Gaetano's Pizza & Pasta — Restaurant in Florida

Let me start out by saying, this is the most hostile atmosphere I have experienced in a while, the lady at the reception has one of the most hostile attitudes I have ever experienced in a while, someone worthy of a Jerry Springer show. Her demeanor and they way she was attending the customers with the condescending tone, leaving others hanging with simple requests and just barely caring for the customer, is somewhat out of a parody of a bad restaurant. The food was meh, but one thing to point out that really did not sit out well with me is that one of the delivery drivers came to the place to pick up an order of his delivery, and she said with the most condescending tone “Its gonna take 40 minutes, and if you want to cancel you can do that and the next driver will pick it up” it just shows how horrible her behavior was to the point where I felt bad for the guy. My order was a mess, the timing extremely delayed, and when I pointed out her demeanor she answered with an attitude. When I asked for her name she literally said “Why are you asking?” I said well, I’d like to know if you are manager or owner, she said “Thats not your concern” when I said I would leave a review for her attitude, she taunted me saying “Go ahead and do whatever you want, I don’t care” (Is that a way to treat customers?) If you are the owner of this place let me tell you you are doing a massive disservice to your place with that person. And if she’s the owner well, that explains a lot about that place. All I can say is if you are planning to have a peaceful meal with your significant other or friends, avoid this place at all costs. This is something you’d see in an episode of “Kitchen Nightmares” if you really dig down in the place. Do yourself a favor and actually go to somewhere where they don’t kill your good...

This place was recommend by a lifelong friend who is a "foodie' and "pizza fean" FYI I am originally from NY, so have a certain appreciation for good Italian food (i.e., pizza, pasta, deserts, etc.)

I remember going to this location when it was Village Pizza and there was not much in the area except vacant lots some 20+ years ago, so I was a little surprised that the name had changed but happy that they make a good NY style pizza.

The place is a small Mom & Pop pizza joint which I LOVE! Staff was friendly and attentive. The owner spoke with us for a few minutes and we had a great conversation about how the location and neighborhood has changed in the last 20+ years.

We had a large half cheese and half sausage extra crispy pizza, six garlic rolls and tiramisu for desert. A couple of sodas and a cold beer. The Garlic rolls were perfect, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with just the right amount of garlic and olive oil. The Pizza is very good and definitely NY style... thin and crispy with real sliced Italian sausage! Tiramisu was good and one was enough to share.

We don't live far from this place, so it is now on our on list of "Pizza Friday" places. If your looking for a no-frills NY style pizza joint this...

Our family just discovered this restaurant a few weeks ago and we have been here 4 times! The pizza is perfect! The crust, the sauce, the flavor is all SO good! We used to go to Anthony’s and now we have changed “our place” to gaetanos! My 3.5 year old daughter prefers it as well! In addition to delicious food, the ownership and staff here are so kind. Each time we come in they have gone the extra mile to be cheerful and welcoming, and even playful with my shy daughter. Recently I came in with my daughter and had accidentally forgotten my wallet at home...rather than turn me away, they said I could just pay next time. How rare is that degree of kindness?! This is what a mom and pop place should feel like. We love it here and will be coming back often. Highly...
