My brother and I stopped here for lunch today. First off, the owners are your hosts. Everything is made by Sal, who is from Naples, Italy and cooks/bakes authentic Italian food. His lovely wife greets you and serves your meal, makes you feel welcome and engages with you (if you are a talker, like me!). We had a pizza and it was amazing, even requesting extra pepperoni and a “crisp” crust was done with a smile. Several folks were in the eatery and enjoying their lunches, so I was able to view different items. A couple were eating sandwiches which were abundant with fixings, another couple ordered spaghetti and meatballs (Sal makes the meatballs, too), a pizza and garlic knots, and everyone was saying what a great place this was and that the food was incredible, I totally agree. I’m sorry I don’t have any photos to share, but do yourself a favor and check this lovely quaint eatery out, you will be glad you did! Thank ya’ll for a wonderful lunch, we will be back!
Came across this little place looking online for q good local pizza place. And I was not disappointed. Staff was super nice and friendly. Pizza smelled and looked delicious.sauce tasted homemade crust was perfect not the typical "cardboard" consistency like most places tasted as close to NY Pizza as I've came across so far even my 4yos gave it a thumbs up will go again ?
We moved to Punta Gorda from Illinois. Santa Lucia Pizzeria was our first experience with local restaurant near our new home and we were not disappointed! Now it is our special treat to ourselves when we are celebrating or when family comes to visit and everyone shares our opinion that the food is always hot and wonderful!!
great people ,amazing food, 5 star!!!
This place has one of the best pizza’s I have ever eaten and the owners are so friendly. It’s a REAL Italian chef making those delicious pizzas.
My husband and I stopped in to this mom and pop restaurant today, on a whim, after spending some time at the antique mall near by. We ordered the house pizza and could see when it was brought to the table that the ingredients were fresh and the pizza looked delicious! Just a yummy tasting pizza with the right amount of meat, veggies and cheese on it! The sauce had a touch of sweetness that complimented the entire pie beautifully. Enjoyed a very nice conversation with the owners afterwards. Family owned businesses need and deserve our support.
I've been driving past this little sleeper since it's been here and I JUST tried it first time this week.Classic large Pepperoni, New York style, thin with PERFECT light crispy crust. Had to fold, guess what? No river of grease out the back. It was so freaking good, and I know good pizza.10/10Strongly recommendAwesome
The atmosphere was nice. We had the Hawaiian pizza. The crust was very light and tasted just like homemade. The sauce was incredible. Not too thick or chunky. Very worth the visit.
The pizza was very tasty and authentic Brooklyn NY style!! :-)
Been here twice now and definitely going back. First time was take out. If you like garlic, we could smell it all the way home in our truck. It was a house special pizza and very delicious. The second time we dined in. They played old time Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin type music which made great atmosphere like an old time pizza spaghetti shop. This time we got the antipasto salad with our pizza. The salad was beautiful and loaded with all kinds of goodies. Looking forward to go back and try other things on their menu. Lots to pick from.
