best take out chicken and jojo's around. The pizza is totally different than what we can get in Florida. We used to go to the one in the valley, but sadly it has closed up.

We enjoyed a great salad and 2 yummy pizzas from the outdoor seating. The outdoor benches do need some work as pretty splintered. No real ambiance to outdoor seating given proximity of road and cover provided by an outdoor garage tent. Service was friendly & attentive.

This is still by far the best pizza anywhere in this area of Ohio! Grew up eating there pizza, actually as a child it was the first pizza I ever even liked, we have moved from Ohio, but one of the only things we miss is Guiseppe's pizza, other being family. If you ever want great pizza, this is the place to go!!!

Located in Akron's North Hill, an area once known a strong Italian neighbourhood, this family owned restaurant sits on the corner of a busy street. It would be easy to drive by and not think about stopping unless you knew better. They have off street parking in the back. Although we have lived in the area for 35+ years, we had never been here. We went with friends who took their kids here and it is still a big favourite of all of them. We were there late on a Monday, two of our group had the spaghetti and meatball special (I think it was $8.95) which included a salad (lettuce, sliced beets and thinly sliced tomatoes - big helping of shredded cheese was extra) and bread. I had cheese ravioli with homemade sauce. Nothing to rave about, but it was certainly good enough for what I wanted that night. I asked for balsamic dressing (on the side) I received balsamic vinegar. I had been forewarned by the waitress that it was not a vinaigrette, but wasn't expecting that. Order one of their regular dressings! My husband enjoyed his chicken pomodoro. A half split of a weak Chianti was $7.50. It accompanied the ravioli just fine. I understand there are huge crowds for their fish fries during lent. Have no t been. I would probably return.

The people were very friendly but the Italian food was just average. Salads were just iceberg lettuce and cheese versus some healthy mixed greens and additional vegetables. The lasagna and sauce were average - nothing to rave about or say must come here. We did not like the meatballs but that could be just personal preference. They were a bit hard and dry. Perhaps this is better as a pizza place??
