PizZando

Tasty food, good service, and lots of good options. We stumbled into this spot on a cold rainy night and had a really nice time. The pizza and the burrata were excellent. We also tried the chocolate brownie - it was well made and tasty though not the biggest fan of the gelato they served on the side. We also tried the port wine and it was great.

The Bucatini all'amatriciana is the best I have had in this country. The food is served literally right off the skillet. Friendly, and helpful, staff. And the prices are very reasonable. The Italian lentil soup was awesome as well.

I had a quick lunch before heading to my spa appointment and kept it simple with the focaccia, which was warm and delicious, and an arugula salad topped with grilled chicken, paired with just water. The food was fresh and flavorful, and the service was prompt and efficient. The space wasn’t too busy since it was later in the afternoon, and the staff was attentive and kind. The meal was hearty, with generous portions at a great price. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I’m looking forward to returning and exploring more of menu options.

Amazing pizza and pasta with a great wine selection! The indoor seating is beautiful, and the covered heated patio is perfect year-round. It’s a little on the spendy side, but totally worth it—and still family-friendly. We’ll definitely be back!

Came here after a weekend of wine tasting further north. I normally stop at another restaurant in this area, but decided to try something new. I was not disappointed. Good service and really good food. My date had the ravioli and I had the lasagna. Both were quite delicious. My only complaint would be that we had to order bread separately and the portions on the ravioli could have been better. I will return for sure. There was lots on the menu I'd like to try.

One of many wonderful options on the plaza in Healdsburg. Outdoor and indoor seating. Small bar area. The cocktails were delicious. Mixed well and dressed nice. The food was equally delicious. Pizza was a little under cooked for my liking but delicious nonetheless. The artichoke was a perfect appetizer. Simple aioli and cooked so the leaves were tender. Recommend anytime you are nearby.

Food was okay but ambience was great!! Not a great experience! Staff were amazing but we didn’t like the food and there was hair in the pizza. We were compensated with a new pizza on the house though! Pizza was ok but pasta wasn’t great! Not sure if I’m gonna go back.

We recently checked out Pizzando and it did not disappoint! The staff were super friendly and welcoming, which really set the tone for a great experience. Now, let's talk about the food. The pizza was so good - crispy crust, fresh toppings, and just the right amount of cheese. We also tried some of the appetizers and they were equally delicious. It's clear that the ingredients are fresh, which makes all the difference. Overall, I highly recommend checking out Pizzando if you're in the area. The staff and atmosphere are both laid back and friendly, and the food is top-notch.

We recently visited for dinner on a BUSY Tuesday night without a reservation. Their location on the corner of Healdsburg Ave and Matheson is prime - across the street from Healdsburg's beloved Plaza, where there's live music on Tuesday nights. So the outdoor/parklet seating was understandably full, but the team was happy to seat us inside. Just note on a warm day that that inside can get pretty warm too! Three of us shared a caesar salad with added grilled chicken - classic and savory - plus cacio e pepe and broccolini pizza with the thin/romana style crust. Everything was tasty! I'd never had their thin crust pizza - it's very light and a good choice in summer. It will be my go to when I return. Our server was very warm and friendly, even if a bit green and unaware of specifics about the menu. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner. I'll try for outdoor seating in the future, and I look forward to another romana-style pizza. Cheers.

Food was delicious Homemade pasta. We had the gnocchi and the bucatini. Great wine selection. Simple elegance. We sat on the patio, we received a warm welcome with our baby and dog. Even brought a doggie water bowl, and did not hesitate when we ordered grilled chicken for our senior dog. The soft serve to finish was the perfect touch! Must do in Healdsburg!

Came here for dinner with the kids - there were 9 of us and we were able to be seated quickly. We ordered a whole bunch of pastas along with some octopus, Brussels sprouts and polenta as well. All were very well made and tasty - and my favorites are the lasagna and the Brussels sprouts. Would definitely come back here again next time!

A great place to have dinner in downtown Healdsburg without breaking the bank. The portions are quite large, I was especially surprised by the amount of truffle fries. The pizza was good and the brussel sprouts were fantastic. The service was good too.

The Lemon Parmesan Brussels Sprouts were pretty good, a little salty, cooked well, and good flavor. Definitely a good portion as well. The service is a little dry but not horrible. The pepperoni pizza is delicious with lots of cheese and very flavorful.

Friends night out. Just enjoyed another lovely dining experience! We loved the burger, pasta, gem salad, and the burrata -- which we all paired with an Aperol Spritz. Shoutout to the excellent service and welcoming atmosphere. So much to try--until next time.

