Taglio Pizza

We vegetarians have been to this fast casual place few times, always consistent and primed. Yes, their fame continues to punch below weight. Maybe because food critics are too NYC-absorbed to think beyond Umberto's in Long Island. Unlike Umberto's, This place has the informal feel of a sports bar - 3 screens and seating for ~30. Decor is kid-adultish, cartoon themed on one side, and testimonials on the other (Guys, you prepare prime stuff and don't need testimonials). On this day, we food stragglers walked late, when they were in pipe-down mode; some banter going on, behind the counters. Our selection went into the oven for a reheat and some additional char. Balsamic drizzle on Burrata NY slices was a magical finishing touch. Bianco Roman lived up to the status of perinnial favorite. We also love their potato rosemary, vegana, vodka and The Serra (named after LI hero) slices. Their location, close to Winthrop (now NYU Langone Hospitals) & Mineola commuter hub, is conducive to the 'taglio' (by the slice) business model. But being tucked under the Mineola overpass might be keeping some drive-by business away. Availability of parking has been an occasional handicap, too. We also wonder why they stack dry storage in dining area, to Mar the ambience. Worth noting that 'taglio' convenience comes at a price. Sum of parts (slices) adds-up to 50% premium over the full pie.

Great pizza experience! The atmosphere and customer service is excellent! The pizza is outstanding. I highly recommend the Margarita sesame seed crust and the Roman style square cheese pie with fresh basil!

Taglio in Mineola, New York, is truly a standout when it comes to pizza, especially if you're looking for something beyond the traditional New York slice. This Roman-style pizzeria, known for its "pizza al taglio" (pizza by the cut), has garnered national acclaim, even being ranked as the No. 3 best slice shop in the U.S. by 50 Top Pizza for two consecutive years! What makes Taglio so delicious? Their Roman-style pies are baked in rectangular blue-steel pans, resulting in a unique crust that's both crispy on the bottom and incredibly light and airy in the middle. It is the perfect dough, made with high-quality Caputo flour, which contributes to a fantastic chew and a feeling of not being overly full after enjoying a few slices. Beyond the exceptional crust, Taglio uses artisanal meats and cheeses, ensuring every bite is packed with bold flavor. Popular mentions include their Bianco, burrata with balsamic drizzle, and Mortadella with pistachio slices. The freshness of ingredients, like basil and grated cheese on every slice, also gets high praise! If you're in Mineola or Massapequa Park, Taglio is a must-visit. The staff was very friendly, helpful and the service was fast for such a crowd. It's not just great pizza; it's a culinary experience that has earned international recognition and a loyal following. 5/5!

Absolutely Incredible Pizza! I tried several kinds — truffle mushroom, BBQ, broccoli rabe & sausage, and prosciutto-arugula with mortadella & pistachio — and every single one was unbelievably good. The flavors were spot-on, fresh, and so creative. On top of that, the people behind the counter were so nice and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be back!

Place is well known, now opening multiple locations. I’ve been to a couple of them and they all are consistent. Pizza is Grade A. Locations are very cool with a lot of Mural‘s. The presentation of the pizza is always beautiful and it taste as good as it looks. Marvin has been a dislocation both times that I’ve went and he is so knowledgeable about the Pizza. You could see that he really cares about what he does and the product is proof itself. Gavin is making it happen and smooth while doing it. He’s got a great personality and is very welcoming. The staff was operating like a Will oil machine. Quick service, amazing product one of my favorite pizza joints. A must to go. A+++

Taglio serves some of the best Roman-style pizza around. The crust is light, crisp, and airy, and the toppings are top-notch—thoughtful combinations like fresh mozzarella with pesto or prosciutto with arugula and balsamic really shine. The space has a cool, urban vibe with exposed brick and bold art, making it a solid spot to sit or grab and go. Definitely a cut above your average slice shop

Crispy square slices and pies. Good value when you look at the quality and size you're getting for the price. Seating gets packed so be prepared to take out. Crust 10/10 The crust has the perfect combination of being airy, crispy, without being burnt. Sauce 7/10 The sauce taste like the fresh tomato cooked in the oven style. It has some of that fresh tanginess of the tomato but it doesn't really stand out on its own. Cheese 7/10 The cheese is there but the flavor doesn't come through with any special notes or textures. Toppings: Buffalo Chicken 9/10 - the flavor is spot on. Not too buttery or spicy, just the right amount of spicy flavor. Vodka Roni Pesto 9/10 - smart combination of pepperoni, sauce, pesto. I think it could use some more pesto. I like the spice of the pepperoni Potato 7/10 - it's cool to try this. It's like half way between potato and mashed potato.
