Colasessano's Pizza - Fairmont, West Virginia

Honest R.

Atmosphere- 4 stars- located behind the Middletown Commons in Whitehall this local establishment is very popular with the local community. Nicely decorated for the Christmas season. Very clean with ample seating.

Service- 3 stars- we had a friendly but not very experienced waitress.

Food- 4 stars- great pizza- not a huge fan of thick pizza but this is an exception. Only toppings available are pepperoni and peppers (hot or mild). They also have exceptional pepperoni rolls- probably the best I have ever had. They have a decent selection of Italian dishes and appetizers. I had the zing wings which were supposed to be spicy but there was no heat at all but still good. Also tried the grilled chicken salad and was a little disappointed in this dish- chicken was bland and salad a little boring. Highly suggest when coming here to get the pizza and pepperoni rolls.

I have been to a lot of countries around the world and eaten in some of the best restaurants that they have to offer, but I have never had anything anywhere as good as a Colassessano’s pepperoni bun. I always look forward to coming home to it. The Sicilian style pizza is also excellent. Head and shoulders above all the big pizza chains.

Great local restaurant that has been there for about 75 years. The staff was great and very attentive. There was even live music by two performers, nice touch. The food was great and I was surprised how much I really like the pizza with the peppers. If you are in the area, it’s definitely worth visiting.

We went with a group that had a reservation. Our group estimated two few dinners and the staff quickly rearranged to provide us with adequate seating.

The food was quick to arrive and the service was great. I had the Italian deli sandwich and my wife had the lasagna. We were both happy with our order.

I had the stuffed hot pepper dinner. The wife had the stuffed shells. Salad and bread included. Cold Bud light. Everything is very good.

We ordered a large antipasto salad with French dressing and received Ranch dressing. I even spelled the dressing for the person who took the order. But that's only a small problem. While the spider sandwich was ok (it was mostly bread with very little meat, cheese, and peppers), it was the chicken parmesan sandwich that was terrible. When I opened the container, there was sauce everywhere. I took off the top of the bun and what was underneath looked like a thin, dark hamburger patty. I called the restaurant to let them know we were bringing the chicken sandwich back for a refund and to pick up dressing. The person I spoke with asked where we live and I told him just a few minutes away, he said ok. When my husband arrived, the doors were locked. He knocked, but no one came to the door. It's such a shame that this restaurant has declined so much. The original owners would never, ever have served such bad food.

Typically good but the past few times I've gone, the bread for the buns seemed to be old. Not great. Staff always friendly. Price is a bit high for the amount of food.

I've been getting pizza since the original spot in Bellevue since the early 70's. Only been disappointed 1 time, the time I came home late, and there was only one piece left.
