We have been grabbing "a pie" and Tortelleni Rose here for years and years. We also enjoy the grilled chicken salad (with banana peppers, cheese and a generous portion of the standards in the smaller "dinner" salad. The dinner salad is a classic Italian side salad with fine sliced radishes, red onion, olives, tomatoes and crisp lettuce. Plus a very nice balsamic vinegar Italian dressing. All the pasta dishes come with a nice side of cheesy bread (focaccia), too. For a quick lunch or light dinner, we often grab a slice of the specialty focaccia, such as mushroom and spinach -- a "white pizza" that comes with side of red sauce for dipping. Another quick snack is a side of meatballs and garlic knots -- what a great way to get something good, fast. The other go-to for us is the Tiramisu -- house made and very light and rich at the same time. From time-to-time they have our very favorite -- New York cheesecake covered in decadent chocolate ganache. Look for it, you won't be disappointed.
I want to say something about the staff -- we've never felt anything but welcome at this location. We are always greeted with a smile and depart with a wave. They are speedy and polite -- recognizing us as regulars long before we even thought of ourselves that way! It is a very busy spot but they never rush you out. It is the kind of place where you run into neighborhood friends, where you grab an ice tea, a cold beer or glass of wine and kick back under a TV for a few minutes when getting something to go. You can come in with a crowd or come in alone and still have a pleasant, quick meal. In 18 years of "stopping in" we've never had one...
Read moreI have to give it 5☆!! But here is my experience, I have never been here before but heard it was authentic Italian food and being Italian I had to see if it could really be a place in Manassas Virginia that was delicious. I called first as to let them know we were a large party and did they have tables to accommodate us. The lady who answered the phone was rude and didn't even listen to my question before she so rudely answered first come first serve, I said I completely understand but do you have a table large enough to seat our party or is it booth seating she so rudely answered I said first come first serve by then I felt I either need to speak to the manager/someone who cares about this business or I need to let it be and go somewhere else. I chose to ask to speak to the manager and Joe is who got on the phone and was so polite I explained I hve never been here and just wanted to know if this was a restaurant that could handle a party of 12. Not only did he answer my questions but he also took my order ahead so the food could be ready for when I arrived with my party that had 9 hungry teenagers!!! Joe personally took care of us and making sure I was treated with kindness. The food was delicious we ate the fried ravioli's of course pizza and a steak and cheese. Everything was perfectly made just like NY style pizza!! It was different you sat yourself order at a counter and they call your number as the food is ready almost fast food style but better. I hope the young lady who answered the phone was just having an off day and not that she speaks to everyone like that on the phone. I would absolutely go...
Read moreA Great place for pizza in the Manassas area. I was in the area visiting family and decided to try this restaurant. It is on the corner of a set of stores off the southeast side of Centerville road. There is plenty of parking directly in front of the store. It seems a very popular spot as they were very busy at the time that I went with a lot of their business from carry-out. The store has a counter that wraps around and allows all to see into the kitchen. You are greeted with the aroma of freshly baked pizza as soon as you enter. The interior is white tile floor with ½ the space dedicated to the kitchen and the other ½ to the dining area. There are about 15 4-person black wood tables and a few booths. If you can’t tell from the name, the menu features a variety of traditional and specialty pizzas made with fresh ingredients and a homemade sauce and other Italian fare like hearty pasta dishes, calzones, and fresh salads. I ordered ahead and the food was ready when we arrived. The staff was friendly, busy and efficient. The prices were reasonable for our current economy. I ordered a pepperoni pizza and it was excellent. Overall, whether you're grabbing a quick slice for lunch or enjoying a family dinner, Tony's Pizza offers a taste of Italy in the heart of Manassas, making it a must-visit for locals and...
