We travel to ocean city each month from Philadelphia for a getaway weekend and our first stop is Albertino’s. The food is delicious, the staff is courteous and the price is right. Highly recommend. Try it, you’ll love it.

We were happy with the food. Until a day later we got a message from our credit card company asking if we really left a 50 percent tip and to come find out the waitress stole tip off of our card when we handed her a cash tip..

Exceptional Pizza & Service!I came across their ad in OC newspaper for Sunday all you can eat for $13! and decided to give it a try. It exceeded our expectations! The brick oven pizza was delicious with a perfect crust. We tried out Quattro Fromaggi, Margarita & Pepperoni pizza, Fettuccini, Spaghetti; for salad both Caesar & Garden salad were fresh. The Onion soup was yummy. The service was outstanding - attentive and friendly. Loved the cozy ambiance , clean bathroom, everything was great & we enjoyed our dining experience! Can’t wait to return for more! A must-visit for pizza lovers!

As a Chef for 30+ yearsI rarely dine out. That said, Albertinos has been offering an AYCE Special of Soup, Salad, Pasta, & Pizza this off-season for $12.95 that I've wanted to try. First, the French Onion was "good". The cheese was scant & just covered the croutons floating in the center of the crock. I next had their garden salad, while my daughter had a Caesar. The garden salad was a mix of romaine & mesclun lettuces, w/cherry tomato halves, julienned carrot, & a couple of thinly sliced red peppers. This was a nice, unpretentious salad- no wilted greens- sweet, ripe cherry tomatoes, crunchy carrots, & very robust & sweet red bell pepper. The Italian dressing was emulsified & was a great balance of acid from the vinegar, garlic, and a touch of sweetness. The Caesar (which I sampled from my daughter's plate at first, & later ordered to finish my meal) was excellent- homemade dressing that was creamy & noticeably enhanced w/Parmigiano Reggiano cheese over crisp Romaine w/crunchy croutons.Our next course shifted to their pizzas. They offer 6 varieties by the slice & it's prepared fresh to order. We were the first table seated just after opening so there were no "pre-made" pizzas under a heat lamp. When we shared w/ our server what we wanted to try (in our case 3 varieties) their chef prepared 3 whole pizzas to satisfy our desire to sample. The 6 varieties offered are: Cheese, Pepperoni, Margherita, Quattro Formagio, Veggie Bianco, & the "Albertino" (tomato sauce, house-made Italian sausage, fire roasted red peppers, pickled red onions, roasted garlic, & mozzarella.)None of our choices disappointed. First & foremost, the pizza dough is center-stage, the star of the show. There is a super thin crispy outer layer to the crust that gives way to a soft, airy inner crust with a delicate chew. The bottom of the crust has a slightly thicker crispy layer thanks to the wood fired brick oven its cooked in. (900 degrees!) The dough is proofed for 48 hours- something I predicted upon my first bite, & confirmed w/ our server. The pizza sauce is tomato-centric-- this is not a typical pizza sauce loaded with excessive oregano... this is a balanced sweet & acidic pure tasting sauce that pairs perfectly w/ their dough. The "Albertino" was perfection! The fire roasted peppers are sweet & super flavorful, the pickled onions are a supporting player & truly the chunks of house-made sausage are the shining star of this pizza. Again, some pizza spots who dare attempt to produce in-house made Italian sausage overload their grind of cuts of pork w/ excessive fennel or crushed pepper. This sausage is savory, not overly fatty, & has authentic flavor without covering up the natural flavor of the pork. This was my over-all best pick of the pizzas. The Quattro Formagio pizza was excellent as well. A white pizza (no tomato sauce) with a creamy white sauce, roasted garlic & a blend of cheeses. Without the tomato sauce on this pizza, you come to a deeper appreciation for the dough/crust. This dough can carry anything you can think of topping it with. Finally- they offer a choice of pasta w/ marinara. The sauce- it's homemade, it's robust, it's tomato forward without heavy enhancement from herbs & seasonings. The pastas offered are spaghetti, linguine, fettuccine, & penne. All the pasta is FRESH & housemade. We tried the penne & the linguine. You cannot doubt the pasta was made minutes before you pierced it w/ your fork. Totally apparent it's fresh as fresh can get. The marinara has chunky & stringy pieces of tomato flesh. The sauce clings to the pasta. The pasta has a wonderful toothiness & is both firm & tender. I topped my penne w/ crushed red pepper flakes & some grated parmesan cheese which knocked it out of the park for me. This off-season special allows a customer to try a number of truly wonderful items on their menu for an incredible price. Albertinos offers some of th

We've been coming down to DE shore points for 25 years and this is the first time we tried Albertino's. It was clean inside, service was good, and the food was delicious. We had clams casino, pizza, and garlic bread loaf. It was the best pizza we've ever had at the shore points. So few places make homemade anything anymore so it was a nice surprise and it definitely was worth the visit. We will definitely be back!

If I could give 3.5 stars that is what it would get… the service was great but we stopped here for lunch 2 adults 2 kids for $125. Everything is homemade which I appreciate but it was just too expensive. Pizza was 7/10… we ordered half meatball and half cheese and received half pepperoni instead. I’m still on the hunt for best pizza in north OC MD

Albertinos. Firstly shoutout to Brandy the best bartender, she is so cute. They have AYCE soup salad pasta pizza (12.99). I have it memorized. I could kiss her on the lips if I could. Every time I come to the bar there's a lot of goobers sitting at the bar that make my experience immaculate. They are also pretty cute too but not as cute as Brandy. Come see it.

Chris D.

Great spot. Crazy drunks at bar, but the French onion was amazing. 10/10 would recommend.Update: went back. Brandy is the best bartender in the world. The same drunks were sitting at the bar today, they're great as well.
