Farinella’s is the best. We called the Rochester store to order 8 metre-long pizzas and tons of gelato for an engagement party, and Farinella’s did not disappoint. They were on time, and the pizza options were varied, tasty, and creative. The gelatos were heavenly too! We’ll be back!

Excellent quality pizza and ingredients - very tasty and the meter pizza is huge! Id skip the garlic dip.

Very impressed with this restaurant! We are visiting Ottawa and wanted to eat real Italian pizza. The pizza was simply the best! We were there for lunch and we bought pizza by slice and had gelato for dessert. Miam! Their gelato is sooooo delicious! Definitely recommend this place, you will not be disappointed!

We had a Pizza Margaritha (half a meter) for 20 $ + tax. Pizza crust was very thin and the pizza tasted okay/good but it was not extraordinary, only the form of the pizza was special.Gelato pistaccio (2 scoops for 6 $) was okay too, really nothing special compared to gelato from Italy. I cannot agree with all the good reviews.Eating at the restaurant was only possible outside; sitting options were also possible on plastic chairs outside (in front of the parking area). Limited parking in front of the restaurant is possible for about 4 cars. Parking in public is possible too (you have to pay) but you have to be aware to stand at a place where parking is allowed.

Lovely little hidden gem! The staff is very friendly and pleasant. The pizza is delicious; gelato tastes like in Italy, which is exceptional!! Well priced. Clean, homey, eclectic decor. Casual seating in and outdoor. Can't wait to go back!

Fast and friendly service! Had their pepperoni half meter pizza with arugula added on top (generous amount) = ~$30! Delicious and reheats very well the next day! Will have to try their other pizza flavours

Fantastic Frank Pinello pizza, speedy prep time (<15min), and quality gelato. Seated outside in an industrial area, its a fun experience to enjoy high quality pizza.

This place is my kryptonite. Not only is it ten minutes away but it’s the best pizza and gelato place I’ve ever been to in town. I don’t even like pizza that much but nothing beats that melt in your mouth cheese and the perfectly seasoned tomato sauce. Not to mention the best, most authentic pistachio gelato. It doesn’t taste artificial and is so so flavourful. If you haven’t had the pizza or gelato here yet, you’re missing out. And the service is absolutely friendly. I would honestly work here for fun because the staff are so friendly and fun.

amazing food quality ingredients! prices reasonable!

Great ice cream, dark chocolate was amazing! Their wall of pizza looked fabulous - that's what I want to try next!Only complaint: I normally order a kid size of ice cream, but I was denied "because I am not a kid". I am paying for it, I specifically want less ice cream (quantity and price), don't get what the problem?This did deter me from coming back again or at least think twice before choosing this place again for ice cream
