Schiano's Pizzeria

I'm from Ohio. Grew up in New York. I miss New York style pizza. Their pizza is a nice remberence for me...it's really good. Had to have it on a visit in Rochester with family last October.

I went looking for chicken parmesan one day. I had been by Schiano's a bunch and decided to try them. I found the best chicken parmesan sub ever. Their meatball sub is amazing as well. After I ate a bunch of both I decided to try their slices of pizza. I had their meatball ricotta and fell instantly in love. It is heaven on a slice. Also their appetizers are phenomenal. The frickle logs are odd but the best. Best subs in Rochester, amazing appetizers, and great pizza. The staff is pretty darn great too.

I was looking for a spot when visiting downtown Rochester and this was the first shop on the list. Touting NY style pizza which is a rare find in upstate NY, I was excited to eat my favorite style pie. Ordering wings, large cheese, soda, and pretzels. Everything certainly looked great. Wings were best outside of Buffalo, kids mauled the pretzels, and the slice wasnt bad, much better cold, but wasnt the best NY style pizza I've had. Still that's stiff competition they are facing.

Stopped in while I was working the other day and met the owner, Mario. Seems like a cool guy. I got a couple slices and was impressed with those as well. The crust was thin and not all greasy, and the "sweet and sour" (Country Sweet?) slice reminded me that there may actually be a couple things I miss about living in Rochester since I moved out to the country.

This place always comes through. Garbage plates and famous meatball in a cup are awesome. As well as their pizza! I go here almost every weekend and will continue! Staff is organized and friendly.
