Sergio’s Pizza is a restaurant known for its delicious and generously-sized pizzas. The Jumbo pizza is particularly noted for its huge size, being so large that it had to be placed in the trunk of a compact car. The XL pizza will not fit in your Corolla! The pizza is praised for its freshness, hot temperature, and crispy, buttery crust. The chicken Parm is especially good and the mussels appetizer is well worth it. The restaurant’s pizza is described as consistently delicious and homemade.
It’s great for sit down or take out. The staff is super nice and the place always seems like a party. Customers also enjoy the Detroit Style pizza, which has plenty of cheese and delicious sauce, along with a highly recommended cannoli for dessert that is considered the best in years. The restaurant is popular and often busy, making it a good spot for date night or group gatherings.
