Matese Pizzeria & Ristorante

This small spot on Francis Lewis Boulevard operates largely as a popular takeout destination, though it offers tables for sit-down dining. The quality of display-case slices can vary depending on how long they have sat, making a made-to-order pie or a hot grandma slice the most reliable choice. Sit-down diners can expect fast, courteous service and huge portions at reasonable prices, all set to retro background music that gives the space a throwback neighborhood feel.
