The restaurant is very cute like most restaurants in Soulard. The staff was friendly and very helpful with recommendations. We ordered the South 12. The pizza was good, I just think that my expectations were very high. The crust was the best part. I'm definitely going to come back and see if another pizza might be more to me liking.

I apologize that I forgot his name, but our server (the one with glasses and his hair tied up) was amazing. He gave us such a passionate and detailed rundown of all the different kinds of pizza on the menu, even letting us in on the secret menu. Overall, the pizza turned out amazing he knew how to tailor recommendations, picking the perfect cheeses and toppings to match each of our palates perfectly. On top of that, he recommended the perfect little hole-in-the-wall spot for us to check out during our trip. Truly one of the highlights of our visit

Food was absolutely delicious!! Came here for an anniversary dinner and was not disappointed. The waitlist situation is a little frustrating to deal with, so I would recommend dining on a weekday to maybe avoid having to use the waitlist. Other than that, I would definitely eat here again!

I grew up in CT. I know pizza. I've traveled the country and learned the hard way there's no other pizza like it, especially not in DC. I saw a fellow Nutmegger gave Pizzeoli rave reviews, so I decided to give it a shot and holy shorts...talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid, etc et al esq copywritten so don't copy me it was damn good! I got the amazing wings and the very dope prosciutto pizza. However, there was a regular along with a phenomenal bartender who really made the evening for me. I've since lost their names in my mind (sorry!) But he made me more than a few laphroaig cocktails, including a...paper boy? Idk but it was absolutely delicious. Sadly, I have zero reason to go back to St. Louis any time soon but the moment I do, I'll be back!

This place is awesome. From the food to the staff and the setting. Me my wife and son went and by far best pizza weve had in st.louis. plus the 2 guys at the oven were super nice and friendly. It is a little pricey but worth every penny. We had the mushroom red and the st.louisian pepperoni both were so damn good. We will b back

We loved Pizzeoli! Our waiter was charming, witty and obviously a huge fan of Pizzeoli himself. I ordered a delicious mocktail (suggested by our waiter) and was not disappointed. The arancini was amazing, the goddess salad so fresh and light and the prosciutto and parm pizza was tremendous. We will be back.

I’ve walked past this place for two years and regret not going in sooner. They have sooooo many menu options, and everything we ordered was phenomenal, this coming from a loyal deep dish Chicagoan. I will come to this restaurant every time I’m in town. Great staff too. Love the Tiffany lamps at each table!

We ordered the distinguished gin-tleman and water cocktails - they might have been the very best we've ever had! The appetizers were also fantastic. Most importantly, the service was great. Our host Karen was beyond friendly, and our server Taylor was quick and attentive. Can't recommend enough :)

Such a cozy pizza place where every seat is a booth, intimate string lights strung overhead, the music is relaxing and not too loud. The staff is welcoming and friendly. It's very convenient to see how long the wait might be through the Yelp app and join the waitlist on the way over. Mayfair wings 1lb $18 - These wings were crispy, flavorful, and juicy. Fourth City Sausage & Pepperoni $25 - Great sauce and tasty toppings. Street parking was easy to find. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2025

Rating the best pizza and wings in st louis and surrounding areas. Pizza: not my favorite type of crust but with that being said. This Pizza was absolutely amazing. It was perfectly cooked, had amazing sauce, texture and flavor. 7.6/10 Wings: 7.8/10 The crunch and flavor of these wings is amazing. I think it's because they are fried in tallow and not normal oil. So the wings have an amazing texture and bite to them. And having a flight is awesome as you get to try 4 different flavors of sauce. All of which are delicious especially the sweet tea sauce. I'll be back to this place for sure and try new items and update my review to 5 stars if it's as good as this experience.

