Uncle Tony’s Pizza and Pasta

I came in for an Italian grinder and it was AMAZING. The bread is probably some of the best I’ve ever had. Great portion size. Yummy meats. Great dressing. Oh man, sandwich heaven. Service was friendly, but not all that bright. No big deal. All in all, excited to go back!

The worst Fettuccine Alfredo I have ever tried. Service good, restaurant is clean. Over all the food isn’t bad but that one dish was horrible. Prices are competitive

No-​frills Italian joint with good food, large portions, and fast service. Bread, soup, salad, entrée, and dessert in 45 minutes (if you like eating fast) or you can hang out for 3 hours and no one will mind.
One of the ways I get a feel for a restaurant is by checking out who else is eating there. It has been my experience, for example, that a good Japanese restaurant is more likely to attract Japanese diners. Whenever I’m in Uncle Tony’s, there are always a number of Italian families there. Just in case that sounds stereotypical (or obnoxious) my family is also Italian and my husband has been eating at Uncle Tony’s since childhood. They’re my mother-in-law’s favorite restaurant!
This was the first time we’ve gone to this location, we are usually in Cranston. The service was phenomenal, the restaurant was very clean, and the food was great as always. I recommend the Plumpy, but its all delish.

I’ll start out by saying if you’re looking for fancy schmancy… this is not the place to go. Get it to go. The bread they serve while you wait is fresh and soft and it’s especially good when you can dunk it in gravy. The meatballs are decent I usually just get one meat ball with extra sauce. My friend makes fun of me because he is like who gets just one meatball. Anywho I usually stick to their salads. I’ve had their ceasar, greek, and Mediterranean salad and all are really good. They are also pretty generous with their portions as well.

Here’s a good place to go when you want simple, tasty, Italian classics. Food is pretty good & has that «homemade» feel to it.
Staff is very friendly & servers are attentive.
I hear they have great desserts too, I’ve just never tried it.
Prices are reasonable, as are the portion sizes. Lunch, to me, is the best value. I usually get a personal sized pizza w/​sausage & ricotta… yum!

Friendly service and good food! I stopped here for the first time tonight and was very happy. The spinach lie was great. The price was reasonable too.

My chicken Alfredo was so bland it was borderline gross and my husbands stuffed pepper still had the sticker on it. Need I say more?

I love the pizza and chicken parm. The food has lots of flavor and I have never had any complaints. I have been going to this location as well as the Cranston location for years. Very good.

Don’t do it.
We gave it a shot. This will be the first as well as the last. We got a pizza, burger, french fries, stuffies. Bland, bland, as well as bland. Nothing was seasoned. On the positive it was inexpensive.
Should have look at Unilocal,before going in.

I stopped in for a chicken parm sandwich to go. It was good but I’m still looking for something great. Uncle Tony’s in NP was our regular when I was a kid. I’m glad they’re still around. But I’d need a little more research to decide how close they are to the old days.

The service was nice and quick, but the food was not the best quality. I hope to try it again, thinking maybe I just caught them on a bad day. I tried the pizza, which was a little burnt and lacked flavor. I’ll try something else next time.

I sure do love me some Uncle Tony’s so I was pretty pumped when this one opened so close to my house. To preface though, I only ever order two things from here: pizza and a Plumpy. In the past I have tried their entrees and just did not enjoy them, so I stick with what I know will be good here. Their Plumpy’s are a-​maz-​ing. It’s definitely my favorite spinach pie (plus it has pepperoni and olives and cheese) in the state. And when you order their pizza, you have to order it well-​done or it’ll be a little on the doughy side. Not crazy about their wooden booths, they seem to have them at every Uncle Tony’s and they just aren’t that comfortable.

I have been to another one of their locations before and thought it was pretty good so was happy to try the one they opened five miles away from me. The place is pretty big they have a good sized area for take out and a large seating area. We were greeted and seated quickly. They brought us some delicious soft warm bread which we inhaled it was so good. We were not too hungry so we just ordered a large cheese and pepperoni pizza. It came out fairly quickly. The pizza was good. The sauce was tangy and the pepperoni those little cute ones that curl up and the oil sits in. My only complaint is that it needed to be cooked
More. I will ask for it well done next
Time and that is not really a big deal since I’m sure they would rather cook it again the. Have to throw out a dark one. I look forward to trying other things there too.

