Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

I am astonished at the good reviews of this place. I came here on a lunch break during the week and the waiter was absolutely clueless. He knew nothing about the menu and when asked what beers were on tap, he told me to go ask the bartender myself. It then took us 15 minutes to get our beers and another 45 minutes to get our greasy, mediocre slices of pizza. Unless you are stranded in 5-points and are allergic to everything but pizza, I recommend going elsewhere.

Great atmosphere, food, and people. Recommend it to anyone! The dough is delicious- fluffy and just the right amount of sweet. I had the calzone. It is HUGE and packed with your toppings of choice. Our server was so attentive, helpful, and friendly. I had a neighborhood feel. Very cozy and inviting.

Stumbled upon this place while on the Southside with my boyfriend. Had a taste for pizza and decided to give it a try. From the moment we walked in to the time we left, great service, friendly staff, and awesome food. We ordered the "meats" pizza and buffalo wings. The food was so,so good and tasty! The only thing i would say as a negative is the building has an odd smell when you first walk in, but soon dissipates after being in the restaurant for a while. Also did not offer any cocktail specials during their happy hour. But overall, a great place to hangout and eat. Hope it stays around for a long time.

This place is delish! I'll be honest and say I've only had it twice and both times got a calzone, but if it's good, why switch it up!? The first time I got it to-go and was shocked at the size of this thing. Their calzone is one of the best I've had around B-ham for sure. Doesn't try to do anything too fancy, large, tasty ingredients and comes with one of 3 "dipping" sauces. My tip on those is to stray far from the olive oil/garlic sauce because it's literally minced garlic with pure olive oil poured over it. Nothing to give it any kind of flavor or even make it actually "dipp-able". Minus that, I'll go here for a good calzone any day! I will say that dining in, pizza slices and apps seem to come out a lot... A LOT quicker than calzones do. If you're not in good company or are starving, I'd recommend bringing a book or ordering a quick app to wait for one of these. Well worth the wait tho. Servers are all friendly. Seems like they accommodate a lot of "regulars" as well. They have a few good brews on tap, and even saw the barkeep letting some patrons sample his fav mix drinks and beers to help decide what they actually wanted to purchase. I will say this was taking place while it was a bit slower... not as busy. Anyway, I'm a fan and will definitely be visiting again.

Came running in during a downpour it was minutes before 3. We just really wanted a quick bite. Ordered a couple pepperoni slices and beers. Service was friendly and easy going. Pizza came out and talk about a huge slice of pizza yowzas! Pizza was good beer was cold. Nice choice for the moment.

It was Date Night and the pizza connissoueur (PC from here on out) and I decided to check out this spot. I saw the sign outside that read live music awaited us inside. What a treat! However the musician was on break for awhile so we were entertained by a cute jukebox/stereo in the back of the place. Our server, Marisa, was super sweet and bubbly, which is always a plus in my book. I ordered the small 10 inch pizza with Alfredo, beef and extra cheese. I love the fact that they offer Alfredo as a choice. I can't find another pizza place that offers that choice in the city. PC ordered the small with beef, sausage and mushrooms. As we waited for our meal, we decide to haze our waitress to find out the history behind this new place. In a nutshell- they have been open since December, one of the owners has a family background in the restaurant biz, Tuesday is turn-up day, and live music would be added to the calendar soon. Way to go Marisa! She knew her stuff. She also pointed out the owners to us. The female owner came by our table and introduced herself and chatted with us, which was impressive because both of us are very big on customer service. Now, on to the food. Our pizzas finally arrived after a short wait and boy, were we in for a surprise! The cheese on mine stretched deliciously similar to what you would see in a top notch food magazine. The crust was buttery and so tasty that I ate all of it. And the beef topping was plentiful without being over the top. PC didn't look up the entire time so I knew he was pleased. The female owner, bartender guy and Marisa made sure we were well taken care of. The musician came back from his break and entertained the crowd the rest of the night with a few selections. PC and I both agreed we enjoyed our meal and that we would definitely come back. Summary: Little Italy Pies and Pints is worth checking out. Delicious pizza, friendly staff, decent prices, quaint atmosphere. I can see this place winning "Best New Local Restaurant" in another year. Make sure you help put them on the map!

Very pleased with our experience here. For starters it's a little small hole in the wall beer and pizza joint. But it was VERY cozy. I didn't feel out of place or anything. Service was friendly and attentive. So my favorite part: the food. I was beyond surprised and impressed. I've eaten my share of pizza from all over and this place blew me away. We had the House Specialty pizza which had an olive oil and garlic base instead of marinara and essentially was a supreme pizza minus a few toppings. The toppings/ingredients were phenomenal from start to finish. Super fresh, like they had just been picked from a market, and more importantly cooked just right so there wasn't any raw taste or feeling. They also give you a choice at crusts: hand tossed or crispy thin. I personally prefer a hand tossed crust and it didn't disappoint. We also ordered a Supreme Calzone. Man. This. Thing. Was. HUGE. I ate a quarter and so did my girlfriend and after that I was done. It was stuffed to the brim with the same kind of toppings as mentioned before, Lots of pepperoni, sausage and ham. In conclusion, Little Italy's Pies and Pints was great. 100% will be coming back and recommend it. Pricing is very fair and in my book inexpensive compared to most places for a great pizza and calzone.

Cold beer and 3 TVs with the games on is a great start. Excellent pizza. Tried the hand-tossed House Special pizza. It has a unique taste with an olive oil and garlic based sauce instead of the traditional pizza sauce. If you like garlic, you have to give this a try.

