I absolutely LOVE Patrizia s, I always go to the Staten Island location for special occasions or when I want some good pizza. For Valentine s day which also happened to be my wedding day, I took my non New Yorker husband to the best Italian place you could ever eat at. The food was outstanding, amazing energy in the room with lots of love & great music. I would give 5 stars but let me explain why I didn t as much as it pains me. Vday is busy, I get it! But we made reservations far before the actual date & still was not seated at our reservation time. it was made for 8pm, & of course there was an insane mob of people outside waiting.. after almost 2 hours, there was still a list of people waiting to get in & my name was at the top for the next seating. A man who seemed to be running things poked his head out & a woman who s reservation was an hour after mine, insisted she be seated since she called an hour before her reservation & it was past her set time. I firmly told the man, her name was literally AFTER me, he blew me off & let her in anyway. As I got ready to leave, the hostess outside who was serving wine made it her business to tell the man herself i had been waiting a very long time & was before the woman. He finally gave us a table. Had she not stepped in, we wouldn t have been seated until almost midnight. (i m not exaggerating since we didn t see a single customer come in after us until we were nearly done with our dinner). Overall, I will always love & eat here, but, I didn t appreciate the terrible service & blatant disrespect from their employee.
