Neighborhood Pizza — Restaurant in Homosassa Springs

Recommended. 7.3/10 for the pizza, however I'm still giving 5/5 stars overall for the restaurant. I ordered half cheese | half pepperoni, ham, meatball, sausage, bacon, ricotta.

Crust: 24 hour fermentation, slightly undercooked on mine and mild flavor. 6.5/10. I will ask to cook a little longer next time as the pizza ordered by another patron looked perfectly cooked.

Sauce: Perfect balance, very tasty that was fresh and vibrant with sweetness without being overpowering. The sauce is the star here. My diet rule is I eat 2 slices and the sauce here made me have 3. 10/10

Cheese + toppings: Quality ingredients. Cheese was not greasy, nor were any toppings. You can tell the bacon was very freshly cooked. Meatballs, ham, and ricotta were also very good. The ham was thicker which I enjoyed. I also really enjoyed the sliced meatball which I'm usually very picky on. Pepperoni was mild and I was not in love with the thinly sliced sausage as I felt it was overly mild. Personal preference here as I normally like bold and flavorful sausage. I also felt toppings were a bit sparse across each slice but understand you need to carefully balance to not overload a pizza. Plenty of ricotta however. 6.5/10.

Size/Value: Large is a 16" (most chains call a 14" large and 16" XL). Well worth $16.99 for a cheese pizza and then $1 for each topping, which is the cheapest topping price I've seen in 30 years on a large pizza. Incredible pricing. (Bonus +.1)

Very clean restaurant, including the bathroom. Service was very very good.

Foam cups and paper plates. While I'm not going to penalty for the cups, I am going to penalty for the plates as this isn't a sufficient solution for pizza when dining in as the plates are susceptible to tearing (like mine did) if you eat pizza with a knife and fork like I do. I understand logistical benefits of paper plates but would like to see perhaps a different disposable option with more strength for silverware use. (Penalty -.1)

The service really stood out here, despite younger girls running the show. Morgan was our server and we really appreciated her friendly service. Myla and Chloe were also very friendly. (Bonus +.1)

Owners Ted and Kim are actively engaged and very sweet people. While the location is a little out of the way for some, it makes perfect sense for them as it's around the corner from home, including staff. I didn't mind the location. Local community members (Ted is a local Rotarian) who offer 10% veteran / police / fire discounts. I appreciated that they spoke well of other pizza restaurants, supporting the community. Ted mentioned while other places may do things differently, that there is room for everyone as they all have their niche. I really enjoyed talking with them. Very customer focused. Kim is from NJ (one of the pizza capitals) who pushed Ted to start this pizza venture. While he's been in the food industry, this is his first pizza business ownership. They use the industry standard Bakers Pride (quality) ovens. You may have had his food before as he does the cooking for the famous "Beast Feast". Looking forward to going back and trying their...

We decided to give Neighborhood Pizza a try after a trip to the bank on Saturday, and it turned out to be the “little pizza shop of horrors.” The food itself was bland and completely forgettable, but the real problem was the service.

Our server, Morgan, not only provided lackluster service, never washed her hands, kept touching her hair and her face, but also kept our change. Our bill for a party of three came to less than the amount we paid. We handed her two $20 bills and a $10 bill (a total of $50), expecting $8.50 back. After disappearing for a while and spending time chatting with a young, brown-haired boy at another table, she eventually returned after 12 minutes and claimed we had given her exact change.

This was absolutely not the case – we had just withdrawn the cash from the bank. Whether this was a mistake or something else, it was extremely unprofessional and left us feeling cheated. We will never be coming back, and I strongly suggest others avoid this place unless they want bland food and...

This is my second visit, I first had the Italian sausage sandwich, great quality, and the amount was spot on. Then I've had one of their pizzas and it was incredible, the sauce has taste. Cooked to perfection. This is my new Italian place.. Kim is the owner along with her husband. She is a fantastic person. I believe this is a family-owned business, and even the young ones are kind and respectful which is a rarity. Check them out you will not be disappointed. Also the prices are...
