** An Unforgettable Pizza Experience** I recently had the pleasure of dining at Illiano's, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The outdoor space is cute and quiet, offering a serene atmosphere perfect for a relaxing meal. The gourmet pizzas here are the real stars of the show. Each one is crafted with care, featuring fresh, high-quality ingredients and unique flavor combinations that truly set them apart. The Big Mac Pizza was a big hit among the teenagers in our group, delivering a fun and delicious twist on the classic burger. However, the highlight for me was the Margarita Pizza. It was nothing short of phenomenal, with a perfectly crispy crust, tangy tomato sauce, and fresh mozzarella that melted in my mouth. The balance of flavors was just right, making it one of the best pizzas I've ever tasted. Overall, Illiano's on Washington offers a delightful dining experience with outstanding pizzas and a charming picnic style outdoor setting. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable meal.

Highly recommend! Came in to grab some slices and they were so yummy. Jay was incredibly kind to us and helpful to accommodate some special food needs we had. The buffalo chicken slice had chunks of blue cheese and was so flavorful. All 3 slices we got were delicious. Dying to try their Big Mac slices. The closest I’ve seen to nyc in terms of pizza by the slice. Slices were big and so yummy. Thanks so much!!! We will definitely be back!

I’m writing this while eating it. It was so good that I felt the actual need to stop what I’m doing and write it. This hot grinder is the cheeseburger grinder with added black olives. Very yummy and warm for the stomach which gives that good feeling of a nice hot meal that just gives you good feelings. I honestly have to say there was no one who would have changed anything about their meals. Fantastic!

I had a pepperoni pizza , it’s my first time eating Illianos Pizza. I loved it. I loved the taste and it was hot and crispy and fresh. I did have a taste of the buffalo chicken pizza and I think I’ll order that next. It was outstanding. Will come here again for pizza and I’ll try other things.... lots of variety.

Great food! Staff was friendly! First time here and I was impressed by the pizza! I ordered the buffalo chicken pizza and garlic knots. I was amazed on how much chicken was actually on my pizza! I think they put a whole layer of shredded chicken down! So many different pizzas to try at this restaurant! They all look amazing! They have pizza by the slice also if you want to just try something and not get a whole pie. I definitely will be back! Not your average pizza at this place!
