Vulcano 081

This charming Italian restaurant in Rockville Center has amazing wood fired pizzas, delicious salads, and a dessert that has my hot year old smile from ear to ear. Adrian our waiter went out of his way to make my son super happy with his dessert. He even got extra sprinkles for his chocolate gelato!!! I’ll definitely be back. The three course price fixed menu is great.

Had a pizza making party at Volcano 081 for our Daisy Girl Scouts and it was so much fun. They made it so special providing aprons and hats for the kids. The pizza was actually really really good despite the hands of a 6-9 year olds making it. Lisa and Nick did a fabulous job making it such a fun event!

This place is really the best! From food to service! I had my parties here twice (rehearsal dinner and daughter’s christening) and they never disappoint! They are great and flexible in hosting parties and will do whatever you ask them to! The pizzas and pastas are amazing!! We highly recommend this place!

I love Vulcano 081. The immediate obvious reason is for its amazing pizzas. If you want an authentic pizza that rivals that of the greatest pizza makers in NYC, this spot is it. Their pizzas have bold daring tastes (to this Long Island girl at least) that are unrivaled thus far. The drinks are amazing. My favorite, the Black Raspberry Lychee martini, is almost always unavailable now because it's the best. The ambiance is very nice, dim lighting gives an Italian cobble street aura which is the photo on their back wall. The center of the restaurant gives itself to a large Gold mosaic brick oven. It's really great to watch, see and smell your food being prepared. (Walking past it feels great during these random seasons #climatechange) However, the true gem of this restaurant is its staff

The service was excellent and attentive. Dim atmosphere and light music with tasteful decor. The pizza crust was cooked perfectly, and the toppings were average for the area. The pizza is comparative to the better establishments in town. The octopus was excellent and was a real treat. It's not something you see on a menu regularly, so I got it. Definitely give it a try. It was not chewy, and the hummus was an excellent paring. I liked this place and would recommend and return.
