La Villa is one of my favorite restaurant. It never fails I’ve been coming here for a very long time. I’ve done my birthday celebration and it was perfect. Everyone is so friendly. Andres our waiter is great he always so nice funny and always gets our order correct. Pasqual usually gives us the bread for the table and gives us the drinks my girls always say hello. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Marissa is hands down one of the best servers I've ever had! From the moment we sat down, she made us feel welcomed with her warm and friendly demeanor. She’s attentive without being overbearing, and her recommendations were spot on—everything she suggested was delicious! Marissa has a great knowledge of the menu and made sure our glasses were always full and that we had everything we needed. Her positive attitude and professionalism truly made our dining experience exceptional. If you’re lucky enough to have Marissa as your server, you’re in for a treat. She’s a true asset to the restaurant!

La Villa has been staple in my dining experience for as long as I can remember. I came here when i was much younger. My Grandfather used to take us for family dinner's at the original La Villa. Itis always quality food and a great atmosphere! Always consistent!

Andrea’s is an amazing waiter and person. He always makes us feel like we’re part of the La Villa Family. La Villa is a great Italian restaurant with a phenomenal staff and even better food.

Food was delicious but the real star of the show was the amazing services provided to my party by Andres. All the pizzas were great and I definitely recommend the cesar salad and fried calamari.

The food here is absolutely spectacular! I drive 2 hours just to come here for the delicious food. We love the baked ziti and the grandma pie. Their salads are very tasty, too! Highly recommend and looking forward to coming back!

We had Jayna and she was absolutely wonderful! she was so kind and attentive! we were with a toddler and when we ordered apple juice, she asked if we would like her to add water to it, which was so thoughtful and I have never experienced that at a restaurant before!

Great wood-fired pizza! They have many options for different pizzas, but stick with anything wood-fired.

I’ve been coming to La Villa for many years and it simply gets better every time. The Grandma pizza is the best around and the Chicken Parm is the greatest of all time. Incredible staff and ownership. You will never be disappointed.

Lovely, modern, freshly prepared food. Service was attentive and friendly.

Always love coming to this place. Pretty much everything on the menu is delicious so, no matter what you're in the mood for, you're going to enjoy your meal. The servers and staff are very attentive and pleasant. Jayna waited on us today and when you have someone on staff like her, it makes the dining experience that much more pleasant.

Sometimes I can get a bit social anxiety when I order food but the woman who works there, Giana.. she was very nice and welcoming. Explained what different dishes they had and which one she would recommend me getting. I did take her advice and I ended up loving my food !

Andreas was excellent. Service was outstanding. No issues. Food was perfect from salad to dessert. Can’t wait to return.

Awesome food...... the ingredients to use for all their food is top notch… Equate to home cooking Best waiter .... Andres

I am the most particular eater and won't order food from many places...this is my go to when I want great food...love this place..never disappoints...staff is so friendly and the food is delicious...the ceaser dressing is the absolute best I ever had...keep up the great work on serving delicious food

I come here often and Carlos is always amazing, the food is always delicious! One of best caesar salads I’ve had.

La villa is my favorite neighborhood spot! I’ve been coming here since I was a kid. The quality and consistency is always on point. The food is just so fresh and delicious! Andreas, our waiter, has been here for years and is very accommodating and friendly. Highly recommended restaurant!

We love la Villa! Is our favorite restaurant in the area, Quality and consistency over the years. The soups are exceptional and love the salads as well. What I like the best is that you can actually have other authentic Italian dishes that aren’t pizza or pasta. A very good option for the neighborhood.

one of the best authentic Italian cuisine restaurant in Howard beach.

I’ve been a patron of La Villa for many years. Their staff is friendly and their food is delicious.

Outstanding pizza and service. Pulled in after a disastrous trip to Kennedy airport. A friendly welcome that was just what I needed. Pizza cooked to perfection in a wood burning oven. Sauce maybe the best I’ve tasted in the last 30 years. Took me back to when I was a kid in NYC and there was lots of great pizza in places where they knew you and took care of you. Now it’s rare and you’re lucky to find a place like La Villa.

My first time here with my future wife and I must say the food was fantastic! Waiter was very attentive, food came out fast, and the mostly important part the food was fresh! We will definitely be back!

