Food was absolutely delicious. Service was good for a busy night. Update 4/12/25: the food is still delicious! This has become a go to spot for a quick slice or a delicious entree.

I went in for just 2 slices of Sicilian pizza. There were none ready. I started to choose from their beautiful, ready to eat, custom slices, when the chef stepped out and asked if I would like to wait while he made a fresh Sicilian pie. I said absolutely will wait. That was a very cool thing for him to do, especially as I have never been in their establishment before. My wife enjoyed her Sicilian slices and I was happy. Thanks alot to Palumbo's! Joe

This was the first time that I ate in the dining room and I was very surprised by how great everything was. I had the pizziola with chicken and my friend had eggplant parmesan with vodka sauce. The service was amazing and and will definitely be going back.

Fantastic place. The dough they use in their pizza feels like I'm biting into a cloud and it has a nice taste, but it doesn't overpower the rest of the pizza - the cheese and sauce are flavorful. I plan on making this my spot for when I'm in the area and I think you should try it too.