Gave Pizzando another try and had a better experience this time. We ordered our food to go and we were impressed with the host person - he was really pleasant and helped us determine what was best to order. The bar is attractive (was able to watch the Warriors play) and our focaccia & burrata delicious.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Service relatively fast. Food was good. Ordered: Belfiore Burrata. Menu states heirloom tomatoes, i don't think we received heirloom tomatoes. Still tasted good just not what was expected based off of menu description/cost Bucatini Amatriciana: flavor was simple and tasted just as good as any other red pasta sauce. Pasta was a bit harder or felt a tad undercooked. Or at least to my own preference. Ratio of sauce to pasta felt unbalanced but might be my own preference. Neapolitan funghi pizza. Favorite item that we ordered. Flavor was nice, tasted like it also had some truffle oil if you enjoy that flavor. Pizza crust was crispy and soft inside.

This review is strictly about the soft serve. Truth be told, I have lived in Sonoma county for more than 3 decades and have never had a meal in Pizzando but now that soft serve is on the menu, I have visited on warm summer weekend days for a quick treat. What I find interesting is that 2out of 2 times I was in recently, the staff have informed me the soft serve is not ready and they will need to make it. on both occasions, I visited between the hours of 3pm and 6pm. The fact the soft serve is advertised on the side walk with a big soft serve cone drawing people in, and not available on demand is shocking to me. I was in most recently on a warm Sunday afternoon and the person who walked in behind me also wanted a soft serve and when we were told we had to wait for it to be made, he walked out and didn't return, I opted to wait for my treat. So moral of the story, if you are looking for a quick teat, be prepared to wait for your soft serve at Pizzando or walk to the other side of the square for a scoop from either Angela's (near Duke's bar) or a scoop from Noble Folk.

We visited the area on a Saturday afternoon and it was a cute spot. We sat near the bar area at a table. My boyfriend ordered a drink and I ate fries. The Parmesan fries were good. We came in after walking around Healdsburg for a while. This place was good!

I think I was expecting a tad bit more from Pizzando. So I give it a solid 3. I've been here before and it was much better the first time around. This time the food was just okay. Ordered some Brussels and it was just a plate full of single leaves, not really any Brussel bulbs so it was hard to enjoy them. Ordered the Margherita pizza and it didn't really have much basil on it, so I was a little disappointed. The pizza was just okay. Would I come back? Maybe for the drinks and the soft serve. HWo knows maybe third time will be the charm.

Pros: service is awesome, pricing is fair. Cons: pizza is very average and brussels sprouts missing the balsamic and bacon...

A coworker of ours suggested Pizzando for lunch and not knowing where it was located I typed it into my GPS. Once I arrived I realized I had walked by this restaurant a million times unknowingly. We came by on a Thursday with a group of 5 after a spa day. No reservations were needed, we were sat within minutes of arriving, the restaurant is modern although I found the space felt limited. The open window concept allowed for lots of natural light while we sat indoors and people watched. Outdoor seating looked lovely but weather was not permitting on this day. We ordered numerous apps, entrees and pizzas. And of course, a round of drinks (or three). At the end of lunch we wanted to try the gelato but were told the machine had been down for a few months which was a bummer. For entree I had the lobster cannoli, I had a few bites and took the rest home as I was full from all the apps. I reheated my left overs at home and found it to be even better reheated than at the restaurant! Overall I give Pizzando a 8/10. It is a great lunch spot with prime location. I'll likely be returning and hopefully trying the gelato.

Probably the worst pizza we ever had just few crumbles of cheese,hardly any sausage lots of plain pizza sauce and crust had no flavor (I think someone forgot to add salt to dough)The staff and service was excellent though so 1 star for that. The pear and ricotta appetizer was just OK.We had the orange cannoli and vanilla donuts wasn't the best. I don't think we'll be back

Cocktails and soft serve ice cream bar...why not? The other side is a small restaurant with floor-ceiling windows facing the plaza with wonderful offerings to satisfy many. Italian and local wines, craft beer and truffle fries. Pastas, pizzas, salads, sides of Brussels sprouts and other contorni, I think it would be hard to be unhappy here. I had the Burrata which is coated and fried with a tomato olive marinara -- all very delicious and hit the spot on this celebratory day. An Italian Sangiovese, a couple slices of foccacia, nice company around me to chat with, it was a sweet rainy day experience. Decaf Affogato topped it off and I was a very happy customer! Brandon was my server - nice guy, good communication. I couldn't ask for a nicer afternoon in Healdsburg. Ciao!