One of the things I miss about Chicago is those places you and your friends or your date can grab a cheap beer, get a reasonably priced pizza, and not break the bank. Formaggios might have filled that hole for me in the meantime, but Little Italy is hands down my favorite pizza and beer haunt in Birmingham. Their calzones really hit the spot for me. Elsewhere, calzones tend to be full of air and cooked super crispy, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. But the calzones at Little Italy's are jam-packed with toppings, not puffy with air, and are the perfect median between soft and crispy. And they give you plenty of marinara for dipping. Did I mention it's enormous? Unless you come hungry with a big appetite, you will be taking some home. Their pizza is also a must-try. I've had the house special (minus onions and peppers) and the olive oil base makes for a rich, decadent dinner. Their smallest pizza size is a 12" which, again, unless you eat big or go home, you'll have some leftovers. Their specialty offerings are the best bang for your buck as far as pizza toppings go - creating your own with several toppings might run up the bill a little. Their toppings are always fresh, and they have a surprising variety to choose from.

Can I just say that I'm so excited that this place opened! There weren't any solid pizza places around 5 points that served slices until now. I'm always sad at how little foot traffic this place brings in compared to the restaurants around it so if you are in the area and thinking about getting a slice of pizza you should go in! I love almost everything that they have on tap (they also have wine by the glass). Service has always been solid every time I have gone. They have special slices of the day however the cheese is always a great option. I also recommend the fried pickles. As for the pizza, I should say it's as big as you would want for a lunch slice. The only reason I'm giving this place a 4 instead of a 5 is because of the crust. It is good with all of the toppings on it but when you get to the end it is a little dry and leaves a dry taste in your mouth when you're done with the slice. I could also do with a tad thinner crust on the pizza. However other then that the pizza is solid. The service is also very fast. I highly recommend this place if you are close to 5 points and craving pizza.

Little Italy has a nice feel to it. The bar is beautiful there's no doubt; however, the restaurant itself looks overstyled. Not a lot of quality on the walls, but plenty of quantity of things that really have little to do with Italy. The food was okay. The crust on my calzone was very good. The overall ingredients inside were not top quality. It was average. The experience was rather average. Unfortunately for Little Italy, I prefer not to spend a large amount of calories on average food. If my friends suggested we go, I wouldn't mind; however, it would not be my suggestion. There are better pizzas and better joints in town.

In my opinion, this is the best new place to drop by for pizza in Birmingham. Since my first visit a month ago, I've been back more times than I care to admit for the delicious fried ravioli, pepperoni pizza, and well-rounded beer selections! The consistency of the flavor, cheese, and crispy crust is completely on point! I'm originally from Chicago and I've had my fair share of great, mediocre, and downright terrible pizza. Little Italy know how to bake a pie that will have you craving more my fellow pizza lovers! In addition, I've only experienced friendly service and conversation with the staff. The only thing I'm not a huge fan of is the décor and atmosphere. It's a generic sports pub theme could use a more personal touch for my taste. Other than that, I'm a fan of the location in 5 Points South, great pizza, solid service, and decent beer options!

I ordered the meat calzone. You will not be disappointed! Very buttery, garlicky, meaty, and cheesy! The price is fair and the service was fine. The place smells a little funky though. Probably could use a deep cleaning. Just my observation though.
(4)Chris J.
Been here a few times. Service and food is always great. Calzones or a little slice of perfection.
(5)Jeff B.
Great surprise and accommodating to a children toting family or meeting with a group of friends to watch the game. L.I. P&P will not disappoint. For me thin crust is the way to go but experience this place for yourself.
(5)Daina M.
My husband kept telling me we had to go here, and now I see why! We went at 3:15, 15 mins past their lunch special of pizza by the slice. I asked if there were any left, and our server awesomely let us have the last two pepperoni slices at the lunch price. The slices are HUGE and only 3.99! They use multiple cheeses and the crust was the perfect pan-- not too thick, not too thin. Also added the side salad for $2 and was not disappointed! The side salad had cheese and bacon which went great with their yummy ranch dressing. Only cost us $11 to eat and the service was fantastic. We will definitely be back!

Excellent pizza with great flavor! Good service and the food came out fast! Definitely recommend for a more authentic Italian style pizza lover.

Ok so I am Sicilian and I was not really impressed with this place if your just looking for somewhere to h s ng out it is ok I guess wont go back unless was asked to go by my friends.
(2)Taylor D.
Delicious Pizza. I ordered a Pepperoni for pickup and it was great. Worth driving to pickup rather than ordering delivery.
(4)Jennifer M.
Visiting the Birmingham area and decided to order from Little Italy & so glad we did. We tried the Greek salads and built our own pizza with pepperoni, mushrooms, spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. Both were awesome...full of ingredients and flavor. Not too greasy and the crispy thin crust was very good. Would definitely recommend this place to those in the area and will look forward to ordering from them again.
(5)Diana C.
This place is sooooooo yummy!!! I've been here 3 times and everything I've gotten was great. The chicken bacon ranch pizza is delicious, as are the fried raviolis. Service is good, the guy at the bar was very attentive. Stop by if you are in the mood for some great pizza with tons of toppings and flavor. I wouldn't change a thing with this place!!!!
(5)J M.
Solid place but far from the "best pizza in town." Pros: Good food, great happy hour, bar seating, decent service and atmosphere. Cons: Not much seating, kind of pricey for the quality. Overall: a welcome addition to the five points food scene.
(4)Dell B.
Ok, sausage and extra sausage on ultra thin cracker crust. Must try. This is our first stop when we land in Birmingham!!! Chill atmosphere, incredible pizza. Only John's in NYC is better.