La Villa one of the best , authentic Italian restaurant with speciality pizzas best of both worlds, you get great service and great food all in one place , people been gatekeeping this restaurant well time for LA Villa to shine cause its one of the real place to go for quality Italian food and pizzas

We absolutely love this place. We eat there 2-3 times a week because it’s our “go to” place. The staff is friendly, the food is delicious and consistent and the atmosphere is a community favorite. They are flexible with their menu items and can accommodate every request. Most people, however, will find it pricey.

The most wonderful experience ever!!!

Food was AMAZING and fresh.😊 Jayna did great costumer service..will come back soon.

So nice to be back at LaVilla's! I can't believe it has been almost 25 years since we've had a chance to visit and it still felt like home! I loved that they still have the rear dining room although the outdoor patio looked so inviting as well! I knew I could count on them for delicious brocoli rabe dishes and chicken parmigiana, and they held true! I am so happy I finally had a chance to bring family to try LaVilla's! Hope to visit more frequently, again.

Best experience in a pizzeria, hands down! Top quality pizza. First time here, I intended on only having a regular slice but wanted to try their grandma slice, what looked like the owner, Alfredo was very welcoming and really appreciated his accommodation towards me. Lou, Victoria and Olivia were also very sweet in their service They have what they call “Mississippi Mud” which is an apple pie with cookie crust they warm up that had me staring through the glass like I was in a lab experiment! Great service, great food, come with your family! You will not be disappointed!

Atmosphere felt straight from Italy and food was amazing. The experience was phenomenal.

La Villa has some of the best tasting pizza, small selection of nice toppings along with traditional toppings such as pepperoni. They use a wood burning oven which cannot be beat as far as Great tasting pizza goes! Excellent jumbo sized wraps with fresh mozzarella, grape tomatoes, greens and house made dressings, fresh pasta, baked clams, calamari etc. I've been eating there for many years and the food quality is consistent. Prices are somewhat higher than average but it's always a pleasant experience eating such wonderful food. There's a little outdoor dining area in addition to indoor seating. Can get somewhat crowded during peak times, usually not such a quiet atmosphere.

I came to La Villa to get some work done and I had the best experience ever! Jayna gave the best service and was so attentive and kind. 10/10 would recommend!!

I’ve been eating there since 2013. That’s one of the best restaurant in Howard Beach and that server “Serafin” is the best.

My first time having lunch here and our server Serafin was amazing. Highly recommend

Having this restaurant in the neighborhood is the ULTIMATE treat. Always such a classy and delicious experience. The ingredients and food are top notch and so fresh. I also really like the classy music they play inside.

Best restaurant! Hands down.

Jayna is one of our favorite waitresses at La Villa Pizza. She is so attentive and welcoming and knows exactly how we like everything. We don’t even have to put in an order she knows what we want even before we have a seat. Great service, friendly, kind and pleasant.

The best italian restaurant in howard beach! Their specials, wraps, soups, pizza, you name it are delicious!!! Quality!!!

Best Italian food in town! We’ve ordered almost half the menu and it never disappoints. The waiters are attentive and kind, great service and great food.

Absolutely delicious veggie pizza and bread. Today is 4 days after big snow storm; parking lot cleaned beautifully

Serafin is one of the best waitress i know. I know him for more than 10 years. He is very polite and knows how to take care if clients.

Great pizza! The Little neck clam appetizer was delicious. The same entrée was too salty. The bread is the absolute star of this restaurant. My mom had veal. She loved it.

The food is always delicious! Waiters Andreas P and Serafin were fantastic as well!

Lavilla is one of the best Italian restaurants that me and my family enjoy and appreciate the best quality ingredients that you can get right from Italy. It’s a place that I trust and a place. There is no other place like this one. Everything is imported best of the best.

Very nice service from our server Jayna, food is a little to much for one person but is delicious the place is so clean and friendly with seating outside and was very pleasant thank you

Amazing Italian food! The ingredients are super fresh and delicious. First time was an incredible impression and we’re definitely coming back for more. Must try the tiramisu. We were served with 2 spoons but I at all of it. Everything was scrumptious.