I'm starting to think I just might not be the biggest fan of Neapolitan style. This pizza was nothing special. Arancini was flavorless. The caesar salad was the best thing we got, but I can't ignore how stale the croutons were. I will say, though, that the restaurant is very charming. I love the retro decor and lighting. The people that work here are very welcoming and greeted us with smiles. Our server was helpful but slightly off-putting. I left a bit disappointed as I had somewhat of high hopes for the food. I'm still continuing my quest to find a pizza better than O+O.. Favorite dishes: BLTeaser salad

I love a wood fired pizza and cannot believe it took me so long to come here living in soulard. They have so many good sounding pizzas on their menu, it can be hard to choose, but truthfully every pizza I have had has been insanely good! The BLTeaser salad has to be one of the best Caesar salads I've ever had. The greasy bacon croutons really take it up a notch. We've had amazing service every time we have been and enjoy sitting inside or outside. Even with it being in soulard, parking has never been too much of a hassle! Be sure to join their reward program!!

This is the place for excellent food, cocktails and wine! As soon as you enter, you are greeted by staff at the front. There is a small bar area to the right with a few seats and a small waiting area. The restaurant area is cozy and comfortable. The staff is great about telling you about drink and happy hour specials. They also have a great selection of wine and beer. If you like sangria, definitely try it here! The menu is huge with SO many pizzas that it can be difficult to choose! But no worries because whatever you choose will be delicious! I have had the arancini and the arugula salad both times I visited because they were so delicious I had to have them again! The arancini could be a meal on their own! Cooked to perfection with a delicious sauce! They also have a large selection of various types of wings! So, you could have a pizza and salad or just make a meal of the appetizers! This is a place you can keep going back to and trying new things from the menu each time! My only complaint was the second time we visited, the service was a bit lacking. This was disappointing as they were not crowded and the service kind of fell off after we got our food, but that wont stop me from returning. This place gets busy on evenings and weekends so expect a wait or put your name on the waitlist!

5 stars all the way. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The atmosphere so cool, intimate, and comfortable. And the food was phenomenal. We ordered a lot of food but it came out quickly. My top favorites were the summer berry salad, the wing flight, and the affogato. I will definitely be back!

Tried this place for the first time. Wonderful experience. Cozy urban pizza place with the best craft cocktails I've ever had. Started with garlic knots and arancini. Crispy and delicious. Moved onto a meatball/arugula pizza with a béchamel sauce and my son had a pepperoni pizza. The crust is outstanding.

For our first time trying it, the taste wasn't bad but my opinion overpriced. Got 2 medium pizzas, breadsticks, and desserts. Was like 85$. Don't think I'll be back here. The prices were different on line too

Really enjoyed our dinner! We will be back again. We went online and added our name to the wait. Arrived and a table outside was open by the time we got there. Hostess was fantastic. Food was amazing. Only item I would critique was the service once we sat down. We sat quite a while with no one to greet us. I had to even go in to the host bc the table behind us got service before us after waiting quite a while. Overall table service felt a bit lacking. Server wasn't super friendly and felt like we could have been checked on a bit more often. We ran out of water and I needed ranch. I had to ask when I went to the restroom. Really will be back again and hope that this service was a fluke bc it was super busy. Best pizza I have had in STL!

WOULD recommend (general). Came and stopped by out of curiosity of trying a new spot in St. Louis. They took about 25-30 minutes to make our order (1 pizza), which was concerning at first (because id was hangry) but isn't as bad seeing that it is authentically made and wood fired. When we got the pizza, it looked exactly like the pictures they got on the menu. We ordered the 12 South, but with no Arugula (not because it tastes bad, was just in the mood for a strictly meat pizza). These pizzas are 12" so good enough for 2 people maximum (maybe 1 person if you are a bigger dude like me). When we tried the pizza, we could see why this is seen as a hidden gem. Was a great cheese combination (gouda, mozzarella) the tomato jam was filled with flavor. The dough was okay but I did have to say that the crusty got chewy near the end. That was really the only complaint I had about their pizza and for $26, it is as expected. All in all, this place wasn't too bad at all, is a nice place to stop by if you are at Soulard and want a good slice of pizza. We did carryout, but they have dine-in tables, patios for the summer time, and a bar as well.

One of my favorite pizza spots in St. Louis! The pizza is wood fired to perfection and they have a great selection of rotating cocktails and draft beer. I always order the arancini when I stop in. They're jammed backed with flavor, crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. The marinara is the perfect complement to the arancini. There's so many pizzas to choose from and you can't go wrong. I highly recommend the Roasted Mushroom and the Capocolla. The staff are always friendly and service is great. I highly recommend making a reservation because it's a smaller space and they're usually busy.

