Pizza Roundup: Tony & Nello’s Southern Italian Cuisine

To my fellow pizza lovers! I bring to you a post from Tierra Verde, Florida.

Tony & Nello’s is more of a Italian place (with really, REALLY good pizza) rather than just a pizza place.

The décor makes the place feel a bit fancy. We only went for lunch and jeans were fine. There was cloth table cloths, but they had paper on top…at least for lunch. I liked that the walls were painted to look like marble.

We had to get the garlic knots, and boy were we surprised when they came out with a pile of fresh garlic instead of garlic powder! These garlic rolls were smothered in olive oil, garlic and herb goodness! They were swimming in it! So good!!

The pizza was no joke either. It said large, but what we got was more like an extra large! Can anyone say leftovers?! I was surprised by how good the pizza was. The crust didn’t droop when you picked it up, it had a nice chewy crunch. And there was enough garlic olive oil left over from the garlic knots that we were able to dip our crust in it as we ate… it was awesome.

Everyone we met that worked there was nice and the restaurant was clean. Man between the garlic knots and pizza this place gets a 5 star review in my book!

See y’all next time on…

Pizza Street!!
