Deorio's Pizzeria - Pizza restaurant in Southside - 1602 AL-77, USA

Dont get your hopes up. Had the spaghetti with meat sauce and a baked spaghetti to go. Sauce was a bottle type so tasted fine but nothing special. Pasta was bloated from overcooking. Atmosphere non existent. Plastic cutlery. Disappointing.

Deorio’s is the best pizza place in Etowah County and it ain’t even CLOSE. Best pizza by far. No debating.

Food nasty. Service sucked-very disrespectful. Didn't even get inside the business as it was a take out order. Never again. I will tell everyone I know not to give them business. Go to Papa Johns or Dominoes.

Calpine was pretty good, maybe a tad greasy. Got the lunch special and found it odd it didn't come with a side like some of the other lunch specials. The lady was very soft spoken and made it kinda hard to understand her when she spoke. Other empty tables still had lot of trash sitting on them when we came in and for a while after being there.

My husband I called in our order and pIcked it up 40 mins later. I didnt know what dressing my family wanted so I waited until i got there to tell them. The OLD MAN (Employee) apparently thought we were making a scene because his employee had to go get "extra" dressing. I never asked for that. We told the girls thank you for our pizza and we walked out BUT THEN old man employee decided to chase both my husband and I to our car to tell us we weren't welcome back. He ran up to my car window and said he was justified by doing so l. I have never had any employee chase me back to my car and scream at me qhen i have my windows up. We will never be back. I've lived here for 8 years and Ive never been treated so disrespectfully by someone in this town. I WOULDNT ORDER FROM THIS PLACE UNLESS YOU WANT THIS MAN CHASING YOU OUT TO YOUR CAR WINDOW.

We stopped by while on an overnight stop on our trip to Florida from Kentucky. We were looking for something local and had a hankering for Italian. Deorio's hit the spot. We ordered a personal pizza and a muffaletta at the window. It arrived about 15 minutes later. Both were hot when delivered and tasted very good. Only complaint was that the soda fountain was out of Coke and Dr. Pepper. Both were drinks we wanted with our food. Went for Sprite and Iced Tea instead. Not the fanciest place, but if are looking for an 80s scene (we felt we dropped back in time 30 years due to the arcade machines inside), friendly service and fresh food, give this spot a try. It seems to be very popular with the locals and everyone knew everyone else.

Both sandwiches we got were good. But, my mufelatta had too many olives on it for me. Please understand this is just MY opinion. We will still go back. My wife's meatball sandwich was great and spit on!

We got delivery to our hotel and it was excellent.
