Best italian restaurant in Williston Park, New York (NY) 2024

Frantoni’s Pizzeria & Restaurant is a small place with informal dining. Most customers come for takeout or slices which they buy from the counter and sit themselves at the bare top tables. The place offer various sodas, about four different beers, and one white and one red wine by the glass. In the time we were there (Saturday 19:30,) we did not see table service. You have to get up and retrieve your order from the counter when the food is ready. We ordered a Grandma pie, two different bottles of beers, and ate with plastic utensils and paper plates. The service was friendly. As to the food; the Grandma pie was ok; not great; it lacked crispness (pizza pan insufficiently oiled?.) We asked that they cook the pie some more to achieve the crispness of the topical Grandma Pizza, but as son as it cooled down a little, it went limp again. The tomato taste of the pizza lacked the typical acidity of the tomatoes of San Marzano (I do not know which tomatoes they use.) The mozzarella was mild, and the thickness of the dough was as a Grandma pie should be. Overall, if you were to close your eyes while eating the pizza, it could pass for a regular NY style pizza, you could fold the slice and eat it!. We will not come back to this pizzeria for Grandma pizza, but for a regular slice and the friendly counter service. ~Enrique
