Editorial review from Citysearch 7/12/2015

Truly amazing people they have here. The branch manager is also well-manered and organized, I can tell. Their pizzas taste good as well. more

Uncle Vito's? Don't bother. 10/28/2010

Food is just ok. Pasta and pizza both not very good...but mainly the service is baaaad. I really don't care if I am a tourist or local, paying attention to me is not that hard. Not listening when I ask for something, forgetting the garlic bread that is part of the meal, bringing it when I am done, and then it is burned black, etc.. Acting like I am too much trouble to bother with is inexcusable. I had to constantly wave the waitress down for service. I wouldn't bother, no matter how easy it is to walk in and eat. more

I veto Uncle Vito's. 10/27/2010

Mediocre food. Bad service. It was great until we sat down and then waited for someone to notice that we were there. Food was not that hot when it finally arrived. The waitress forgot the garlic bread that came with the pasta. When she remembered and brought it, it was burned and we refused it. She seem aggravated when we asked for a second glass of wine, and really perturbed that we thought about dessert. Tourist or local, stay away. more

Great casual place! 10/10/2009

I love love love the pizza at this place. I used to love real close so it was super convenient, but I still go back from time to time for a beer and pizza. Everyone there is great and I've never been disappointed. Always fresh and hot!! Pros: near union square Cons: no parking more

Uncle Vito's Pizza 1/31/2009

Vito's Pizza is the best pizza in the city. The staff is friendly, and the restaurant itself is clean. I don't know why it only has 3 stars from other reviewers, they must have been drunk while reviewing. Never drink and review kids. more

Late nite hungries and hot food... 10/11/2008

I found Uncle Vito's to be just what I expected, good hot food and lots of it. We ordered the specials which were a feta, spinach and sun dried tomato pizza and a chicken and cheese stuffed ravioli in garlic cream sauce with mushrooms...the ravioli was easily enough for 2 with a delicious rich creamy garlic suace and big tasty pieces of mushroom. The ravioli came with garlic bread that was hot and soft and buttery. The pasta covering the ravioli was a little thick but the sauce was very good. The pizza had a crispy crust and warm melty feta over the spinach and tomatoes...very tasty. There was quite a crowd and I waited prob 20-25 minutes for the food...not excellent but very good...worth the wait for a good late night snack. Pros: large amountof food Cons: parking more

good affordable delivery 8/13/2008

Ordered delivery from Uncle Vitos during a recent visit to San Fran. Delivered promptly to my hotel, nice and warm. The cheesy garlic bread was delicious, and the two Alfredo meals we ordered were good, but pretty average, definitely a hefty portion. I would order from here again if I was looking for some affordable delivery food. more

Loved the spagettini 2/21/2008

San Francisco for Dummies recommended Uncle Vito's a good food at a reasonable price - and it really is! I loved their meatballs (my way of rating Italian restaurants), the house Chianti was good, and I recommend the Spagettini with brocolli and garlic. We went twice during our 6-day stay. Pros: Great food, good price (about $10 per person before wine) Cons: Didn't try the pizza, but had to put something in the circle... more

Open late 11/30/2007

While on vacation, we ate late at Uncle Vito's several nights because it was the only thing open past 10pm. The pizza was good. French fries were good too. more

great for take out! 9/21/2007

this place is excellent for take out! the restaurant itself is a dive and the wait staff is lacking, but the food is great... we walked over from our hotel, but should have just got the take out. the meatball sandwich is excellent and the chicken ceasar salad is pretty darn good too... and cheap! take out for sure though. Pros: location, great take out food, price Cons: the restaurant is ""tired"" more

I'd rather eat frozen pizza than Uncle Vito's!!! 7/17/2007

Uncle Vito's does for pizza what the KKK does for race relations. A (former) friend recommended this place for a quick bite...hopefully no one will find his body where I dumped it... Pros: The difficult parking in the area should prevent most from dining here Cons: The CON job they put on every customer that thinks they might get edible pizza more

Poor imitation of Italian food 6/16/2007

I'll be the first to tell the truth. I had to check out this restaurant after reading some rave reviews on the internet. What a hoax. It was not Italian food. The spaghetti was one big soggy mess with a tomato sauce that tasted like it came out of an old can. Vito's pizza was below average. DiGiorno's frozen pizza outranks this place anyday. Pros: Somewhat convenient location Cons: Food, service, atmosphere more

I can't believe all the good reviews for this place!!!! 4/11/2007

I went with a friend after reading about it on citysearch. Started out with a salad that was good but the pizza was not very good at all. Mediocre at best. Go to Gaspar's on Geary and taste a delicious pizza. My friend had the meatball sandwich and like it but he did not care for the pizza either. Pros: Good location Cons: below average pizza more

Worst excuse for "pizza" ever 2/23/2007

While staying in union square unfortunatly we stumbled upon 'ol uncle vitos pizza.\r The location couldn't be argued with.While close to the heart of the city, this pizza couldn't have possibly made its way to the city's stomach. Including the dry atmosphere, bland taste, service without human expression and lack of menu items associated with pizza, uncle vitos had every bad pizza joint base covered twice. The last thing i would like to know is, who serves salad in california without ranch dressing? go figure, go spend your money somewhere else if you enjoy taste or atmosphere more

area favorite! 5/5/2006

With good, simple, fresh dishes and free delivery this place is an area favorite! The pizza is great, great crust and sauce. I love the pasta and my boyfriend loves the turkey sandwich with avocado. They also have burgers so there is something for everyone! Pros: delivery, pizza, fast Cons: small dining area more

Great Pizza, don't believe the critics 1/18/2006

Recommended by the consierge, we were stoked. Ate and ate until we were blue, all three of us thought it was at least the top 3 of any pizza we'd ever had. Pepperoni alone is great. The San Franciso twins eat there every Monday night. Pros: Pizza, Pizza, Pizza more

Simple but delicious! 8/6/2005

On a recent visit to San Francisco, my wife and I decided to give Uncle Vito's a shot for a quick evening meal. We were not disappointed! We both enjoyed their pasta. The fettucine with clams was delicious--filled with tender clams in a rich creamy white sauce. We enjoyed it so much we tried the pizza (a delivery to our hotel) a couple days later and were equally happy. The crust was thick and the toppings ample. The sauce was tasty but it seemed that a bit more sauce was needed as it was a bit dry. The beef topping was good. The service, both in the cafe and through delivery, was excellent! It is a bit noisy and busy but a fun place for an inexpensive and tasty meal and good overall dining experience. Pros: value, variety, good delivery service Cons: small "tight" space, noise more

Big Plates, Good Pasta, Good Service 7/25/2005

This place sits on the corner of Bush and Powell Streets. It looks small from the outside, but opens up fast. The food is absolutely fantastic, and VERY large portions... You are guaranteed to bring home some leftovers. Service is good, and stays just as good when busy. more