Pizza, wings, salad, and drinks were delicious. The service was great. Appreciated that everything was fresh. Didn't like that the drinks are by the bottle, with no fountain options (just water).

Been a few times and this place does not disappoint! The pineapple habanero glazed wings are probably one of my top five favorite wing flavors I've ever tried. The wings are cooked perfectly and compliments to the chef on this dish. Pizzas are delicious and this joint makes amazing cocktails to boot! Definitely a place worth checking out for a hip, first date or just grabbing a bite and drinks with friends!

Pizzeoli was a great pizza spot! The service was really great, the restaurant is cozy, and I enjoyed the food a lot. Tried: arancini, bbq chicken pizza, pepperoni pizza Loved: the arancini was a highlight for me - the breading was light but crispy and it tasted great Liked: street parking makes it harder to park but there are lots of spots within a block of the restaurant

Ate here with some friends and it was incredible. Kyle, the owner was here and had the best suggestions for what to eat. Karen was also an incredible host and made us feel welcome. We got the golf cart pizza which is magical. Make sure to try that when you come visit.

Pizzeoli is a true gem nestled in the heart of Soulard, perfect for a cozy and romantic night out. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a first date. From the moment we walked in, the service was top-notch. Our bartender, Daniel, was exceptional--he not only made fantastic drink recommendations but crafted some of the best cocktails I've had in the area. The food was nothing short of phenomenal. Each dish had so much flavor, and you can tell a lot of love goes into their menu. And speaking of menus, make sure to ask about the secret one--there are hidden gems that are well worth discovering!

Update - fav is def the gabagool pizza. Perfect combo of sweet and salty. Wings are also so crispy and juicy!! Must have (leave some room) - the affogato!! It's plenty of ice cream, strong espresso, and perfect to share for the table! I've been here so many times and it never disappoints! Service is always so friendly and a perfect place for a casual date night.

One of my favorite spots!! Recently went here for a happy hour and got to finally enjoy the patio. We got the seasonal frozen cocktails as part of the happy hour (raspberry margarita and mezcal paloma). For food we had Arancini, Margherita pizza and BLTeaser salad - food arrived quickly and everything was delicious. We each had dessert - a slice of tiramisu cheesecake and affogato, YUM! The service is phenomenal. The inside is cozy and great for groups of all sizes. The patio is so fun when the weather is nice. Highly recommend!

Loved trying Pizzeoli pizza! We didn't have a reservation but just added ourselves to the waitlist before we got there which I recommend. It took about 25-30 minutes for us to get each pizza once we ordered so make sure you have plenty of time before you go. We got the Butterbird which was awesome and just a classic cheese. The crust is thin but it's definitely not STL style. It's unique. For dessert, we ordered the Creve brûlée ice cream sandwich which was awesome. The ice cream sandwich was pretty large so probably best shared with at least one other person. We sat inside in a booth but there is seating both inside and outside. We also thought it was cool that you see the wood fire oven right when you walk in. Cool experience overall. 8.5/10

Hey, fans. New pizza place for us! Brought me, Wifey, youngest, and MIL. I started with a local Oktoberfest. MIL had the Maine Sasparilla. Youngest had the espresso martini. Wifey had the local homemade lemonade. The lemonade according to wifey was a bit tart. She likes a bit sweeter, but it was very good, nonetheless. The espresso martini according to youngest was so smooth and the best one she has had. With her experience as a bartender and immense love of coffee, I will take her opinion of this drink as accurate. I had the Oktoberfest Marzen. It was adequate. Quite smooth, but lacking in the full body I've come to expect from other Oktoberfests I've had. On to the appetizer. We got the smorgasbord. It was an inviting flavorful start to the meal. The combinations of different cheeses and the chutney with Brie and raspberry jam were a great way to warm up the taste buds. While waiting for the main course: Staff: nice! We put in our reservation about two hours before we got a table. Do it. Go online and make your reservation. Especially on the weekend! The server Emily was pleasantly prompt, nice, and efficient. So, call ahead, and service is great. On to the pizza. To start, It looks PHENOMENAL. The taste is good-better than good. I cannot give it a "great". It looked amazing, but, the sauce (to me) seemed a teeny bit under-flavored. The crust had a superb sweetness. The ingredients were all fresh and plentiful. My only issue was I was not a huge fan of the sauce. It was good, but, not great. Wifey got the Arugula salad and exchanged the goat cheese for Parmesan as a matter of preference. It was a very bright, delicious salad. Wifey loves arugula, and a delicious arugula salad always puts a smile on her face as they are not common in restaurants. So yummy arugula salad = happy wife and happy life. Overall, wonderful experience. Very highly recommended.

