    Stick to the pizza, and don't get too adventurous with it either. It's a great place for pizza and beer, and they deliver late. But everything we've tried on the food menu other than pizza has been disgusting. No hyperbole. Like throw it out after a bite gross. Will we keep eating there? YES. Will we keep drinking there? ABSOLUTELY. Are those things related? Hmmm.

    New discoveries! Cheesesteak pizza!! Pulled Pork Pizza!!! Man if that ain't Philly I don't know what else is...Well I guess water ice pizza, but the logistics of that is just mind boggling.
    Kid #1: Mommy... How does the ice stay on the pizza when its hot cheese?
    Kid #2: Dummy, its because the ice is water ice so the water doesn't dry out right away!
    Mother: No its because the beer garden that is owned by Pinocchio has magical aura which doesn't allow the ice to melt.
    Father: BEER!!...hic!...I want mooorrre beeeer....hic!...Why do you close your eyes when we make LOVE?!...hic!

    Yes but Pinnochios is a great pizza joint, and still remains the best in the area with cheap beer, pizza, and a great atmosphere for everyone!

    There is not much more to say about this place except I have never been to a place where I can have the best piece of pizza, the most delicious piece of pie, the tastiest plate of wings (cooked my very favorite way "15 mins" (even if it throws off the count;)) the most amazing beers from every brewery imaginable and of course the most friendly, inviting, enjoyable staff we have ever met! We are new to the area and the entire staff of Pinnochio's has not only welcomed us but has made is feel apart of their family! Thank you so much Ted, Dan, Jerry, Tim, Alex and the rest of the team!

    Wow, sometimes the most interesting journeys start in your own backyard. Pinnocchio's Restaurant was a great find going out to eat on a whim, and I'll be sure to go back and take advantage of the great food and in house beer selection.

    Atmosphere - There are three areas which you can walk in. The beer garden (On the side) has hundreds of craft beers you can purchase individiually in a make your own six pack. The take out area (first door), allows you to grab some quick food on the go if you call ahead to order. We actually dined in (second door), and were treated to a standard dining area with tile floors and wooden booths. The booth felt quite cozy, but was a bit distracted by the TV's in there. A little small if you're trying to watch while dining. No matter, wasn't much on TV anyway.

    Waitstaff - Our waitress was more of the 'experienced' variety. She was nice and friendly, but the food was brought out slow overall. I also tried to select three different beer choices, all of which were 'kicked' off of the draft. Was a little dissapointed in the speed of bringing things out, and had to leave to get my car from the meter before finishing our main dish.

    Food - WOW, what a meal. They brought out fresh cheese bread sticks right off the bat. Flaky, like something you would get at home, but for no charge, way better then white bread. My wife had Italian wedding soup, I had to try the Buffalo Chicken Soup. Both were delicious and as advertised, had great flavor. We also ordered a round of pretzel bread sticks, which were also great. Pretzels were fresh baked, and with brown mustard and beer cheddar sauce, yum. By far the highlight was the Chicken Parm pizza. OMG, one of the top five pies I've ever had anywhere (and how can you not like pizza)... perfect flaky and crunchy crust, think tomato sauce, plenty of cheese, with more sprinkled on top. I may go back this weekend to get a pie before the football game.

    Intangibles - A beer rep was there with a company giving out free samples, which was awesome. You know what was more awesome, our waitress who didn't have the beer's earlier, brought out a sample pumpkin for me to try as well. TWO FREE BEER SAMPLES, AYFKM! One downer about this place though is the parking situation... good luck is all I can say. Very small lot with next to no side street parking. Worth the walk on a crisp fall night, but when dreary weather hits, may want to go with someone who can circle the block if you're picking up an order.

    Overall - I will totally head back to Pinnochio's The food was fantastic, the beer selection was amazing, and the service, well, it can only get better. Worthwhile place for any type of diner, if you're coming from out of the area though, make sure to allow for some time to find parking.

    First the layout of the place. There is a bar/dining area,off to the left is a kitchen, in front of that is a enclosed area with a separate entrance for take out and around back is the beer garden.I sat at the bar and had a few beers and ordered a mini pizza and a small antipasto to go.I have to say I have never seen so many employees in a place of this size. As I sat at the bar I saw dozens of pizzas going right by me on their way to the dining area. They looked awesome, crust perfectly browned, some I could see the cheese bubbling.So when I got my order back to the hotel room I was shocked, the pizza was not cooked, the crust had no color and the cheese was barely melted,on top of each slice was one scared little piece of pepperoni  .I was very hungry and ate two slices and it was so bad I threw the other two away.The salad was good so at least I was full.
    I dont know what to say,everyone was ordering large pies,I might have been the only mini of the night so the kitchen said lets really screw this one up.
    Words to the wise, if you have a take out order check every part of it carefully before you leave  , my mistake.

