Little Italy Restaurant

We stopped in for lunch today, first time since the shop changed hands. We each had a baked sub (Philly steak for me, meatball for her); both were delicious! We are looking forward to having a couple of cold ones and a pizza when they get their beer license!

Little Italy Pizza is a new pizzeria located in Mt Pleasant Market Place shopping center in Chesapeake. Connecting roads are Mt Pleasant Rd and Centerville Turnpike. The restaurant location is within the former Casa Di Costanzo Pizza where the owners recently retired.

I had my first meal from here Sunday afternoon. We did a carry out order that included 2 large pepperoni pizzas with a salad and an order of garlic knots. We made the order over the phone via the slice app so all we needed to do was go pick it up. Upon pickup we watched them remove both pizzas from the oven, slice them and box them and we were on our way.

Within a few moments the pies were home and plated. The warm fresh dough of the pizza had just enough flexibility to semi fold the slice so that the point kept it's shape. The sauce was perfectly between sweet and bitter without being acidic. The cheese blend was excellent and the pepperoni was plentiful. These pies had no chance in **** and were swiftly devoured as were the salad and garlic knots.

Excellent meal. Fair price and even though they were fairly busy just before 5pm when we picked up the order, the staff was on the ball and working like a well oiled machine! An easy 5 stars.

let me just tell you, the i tried the pepperoni for the first time today, and that man in the kitchen knows his dough.

perfectly cooked underbelly, great flavor in the sauce and the right amount of cheese.

Keep up the good work Deshawn,
i will be returning!
