My family has been ordering food from this establishment for years...but tonight, I ordered grilled chicken and broccoli Alfredo with extra Alfredo. When I tell you this was the best Alfredo I have had in a very long time!!! OMG! Their pizza is great (my kids love it!), their wings are good, as well as their chicken parm subs. They are very welcoming when you go in, their prices are affordable, and their delivery is fast! If you have never experienced Cugino's Pizzeria, go get some food! OR order delivery! I'm a customer for life!! ❤️

Sadly I was so disappointed with my order. I ordered bone in mild chicken wings. The sauce itself was okay but the wings weren't. My husband and I had 2 wings each and threw the rest out. They didnt have any flavor to the chicken itself like would happen if they were cooked while still frozen (which is what it seemed like) The staff is really nice & the place is clean with a welcoming atmosphere. Update- owner called & left a voicemail...feeling horrible and wants to make it right...I wasnt able to call back before close but that in itself was enough. I went ahead and added stars as sometimes management reaching out wanting to fix is JUST ENOUGH. I know their intention wasn't to mess up my food....it happens. Thank you for the phone call 😊

Well, I went back to this pizza spot. The owner called me and said he would like me to try his food once more that he wanted to make it and let me tell you this man takes pride in what he does. The food was delicious. I put pictures here for you to see and what a great guy. The food was very good and I’m glad I gave them another chance. I also seen other people eating dinner at the table and the chicken Parm looked delicious.

I ordered 2 garbage breads/strombolis today, 1 for my office potluck and one for home. My husband and I dug right into the one we grabbed for dinner once we got it home, it was absolutely delicious and the marinara sauce for dipping is so amazing. Can’t wait to share the other one with my coworkers! The service is always great, highly recommend Cugino’s for all your hunger needs!

Stopped in here for breakfast sandwiches and subs for our road trip to the Buffalo bills game and we were not disappointed. Reasonably priced The owner Lou was super friendly . We will be back !

I had never been here before my partner brought me. This veggie stramboli is huge! I am definitely happy to eat this! And the place is very cute and has a section dedicated to military and to Casey. 🙏

I messed up my online order and they contacted me right away to fix it (and were nice about it since it was 1000% user error on my end). Pizza was hot, fresh, & delicious!

All flats fried extra crispy of course 🙃 Y’all…. These wings were sooo good. Fried perfectly, loved loved loveddddd the peanut butter sauce. I would def order food from here again 10/10

I love this restaurant. Super fast food. Some of the best pizza I've ever had. Very consistent, very delicious. The burgers are outstanding. I order mine with bacon and mushrooms, it's always perfect. Prices are great. The restaurant personnel are extremely friendly, and always aim to please. I have to eat here at least once a week, if not more, as I enjoy it so much. Thank You Cugino's for so many delicious meals. I just left, the restaurant, and I already can't wait to visit again!

Tired of slices of pizza that skimp on toppings and have lackluster flavors in the Albany area (you know the drill: 2 slices, $7/$8, with barely any pepperoni)? Look no further than Cugino's! For just $3 a slice, you get a good-sized slice of pizza overflowing with pepperoni. They don't skimp here – it's truly all the pepperoni one slice can handle! But Cugino's doesn't stop at toppings. Their sauce is tasty – perfectly balanced and bursting with flavor (and a far cry from the bland sauces plaguing other joints). Honestly, I'd settle for just a couple of pepperonis on a decent slice with good sauce and dough at other places, but they consistently fall short. Not Cugino's – they deliver on flavor, toppings, and dough quality in a way that makes the competition say, 'Mamma Mia, is that slice for real'? You bet it is, suckers! Check out the picture! What other joint in town packs this much meat on a slice of pizza?

LOVED the family-owned, hole in the wall vibe. Pizza was crisp and tasty without being burnt or overwhelming. The service was friendly and warm and the atmosphere was inviting and homey. Would definitely go there again next time I'm in the area.

Used to be the best pizza in the Capitol Region. I'm from Brooklyn so I am very picky about my pizza. Cuginos was amazing. They've recently been adding too much salt to the sauce on the pizza. I'd say try the peanut butter wings with raspberry sauce but they don't make them the same anymore. We've switched to Bella Mae.

I stopped at this Pizza spot on the way out of town. I found it on Google maps. Pizza is one of my favorite foods. The Pizza here was good. I would visit again.

5 dollar slices a pizza! Little pricey I dont think it's worth it not the worst pizza I've had but the buffalo chicken is sweet instead of hot. Pepperoni was nothing to write home about either but the place is nice and clean. Staff is very friendly, I recommend their subs if your a pizza snob such as my self 😉.(P.S The wings are phenomenal very crispy and flavorful came in to save the day from the sweet buffalo chicken)

Decent place for a quick stop. I really only recommend the wings and pizza from here, everything else is a no go. Chicken Alfredo taste worst than the jar stuff. If it was homemade, someone else needs to make it. Not much seasoning to the chicken parm or sausage parm. Sausage parm dinner was literally a sausage split in half, placed on top of pasta and sauce then covered with cheese

Pizza is great and food is always hot and order is always correct. However this chicken wing I got with my order is as big as a nugget. SMDH.

I ordered 2 slices. The cheese was not melted, they were only slightly warm, and I've tasted better. Clearly the service was terrible.

Employees and/or owners are incredibly rude. They will mark orders as ready to pick up and then argue with you that it's your fault. The attitude everyone there gives off in general is unbearable. Avoid this place as they don't care about customers, drivers or partners.

I know this is a pizza shop but you don't put sliced american cheese on quesadillas. Totally not worth the money I spent.

I ordered ricotta as an extra topping on my pizza, in the special instructions I said I would rather have cheddar if they have it. When I was getting ready to leave a guy (not the owner) came up to me and said we don't have any cheddar cheese so I had to put liquid cheese on it. I was confused and said Cheese Whiz? He said no it was from a tub of nacho cheese because that's all they have. I said that sounds disgusting and looked at it and my initial thought was confirmed. I knew there's no way I could bring that pizza home and it would be acceptable. He had to have known that too otherwise he wouldn't have tried talking to me about it. I had already paid for the order; he never offered to remake or refund the pizza that was gross. I don't understand why they didn't keep the topping as ricotta... or call me to confirm. I have extreme anxiety and am non-confrontational but it was obvious I was very upset, I'm shocked they let me leave in that condition!