Went for Sonoma County Restaurant Week Lunch Food - 2/5. Caesar salad's dressing was good and I enjoyed the classic approach of offering anchovies. However, the little gem lettuce lacked crunch and so did the croutons. The croutons must have been fresh as their texture was a weird in-between of bread and crouton. Bucatini was phenomenal! Pasta was a perfect al dente, meatballs were tender and the sauce had a great balance between sour and umami. Unfortunately, the pizza was the completely opposite. Dough was bland and chewy with the tomato sauce also lacking flavor. This was surprising as the tomato sauce on the bucatini was fantastic. The main issue was with the mozzarella as it was tasteless, bland and had a spongy texture. Much of a margherita's selling point comes from a quality mozzarella that carries the entire pizza. Without that key foundation, the entire pizza suffered and felt like an absolute chore to eat. Service - 4/5. Friendly and courteous service. Value - 2/5. The pastas are priced fairly being in the mid $10s to low $20s. Portion sizes aren't the largest, but the quality carried it. Their restaurant week special was advertised on the website as any salad + any pizza, but in person the choice was only caesar and margherita, which was disappointing. The lack of variety meant that the $25 deal wasn't too great. The salad was fine but the horrible pizza made paying for it feel bitter. Parking - Street (Free)

My fourth time in a few years dining here. Always was great on all levels. Must have changed management and it is disappointing. All servers: casual yoga pants, cargo pants, hoodies, sneakers. This is on management to set expectations. From my hospitality experience the standard industry wear is polo, button up, and or slacks/dockers because if you wear loose clothing it is a food and safety hazard ( your hoodie sleeve hangs into the food), beanies. Cooks/Chef: also wearing same. Host: we were greeted and seated, but it took about 15 minutes to have the server take our order only because I flagged her down. Servers: all congregating socially often at bar or sink area... taking videos etc.. Cleaning: the first table we sat at had a horrible smell. Please don't wipe tables all day with same rag. Table Napkins: stained and worn. Food: was on point great oven pizza and sides. It is not the fault of young servers this new service is a reflection of managers not caring and owners not checking up to be at food and safety standards.

Great experience. We had the margherita pizza . The crust was delicious and my partner loved the pepper oil. The seating is comfortable and you can sit inside or outside. They are also very allergy friendly. They checked my food carefully. Parking on the street.

My partner and I were passing through and craving pizza, this spot came through with delicious pizza and calamari! We ended it with their soft serve ice cream. Thanks to our server who kindly added mushrooms to our pepperoni pizza! Outdoor patio seating.

I love this place! The service has been spot on and the Pizza always good. I make changes and add ons to get just what I want and have never been disappointed My go to: Brussels sprout's delicious and Pizza, Pepperoni, Mushroom and Anchovies! Thanks everyone for the work you put into making my experience so positive

Excellent Brocollini pizza paired with local Marine Layer Pinot Noir. Perfect-delicious! Go for the Napolitano crust!

I've never eaten at the restaurant but I've done takeout from Pizzando several times. The pizza is good -- definitely higher end than your local corner pizzeria -- but a bit oily. However, the soft serve is 10 out of 10. With Molti Amici gone (Rest in Peace), Pizzando is now probably the best pizza place in town.

Amazing food, drinks and customer service. I forgot to take pictures of our food my my friends and I had a girls weekend and went here for dinner and got the spaghetti & meatballs, mozzarella pizza, beef bolognese, and lasagna and shared and it was all so good. The outdoor patio was perfect with cute lights and heat lamps.

They make a superb Caesar Salad and the pizza is 9/10 most of the time. The current pic reflect two weeks ago where the pizza was crispy, flaky and bubbly just what I expected but on may 20th it was stiff like it had been reheated so 9 stars for that plus the staff really wasn't on it they left us out there for at least 15 minutes before taking our order. I usually pop in here after a bike ride and I'm always satisfied so the one bad pizza day won't end my visits.

We had a great lunch, comfortable seating, nice waitress, delicious food. The herbed chicken panini was fresh and flavorful, with a wonderful watercress and field greens salad. He had a pasta bolognese that was one of the best I've ever had. Nice modern brewpub decor was also a treat.