Overall, this is a great place in Soulard for wood fired pizza. Highly recommend checking it out! WAIT TIME: I made a reservation for Sunday at 7:30pm, and so didn't have to wait at all when I came in. We placed our order and we were impressed how quickly it came out (only like 10 mins later). Everything was very smooth and effortless. FOOD: We ordered the Fourth City Sausage & Pepperoni pizza to split between two of us. It was so delicious! The flavors are classic and they all go well together, and the portion size (12" pie) was perfect. They have an extensive menu so you'll be left curious to try more next time! SERVICE: QR code menu was easy to access, and our server was very attentive and had a great attitude. Very pleasant experience overall. AMBIANCE: The pizza parlor vibes this place gives are great. They have Christmas lights up and when you walk in you can see the wood fire oven. I really liked the ambiance! The space is a little small so if you're seated next to a larger crowd it can get noisy. PRICE: $42 total for a pizza and two drinks. Pretty well priced for a dinner date.

Im visiting family in St. Louis and saw this popup on an stl foodie list as a great pizza place! Upon further looking they are on Yelps list for the top 100 pizza restaurants in the US. Im from Chicago- so my pizza expectations are pretty high- and no locals don't eat deep dish often- we have many many other options! We decided to order carryout instead of dining inside. You can place your order online or call on the phone. Pizzeoli's customer service was excellent! I had a lot of questions about specific ingredients and what was in things- the gluten free crust, dressings, sauces etc. We had someone eating with us who had restrictions with gluten, dairy and refined sugar. She was wonderful and went to ask the Chef directly. Pizzeoli's really goes the extra mile to make things in house and if not- its locally sourced. They use high quality ingredients, grassfed, etc. I really appreciate that!! You can absolutely tell once you taste the food! We decided to get 2 salads and 2 pizzas to share. We were able to customize the Arugula Salad with no goat cheese- the lemon dressing is also super clean. They use agave, but not any refined sugar. We also got the BLTeaser salad, The Golf Cart Pizza and Roasted Mushroom/White pizza. Everything was excellent!!! The dough is light airy- the toppings are quality and flavorful. The BLTeaser salad YUM! I would absolutely go back and try more things- it was hard to pick a pizza and they have many unique options! I also want to try the wings (they are fried in beef tallow)! Really great spot!!! Overall experience 5/5

Came for a date night and wasn't disappointed! Honestly the Cesar wings were kind of life changing and I wish they would bring them back. We sat outside and it was pretty quick with the service plus the staff were attentive. We enjoyed a ton, oh also the sign in the bathroom I had to cackle. Definitely give this place a try, plus they accept reservations which you can't beat makes things easier for sure!

This place is incredible. The decor transports you to an old living room and is so cozy. The drinks are incredible. Arancini and garlic knots are a must try for appetizers. They have a wood fire pizza and exes the simplest of pizzas are incredible. Service was amazing even though the place was super busy- would recommend checking wait before going!

We had a bit of a wait to get a table, but we've should've used the Yelp online reservations. I had the Valentine's Day salad and it tasted so fresh and wonderful. The pizza, one word, DELICIOUS. They had an awesome looking drink menu, but we didn't drink. They don't have any fountain drinks, but they have a special iced tea which was really good.

We ordered the Margherita pizza and we were very happy with it. The crust is extra tasty from the wood burning pizza. The server brought out hot honey when we asked. We enjoyed seeing the oven as we walked in. It is decorated in what looks like white and black tiling.

