were generous, I felt like something was missing in the flavors. Service was fair, but my experience didn't quite meet my expectations. Maybe I just caught them on an off day.
