Scuola Pizza, Gainesville FL

Did a takeout. Ordered 12 inch veggies

Pros:

Employees were super nice

Ingredients are all natural

Great atmosphere

Cons

Was told it would take 15 minutes. Took 30.

The tomatoes were rotten

I asked for fresh matzorella which they put, but they also put a lot of feta which over powered.

Overall:

Super nice employees

All natural

Great atmosphere.

Would recommend.

They have great option to accommodate to my dairy free preferences, and it was definitely worth every buck!
This was the very first pizza place in Gainesville that didn't give me any trouble after ordering vegan cheese Scuola 16", and I fully enjoyed their meal. It was a great experience, starting with a friendly family owned environment, followed by the great dairy free vegan pizza

This was my first time and it was delicious. Savannah was so sweet and very attentive to our table.

Absolutely phenomenal service, with fresh ingredients and a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

We decided to check this place out on a whim while sitting in the El Indio drive threw lol. Let me just say we ordered over the phone and customer service was awesome! He was polite and efficient. We left El Indio (which is like 2 blocks away if you're not familiar with the area) headed straight there, walked in and it was ready with a parking lot full! We tried the pizza in the parking lot and everything was so delicious! You could tell they took pride in these pizzas. The ingredients were fresh, portions were big, and everything was piping hot! Best pizza experience we've had in Gainesville hands down and we've lived here 20 years! Thank you Savana, Austin and TJ for making it such a special experience also!

All I can say, is that this place is wonderful. We came a across by someone telling us about it.
Again you deserve to go here when You can

This is a hidden gem of an Italian restaurant. The carbonara chicken was excellent. The pesto tortellini was amazing. My family said the spicy chicken penne dish and the old school cheeseburger were delicious too. Their chicken parm, house salad and chocolate cake are all outstanding too. I’ve been 3 times now and have never been disappointed in the food, service or the prices. It would be more awesome if there were complimentary garlic rolls/bread/breadsticks.
Also Savannah is one of the best waitresses we have had in a long time. Keep up the excellent work!

This was the first experience for both my friend and me. I got the Mikasa and she got the lasagna and we shared. We each got dessert which I haven’t tried yet, but looks fabulous. We got the chocolate covered chocolate cake. I had the beet salad which I am going to get again. It’s the perfect blend of spicy sourness to go with the Mikasa and the lasagna. Absolutely delicious.
We will definitely be going back. The coffee and bread we’re great also.

Placed an order to go and was told it would be ready in 20 minutes. Walked in after 15 minutes and it was coming out as I walked in. Tried both types pizzas we ordered in the parking lot while it was hot. Hands down best pizza in Gainesville. Savanna, TJ and Austin were incredible. Best service from calling in the order to picking it up. Highly recommend!

The place is nice, the food is good we accidentally ordered something we cannot eat but the waitress was nice and understanding she brought a new dish

As a half itialian resident of Clay County which neighbor's Gainesville I've been to every pizza joint in town except this one. Always hearing good things about them and receiving a coupon deal on Facebook I decided now was the time to give them a shot. First off I have to confess I am a culinary school graduate (masters degree) so I'm extremely picky and a bit snobby about food. I ordered the gyro pie and the scuola pie. Both were absolutely awesome. You can taste the freshness in the crust, perfectly baked and expertly topped. I can't be sure but the slight char on the crust edges makes me think it's a brick oven they use and if not it sure feel like it. I say this not at all lightly but far and beyond THE BEST pie in Gainesville. And there's not a good Greek place around so if the Greek options are even half of what that pie is.boy ohh boy. I think I found my new go to joint.bravo

My wife and I love this place and it is our new go to for pizza and Italian. It also helps that we have always had great service but Austin also goes above and beyond. He is very friendly, energetic and stays on top of things. He meets our every need without having to ask. I am sorry it took us 2 years to find this place. The Chicken pizza is amazing as is the steak marsala. Of course, you must get the tiramisu for dessert. My wife loves it! The have great specials all week. We have not tried carry out but dine in has been great.

Delicious pizza and salad, very cool looking interior. Definitely a really neat spot to grab some good food

Always have a great meal here. Everything from the gyro themed dishes to pastas to pizzas to onion rings. It's all really nice.

I want to say that I am truly impressed by this restaurant! My mother and I were visiting for the game and needed to eat. My mother can not have gluten though, so that slims our options. Was very impressed by the options for her. I am a manager of an italian restaurant so I know it’s hard to be perfect. But this is the closest my dining experience has been to perfect…in a LONG time. The atmosphere was delightful and our server was very kind and attentive. I loved the decorations and the music! Soft music with dim lighting is always amazing. I ordered the chicken parmigiana and it was good. I do wish the breading for the chicken was a little crispier but I loved the sauce and the noodles were cooked perfectly! If I lived here… this would definitely be a weekly visit for me. Thank you!

I have never dined in, but I have done pick-ups and deliveries. The food is always stellar, the service is expeditious and courteous, and the restaurant is always clean. They never miss any special instructions for online orders. I order the same “light cheese” pizza for my daughter with ASD every couple weeks, and she is always so excited when she sees it! I have tried their specialty pizzas and a few entrées as well. I highly recommend the Kokkinisto! All of the food here is portioned well and will have you coming back for more. I absolutely adore this restaurant and it is clear that the owners, management, as well as the rest of the staff care tremendously about their customers. See you in a couple weeks!

Stopped by for lunch with my teenage son. Impeccable service. Gyro platter was delicious, and so was the Greek shrimp. Nicely seasoned! Highlight for me were the sweet potato fries that I ordered by mistake - absolutely the best I have ever had. We will definitely be back!