Tried to get lunch here around noon but wasn’t seated. A large party was being taken care of ahead of us and my party and the party next to us hadn’t even been considered or asked how many people were sitting. After waiting 10 minutes with nobody coming to ask us if we wanted to sit we walked out. The place was basically empty and I saw about 3 waitresses and no hostess. I prefer the Newport ave. location. Even when its too busy you’re at least acknowledged.

Not impressed and boy was I looking forward to the infamous Uncle Tony’s Pizza.
As a child I remember having their pizza all the time and it was the best thing in the world. And moving to an area with Uncle Tony’s just being down the street I was so happy and looking forward to it.
The place is rather small but the employees were really nice and helpful, but when receiving my pizza I wasn’t impressed with the taste. I’ve had better pizza in my lifetime. The cheese on the pizza was the best part of the whole pizza. The crust was just like a typical crust and the pizza dough was just doughy with no good flavor.
Me and my fiancé got a large pizza half mushroom and half pepperoni, and needless to say we didn’t enjoy it. I spent 25.00 on a pizza that I didn’t like at all. I won’t never return to this Uncle Tony’s. Im only giving a nice star rating because of the customer service. Otherwise try another pizza place.

I’ll preface by saying this review is solely based on a take out order for pizza. I have always loved Uncle Tony’s pizza specifically the location in East Prov. Growing up their pizza has been one of my favorites, so I had pretty high hopes trying this new location.
You would think that the pizza would be consistent from location to location, but sadly this wasn’t the case. From the pepperoni on it to the crispyness of the crust, this locations pizza was definitely not the same as what I’m used to from Uncle Tony’s. Even the pizza itself seemed a little doughy. It definitely wasn’t the worst pizza I’ve had but it was very underwhelming and flavor wise disappointing, especially for the price!
The unfortunate lesson learned here is that this location couldn’t live up to the deliciousness of Uncle Tony’s that I have been used to. I most likely won’t be ordering from here anymore and I ultimately hope they can change it up and figure out how to produce the same pizza that the one in EP has consistently been dishing out for so many years.

We just happened to be in the area and decided to stop in for pizza. It was on a weeknight but the place was steady. Our server was nice, and she gave us bread n butter right away. We tried the calamari which was ok. But we really enjoyed our pizza. It was good and we had no major complaints.

I don’t know what the problem is with some of the poor reviews. .either we are going at a very good time or they are going at a very bad time. We have been to this Uncle Tony’s at least twoce, possibly three times since they opened… granted it’s no Old Canteen but folks its a family restaurant!!! When one goes to a family restaurant in my opinion one shouldn’t expect tons of atmosphere! yes the lighting is bright and its NOT quiet but it’s also not horrendously noisy! As far as the food… I love the eggplant sandwich and the lasagna that my husband and a friend of ours had was delicious. this last time I had the scallops and they cooked them just the way I had asked… not much butter and breadcrumbs and lots of lemon. No complaints there!!! Uncle Tony’s doesn’t have a full bar however the beer selection is great!
the pizzas are also very good. I knkw we will be going back again and for those that had a problem, perhaps you may want to give it another try!

I Don’t Understand
I don’t really get this place. They took over an old restaurant and ripped out the bar. The building looks nice but they had a full bar and removed it. Why?
As for the food, it’s a decent pizza place with no atmosphere. People packed this place the first few weeks it opened and then I think people are figuring out that the place is just lame.
Just get takeout, but why even bother, goto Tommy’s on chalkstone or The Big Cheese in Cranston. Much better pizza places.
Wanted to like it, sorry no dice.
Thanks

We went there dinner time for my mom birthday. our meals are good. We ate enjoy our meals, no issue with services. Just little bit slow cuz that time really busy. We will come back some day. We are glad see this building in business instead of empty since JD’s restaurant close down.
