Delicious Pizza!!!! Super nice staff and this place is very clean. It wasn't real busy so it was very quiet and was able to enjoy our food. Definitely try this place if you LOVE PIZZA!!

Hands down, the BEST PIZZA IN STATE COLLEGE. If you love gooey, undercooked pizza with bad under carriage, don’t eat here. There are plenty of bad choices available. But if you’re ready for the closest thing to a New York slice that you can find in these parts then you must try Giuseppe’s!

First-time time customer. Pizza place on a main street in a college town, but they got the pizza right! I tried 3 different slices and they were all great. I spoke with the owner, and he seemed invested in his staff's performance. I think this produces a quality experience. The staff at the counter did a great job taking my order and serving my food quickly. They were pleasant and helpful. I like to adventure to new places to eat, but I put this on my GO TO list. I would recommend it.

The owner Joe Pizza as we refer to him in our local group chat: one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet! Passionate about food, pizza obviously. About the food and restaurant: fantastic! I wanted to eat so much more than I did (2 slices and about 1/4 of the garlic wedges) but couldn’t as it’s too much but all for a great price! Leftovers for at least two if not 3 days ahead. Cooked perfectly, not overly topped even when ordering a meat pizza or other high topping pizzas. They have 2 slice and pop combo for 7 and change as of this review; great deal for a bite to go or enjoy in a booth or bar looking out to college Ave. Give Joe and his staff a visit!

Hands down the best pizza in State College and the closest you’ll find to New York style pizza. The staff are always kind & courteous, the pizza is consistently delicious, and the wait time is short, often 20 min or less. Strombolis are my other favorite from here.

This is the best pizza hands down in State College. Not very known spot yet, but they serve by slice or pie or whatever you desire. Affordable and deliver. The sauce is perfect, more standard cut pizza but the bread is firreee, crust and crunch on the oven bottom out my taste buds and ears in heaven. They also do bulk orders in a pinch! They are always very pleasant. Not a lot of good pizza in state college, but Giuseppe’s is the one, by far. Bang it!

Friendly staff, convenient location, plenty of options for slices, comfortable seating. Very good NY style thin crust pizza. I enjoyed it and will return.

Pretty tasty pizza. Large slices. They put a lot of pineapple on their Hawaiian pizza, which I like. The interior is no-nonsense, but that's fine. The bathroom is kinda weird - through the kitchen and a sketchy door, then turn left before you tumble down a couple small steps. Best of all, however - customer service was very friendly and helpful.