Been to this place a lot, always great food and service. Jana was a good server this evening. Highly recommend for good quality food 😊.

I only came for two pieces of pizza and asked for a table for my kids and me. to ask that it was time for dinner. I was a little embarrassed because I didn't know how they would take care of me. But I can say that they treated me very well. I didn't feel like they didn't give me attention just for placing a small order. Thank you very much for your attention and your food. I hope to return with a large group next time. Thanks so much.

The pizza is very delicious here. The people are nice and welcoming. Looking forward to coming back with friends and family next time.

La Villa is by far one of my favorite Italian Restaurants in Queens. Between the Chicken Parm & their grandma’s slices, we always leave La Villa Satisfied and full. Our favorite day to come in is Definitely Sunday. You have Marissa and Brittany work, what I like to call the Dynamic Duo. They always work so well together, always smiling, no matter how busy it gets! Jorge and Carlos might only be runners but they always help the girls. The staff on Sunday is one of a kind ! Would recommend

Come for a meal or just the AMAZING COFFEE and a good dessert. Attentive wait staff make you feel pampered. You can have a. Conversation even when it's busy.

This is what we call our spot because of the staff like Andreas, food and outside seating is amazing we feel like we are away on vacation. A must to do and eat place.

Food was delicious and our server Andres was amazing! He was very attentive the entire time we were there. We will definitely be back!

Delicious tasty food and great service. Perfect for lunch or dinner

The restaurant has great pizza but the Soups should not be overlooked. Had two different soups this week and the chicken with vegetables should not be missed.

Helen Brady

Had such an excellent dinner tonight. Our favorite Friday night get away and served by one of our favorite servers who always provides such friendly , humorous and attentive service. Thank you Carlos! You always make our night.

Louis D'Andrea

Always loved this place from back when it was just a pizzeria. The staff is very nice and the food is great, definitely give this place a try. Get the focaccia della nonna pizza to share as well!

Alby

Always a pleasure to go there have their pizza..even an espresso coffee is so good..that's the owner choice to be always the top in what they are doing.

Melida P

Amazing experience, great food, spectacular service. I have absolutely no complaints! 10/10 Thank you so much Carlos for the great service. Also to the amazing chefs for their marvelous food

Romana Ramzan

We thoroughly enjoyed the Romana Pizza and chicken parmigiana canzone! The food is delicious. There Nutella calzone is also a must try

gabriel ramos

i had a avocado salad that i thought was very good. The fried calamari was excellent and the marinara sauce that comes with it had hint of a spicey flavor which I loved. The service was great. The place has a calming relaxing feel to it. I would definitely come back

Sabrina Catello

Absolutely delicious from start to finish! The food is authentic and full of flavor — you can taste the freshness in every bite. The pasta is cooked perfectly, sauces are rich and balanced, and the portions are generous without being over the top. The staff is friendly, our waiter Serafin was very attentive, and they made us feel like family. Cozy atmosphere, great wine selection, and truly one of the best Italian spots around. Can’t wait to go back!

Gloria Gabriel

This is one of the greatest places!!! The food is the best ever! Carlos was our server he was so accommodating pleasant… an excellent waiter! We will definitely be back! It’s our once or sometimes twice a week spot!

Jay Jefe

Amazingg amazing entrees try the veal and pepperoni wood fired pizza amazing 🤩 Andreas best waiter was attentive and good customer service. dine in or order and pick up the food is amazing fresh ingredients. Romantic vibes at night.

Freddie

Wow, exceeded my expectations! I was expecting a small brick and mortar shop but as soon as I walked in I loved the atmosphere. They have ambient lighting inside and looks very high end w gorgeous tan booths. There is an outside seating section as well w large umbrellas for comfortable eating. The food though, phenomenal! I had the personal size Napoletana pizza and it’s amazing! Fresh out of the oven, thin and chewy and oh so scrumptious. Five big stars!

Michelle Castellano

Gorgeous local spot. Been ordering pizza from them for decades and decided to do a family girls night for the holidays on Friday. Food was great but even better was the staff. Amazing, friendly and generous. I loved that my family raved about my recommendation to go there. Keep up the great work!! Ps- the Zeppoli’s were like pillowy pockets of heaven 🌲♥️

Lisa

Just had a delicious dinner... The food and service was amazing.. Jayna our server was awesome... She regularly checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed....will definitely be coming here again and looking for Jayna.