Saw the reviews, but thought I'd try and see for myself. Nice and warm inside compared to the windy and cold weather. I love pizza so glad I tried this place! Tho it needed a few improvements when I got there. People sitting , waiting for a LONG time. And it wasn't busy . A few tables . . . Service wasn't great when I went. The pizza oven was a small one that seemed to have been booked up by an online order pickup, so I had to wait a long awhile. Service was confused on tables and wasn't paying attention . The wait was a while's . A few next to me got frustrated before I even did on timing . One had to finally go up and ask for their check that a different server looked up (the original one just left) , and the other next to me was just frustrated but patient ( I didn't tell them that I saw their pizza in a box then taken out on a platter to serve ). The communication between kitchen and server is pretty poor.. . People were walking in and out of the kitchen that was in front of the dining area like a fun coworker gathering while tables were waiting for a long time for even drink orders . Oof. Just needed a lot of improvements when I visited . It's got potential , but definitely needs ALOT of work based off my experience . Good flavor profiles on pizza picks . Lot of people frustrated tonight when I was there . Hope for the best for this crew !

I had a great time at Pizzando. It was raining cats and dogs on the afternoon of my visit and the staff was warm and friendly. They braved the rain to accommodate those sitting in their outdoor cafe. My friend and I had a great time at the bar chatting with staff and getting their recommendations for lunch. The price is right for a Healdsburg pizza and the pasta selection is creative as well. This is my second visit here and will come back again to try the pasta and salad.

Service was excellent and got my meatball panini on homemad rosemary focacia with mozzarella fairly quickly. Food is delicious and so was the refreshing glass of strawberry lemonade. The salad that came with my meal was mostly arugula, which I love and a vinegrette. It was frsh and colorful. It is conveniently local across from the plaza in downtown Healdsburg. The wait staff was attentive and gracious. Looks like the place a wood-fired pizza. May return again someday.

Food, Service, and Ambiance! Wow! I stopped by during the week for a late lunch. My Caesar Salad was delicious, I loved all the added anchovies. The margarita pizza was great. My special cocktail was tasty. But my Waitperson, Falentina made the experience really special and enjoyable. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and spot on with the service. I will be coming back soon and bringing my friends with me! Thank you for a fun dining experience.

So good. Yes the pizza was ordered half without the broccolini but it was amazing how accommodating the restaurant was and they took the time to explain the dishes. I wish more places had this many amazing options. Sitting outside was nice as they had patio heaters. It made for a great birthday weekend lunch with family.

Major fly problem since day 1 and still have done nothing to contain it. A complete sanitation program can help keep flies to a minimum by eliminating the food and water sources flies need to survive. Proper sanitation also helps eliminate odors, which can be a first attractant for many fly species.

Oh my. Had the pleasure of dining here on a recent wine weekend in Healdsburg. I say dining because even though this place is casual you get a real foodie experience. The service is spot on, not stuffy at all but very laid back. The food. Well the food. Everyone at the table, including our vegetarians, loved the food. The artichoke appetizer should not be missed. Simple Bolognese gets elevated to a new level. Get the dessert even if you have to struggle to get it down your gullet after all of the delicious food you just ate. A great wine list rounds it out. What are you waiting for? Go!

Wish we had come sooner to this local Italian gem of a restaurant. Almost didn't leave a review, worried that too many will decend and devour and we won't be able as locals to get in the door. We like the restaurant immensely.

Don't want to cook so stop on for a pizza. Sat around and enjoyed a cockatoo and some own ordered a Margarita with sausage pizza. that sounded great so i ordered the same with double sausage as i'm extra. Wow BEST PIZZZA ever! will definitely cole back again for sure.

We ate outside in the parklet set up during Covid and still being used for outdoor dining. My husbands chair leg fell into a hole where the wood decking had worn away. We brought it to our waitpersons attention and were told the staff had repeatedly told the manager but nothing was being done. My caprese sandwich was all bread, watery, and with no discernible olive oil or flavor to give it any interest or authenticity. It came with a huge salad which was actually fine. Presentation and quality lacking. Service was good.

Do not come here! Since owner wants to claim my review was fake and get it removed, I'll just repost it. The bathroom has a baby cockroach in it ( this happens when there is an infestation, you only see babies when the nest is full). The burger I got tasted like the grill was dirty, fries were too oily and made my stomach hurt. Here's a tip it's not something you can seal off when you see a baby cockroach in bathroom, they are all over the restaurant.

The food was okay. We got the sausage pizza and it wasn't my favorite. I couldn't even finish my piece. I also got the meatball pasta, could use stronger seasoning or maybe a side salt and pepper shaker for the table. The food wasn't the best but the drinks were great ! The spicy margarita was amazing. The service wasn't bad. Our waitress did her best considering it was very busy. I liked the outdoor seating very much. Overall okay experience.