    Everything- service, atmosphere, cleanliness and quality of the food were abysmal. I think they do a brisk takeout business because of how depressing the dining area is. The large variety of cold beer to go will most likely keep them in business for many more years, but diners who return should demand an upgrade of the booths, friendlier service, a degreasing of all the surfaces and a few minutes spent wiping the bugs and dirt off the window sills.
    It was just really, really bad.

    Pinocchio's is your average, local pizza joint. Nothing fancy on the menu, but the pizza is always satisfying and made fresh in house. I gave Pinocchio's 5 stars because their beer garden. Definitely THE BEST place to find take out craft beers in the Media area. They stock over 850 bottles for take away and always have at least 20 beers on tap to enjoy in the beer garden or restaurant. If you're a beer lover and haven't been here yet, you're missing out!

    I am a fan of both their pizza and beer selection. This place is awesome to sample and taste different beers. The beer prices are a bit high, you can get better prices at Wegmens. But, its local and it is still better to sample here then sample by means of purchasing cases.

    The pizza is boardwalk style, tasty, and affordable. Do not order their pizza with spinach, broccoli, or tomato unless you like frozen spinach or broccoli and flavorless tomatoes. After that all other toppings I have had were good (mushrooms, peppers, onions, pepperoni...)

    You will not go wrong with their cheese steaks or fries. After that their food is the run of the mill, nothing worth commenting on.

    The place is affordable if you don't order the hooch.

    The pizza is pretty dang good, but my review is more on what is attached to the restaurant........Pinocchio's Beer Garden! So many brands and styles of beers, ya practically drool as you walk through the door! I believe if I recall correctly there is 350 brands of beer! My favorite is the Sea Dog Blueberry Beer from Baltimore,ME so far, but there are so many to go through!  I would totally give a 5 star for food and beer selection, but the one downside is parking...booohissss it suckssssss. :(

    Excellent pizza place. Great staff, and truly incredible sicilian pies. Calzones are also very good, as are appetizers samplers. Parking isnt ideal so we normally order and have them deliver. It shames all of the competition around here. They are on point with their delivery times, price is great, and they have an awesome beer selection. In fact, the beer place is worth going to just to find fun, obscure brews. Great place.

    All you can eat pizza! Need I say more. The pizza is average but the beer garden is really one of a kind in the area, and quite reasonable.

    We have had large groups here before and they are always very accommodating. It's media so parking can be a pain but the dedicated lot does really help.

    Yes, the decor is straight out of 1971.  

    Yes, the pizza is maybe slightly above average at its best.  

    But the all you can eat deal is a good one, and they will satisfy anyone who's a beer snob.  

    Basically, this place has been in business for a long time for a reason.  Consistently above average beats hit or miss any day of the week.

    Really Quick:

    Food:
    Very good pizza and typical pizza restaurant items (wings, calzones, anything fried, etc.)
    Their pizza is sometimes undercooked, though.

    Lots and lots of beer options. Bottles can get expensive, but they often have decent specials/features on draft (or even bottles from "featured" breweries).

    Service varies from very good to extremely poor, with some servers giving the impression they're doing you a favor every time they choose to stop at your table.

    Parking is atrocious but if you're willing park a bit away and walk, it's not a big deal.

    I was at the beer garden which I was happy to stumble upon. A bit pricey but a great selection. I like to try different beers and they've got 'em all. You can mix your own six packs. I'll be going back for that and while I'm there I may grab a pizza.

    I really like Pinocchio's.  Their pizza is one of the best in the immediate area.  The food is good.  It is a comfortable atmosphere to take children, but also to have a good beer.  Their taps are constantly rotating and they are passionate about craft beer.  The service is friendly and the ownership seems to be very appreciative of their customers.  My only complaint is that they do not employ a bartender although they have a full-service bar.  It usually takes a few minutes to get a beer if just going to sit at the bar to watch a game.  Any server can take your beer order, but this area of the restaurant seems to be an afterthought.  

    The beer garden that they run right nextdoor offers an awesome to-go bottle and draft selection as well.

