Marcello's Pizza and Pasta - Nuevo, California

Noah

Let me tell you this. I am such a big fan of all things vintage. This place makes me feel like I stepped back into the 80s/90s! Now I understand that some people don’t like that look, but I find it cool.

The pizza was actually really good too! Me and my parents thought the buttered crust was a nice touch that other pizza places I won’t name…don’t do lol

My mind is always racing with ideas. The whole time my parents and I sat down in the dining room, I was looking at everything. Thinking of the huge opportunity this place had!

I know there are thousands of people like me that like old stuff; a whole demographic of nostalgic Gen Z. If I had my Walkman, I would’ve had a photoshoot in the middle of the restaurant! 😅

Its a shame this place is so far away from town. If Marcello’s was located closer to Downtown Perris, there would be a lot more foot traffic, I’d honestly be a recurring customer just to play those arcade games!

I reuploaded this review with an idea board instead of individual pictures as I didn’t want to mislead future customers with my review. I hope you understand!

Small cute pizzeria, the owner was very kind and patient. Got take out and I must say their food was absolutely delicious!! The pizza was perfect, their sandwiches are to die for. The bread was so soft and warm and didn’t skimp out. Their chicken wings are amazing. We will absolutely be coming back. Plus, they have a small arcade hidden in the corner, just the best.

great pizza better then most big name pizza restaurants. a vast improvement from years back i believe original owner is back in charge. usually i carry out but dined in a while back, for the most part clean but same look from years ago would recommend slight remodel to clean it up (more importantly restroom) other then that the foods great.

I do take out since I live kinda far. I get there before my foods ready usually and they say when I call to make my order it will take 25 minutes. I get there and they say it needs a few minutes more. I wait another 20 minutes. So my total time is 45 minutes from making my order. Idk if they forget I’m waiting for my order or what but they’ve done this at least three times. I love the food i just hate waiting forty min and driving back home. Not good when you’re starving.

I got food delivered via Instacart/GrubHub so I can't rate or comment on the atmosphere but what I could see via online pics looked nice.
I got a large antipasto and everything on it was fresh and crisp. I also got a order of the 12 piece boneless chicken "wings" and they were fresh, unprocessed white meat. They were tasty and tender. Now the main reason I placed an order through them was because of the way that their pizza crust looked in the pictures. I was just going to get a smaller pizza but I saw that they had a special if you got two of the 18 inch size pizzas, it was buy one get one free and to me that was a bargain. Now the pizza that I got was good and I'm going to divide it up and put it in the freezer so I have pizza for a very long time on hand. But the crust was different then what was pictured in the online pictures. The online ones look more like a hand-thrown tossed you know New York style pizza crust but the crust I got was thin and kind of like a cracker crust, so it was a bit disappointed in that it was two for one and a bargain and enough food for the household for days I'm not complaining. I did learn next time not to order that size or to make sure that thin crust isn't checked.
All and all I give it five stars out of five stars.

Perfect spot if only they would take have more concern with serving better quality food. I wish they could return to their quality from a year ago.