I’ve been dining at La Villa in Howard Beach for years. I travel from afar since they have consistently good service and good food. In the warmer months I enjoy eating outside on the patio. Inside, they have a pizza counter with some seating overlooking their pizza oven, but you can certainly sit in the main dining room or back room when it’s open. During my most recent visit Marisa and Andres served us and were very attentive and helpful. The only area of improvement is their music selection. I love that it’s mostly Italian, but perhaps they can choose some more lively beats.

Mariano Quiñones

First time here and overall the look and feel of the place was very nice and modern esp for dine-in. The wait staff was excellent, had no issues here. They offered a traditional menu of Italian food and many daily specials which they change often it seems and that’s great for variety. I had the baked little neck clams and they were good, the lasagna and it was delicious and also they vegetable soup which had incredibly flavor. For dessert we had the crème brûlée cheesecake which was also good. It doesn’t seem they are very big on appearance when it comes to food but if your looking for a good spot to sit down and some good to enjoy, you won’t go wrong here.

My friend and I dined here a couple of weeks ago. It was our first time eating at this location. I have been eating their Chicken Caesar wraps since the early 2000's. The food was delicious, and our server, Marissa, was so kind and helpful. She was attentive and always addressed us with a big smile. Overall I would eat here again.

Luis is a great server, a little cold in here so it cooled my pizza

The food was delicious, the wait wasn’t long for takeout and it was a bit packed. The staff was friendly and attentive. My only complaint is the smell of firewood. It was really strong, I know they use wood to cook but I left smelling like I was at a camp fire.

Enjoyed myself here. Outdoor patio area is nice meal time. Fantastic music and thanks to Jayna great service as well. Plan to come back in future for another great meal.

The food is good but outrageously expensive. I don't think I will go there anymore.

Pizza was good. The sauce was good, the cheese was alright. The wood cooked dough was great. Pepperoni could of been more flavorful. Customer service was great. Indoor and outdoor tables were clean. The ambiance gives you cozy feeling. They’re in a shopping mall so parking can feel crazy at times. This pizza is worth a first time trip and maybe a second if you’re near by. Would I take a 1hr ride to try this pizza. Absolutely not. Nothing special but it is a great pizza joint. Like many customers have stated, its very EXPENSIVE. The pizza does not justify the prize. You’re paying neighborhood premium. I think you can get a better deal at New Park Pizza that is a few minutes away(strictly Pizza experience).

Everything is great and fresh but I did not like the veal and veggies, maybe its my tastes buds but I got them grilled they were to thin and not really seasoned. The bread, pizza and pasta dishes are amazing.

First time at this location. I had been to others in Brooklyn and Howard Beach years ago. I had a grandma slice which tasted good but the crust was very pale and dry which was surprising. I also sampled a regular Napolitano slice. It had a nice balanced flavor and a better crust than the grandma. Overall a good visit, but not quite as I had remembered. I think New Park nearby has a better slice, in my opinion.

Chad Jacobson

Great spot if you're in the mood for Italian dishes, but I am most drawn to their delicious pizza! Their selection is incredible! I'm a big fan of their grandma slice. Stop in and you won't be disappointed. My food came out a little cold, probably due to timing. I love hot pizza, and it was closer to warm or room temperature. It was still delicious, though.

Erika Barger

The food was yummy and the portions were HUGE! We were stuffed but still found room for dessert! The chocolate cake was rich and delicious. The apple crip got mixed reviews. More graham crackers were needed for the crust and the apples were too tender. The Calamari, perfection! The salad and the meatballs were yummy. Ask for prices when making substitutions, you will be charged on top of the upcharge for pasta with any ofvthe entrée. We asked for garlic and oil instead of marinara, $11! The bread, DELICIOUS! I wish it would have come with sauce but I saved a piece to go with my meatballs. The waiter didn't really check on us. We got one drink and our glasses sat empty until we had to call someone over to order something else. We were a party of 6 and our bill was about $450/with tip. We tipped $70.