    One of the most notable pizza places in the Del Co. area it has been there forever. As other reviews have said awesome beer selection and knowledgeable staff.

    We had the buffalo chicken as well as just a pepperoni pie. They were pretty good it seems like they put quite a bit of effort into where their toppings come from. Their pepperoni has a very rich and distinct taste.

    They are also great with kids, they have a good menu for them that has a broad range of choices. They give out crayons and pizza dough for the kids to play with. The place was full and didn't have one unhappy child.

    SLOW inattentive service, dive-y ambience, awful pizza (we got slices), and salad was iceberg lettuce with mayo trying to pass for blue cheese dressing. YUK. Never again. Completely underwhelmed.

    As a resident of Media for the last few years, you'd be crazy to not make Pinocchio's a regular spot. The pizza is spot on, and it's one of the few places in the area that deliver throughout Media. The take-out staff is probably some of the busiest, yet friendliest, you'll find in their position.

    There are some glaring issues that could be made to improve the restaurant even better. The in-house seating is terribly cramped. I'm a tall gentleman, and I can't fit in any of the booths. Parking is a nightmare in the small lot. My service experience, when sitting at the bar during lunch, was less than extraordinary. I felt invisible to the staff, since I wasn't a lunch regular.

    That said, the take out and delivery staff has always been friendly and helpful with getting my food on time (or early), and with great results. The one complaint I'd have is with the delivery. It's not free (2.50 charge), and while the delivery is usually fast, the pizza has been coming in more frequently as lukewarm or undercooked.  It's gotten to the point where we either pick up from Pinocchio's, or we don't order at all.

    Still, for some great tasting pizza and steaks, you can't go wrong with picking up from Pinocchio's. If you're a beer aficionado, don't miss the beer garden next door for an amazing selection of beers. I'm not a beer drinker, but the selection makes me wish I was.

    I've been meaning to write a review of this place for a while. Now, to be fair, my reviews I write on Yelp need to be taken with a few grains of salt for the following reasons:
    1. I'm a craft beer whore
    2. I'm one of those annoying vegan types (ugh, I know, I hate myself, too)
    3. Again, I really, really like beer.

    So with that out of the way, let me tell you what I think about Pinocchio's Pizza.

    **Food- I remember going here a lot when I was little, but only recently did I return with my boyfriend one to grab some pizza. I brought my own vegan cheese (I'M SO OBNOXIOUS YES YOU CAN HATE ME) because I'm difficult, and was very excited for some pizza in my mouth. I usually am very embarrassed bringing my own cheese, even after like 7 and a half years of being a dumb vegan. But the waitress said it wouldn't be a problem to coat my pizza with this dairy mockery jawns to appease me. Holla at that!

    Oh, an a little hint for all of you pizza topping snobs: Pinocchio's has the right kind of olives for a pizza- ACTUAL GREEK OLIVES. Not that anemic, black, canned crap. I mean, you can get that if you want; it's on the toppings menu. The catch is, you need to ask for the Greek olives; they're offered as a side with the hummus plate (which I surprisingly didn't order the last time I was there, so I can't tell you how that was.

    **Service- not overtly chatty, but friendly and efficient enough. I think we went on a Friday or Saturday night and the boyf and I each ordered our own pizzas; I didn't find us waiting too long for our pizzas.

    **Beer- Sweet baby Jesus and all other holy figures. If you like, love, or are casually obsessed with excellent beer, stop wasting your time and get your booty over to this place. Not only is the selection incredible, all of the workers ACTUALLY KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT. I have walked in and said, "Give me your favourite hoppy thing," or "Give me something like this beer...." and they have always suggested something wonderful. I have never left the Beer Garden dissatisfied.

    Not that any of us law abiding PA residents ever take beer over state lines, but if I did, I now have no reason to buy beer in Delaware. All of the beer here is fresh and you can ask whatever questions you want and not feel intimidated. Oh, and did I mention that they have about a billion awesome beers on tap that you can either enjoy with your pizza OR BRING HOME IN A GROWLER?!

    **Cons: You're still buying beer in PA, so only 2 take out six packs at a time, but my liver is pretty ok with that. And the parking lot there sucks. But there's street parking on Baltimore Pike (for the brave), on Gayley Street (for the less brave but still parallel parking able), and there is a lot on Gayley and State Streets (for those of us who still, after a half a decade or more of driving, cannot parallel park a compact car). The lot is metered, but is free after 5 (for sure)  and I THINK on weekends, but don't go sending me your parking tickets if I'm wrong.