Their Woodfire pizza was exactly what my husband wanted. We were in town celebrating his bday walking around and just happened by Pizzando. Happy we stopped in and we will be back!!'

Food was average. So were the cocktails. The flavors didn't add up. The ingredients in each dish weren't pairing well with each other. It was like they hadn't been taste tested before putting on the menu. Composition was also off, for example the ratio of cheese to a pizza pie was not balanced. This restaurant is located inside a hotel. Serving staff is kind, helpful and courteous.

We came to eat tonight and it was 45° outside. We were sat right next to the door that was left open. I closed it once, then 1 minute later the staff looked right at me and opened the door and place the door stop to keep the door open. I closed it again, and they didn't same thing. I'm pretty upset they did not take into consideration my family and I were cold. The kids running the floor need to understand that customers should be comfortable.

This was perfect for our large party. Pizzas are big enough to share for 2. But try an appetizer! Gluten free pizza options are available as well!

friendly, moderate to good service. Pizzas were very good with a great crust. We sat inside and enjoyed watching the activity in downtown Healdsburg. Just one of my pet peeves is the add-on gratuity for the kitchen or whatever. Pay your staff what they are worth and allow the gratuity to happen naturally. If you charge, it's not a gratuity it's a surcharge.

Had a fun meal here on a Saturday early evening. We chose to dine in their covered dining area outdoors. They have plenty of heaters. Tried the Autumn pizza, it was different with squash on it, it was very good. The Caesar salad delicious as well. Wait staff was very nice, helpful and always checked on us. Oh, we did have the soft serve ice cream for dessert, but I think the machine was not working correctly. Would not order that again. A very enjoyable meal for date night in Healdsburg (we are locals!)

Busy warm October night. Entire town is crammed with tourists. Ate at the outside parklet on the street. The server greeted us almost immediately. We downloaded the menu from the table QR code. Water served quickly. We ordered the seasonal pizza (slices of squash, some pancetta, drizzle of a thick & sweet balsamic vinegar) , Cesar salad, 3 glasses of wine. Overall, good food. Carefully made. Flavorful. Not trendy nor hipster. Of course we finished up with soft serve ice cream. Which was the low point of the meal. The texture was gritty, hardly any of the creaminess texture you expect from soft serve. Out the door for $94 with tax and tip. Satisfied enough. I'd return.

Let's start with the ambiance, I was greeted by a very pleasant server, and of course I opted to sit outside with Lia. While the outdoor seating was comfortable, the only issue I had was that these parklet styled seats were literally on the street and it was a bit unnerving sitting there and hearing vehicles roar past you literally with what felt like inches behind your back . Most diners will probably not have this experience, because they will more than likely opt to sit inside. Score for dining ambiance, 7 out of 10. So beyond that, let's talk about the food. I ordered the mushroom pizza and the guava cider, and both were very good, I would give these an 8 out of 10. I would admit that when I first tasted the pizza, the flavor was slightly offputting, not sure why... It was after all a white pizza and maybe it was the garlic cream sauce, or something else that threw me off. However, less than an hour later, it was all gone, so I guess it wasn't all that bad . As I finished eating, they cleared my table, offered me dessert, which, of course I declined and within minutes later got my check. Service throughout was good, very attentive...although, the fact that I was literally finishing my last slice of pizza while the server put the check on the table. It felt slightly awkward, even though she said, "no rush." I would think in hospitality etiquette, that would be considered a faux pas. Overall, the service was great, I wouldn't give it a perfect score, so maybe 8 out of 10. So that would give us an overall score of 7.6 out of 10...would go again

We absolutely loved eating here!! beautiful indoor and outdoor seating - we chose the outdoor and it was such a lovely experience. our servers were all so so kind and the food was the best pasta and pizza we have ever had!! 10/10!!

We stopped by after visiting our FAVORITE winery, Merriams. The service was incredibly slow, and the food wasn't standout, but nothing was inedible either. It was thoroughly average! We probably won't go back unless the places nearby are closed. The wins: well cooked pizza crust, good amount of food

We got a pizza for lunch on the day that we were leaving. The toppings were delicious the capicola and the banana peppers awesome. The crust was a little soggy on the on the bottom in the middle. The variety on the menu was also really nice. The location of the pizza place is perfect it was in Hotel Healdsburg which is where we were staying and it's right off the Square. Also we could order it and have it at the pool which is really nice during the day.
