Whitestone Italian With Wood Fired Pizza

Wood fired pizza has company at Villaggio Ristorante Italian Bistro on 14th Road in Queens. The menu moves through Italian classics with a wine selection alongside, leaving you plenty to consider beyond a pie. Bring an appetite for a meal that can move from the grill to something sweet.

Tender grilled calamari and broccoli rabe are part of the lineup, while pork chops come paired with crispy roasted potatoes. A classic affogato handles the finish, the dessert choice for the table still thinking about coffee.

The atmosphere is cozy, and the dining room has the space for group gatherings and family events. A quiet dinner fits here too, with the room accommodating a celebration as readily as a smaller meal.

Doors open daily at noon and close at 9 PM Sunday through Thursday, with Friday and Saturday running until 10 PM.