    I don't understand this place.  Right about the same time they got a beer garden put in next door, with a fantastic selection of (overpriced) beer and a knowledgable staff who always let you try before you buy, their pizza quality started going downhill.  We used to consistently get good pizza here, now we consistently get mediocre pizza, and sometimes the pizza is just bad.  Lately, I've been going to Pinocchio's for beer, and going elsewhere for pizza.  Maybe that's what they wanted.

    As a DELCO native I have to stand behind Pinocchio's. For one, they deliver to my house. Secondly, I have been buying beer from their take out beer store since I was 21. AND NOW they have an AMAZING import and craft beer selection STORE that is totally reasonably priced in Delaware County. It's like a mirage with pizza that doesn't suck. The food is delicious for a local pizza place and anyone with outlandish expectations should just go guzzle some 10.5 abv's and shuttup. The pizza and chickensteaks are superb.

    Incredible beer selection.

    If you ever felt like a kid in a candy store, then you'll understand how I felt.  They have a refrigerated wall that is stocked to the gills with craft beer.  I thought the prices for the beer were very good considering the very expansive selection that they had.  I ended up getting two gueuzes since I don't see them around much.  I talked with the guy behind the counter who was very helpful and told me about all the gueuzes that they carried.

    If I lived in that neighborhood, I would be there all the time.  Maybe I can convince some of my suburban friends to pick me up some goodies from here when they are headed into philly.

    Wow, I am shocked that Pinocchio's got such scathing reviews. I am sorry that some of you folks have had crummy service and cold food. I will admit that sometimes the service is less than perfect, but generally I can't complain. And how can you give a bad review to a place who's marquee says "Possibly the best cheesesteaks around". The one thing that I can complain about is the parking lot, which holds about 10 cars and you have to back out of the lot because it is too small to turn around in. But that's all part of the charm.

    The atmosphere is kind of like a 50's diner with wood paneled booths and complete with wood carved pictures depicting the story of Pinocchio. There is plenty of seating in the main dining area, where the bar is located, and there is additional seating in the rear of the restaurant (this is my least favorite section to sit in).

    I always order the onion rings, they are the best around. The fries are pretty good too. The pizza is delicious, a thinner crust and the sauce is just right. I also enjoy the white pizza and the Greek Goddess. I still have yet to have the Sicilian pie. The desserts are standard diner fare, nothing to write home about.

    Now, let me tell you about the Beer Garden.  They have a ridiculous amount of mix and match take out beer (800 choices, if memory serves me correct) and it's all situated in a fairly small space.  They sell everything from growlers to beer from all over the world.  The staff is pretty helpful too.  Do not skip the Beer Garden when you visit Pinocchios.

    Pizza - 4 stars
    Service - 3 stars

    Delco pizza is generally terrible, but Pinocchios's definitely gets it right. The crust is thin, the sauce isn't too sweet, just the right amount of cheese. My only complaint is that most of the specialty pizza's come with red sauce on them, but its not listed in the toppings- it would be nice if it were, because the red sauce detracts a bit from some of the toppings on the specialty pizzas.

    The beer selection is great, probably the best in the area.

    The service was a bit lack luster. There were two servers on, we seemed to have the slower of the two. The other server was on top of things and really helpful, but ours was just ok. It's a pizza shop, I'm not expecting the server to crumb my table or anything, but it would be nice if she had checked in after dropping the food  off. No one likes to be left thirsty, and wishing they has more oregano, etc.

    That being said, it was altogether a positive experience. And the pizza and beer selection are tops.

    I ate at this establishment with my companion.  She ordered a turkey sandwich with mayo and I ordered a mushroom cheesesteak grinder.  Also ordered a small pizza mostly to go.  I ordered a draft Oktoberfest beer while she ordered a Diet Coke with lemon.  There were breadsticks brought out, however they were completely cold, without dipping sauce and virtually inedible- FAIL 1.  The soda was brought out without lemon that was requested-FAIL 2.  Turkey sandwich was brought out without mayo that was requested-FAIL 3.  She noticed a live, crawling, small bug on the plate-BIG FAIL-4.  

