Went for the first time for lunch @ 11:15, the waiter ( owners son) sat us immediately and brought us this warm Italian bread with the best olive o I’ve ever had . Ordered escarole & white bean soup, asst. seafood appetizer . DELICIOUS . We also ordered 2 lunch specials, seafood & chicken with Papadella pasta . The food was fresh, fresh fresh and delicious, our waiter was so accommodating. Since it was soooooo early we’re the only 2 in the place.the $$$ was unbelievable inexpensive. Will definitely be back!!!

The food is as good as it gets, but be prepared to wait. We stopped coming here because of the slow service, and unfortunately, nothing has changed. The servers are doing their best, but they are severely understaffed. It took forever to get drinks and dinner. Go for the taste, but only if you have a few hours to spare.

Food is excellent, great pizza. The owner, Vinnie, is a wonderful guy. Everytime I see him, I tell him that my father (Vinny) installed the flooring in his restaurant, and he lights up, always saying what a great job he did. Keep up the good work!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Malcolm Bush · Nov 2022

I love the crust and the pizza structure The clam pizza is really good but too much cheese too little clam otherwise delicious the sausage and pepper pizza awesome all the ratios on Point. The Fried calamari though Always feels like it needs to be a little bit more fried(no crunch not crispy enough )Always feels like it needs to be a little bit more fried And there’s no tentacles. I love the tentacles!!! otherwise the girl behind the counter absolute sweetheart great head of house. I enjoy going there my third favorite pizza place

★★★★★ 5.0 Steven Tobey · Oct 2025

Great food, awesome service, diligent and friendly staff. We first heard about LoMonaco's through a neighbor and he told us that it was the next place we needed to try when I was eating out; needless to say - his recommendation didn't let us down.
