Vittoria Pizza — Restaurant in Alhambra

Vittoria Pizza Ristorante Italiano in Alhambra offers an experience that's best described as average, but it does have a distinct quality that keeps drawing me back: the pizza. It's the kind of place I visit once in a blue moon, primarily because of the exceptional pizza that's a family favorite.

What makes Vittoria Pizza stand out is undoubtedly their pizza. It's evident that they take pride in crafting their pies. The crust has that perfect balance of crispiness and chewiness, and their selection of toppings and sauces provides a satisfying medley of flavors. My wife, in particular, has a soft spot for their pizza, and it has become a tradition for us to order it whenever we're in town visiting her parents. It's a comforting, familiar indulgence.

The restaurant itself is a straightforward, no-frills Italian eatery. While it may not offer the most elaborate or upscale ambiance, it's family-friendly and kid-friendly. It's the type of place where you can bring the whole family and know that everyone will find something they like on the menu. In that regard, it serves its purpose well.

However, where Vittoria Pizza Ristorante Italiano falls short is in its overall dining experience. The menu, aside from the pizza, can be somewhat unremarkable. The service, while polite, could use a bit more attentiveness, and the atmosphere lacks a unique charm that would set it apart from other Italian restaurants. It's a place you visit more for the food than for the ambiance.

In summary, Vittoria Pizza Ristorante Italiano is a casual dining spot that leans towards the average spectrum, with the standout feature being their delightful pizza. It's a great option for a family meal and a satisfying choice if you're in the mood for a familiar pizza experience. While it may not be a culinary destination, it certainly has its appeal, and it continues to be a go-to place when we visit my wife's parents...

This is the worst dinning experience in my life. If I could I would give this place 0 stars I would. After coming here for over 20 yrs I did not expect to be treated so ignorant by the owner himself. I ordered pepperoni pizza and pasta. The pasta was ok, edible but the pizza was HORRIBLE! Ever since I picked it up it was so soggy and falling apart almost. I took the first bite and I knew something was not right. I continued to take a second bite only to confirm that something was very wrong. It was a bad spoiled, rancid taste. My son who also had taken a slice agreed that something was not ok with the pizza. I called our waiter who relayed this information to the owner. I asked that the pizza be removed from my bill as I didn’t think it was fair for me to pay something that terrible and even possibly dangerous to ingest. The owner refused to remove it from my bill or do anything to make the situation better. I then told him well if I have to pay for this I would ask that the pizza be made right, something that doesn’t taste spoiled or rancid. The owner, then said if he did that he would have to charge me for a second pizza. I proceeded to explain to him and even offered him a slice of the pizza so he could confirm what I was saying. He refused of course, and insisted that I had to pay for it. I’ve never received such horrible service and food. The food was nothing extraordinary but decent before and I know what their pizza normally tasted like. Being that he’s a petty person and obviously needs the money more I went ahead and paid my bill and left but will never return. The owner is an ignorant, arrogant person that doesn’t have any customer service skills nor work ethic. You’ve been warned. If there’s ever anything wrong with your food don’t expect the...

I had a hankering for linguine and clam sauce and I've been driving past this place for over a decade so I thought I'd give it a shot. The host was cool and even though I was alone said it was cool to sit in a booth. The place was about half full with one big party and a couple of couples. Other than a baby crying it was pretty quiet in there. I looked at the menu and looked at the linguine and clam sauce for 25 bucks, and got idea that I should get a pizza for tomorrow; two toppings around 20 bucks without tax for a small eight slice pizza. Probably more than I was thinking to spend but what the heck I was there. And then it happened. Or then it didn't happen. Three different service staff, who I assume were waiters because that's what they were doing at the other tables, walked right by me, looked dead at me, then looked away without further acknowledgement. One did it once and two did it twice. I was looking right at them with my menu closed but they never even got close to me. I began to feel like they were avoiding me -- it was really weird. And then I noticed how quiet it was inside. I started think, maybe they're all being held hostage? But people did leave, unmolested, and after about 15 minutes I did too. I mean i'm glad I did, ultimately, because 60 bucks without taxes a lot to spend and it will buy a lot of groceries. Also if their service is so desultory I can't imagine the food is all that...
