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.

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.

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...

If there ever was an "Uncle Vito", he's probably spinning in his grave. This pizza was no better than from your grocers freezer. The "garlic bread" we ordered consisted of a grocery aisle hoagie roll cut in half with a schmear of garlic spread stuck in the oven for a couple minutes...now THAT' S ITALIAN!!! I'm just surprised that I didn't find Spaghettios or Bologna Alfredo on the menu. If you even consider eating here....you deserve what you get!!!

As for the service...I'll let you guess...

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.

The place was crowded and noisy; reminiscent of a fast food joint. Service was poor; lunch took over two hours! Since the food wasn't edible, we left hungry. We immediately went to another restaurant in Union Square to have a real meal.

Don't let the friendly name fool you. If you value good food, then just pass this place and don't look back.

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.
