Gennaro’s Pizza

Ordered through Unilocal,restaurant never answered the phone. Attempts to call back never worked.

Delicious pizza! The food arrived about 10 minutes earlier then the quoted time. The pepperoni pizza was piping hot! Pepperoni, cheese, crust — all good, no complaints

Gennaro’s is a great place for late night food.
We came here after a few bars on a Friday night. The pizza was freshly made, low cost and delicious.
There is plenty of seating inside and the late night was incredibly nice to us.

That’s some good pie. If it’s fried, greasy, or generally unhealthy, buy it from Gennaro’s — I have tried their pizzas, hoagies, chicken fingers, and french fries, all of which will leave you satisfied. The only dish they don’t excel at is their salads: pretty bland.
If you want pizza delivered on time or take-​out sandwiches with hearty servings of fries, though, this is your place to go.

Ordered from seamless and the restaurant had trouble finding my order. Not sure who was at fault there however.
In any case, my cheesesteak was horrible: dry with cheap cheese and devoid of flavor. My garlic bread was also weak sauce: doughy with cheap margarine.

Gennaro’s is the go-​to, Friday night, I don’t want to cook, and am too lazy to go to a nice sit-​down restaurant pizza joint for my wife and I. We probably order from here at least once per month and have done both carry out and delivery (always get delivery; the guy they use is super nice and just really seems to be having a good time slinging pizzas).
When it comes to the pizzas, always go for the Gennaro’s special. It has everything you could want on it, so long as your not one of those fancy «I like buffalo chicken pizza» people. The sauce is fantastic, but the star is the crust. I’m not a fan of thin or thick crust, so the medium they use at Gennaro’s is perfect (crunchy on the outside, doughy on the inside of the edges).
When it comes to other items on the menu, I wasn’t a big fan of the fries when I’ve gotten them in the past, and my wife certainly doesn’t care for the salads too much. If you’re going to go there, make sure you stick to what made them famous in the first place.

Great pizza, and thats coming from a new yorker! Go for their specialty slices, but they dont have anything too crazy.
Their chicken fingers and honey mustard platter is also amazing!

i swear ive written a review for this place, but i guess i was wrong!
Gennaro’s is a neighborhood favorite. I have had everything here no joke haha
— their deluxe cheeseburgers (comes with fries)
— chicken caesar salad (HUGE QUANTITY)
–gyros (both lamb and chicken)
— Stromboli (pepperoni option is super oily omgggg– veggie option — delish! and their buffalo chicken– filled to the top!)
— Margherita pizza (not worth it) and their buffalo chicken pizza (oily but filling)
— their chocolate cake (WHICH IS AMAZING)
All their food is great except the cheese fries/​mega fries/​whatever type of combo fries you buy — the fries come out soggy and they just don’t hit the spot. Other than that I really cant complain about the food! Great fast service.
Only time i hit a snag was when i had purchased a
voucher and when i tried to use it they said ‘they dont take them anymore…’ which is weird since those never expire. BUT thats ok. i still love their food and when i need something to eat but don’t feel like going far I always choose them =)

Distinctly average pizza, but cheap and convenient for the locals. White pizza trumps the regular red sauce. Caveat, I am a former New Yorker so maybe my standards are too high ;)

Good enough food but we ordered salads because it is their Sunday special and realized they over charged us when they delivered the food. When we called to ask about the mistake, we were told they don’t give the discount unless you ask about it. I have zero respect for a business that tries to charge more to a customer that they think is ignorant of their advertised deal. We will not be eating here again.

I mean, for a pizza/​wings/​bad-​for-​your-​heart kind of food place, you can’t beat this! This is my husband and I’s go-​to pizza joint for Friday nights. We always order out– eating there is not recommended.

My fiancé and I absolutely love Gennaro’s! Whether you want pizza, a salad or a sandwich made belly filler style, they definitely have something for everyone. The salads are good and come with bread. The belly fillers are huge! We recently tried their pizza and were very happy with it. Pizza can sometimes be really salty and you feel like you have to keep drinking water from all the salt, but not this pizza! Will definitely keep going back!

Great pizza and wings. Good price. It’s worth the extra walk to go here. Probably the best pizza in the neighborhood.