    Waitress who did not have a very helpful disposition was nowhere to be found.  Therefore we sought another waitress who took the plate away and stated they will make another sandwich-my companion declined the offer.  Then the inattentive waitress finally came to the table, asked if everything was OK.  We explained to her there was a bug found on the plate, she said nothing, no apology, and walked away.  Then she disappeared without an apology-FAIL 5.  Then she came back after at least 5 minutes with new breadsticks that were hot but terrible and without any dipping sauce-FAIL 6.  When she returned she asked if everything was ok- we said we wanted to see the manager.  She then turned around talked to the manager for a minute or two, then nothing happened for at least another 5 minutes.   The manager finally came to our table and was unfazed about his establishment having a live bug on a dinner plate (he said it was a little lettuce bug).  We told him we never knew of such a bug and NEVER experienced a bug in or around our food.  The manager then defended his establishment about passing 100% Department of Health tests, etc.  I also explained that the waitress failed about the other things that were requested and was completely unapologetic.  He was frustrated and then stated the tab was on the house.  We accepted the offer.  Finally to top off this disappointing experience, the clueless waitress came by and asked us where the tab was.  I explained to her that the tab was taken care of by the manager.  She look puzzled and walked away in amazement.  A fun indeed for all!

    I could never tell a lie while reviewing Pinocchio's!  :-)  

    This is an interesting place.  First let's talk about the atmosphere.  If you're old enough to remember the fifties you'll feel right at home.  The place is in serious need of a facelift.  On the other hand, some folks say they like it that way.

    There is a small bar with about six seats, but you're not coming here for the bar scene.  Folks at the bar are waiting for takeout or enjoying some amazing and unusual drafts.  More about the beer later.

    Now for the menu- This is your typical pizza place, pizza, hoagies, pasta, burgers, fries, etc., etc.  Everything is decent but nothing really stands out.  I know everyone has strong preferences regarding pizza.  Here you will find it thin.  Also they do a nice job of keeping pizzas with meat from being too greasy.  Quite a few folks say the fried food is above average.  I agree.

    The service is adequate.  The wait staff is friendly for sure but sometimes it feels a little slow.  It's especially noticeable when the restaurant is only partially full.  Note to the owner; you need to work on this!

    Now for the beer.  Oh the beer!  This is beer heaven in Media.  Ask for the draft list and you'll see about a dozen with nice informative descriptions.  They change often and are really unusual.  Ninety nine percent of folks will see beers they have never even heard of.  If you don't believe me, forget the food on your first visit and try a draft at that tiny bar.  Drop me a note here in Yelp.

    But wait, there's more!  Pinocchio's has the Beer Garden.  That's their name for their takeout selection.  Hundreds and hundreds of choices.  Easily the biggest selection in the Western burbs.

    After some consideration I'm going to go with three stars overall.  If you're going just for the beer you'll probably give them a 10!

    This place has been in Media FOREVER, but only recently has it gone and made something special out of itself.  Forget the food, the food is crap, but it's that lovable diner quality crap that you like to eat with a beer.  And BEER is what I'm here to talk about.

    They have installed a beer garden with over 700 craft beers from all over the world.  European, Asian, Domestic, Craft, Coors and more.  It's Amazing with a capital A.  What's more the price per bottle isn't going to break the bank.

    This has become my new favorite hangout, sitting at the tiny bar, watching a baseball game and swilling grade A beer goodness.  You can go to the beer garden, pick out your bottles and then tell the waitress who will bring it to you at the bar/tables.  Prices are low low low.

    If your hungry and have to order food, they have a lot of it, just don't be surprised that it's essentially junk food.  Lots of stuff is frozen but I've found a few acceptable gems on the menu.

    Onion Rings - hand dipped, crunchy and big
    Zorba Steak Grinder - steak with onions, green peppers, provolone and special sauce.
    Cheese cake - only eat this frozen cake with coffee stout

    Pinocchio's is good! It's a pizza place with eat in- if you like the pizza/hoagies/bar food in this area- you know exactly what to expect.

    Something that makes this place a little more unique is their beer selection and beer garden. I wasn't able to participate in either but I'm looking forward to the day that I'm done making a baby.

    The waitstaff is great in Pin's. I was with my mom, sister and twin infant niece/nephew and they were super nice and accommodating.

    I would totally give this 5 stars but growing up in NJ - nothing beats boardwalk pizza!

      Having moved from NJ 4 years ago, I am still appalled that PA controls the liquor stores here.... Who doesn't love beer with thier pizza?  Well, Pinnochio's sealed Media as my "home away from NJ will always be my home".  The pizza is great  dine in or takeout.  They have an unbelievable selection of take out beer including microbrews as far as the eye can see - or the refrigerator can hold.  Being a fan of Woodchuck, I was more than ecstatic to find it available here for take out with my yummy Philly Cheesesteak Pizza.