I frequent this place, and there's a good reason for that. The food really is delicious. Overpriced? Also yes. I enjoy selecting from their little pizza assortment at the counter, which is unique to the other pizzerias in the area. The Romana stuffed slice I've been getting for over 20 years and it's still impressive. Marinara, Caprese, Zucchini slices and mini pies are all hits as well. They did away with the white clam sauce, so disappointed but I heard you an catch it on their daily specials every now and then. Julianne Vegetables and Chicken Parmigiana entrees were delicious. 1/9/25: Always a nice go to when you're seeking a quick dinner closeby. The dining room was pretty quiet when we went around 4:30. The service was up to par as usual and the food equally up to standards.

La Villa Pizzeria has a nice atmosphere and decent service, but the food left a bit to be desired. The penne vodka lacked the depth of flavor I expected from an Italian spot, and the pizza could’ve used a crispier crust. That said, it’s still a step up from places like Olive Garden, so if you’re in the area and craving Italian, it’s worth checking out—but don’t expect to be blown away.

Stopped by for a quick chicken roll, it was very good as always. They recently started charging for a small single side of marinara. La Villa is good but not cheap so we don’t come here often but to charge for a side of marinara? Come on’ do better.

Not the worst and not the best grandma skice pizza, but good. Service was just okay. The lead person or host wasn't warm but he gave us very basic hospitality. However, our waiter was wonderful. Unfortunately she was responsible for waiting on both inside and outside customers. They needed another waiter not fair to her. Then to top the dining experience, their was a couple in the men's bathroom having a discussion or doing who knows what. I will not be returning unless I had an emergency need to eat. PS. it does have a beautiful decore.

Was very disappointed to find out my Lasagna dinner was cooked in a Microwave. Was so hot the sauce was boiling and the plate was too hot to touch.. and no, it wasn't baked.

We were very unhappy with the food and service. The prices of a soft drink is $4.50 and no other restaurant charges that. They didn't have two dishes that were on the menu and that was one of the reasons why we went there. All of the four main dishes that was ordered was just okay, but the prices were $$$. We had to call the waiter a number of times for srvice and never came to us unless we called him. The finale was with the check; it was absurd. You had no flexibility with the tip and you couldn't get a receipt unless you had emailed to you.

Entrees don't even come with a side👎. Pasta was overcooked, sauce was weak 👎. Calamari was excellent 👍. OVERPRICED👎. Waiter didn't even offer cheese, with my meal. We won't be back.

First time having the food there today Saturday 9-27-25 130 Pm the Alfredo was a bit salty and not well done as requested. Ordered with Mariana for penne Alfredo well done not Al dente. And got Al dente cooked. I just thought they would throw the pasta in the skillet then pour Alfredo sauce and let it simmer or cook until it start to bubble up which would then be evenly coated pasta with sauce instead of having to stir it yourself. that’s how it came penne with a sauce over it instead of it the pasta sitting in the sauce. The onion bread is good and focaccia! I expected the food to be really good and pleasing but got disappointed with how the food really was *** if you get Alfredo Sauce PASTA MAKE SURE YOU TELL THEM NO PROSCIUTTO.

Going down hill, I have been ordering here for years. Who ever is taking orders at the counter is highly incompetent both male and female attendees. If you ask for basil, olive oil and sun dried tomato they give you marina sauce.

Expensive ceaser salad with no dressing after specifically instructed to add on. Also waiting 10 mins on just two regular slices

Never again! Been coming here for yrs. Without a doubt they got the best chicken rolls. Was coming the last 2 days but they were sold out. So today I decided to do a 30 mile bike ride there and a employee told me to take my $5000 bike outside even though it wasn't in the way of anyone. He said to chain it up outside since I was afraid of it being stolen. No one with a race bike carries a chain. Never again ill spend my money here or at any other locations, the disrespect cost more than I can afford.

The $22 wrap Was nothing like it was described on the menu had very little chicken strips. A couple of pieces of mozzarella, old, grape tomatoes and no mixed greens. Just lettuce on a big thick piece of bread. The quality of the clams had a weird taste, everything Served was sub par.. The Service lousy, the soda lines need cleaning. Gordon Ramsey needs to visit you guys. It’s a total rip off. Most things on the menu are not available.
