Umberto’s Pizza & Pasta

Food as always is very good. However servers could do better such as, ask if I would like another beer rather than me having to ask the server. The server did not ask about dessert. It was close to closing, however a man came in 15 minutes before and there was another table that was at least 30 minutes before they would be ready to leave. Oh well. If you want to make more money, then do more for the customer! If you get bad tips then take a look at the service YOU provide.

So weIl heard about this place and my whole group wanted to go (11 people). We loaded up and when we arrived, they refused to break our check into individual checks. As if 11 people brought cash to a restaurant or something and who in their right mind is going to pay for 11 people. Ridiculous! You ask me, a place that takes my money… should accommodate. Never going here and I’m going to dissuade everyone from going here, including whoever reads this.

Found thia place on Unilocal last week, so glad i did, the subs are the best i have ever had, HUGE! I ordered 3 for the road to take home for the family. The pastrami sub is loaded and so juicy. The place smelt so so good. If your in winchester its a must…

About a month later and I still have dreams about Umberto’s pizza; its perfect thickness, just the right amount of sauce, my choice of toppings, seeing it come to the table straight out of the oven-​hot– it was love at first sight. Star-​crossed lovers, I was hesitant to take the first bite, everything in that moment was so beautiful. Wanting to dig my face in, but holding back, out of pure respect for the calamari I’d just had as an appetizer. Not as gorgeous as the pizza (or as satisfying). Drenched in marinara sauce, zesty with lemon, but there was an odd and unfamiliar balance– not my go to calamari. But. Umberto’s pizza. The first bite was slow but it made my mouth water for more… Crusty with the perfect tan. Surrounded by the most beautiful traditional Greek décor in the area, I fell in love.

Surprisingly delicious! I was so happy to stumble on the place. Portions were substantial and I felt like I got my money’s worth. A glass of decent wine was only 5 dollars. Service is okay, but the food comes out so quickly that you’ll forget you don’t like your server. I got the meat lasagna and side Caesar salad. Salad was not great, but lasagna was tasty, filling and cheesy. I ate half for dinner and the other half for lunch the next day. My friend ordered bolognaise, so homey and filling. I wish I could go back today!

Probably the best place for Italian food on the east side of Winchester. The pizzas are very good and the pasta dishes are well made. The veal parmigiana has always been good as it’s made with real veal and the calamari is excellent, lightly breaded and not greasy. Whether we eat inside or get takeout, the food is always good.

I was recommended this place from a friend. Had I not been, I wouldn’t have gone, the mall entrance is a little weird, but don’t let that turn you away. Once inside it feels like a nice Italian restaurant. Sitting on the «patio» is nice as well. Giant portions, reasonably priced, and very delicious. Definitely worth trying out.

Shrimp scampi, sandwiches, carbonara sauce, fried calamari, the best I ever tried. Nice environment, good Italian music.

Delicious! Best manicotti I have ever had. Huge portion gives you enough for two meals!

Used Unilocal to find Umberto’s. Really glad we came. Tasty pizza. Super waitress. 10% off if staying in a local motel. Fair price on the wine. Would recommend this to my friends. Unfortunately they all live in Colorado like me.

This place has amazing calamari! They usually have a chef’s special and that is usually the thing to get! It is amazing every time!

Absolutely wonderful food — what an absolute treat in rural VA. I ordered the spaghetti bolognaise and it was AWESOME! Hot, creamy, huge portion, and just a wonderful meal. Sauce to noodle ratio was great — good leftover sauce perfect for the bread dip. If there is one thing they could change, it would be to get better bread and serve more than one piece at dinner.
Now lets talk about service — or lack thereof. My waiter greeted me, took my order, and then disappeared. I saw my order come up in the window and then it just sat there. My waiter finally brought the order out and then I never saw him again. My drink ran dry, I wanted another piece of bread, but he was no where to be found. I finally asked another waiter to bring me my to-​go calzone order and check (it was that good that I got a calzone for lunch the next day). My waiter finally brought my bill, but what a disappointing situation. Don’t remember the waiters name, but he was a blond teenage young man who was covered in flour and looked like he was just not totally aware of his surroundings.
If I’m ever back in Winchester I’ll eat here again, but I will definitely get another waiter.

One of the best meals I’ve ever had in Winchester. The food has been upgraded and is very very high quality always was good before but now it’s even better well worth it !!! Have the spaghetti Bolognese !!

Incredible Italian food, my entire table was moaning over their plates. Huge portion sizes! Meatballs that reminded me of my Nana’s cooking. Everyone is extremely friendly. An awesome and breezy experience with great food and even greater company!

I’ve learned a few things over the years. Never order pasta at a restaurant. If you go to a pizza joint order pizza.
The store front of this joint plus the surrounding stores would of definitely turned me away in the past.
Unilocal had good reviews and I’ve heard others talking about Umberto’s as well. Once we sat down I took a moment to check out the customers, more specifically their food. I knew I was going to order a calzone. Me order a carb plate? The main reason was the dough looked thin. I was not disappointed. Thin dough and copious innards, win!
I couldn’t help myself I finished the thing. If you are in winchester give it a go. Seriously your stomach and wallet will thank you. My boys had a personal pizza and raved about it. My wife and mother in law had the paste and they too enjoyed it and I’m sure the leftovers tomorrow too.

We stopped on for dinner before pool league night on the suggestion if a friend. We were pleasantly surprised.
They do a wonderful job on the atmosphere. Pizza was excellent, veggies were aldente!
Music choice good, not too loud.

Ordered take out while we were staying at a local hotel. We both got submarine sandwiches and both sandwiches were made wrong. Although my husband specifically ordered a steak and cheese sub with nothing else on it, he got back to the hotel to be unpleasantly surprised to find it full of lettuce and tomato so it ended up in the trash. My sandwich also did not contain the toppings that I did request. All in all, a very bad experience. The best part of the meal was the bread. I definitely would never return and would not recommend this place at all.

I like this place. My friend suggested for a couple of time. I ordered meat lasagne with 99c for side garden salad. The vibe is nice and the service is really good. Our server did a great job. Highly recommend

We heard about Umberto’s from a friend and finally tried it. We really enjoyed our food — I had the Spinach, Mushroom, Broccoli Stromboli and my husband had the Four Cheese Ravioli. Service was attentive and the food was great! Two people with two drinks = $ 30. It was very quiet when we were there and eating in a strip mall isn’t all that, but we enjoyed it and were glad to find this little hole in the wall.

We ordered the meat lasagna, eggplant parmesan, onion rings and a side salad. The prices here are a little expensive for Winchester VA, but the food was really good and the portions were large. We heard stories of bad service from the female server, but we had the guy server and he was very attentive and friendly! We were thankful we did not have a bad experience with service here. Definitely check this place out!