Great local beer selections, awesome pounds of lightly breaded and fried chicken wings with choose 4 dipping sauces. A pizza! "The meatball"was fantastic--add a little crush red pepper from the shaker and a sprinkle of salt and it was perfect. nice pizza place vibes and friendly service too. The ice cream sandwich dessert was primo!

I wanted to like this restaurant so bad! We went here a couple of weeks ago. My partner had one of the vegan pizzas - the Cash Room Pizza. The sauce and cashew cheese was bland. Unfortunately, there was no distinct flavor. I had the Prosciutto and Parmesan Pizza. Mine was good but the prosciutto was not evenly distributed throughout. I felt like it was lacking flavor in some bites. The price/per pizza was just not worth it. The saving grace, however, was the arancini! This was perfectly crisp on the outside and had a good balance of saffron on the inside. They clearly have taken the time to perfect this recipe. Also, the ambience of the space was nice. The restaurant is definitely a great date night spot with the booths and dim lighting. If you're considering going here I recommend sticking with the appetizers or getting different pizzas than we did.

I found this restaurant in a news article that said it's the best pizza place in the state of Missouri! The article was not wrong. Many different interesting combinations, wood-fired, great flavor and texture. Unique ambience, candle lit tables, friendly service, there's just nothing to complain about at this restaurant. Definite five stars!

Looking for pizza in Soulard; just go to Pizzeoli! We had reservations which was great, no waiting. Our server, Justin was great. Helped us with app suggestions (wing flight) and then our pizza choice. Perfect suggestions. Wings were fried to perfection and then we were given 4 sauces for dipping. Pizza perfect! Got the Buffalo Chicken pizza and we couldn't stop raving about the jam on top! The pizza had so much flavor! Great comfy cozy pizza place! Drinks were tasty too!

Talk about a Friday evening well spent. The food, the drinks, the ambience all rival the best of St. Louis. The menu? Extensive. We were pleasantly surprised by the plethora of pizza options Pizzeoli offers. An array of sauces, cheeses, proteins, and unorthodox toppings adorn the menu. We wanted to try every single offering, but knew that was not in the cards. Finally, we decided to leave it to chance and had a coin flip tournament where the Meatball reigned victorious. Boy, did chaos choose wisely. The meatballs were juicy and flavorful. The pizza was topped with a white sauce and a generous amount of creamy cheese. The dough is super thin yet still flimsy. A skill pizzeoli has perfected. The crust is airy, crispy, and beautiful to just stare at. For drinks the water lily and fat washed tropical negroni were the choices. Both are quite complex with respect to flavor, but still enjoyable. The negroni was savory, chocolatey, and banana-y. I really enjoyed it. The balance was not completely there, but once again, still a solid drink. The water lily was great, too. Much more balanced in my opinion. The gin does not over power the drink as the orange liqueur provides enough brightness and fruitiness to offset the botanical of the gin and creme de violette. Basically an aviation with orange liqueur instead of luxardo. The garlic knots have a strangle hold on me. They are dense but still airy and light. Buttery with the pepper glued to the outside. Oh, they just melt in your mouth. Sorry, things are getting sensual just thinking about them. The wings were superb as well. Incredibly crispy and that bourbon butter bbq is the real deal. I want to try the pineapple habanero soon. The sauce was smooth, tangy, and rich. The right amount of sweetness with the kick of bourbon. Of course, all melded together by the butter. Pizzeoli far surpassed expectations for me. They were incredibly busy and our server, shelby, warned us of that up front. She kept great pace and we were able to enjoy a beautiful St. Louis evening on their street adjacent patio. I need to touch on the vibes before I close this thing out. It was quiet and intimate while still maintaining a bustling feel. I like how despite the busyness it still felt quiet and orderly. Some places make you feel rushed or you just see people moving fast. At pizzeoli, you just move at your own pace and enjoy the show.

Not my top 5 but is good. I like a thicker crust. The flavors are good. You can make reservations though yelp or just walk in. Parking is in the street or there is a lot across the street. I love the atmosphere here. Warm and Cozy. Had some older music playing. They had water ready at the table. The soda comes in bottles = no free refills. Food- Arancini and garlic notes were good. Had the BLT Teaser was loaded with cheese on top. Pizza we ordered the margarita and a New York with bacon. Pizza was good but again was looking for a little thicker crust. Overall the place is good.

