Palumbo Pizza

I don’t know how this has 4 stars. Greasy, soggy droopy pizza! Yuck! We got it fresh and it sagged and dripped oil and had bad flavor. Worst in Allentown.

Waited 2 hours for delivery when it came it was dripping wet and squashed flat. Don’t bother.

Mike and crew are great. Have been eating at Palumbos for years. Their cooking is so good we had them cater our wedding last year. Give them a try you will find yourself coming back often.

Wonderful people, good food. The grandma pie is probably their best. A Sicilian pizza using a homemade sauce infused with basil. So flavorful.

Order the grandma’s pie

Mike knows how to make the very best Grandma Pizza pie in the area. The place is a locals secret. If you can’t find a great slice of pizza anywhere else then you need to try Palumbos. Great sandwiches hot and cold.
I drive 5 miles for Palumbos cause I can’t match it anywhere else.

Palumbo’s is really a great place. I’m in this area often and sometimes stop by for lunch. I’ve never had a bad meal from them. Their steaks and pizza are delicious. I believe the owner is usually behind the counter so things seem to run smoothly. Orders are ready in a reasonable amount of time and prices are fair. I’d recommend giving them a try!

Palumbo is now our local pizza and steak joint.
I moved back east from Oklahoma to a place on S Johnson St, I’m from Philly originally, and I really wanted a good cheesesteak. Palumbo does deliver that (though if you are aren’t careful in ordering they put sauce on it! where are we, Pittsburgh?)
The pizza is decent as well. good crust, the sauce isn’t too sweet, and they don’t spare the cheese.
I have never had a problem with delivery, though I must admit, I live a short distance away.
I would trust the food here for delivery or take out.

Not bad for a local pizza joint and nothing special. Their lunch specials are pretty reasonable and there is always plenty of parking.

Went there for lunch and thought the pizza was good. Coming from New York, I love pizza so I was satisfied.

Good local pizza shop with friendly service.

We were in Allentown last weekend for a softball tournament (really Steve? YOU and your daughter at a softball tournament??) and we had a long break between our second and third games… enough time to run out for some dinner.
We didn’t want to go too far and this nice little strip mall near the park seemed like a perfect stop… especially when we saw there was a pizza place and that’s what was calling the girls’ names. So we stop in at Palumbo’s and my concern starts when I walk in the door and I see that they have very few pies up for slices. Ok, we’ll live, and we’ll just order a pie…
Ordered a half mushroom and sausage — half plain pie. Hit the bathroom and then had more concerns… the restrooms at the softball field were cleaner I think… it wasn’t filthy, but it certainly didn’t make me enthusiastic about the cleanliness of the rest of the joint (not saying the place was dirty… just the bathroom). Anyway, the one pie and five drinks cost us $ 25. The pie arrived after about 20 minutes and I could tell right away that it wasn’t cooked right. Yes, yes, yes, the pizza snob arrived, but I was right. I grabbed my first slice and the center of the pie was a bit underdone-​it was cooked, it wasn’t soggy, but it was just undercooked and not a crispy crust. The flavor of the pizza wasn’t bad, decent sausage, great mushrooms. Crust was a little bland, and the cheese was tasty, but also a little underdone in spots. Almost like the oven wasn’t heating evenly.
I’d probably give the place three stars, but the undercooked pie (solid three stars on the taste), the less than clean restroom, the tiny booths and the fact that we had to bus our own table when there were three guys behind the counter and two weren’t doing anything all add up to a two star meal. I’m sure I’ll be back in this area for another softball tournament at some point… maybe I’ll stop in and give them another shot.

Great local Italian pizza shop. Never disappointed when I come here. Always take advantage of the lunch sub specials, great deal for good food.
Nice friendly staff, and free refills on soda!!!

pizza isn’t bad, but last time was there awhile back, they got alot of oders wrong with many costomers. i might be back sometime, but so many other pizza shop around

This is our «local» pizzeria for carryout. Very nice specialty pizzas, especially the taco and cheesesteak pizzas. Sandwiches large and reasonable. Really good stromboli and knots. Often have coupons, stop by for a menu first. Nice sauce, wish the pizza dough had a little more salt. Seems to be a nice family operation, which we appreciate.
