Why is this place still in business?We went because of the mostly good reviews (liars). We stayed because we were extremely hungry.CONS-Smells like a mix of fresh & old cigarette smoke; our booth was dusty & greasy; there were sausage bits in my vegetarian order.PROS-The employee was attentive and welcoming; the paper menu was clean; the food was served quickly, mostly accurate and hot.The scent of the pizza obscured the stench of cigarette smoke adequately.Met my rock bottom standard for a two star review - no one in our group got food poisoning.Never going back, but not the worst experience I’ve had at a restaurant in the US.Vegetarian options: Not reliable - it was obvious by taste that my vegetarian pizza had bits of spiced sausage in it.

At first glance, Schiano’s isn’t much to look at… but remember you don’t go Schiano’s for the atmosphere, you go for the pizza… which is phenomenal. Best Ive had since leaving New York.

I've been going to this family owned pizza establishment, and the guy in the cap with the black hair Victor has been treating customers very well, same as his staff there. I'm still a friend of Victor, and I'm a regular there as well. Man what I love about this place is the pizzas, and the fries, and they were pretty great.! In my experience and opinion, and. I try not to gossip but I think I don't see much customers there as much, but they have a lot of delivery orders in my experience. I mostly come to their restaurant at 2:00 to buy their fries, and those people there are the best at what they do. Yes I'll be coming back at this place before so head to work at Harris Teeter. Thank you guys for being patient, and stealing the show.

Love this little family owned pizza place. I come in all the time for a piece of pizza, served piping, hot and large enough for two meals. Have not had the same luck with their entrées, pasta does not appear to be fresh cooked for example. But for pizza, this is my go-to local place.

Just got back after trying out 3 different lunch specials and one of the sandwiches.Absolutely awful. Please do not waste your time here. The lady who greeted us was very lovely, but the food was not quality at all. The spaghetti was very watery, and only came with 2 meatballs. The sausage spaghetti was also watery and the sausage was somehow dry. You can literally do better with a jar of classico and some noodles.The garlic bread was very greasy. The side salad was a small handful of lettuce, 2 olives, and 1 slice of tomato.The sandwiches were dry and the portions of meat/cheese/toppings was rather small.2/10 experience, would not go back until the food and sanitation (93.00 rating) are addressed.

Made a quick stop in here after flying into RDU. My boys loved the absolutely giant NY style pizza slice. The owner was super nice and took excellent care of us. We’d be regulars if we lived here.

This pizza parlor truly feels like a taste of home, reminiscent of Long Island, New York. The buffalo chicken and pepperoni pizza combination is a personal favorite, and the garlic knots are a must-try – soft and perfect for dipping in sauce. While there's ample seating indoors, we prefer takeout. The staff is incredibly friendly and even remembers regular customers. Consistently great experiences here, highly recommend giving it a try!
This is one of my favorite pizza places! I always order it to go, and the food never disappoints. The pizza is huge and is delicious every time! The staff is always nice when I come in to pick up my order.

I have no idea what’s going on with this place. We have stopped going here and decided to try it again and once again, such a disappointment. Went and got pizza and two subs tonight. They told us 30 minutes. Got there 10 minutes earlier and everything was ice cold. Such a shame because I want to support local businesses, but I’ll never go back.

I dream about the Lasagna Pizza from this place. Every time I visit Raleigh I must have it. The sizes are generous and the ricotta is phenomenal. My friend and I split the pizza - with meat for her, without for me. It is divine. Their sauce is perfection and it reheats and tastes just as good day 2. I will update with photos next time.Also I love the cannolis - they are often out though. Desserts go quickly.