Superb pizza! Maybe the best neopolitan I have ever had. The crust was a perfect chewy consistency and toppings were freshly prepared and flavorful. Did not care for the chicken wings, which were puny, greasy, and all flats. However, it was not enough to affect the 5* rating.

Excellent food and excellent service. Two staff people told us unprompted how much they love working here and it shows. The wait staff was patient with us, having a girl dinner and taking our sweet time. We shared a pizza, a salad, and the chili garlic knots. So dang good!

I've been wanting to try this place ever since a friend recommended it, and it did not disappoint! We ordered the Fourth City sausage and pepperoni pizza, and it was incredible. The fennel in the sausage, the slight heat from the pepperoni, and the peppery bite of the arugula--absolute perfection. ‍‍I cannot wait to come back and try more from the menu! Just a heads-up: it gets busy, even on a Sunday night, so be prepared for a wait if you walk in. Luckily, you can reserve a spot online through their website.

We waited for over an hour. First we were told that they were slammed, but that didn't track because all the tables around us had been served, eaten and left. Eventually the manager came out and said that they ran out of béchamel sauce and that's why it had taken longer. If that's the case, you come back out to the family with the toddler and ask if they'd like something else. And then, when the pizza got there, is awful. It's not crispy, and it was pretty much cold when it got to the table. And the pizza my parents ordered was so salty, they couldn't eat it. We'll obviously not be returning, and found ourselves there out of circumstance. The service was awful too. The salad was good, and a decent size. And the sauce the wings came with was good. But the atmosphere was just awful and the place isn't run by professionals. Why do restaurants think they can make everything ok by offering a round of drinks or desserts? We just wanted to leave. Terrible experience!

Came here with a friend for dinner on a Friday prevening with no reservation. Despite being fairly crowded, we were promptly seated on the patio - I have not yet tried sitting indoors here, but the entrance hall with the oven, counter and bar is lively and inviting. We split the arugula salad and their pizza called "The Sub." The salad was a refreshing and light way to get started, simplicity done well. On the pizza, the herby and salty meatballs were balanced well with the acidity of the tomato sauce, and the bleu cheese offered a unique twist. The hallmark of any good pizza is the crust, and Pizzeoli leaves no doubt as to what they are trying to accomplish: on the menu is a graphic which reads "Charred and flimsy, it's the Pizzeoli way." That is exactly how the crust came out, with nice development of gluten on the edges, making it a joy to chew on with every slice. Finally we split some of Hank's turtle cheesecake for dessert, and enjoyed a fruitful conversation. Service was eager and helpful, especially given how busy it was while we were dining. Overall it was an enjoyable time.

This place doesn't make all the top list in Yelp by accident! Love this gem of a restaurant right in my neighborhood serving some of the best pizza and wings! I know together those sins like your local dive bar but my goodness, these will have you drooling for more even after stuffing your face! The ButterBird is my go to zaaa and the Pineapple Honey Habanero Wings... goodness! So delicious! I will say the Mayfair wings are quite nice as well and the Arancini you gotta try! If there's ever a dessert pizza, a must but the Maple Glazed Cinnamon Knots are through the roof! Staff always great with Daniel behind the bar concocting the best cocktails, delicious espresso martinis! While, Josh is a master of fire in the kitchen manning the 800 degree wood fired oven! I love Pizzeoli!

The pizza here was top notch and the flavors were on point. I love the addition of the smoked gouda on the pie and the crust had the perfect amount of yeastiness to it. The pizza was on the floppier side but I didn't mind it. The service was very friendly and the ingredients all tasted high quality. I liked the simplicity of the sauce. I'll definitely be back!

This pizza place has a great environment. The vibe is so romantic and looks like something out of a Latin movie! Our server, Molly, was amazing and she was so nice and an amazing waitress. We ordered 3 pizzas and garlic knots. The garlic knots are like little spice balls but there not to spice. We ordered a margarita a pepper peddler and the Napoli all of them were amazing and yummy.