      My mom grew up in DelCo and had been going here since she was a little girl - If I had to land anywhere in PA, I'm glad I came to Media where Pinnochio's is still thriving.

    I was strangely craving buffalo chicken pizza and wings yesterday. I was told that Pinnochio's is the best place in my area to satisfy this urge to eat and get fat.

    WARNING: The wings are ON FIRE. If you can't deal with hot, ask for mild. It WILL numb your taste buds for the rest of the meal. (Ask my boyfriend who could not finish his share of the pizza afterwards.)

    The pizza is thin-crust. Although I usually hate thin-crust pizza, the thin-crust was not SOOO thin that I minded. Furthermore, I was impressed by the place's ability to balance the proportion between chicken, pizza, and buffalo sauce. Some prior bad experiences with buffalo chicken pizza taught me that badly done buffalo chicken pizza = sauce dripping all over the place. There was no such mess - the sauce stayed where it should always stay - on the pizza.

    Although there is a dining area that is usually sparsely populated by a few young diners, the service is non-existent. What do the servers do if there so few patrons? Where do they go? I have no idea - it was impossible to get a server's attention until they come to your table with the bill.

    I grew up in town and going to pinocchio's brings back a lot of great memories. Now, I tend to go there with my meager wages clutched in my hand when i know I'm craving massive amounts of pizza and soda for one price. Yeah, the slices are touch and go, but you know another one is on the way. It's all you can eat...what do you expect??

    The staff is really kind and attentive and the beers are cheap and cold. They also have a pretty good cheesesteak.

    Again, pizza is a highly subjective area so I will try to stick to the facts.

    Big thin oven baked pizza.  Some refer to this style as boardwalk pizza, others call it cardboard pizza.  For this genre, it is pretty good.  Very family friendly.

    Great place for bringing the kids after a game.  Most parents will find something that they will find acceptable.  And they have beer!

    Pinocchio's is a staple in Media. With a large menu, long hours and a full bar, it is difficult not to find something to satisfy. It is the place that you know is always there, always open...almost like being home. The Greek salad with their house dressing is the best...though just an order of raw onions and feta cheese with the house dressing is worth dreaming about. Thursday night is Fiesta night featuring $2.00 margaritas and a special menu of Mexican inspired foods. They try...and often it works. The pizza is average, but they make a lot of it so something must be working.

    I love this place..been going there my entire life pretty much. It used to be the place to go for little league with the whole team, then in high school I would always go with my team for whaich ever sport I was playing that was in season. Once I was in college whenever I was home we would end up here after the bars for some much needed food. This past November we came here after our 10 year Penncrest reunion and it was crazy flash backs sitting in the booths with friends from high school 10 years later. I go out to my parents often for dinner and many times grab a pizza from here.  Cheese steaks are really good and I actually really like the pizza. Good beer selection as well.

    I was a pizza delivery girl for Pinocchio's in high school, so it will always have a special place in my heart. The pizza is nothing special, but it makes great late night food-- when everything else in the area has closed, Pinocchio's stays open until 1:30am, and that is awesome. They also have take-out beer.

    Okay, I'll be totally honest. It's basically not great sober, but it's the best place in the world after a long night of drinking.

    Plus, they've been in business for over 50 years... They must be doing something right!

    I miss you Pinocchio's!  It's cheesy, gooey, and floppy, but the pizza tastes GOOD.  Do you deliver to California?  

    The pizza is thin (but not crispy thin) and sometimes you have to slurp to eat your slice (from the floppiness and gooiness).  There aren't too many pieces of pizza that I've had to slurp.  But that's a good thing 'cause it makes it more fun!

    Sure, the orange, plasticky booths and wooden tables could probably use a make-over, but the setting works for them.  With little kiddies at this family restaurant, that set up is way more practical than anything else could be.

    i'm a snob.
    I'm quite particular about my food.
    Like, for instance, I demand my food be edible.
    While Pinocchio's food will never be mistaken for human food, they do have two things going for them:

    A) a RIDICULOUS selection of take-out beer

    -and-

    B) after 9pm, there's nothing else open in a 15 mile radius. So, when you're deciding between this & a beef stick from Wawa's, I'll take my chances with Pinocchio's
