Family Pizzeria & Restaurant

Sausage and Pepperoni good pie. Had the veal too all good. My son and I were staying at a local hotel and wanted food to go. Kind of disappointed when I asked for some paper plates and a plastic fork and knife the gal just said "no". How about a little love for your out of town guests!

Honestly, the best family Italian resteraunt in Spfld! The hosts, Yolanda, Ralfie and Jerry are welcoming, sincere and do one hell of a job making u feel at home. Veal Saltimboca is the best ever! The veal Marsala is to die for and if there's something not on their menu, just ask and you'll get it. Awesome spot!

Heavy Bias, But Genuinely Delicious!  A True FAMILY Restaurant!

Let me start off by saying that I worked at Family Pizzeria for about two and a half years while in high school.  I still go back there whenever I'm visiting my parents and get a craving for pizza in Springfield.  

I know from experience that the key to a great pizza is the dough, and the sauce.  

The great thing about the pizza at Family is that the crust is crunchy.  It's just thick enough to not give way when piled high with toppings.  Not too thick, not too thin.  They use a stone bottom oven that toasts it up nicely, and take great care in making sure the pizza cooks to perfection, and without any giant bubbles or areas that are missing cheese.

The old location on Dickinson St. across from the fire station was one of my childhood favorites, even before I landed a job there.  The location has changed, but the quality and friendly atmosphere is exactly the same!

5 stars all the way!
