La Strada of Merrick Restaurant

Pretty good

Little bit of flop, very nice undercarriage. Sauce is very tasteful but the cheese lacks some flavor. Crust is very flaky and doughy which is beautiful. Overall a good pie but a little disappointing with how phenomenal it looks. Thought it would be an easy 8+ based on just looks

Just looking at this pie gave my tummy a boner. Boring into the succulent slice mostly affirmed said boner, ALTHOUGH it definitely looks better than it tastes. The dough is near perfection, cheese is above average, but the sauce left a bit to be desired. That being said, the pepperoni slice knocked my pants clean off my body. For this style of pie, you can do much better. I need to go clean myself up now.

Lemme tell ya… if Dave ever needed a substitute pizza reviewer ~ someone that’s gonna be right in line with what he likes, I may be the man for the job. This is why I travel to go to the places he gives high scores. I’m almost always in total agreement with him. Was so looking forward to this place since I drove by it a couple months ago and saw on the app he’s been there. The pizza looked great and it had a monster public rating. I wish it tasted as good as it looked. Although very fresh… absolutely no crisp whatsoever. I actually liked the 2nd slice after it got colder. Also ~ place is a restaurant with a bar. You can order out. No counter, no slices.. you’re welcome. 😉

The toppings and ingredients all tasted fresh but for me the crust and sauce was just okay! For those who want to try it be sure to know it’s full pies only!!

Second pie and it keeps getting better and better. Well done Margarita pie. All you need to order. Sauce, crust and cheese is amazing. My fav local pie!!!

Just the Facts: RESCORE - Best pizza ever! Sauce and chess’s taste like something that you’d find in a real great and authentic NYC Pizza shop. Crust is a 10. Nothing else further to say 👊🏻😎

I don't love Napolitano style as much as the next but it does have a tasty sauce and crisp is nice. I can see why others rate it high

Now that's what I call high quality H2O. A hidden gem of a pie that doesn’t seem to get the attention it deserves as it’s hidden inside an authentic Italian restaurant as opposed to a traditional pizzeria. Sauce, seasoning and cheese all delectable. Great char and A+ undercarriage with some flop. Personal preference wonders if the pie had been more well done if it would have hit the 9’s. We have another contender and possible leader amongst the elite Long Island spots like Sorrento’s, etc.

Dave U gotta try it you won’t be disappointed!

This pizza is very high quality. The crust is paper thin and crisp. The sauce has a great tang in conjunction with the nice hints of oregano. The cheese is fresh and very little oil. This is a place a pizza lover should visit.

Great pizza. Glad I took the trip. Ingredients and spices are perfectly complimenting each other. Not as crispy of an under carriage but it did travel home. Going to go back and eat inside!

Honestly, this pizza is worth a 35 minute drive for. Surprised to say the least. Wish there was more tang in the sauce but what incredible dough.

Amazing wood fire pizza, unique style, a little flop but the taste and ingredients are so good it doesnt matter, better than overrated di faras any day

One of the best pies I’ve had. Sauce is A1, perfect amount of sweetness and tang. Cheese is dialed and crust is just enough crispy.

it’s so bomb!!! 😍 sauce is super sweet

This was amazing- cheese, sauce omg and the crust so good. A little heavy and could be crispier. But an amazing pizza.

worth the trip

Very good wood fired pie , the sauce is more like a cooked sauce
