Tony Sacco’s Coal Oven Pizza

E went to dinner here for the first time tonight off a Groupon they were offering. A few points that might be of interest. Tables were not set so we had no silverware, no toilet paper or towels in the bathroom. The pizza was ok, not cooked well, still underdone in the middle. When we asked for utensils, waitress said she was busy. Not the best experience nor was it worth going back compared to some other great pizza places in the area. I hope your experience is better than ours.

I’ve never seen anything like this! I thought there was going to be a fist fight between the cooks and the manager! The worst restaurant of all time! DONT COME HERE!!! TERRIBLE!!!

The pizza is excellent and the wings are delicious… We’ve been there a couple of time and have yet to be disappointed.

Fabulous pizza. I’ve tried the Marco Polo, the Bianco, and the Greek, haven’t been disappointed yet. Happy hour 3 – 6 and since good lunch specials. Try the Garlic Parmesan Rotolis. Been here several times and the service is always really good and friendly.

Nothing but great things about this place!!! Beer is always ice cold and service is extremely friendly and pizza is amazing. We get large pepperoni, green olives and jalapenos, omg so good. I’ll definitely continue returning here.
Thanks fellas

Our FAVORITE, pizza place hands down in Ft. Myers. Great Pizza, Great service. We go a few times a month and are never disappointed. The Capo is the best.

The new owner Tim has really changed things for the better… New and improved attitudes and great service from all of the staff, new paint, and the food was fresh and fantastic!

Over the top good! Been meaning to try this place for sometime. Everything is fresh. Their homemade sausage was so good we reordered a second appetizer. Will definitely go back — soon.

So glad there are new owners! This restaurant is now clean and the food has never tasted better! I would highly recommend any item on the menu!!!

The place was empty on a Sunday afternoon. was looking to find pizza restaurant before heading back to Miami .the server was good. the menu is limited. i ordered the pizza with pepperoni and sausage. I can’t remember the name sorry. i also ordered the garlic rolls. service was fast with no wait. the rolls were ok nothing to write home
was ok lacked toppings it had no olives the other ingredients were limited .the crust was
was missing flavor .not much cheese either. price weren’t bad.

Intrigued by the «coal fired brick oven» we came in from driving by. It is a nice neighborhood place with friendly staff above average pizza (A+ on the crust to me-​wife thought it was too blackened for her) at moderate prices. Lots of bigscreens showing all the games. Went away happy!

Went there with friends last evening. With out a doubt the worst pizza my wife and I have ever had, and I’ll eat anything. Ordered the Veggie Pizza well done. Had no taste. Blah. Veggies were most probably canned. Center was wet and soggy even though we specified «Well Done». Actually left half of a pie. I have never done that before in my life. Never again. If you want great coal fired pizza, go to Dante’s on Pine Island Rd in the Cape. It’s not even worth the 1 star.

Great pizza. My family and I had a nice time and will be back. Especially enjoyed the fresh toppings. I know there are a lot of pizza places around. But, the unique cooking style of this pizza definitely makes it worth checking out.

Five of us came here since we were done with all of the holiday party food and were looking for a pizza. The place had a few patrons in it when we arrived but they gradually emptied out and by the time we finished our dinner, we were the last to leave. The time was about 8:00pm.
We sat at a hight-​top near the pizza oven and we chatted up the chef while he was making the pies. We enjoyed the conversation and we think the chef did as well. All of the food is made right out in the open and you see everything.
Cold beer.
Great pizza (we modified one of them from the menu and that was not a problem).
Salad was fresh crisp and cool.
Wish the place was busier but it was right after new years and maybe that had an influence.

Normally I love Tony’s. I take all of my out of town guests there because the pizza is so wonderful. However, I have been disappointed since it came under new ownership. When I went today, I discovered that the half price pizza on Thursdays has been discontinued and the garlic knots have significantly diminished in size for the past three visits. There were four tables of people when I was there, two tables sent their pizza back because it was undercooked and we thought about sending our pizza and a calzone back because the calzone was cold in the middle and the pizza was somewhat undercooked. Our server seemed very scattered and struggled to manage the four tables that were seated. She was frequently apologizing to the groups at each table for a variety of things and forgetting to bring items to the table. even though it was a Sunday evening, and there was more than one football game scheduled to be playing, all eight televisions were playing the same game. There wasn’t even another option like there usually is (normally the food network is on one TV) They even took away the after dinner mints that are normally by the door. It was very frustrating to deal with, because all I do is sing the praises of Tony Saccos, but this time I was let down. I think it might be time to find a different pizza place.

