What diners say — our read

Whatever the overall score says, the last stretch of reviews is the weaker one. The staff tends to be raised approvingly here, averaging 4.7 stars.

What nobody raises here is serving size — it goes unmentioned across all 23 reviews. Of the 23 rated reviews, 21 sit at four stars or better and 2 at two or below. More reviewers landed on 5 stars than any other score — 20 of 23.

The kitchen graded a B (81/100) on 1 high-priority, 2 intermediate, and 5 basic violations at its last inspection, which is roughly where the reviews sit too. That result dates from February 17, 2026. Ranked against Lake County, it is safer than 35% of the restaurants we score. What the inspector actually wrote up: food-contact surfaces clean and sanitized.

Both measures agree, which is the least complicated version of this page. Full reviews follow below in the order they were left.

    They don't pay attention or read the orders, I ordered the meat eater and I received this disgusting pineapple thing...

    Super disappointing experience this week! After a long stressful day I decided to order out instead of cook. I ordered my pizza and waited the 15minutes. Upon checking my pizza, I noticed many parts had no cheese just sauce so I asked if it could be remade with cheese covering the entire pizza. They made a bit of pushback but ultimately said okay. I sat for another 10 minutes and she brought out what I thought would be a fresh made pizza, but instead it was the same pizza now burnt around the edges with fresh partially melted mozzarella strategically placed on all the parts that had no cheese. They apparently did not feel it was worth it to provide great service and just make it fresh with more cheese. I was too tired and hungry to wait another 15 minutes. VERY DISSATISFIED WITH how that was handled.

    The antico pizza was ABSOLUTELY amazing 🍕 it was the BEST. It was like the pizza I grew up eating in Rhode island. I am very impressed. I have enjoyed every meal I have eaten at Piesanos. They also have a GREAT lunch Special.

    My brother and I were looking for a good restaurant to eat at. We stopped by here and was greeted by wonderful staff. Dayna was our waitress and she went above and beyond. Not to mention that the food was some of the best Italian food I’ve had in a very long time. I recommend this place to anyone and everyone looking for a new, well put together place for lunch or dinner. I can’t wait to come back!
