Emiliano's Pizza - City of Poughkeepsie

This is my top choice for pizza in Poughkeepsie. It never lets me down. I've only dined in the restaurant once, and the service was satisfactory. The dining area was pretty typical. I usually opt for takeout, which has consistently been quick and efficient.

This is my absolute favorite pizza place! I’ve never had a single complaint. The staff is fantastic, the dining area is charming and tidy, and the food is simply delicious. Stop by for a slice and enjoy some Italian music while seated at the red checkered tablecloth. I can’t recommend this place highly enough!

DELIVERY REVIEW - 2/7/24: I wanted to treat the hardworking staff of the Vassar Brothers Medical Center ambulatory surgery unit on the second floor for the care they provided for my daughter. They recommended this pizzeria, and I based my rating on the ease of ordering, the promptness of the delivery within the specified time frame, and the joy on the staff's faces when I brought the food to them. Since I didn’t taste the pizzas, I can’t comment on the flavor myself. I requested the pizzeria to make extra slices so that everyone could have some; instead of the usual 8 slices per pizza, I was hoping for 10. MY ORDER INCLUDED: One Large Cheese Pizza, one White Pizza, one Meat Lovers Pizza for the staff, and a GLUTEN-FREE pizza for my daughter to take home. The total cost, including an $8 tip for the delivery driver, came to around $70. Just a tip: they offer great Cheese, White, and Meat Lovers pizzas, plus a gluten-free option!

A solid pizza place for speciality slices! Came here looking for a quick bite before heading home. Service was as sweet and polite as can be as we ordered a few regular slices and a white slice. While you wait, enjoy the scenes of Italy painted on the walls. The white slice came with a thin spreading of ricotta with plenty of herbs and garlic on top. It was delightful. The garlic actually had a sweetness to it which was not offensive. And the undercarriage is quite thin but still soft. The regular slice on the other hand, not my favorite. Still thin, still cheesy, but I wish the sauce had a bit more flavor to round it out. Overall, if you find yourself starving after a hike or a walk in the area, would gladly recommend this place!

We were in Poughkeepsie to visit the nearby Discovery Museum and happened upon Emiliano's. Boy were we lucky. This pizza brought me back to my youth, delicious thin crust just the right amount of sweet and savory sauce and cheese. The slices were large and there was even a Monday special a whole pie for $10!!! I don't live anywhere near Emiliano's but if I were to be passing by again, I would make sure to stop. Delicious and worth the trip. Service was very friendly.
