I've been living in Dover for close to 5 years now and I have avoided this place because of the "hippie" atmosphere. But yesterday I looked at the menu and was impressed so I decided to give it a try. I ordered an 18" pizza for takeout. My pizza was done on time and they were super busy. This place always is... Anyhow when I got home I was impressed by the appearance of my pizza. It LOOKED great. What was very odd though was how totally BLAND it was to taste. I'm not sure I've ever experienced a pizza so void of flavor! Eating the leftovers today I came to the conclusion that my pizza was seriously lacking sauce. It was almost non existent. I get pizza from Stafford House all the time and it dosent taste as boring as my LA Festa pie did! Basically, service was great but flavor was a let down and it's really sad to face a pizza that looks really delicious but then tastes like air... Keep trying I guess?
Always phenomenal, never disappoints! I'd also show a photo of the garlic knots but they were torn apart, before I could get my camera out! This is the white Buffalo chicken pizza. Delicious!
Best Pizza around with variety slices ... and those garlic and/or cinnamon sugar rolls (knots) are so delicious. Always great staff and service. BBQ Bacon Steak is my favorite slice.
What a cool pizza place. Transports you back to the old pizza parlor days. You order your pizza/ garlic knots at the register and they bring it out to your table. If you order a beer you'll get a very big stein filled to the brim. They also have quite a few different ones on tap. We ordered the pepperoni pizza and it was a little greasy but was hard to stop eating. Their pizza sauce is a sweet version, which I don't usually like, but I really enjoyed it. I will definitely be back.
We go here approximately once a week because they nake the Greatest Pizza. The other menu selections such as their pasta dishes, and Canolies are Amazing as well. Excellent experience for us everytime!
I've written a review before about 15 plus years ago. Nothing has changed. La Festa's Pizza is still awesome! Also ordered online for the first time and it was so easy!
Got some pizza to go and when I got home the crust was stuck to the box making it impossible to remove a full slice. Unsure why this would happen. Maybe they put the pizza in the box before it was done as the crust was a bit undercooked.
Unfortunately it's a hit or miss getting good pizza here. Lately it's been overcooked, well burnt. This is for take out, maybe eating in is different.
Picked up takeout order for 2 pizzas exactly on time and drove 15 minutes to Durham. Pizza was too cold to eat without microwaving. Seems pizza must have been prepared well before our scheduled pickup time. Also, the toppings, even though expensive, were skimpy. We tried LaFesta because of advertised good ratings. Obviously did not work for us. Very disappointed.
Growing up in Uptown Manhattan, I enjoyed the best pizza. This is the closest I've had to a NY slice since moving to NH.The set up to order inside is efficient, with many different types of slices to choose from.Swing by and enjoy.