Excellent pizza!!! Hard to find great pizza in the southwest but this is it!!! Happy hour had ½ price appetizers so we tried the hummus with roasted peppers. Outstanding and freshly made today. Pizza was thin crust and delicious. Everything made right on premises. Service was excellent! Will definitely be back. Thank you.

Service was good. Pizza was good (could have been a little hotter), garlic knots were also good.
Place was packed on a Thursday night with families because it was ½ off pizza day. We sat at their tiny bar in the back. We still enjoy our dinner and experience.

We ate here last night. We eat here a lot. It’s good. The owner is really friendly, so is the rest of the staff. Last night we had our dogs along. We sat outside. We were given a pitcher of water for them, and treats. Pizza was half price (Thursday night). Pizza and beer. Great Thursday night.

My wife, her parents, and I visited this location on Sunday, October 20, 2013 at around 5:00 PM. We were most unimpressed with the management, and I created a Unilocal account just to share our crappy experience. From the moment we walked in, we were assaulted by incredibly loud TV speakers. They were literally blaring at a volume that prohibited conversation. We asked our very pleasant and sympathetic server, Mark, if the volume could be reduced. He acted like it was totally reasonable and even said that it was so loud it was bothering him as well.
Come 5 – 10 minutes later, we had not noticed a change. We asked Mark again if anything could be done about the volume. He said that there was a nearly deaf customer, but that he would speak to the management again on our behalf. Shortly thereafter, the manager, Josh, came to speak with us. Josh was rude and utterly dismissive, saying that he could not turn the volume down to a reasonable level, as there are hard of hearing customers who come every week. Clearly, he values their business more than ours. Again, we asked if there was anything that he could do, including just turning the volume a few notches down in order to take the edge off. He repeated that he would not do anything at all about the extremely loud volume. My father in law proceeded to inform him that he just lost 4 costumers. Josh did not seem to mind or care.
I am sympathetic to those who are hard of hearing. I can imagine how it must be frustrating. However, a restaurant is a public place, and the management should be interested in keeping customers happy, resolving issues, and in this case suggesting some sort of compromise. For example, he could insist that the hard of hearing customers sit near the speakers in the bar so that the volume does not need to be so loud for the rest of the customers. He could have offered to move us to a quieter location (though, I am not sure there was one at the time), or he could have offered something like a free appetizer or dessert in order to apologize for the volume being so loud.
My favorite part of this was when the commercial for Viagra came on the TV. Next to our table, three elementary aged children were seated, and they got to hear all about erectile dysfunction and asking one’s doctor if one is healthy enough for sex at an unmistakable volume… This location has a manager who does not care about the majority of his customers. Save yourself the trouble, and go elsewhere. If you really want Tony Sacco’s Pizza, go to the location in Gulf Coast Towncenter. This one stinks.
On the bright side, the food is ok, and Mark was a very good server who was interested in keeping us happy.

My wife and I took my parents out for pizza last week because… well… I like them… and my mom will pose for pictures like this
Tony Sacco’s is an easy place to hang out in. The walls are lined with hand screened poster for concerts ranging from the Eagles to Neko Case to Snoop Dogg. This particular night beer was only six bucks a pitcher. Between the price of beer and all the rock art on the walls I knew we picked a winner.
A 16 inch pizza with caramelized onions, ricotta cheese and bacon was ordered. The outer crust of the pizza was crisp and every ingredient tasted fresh. Nothing looked pre-​made our poured out of can. Another big plus. The only criticisms I had were that the center of the pizza wasn’t as crisp as the crust and the bacon was kinda light.
Certainly nothing that would discourage me from coming back. The pizza was great and it was good place to socialize.