Every time the boyfriend and I decide to order Gennaro’s there’s a little voice in my head going «alright alright alright» a la Matthew McConaughey. That’s because Gennaro’s is now my go-​to for pizza. The crust isn’t for everyone– it’s not thin and crispy like an ordinary pizza pie (it’s smooth and a little thicker than standard), but it has definitely grown on me. The cheese/​sauce is decent and the pizza is usually hot on arrival. Prices are good and if you order through GrubHub there is an excellent deal for two large pizzas (only $ 13.99). Delivery has never been a problem. I appreciate that they are solid, reliable, and drama-​free and will continue to (happily) order from here.

I have to say, the pizza from here reminded me of a combo between dominos and chuck-​e-​cheese. That being said, if you’re looking for a quick, cheap, bite and don’t mind the quality of the pizza you’re getting– this is the place for you. However, if you’re looking for some quality, thin crust slices with a nice ratio of cheese to sauce, try somewhere else. The pepperoni pizza made my boyfriend sick for the rest of the night.

I ordered a turkey hoagie from here for dinner last night. The service was quick, and everything was reasonably priced. There were tons of menu options– exactly what you’d expect from a pizza place. I’ll definitely order again.

Ever had pizza from a buffet, like in a hospital cafeteria? That’s what this pizza tasted like. Except maybe more greasy. I wouldn’t be surprised if they get their ingredients from Sysco.
The dough was soft and thick, the crust tasteless — as if it were defrosted, microwaved, then placed in the oven for a few minutes. (They didn’t skimp on cheese, but that was no saving grace.)
One star for cheap price/​ease of ordering online/​speedy delivery.
One star for not making me sick. (Perhaps this is too generous.)
Overall, I’d recommend this pizza only to the intoxicated.

From NY and found this gem visiting philly. Awesome food and people. Highly recommend.

Good pizza, not a margarita! I was really craving the fresh mozzarella, tomato and basil, but got an extra cheese pizza with sporadic slices of tomato. It would have satisfied a stoner but not my sophisticated palate!

I think this was the first time in my pizza-​gobbling life that I’ve ever had pizza delivered to my house that was actually STEAMING when I opened the box.
Like actual steam was coming off the top of the pizza – as if they took it out of a hot glorious oven and drove it right to my house.
Incredible.
I ordered the Cheese-​steak and a large pizza via
. Oh yeah, also the delivery man was polite enough to ignore my barking, crazed, 13-​pound, deliveryman-​hating dog who was attempting to squeeze through the door to bite him.

1 Pizza Romana Pizza $ 12.70
Subtotal $ 12.70
Tax $ 1.14
Delivery Fee $ 1.50
TOTAL $ 15.34
Great pizza, fast delivery. Crust was excellent. Overall it was a great experience. I will be ordering from here soon. The Romana pizza had fresh tomatoes, sliced onions, sweet basil, and extra cheese. My only complaint is that there wasn’t that much basil on it. Don’t expect your pizza to be covered in whole leaves. It was just torn up pieces about the size of a die and very sparsely scattered. It didn’t detract too much from the experience, but with basil being in my top 3 herbs… I have to give it 4 stars. Also, I only give 5 stars out to places I’ve ordered from many many times, so that I can also comment on the consistency and try a variety of menu items. But I will be ordering again Gennaro’s!

We ordered a ham sandwich, a Greek salad with chicken and chicken fingers for delivery. Prices are very good and delivery was pretty quick. Portion size was great. The Greek salad doesn’t come with chicken but they added it for me. The salad was very large. I didn’t try the ham sandwich but my boyfriend described it as awesome. I loved the quantity of feta cheese in my salad.
The only disappointment was that both the chicken in my salad and in the chicken fingers were very dry and tasted slightly over cooked. I plan to order here again and hope the chicken is softer the next time. The chicken really had me torn between giving this place a 3 or 4 stars.

I was in Philly for work and staying at Sofitel Hotel, but I didn’t want to eat the expensive food in the area. I went on Grubhub and ordered from here. I got a scallop platter for about $ 7 which is dirt cheap, and I got a small veggie stromboli for another $ 8. The stromboli was ginormous for a small! Everything also tasted very good. The scallop wan’t overcooked, the cheese fries were deeelish, and the stromboli was nice and cheesy. I love Philly because of places like this. Good wholesome junk food at a good price.
