Reviews for Verdi's Italian Market in Mentor, OH
This Review pertains to the pizza only... If I were to describe it in two words only, that would be Ketchup Bread. The pieces... were an inch and a half high with a thin tomato base spread across the top and covered in cheese. They did not skimp on theamount of cheese which was a plus, but their idea of a "meat lovers" was 2 slices of pepperoni and 1 slice of sausage on a 4x4inch square. You're not loving the meat, you're looking at it's butt when it can't see you. The "Veggie Pizza" was the samethick bread, tomato spread, and cheese, but also had green and red pepper pieces in the cheese along with red onion. As peppersand onion are veggies, I won't say that this is not a "veggie pizza", but I would say that it barely qualifies. Some of thestandard toppings found on other veggie pizzas include spinach, tomatoes, broccoli, artichoke, zucchini, arugula, kale,eggplant, and mushrooms. I'm not saying that a single pizza needs all of that, but some places choose to do more than theminimum and we encourage that. We just want you to express yourselves; you do want to express yourself, don't you? As far asfilling - it's 24 cubic inches of bread per piece... yes, it's filling. The taste was rather unimpressive. The sauce was neithersalty nor sweet, but also not overly bitter; it was simply bland. When compared to Little Caesar's, others who had this with me,myself included, would have preferred Little Caesar's. Read more
Outstanding! The food is always fresh and delicious. The pizza is tasty. The meatball sub was hot and full of flavor. I wanted... something sweet, they had a lot of options to choose from. I got a variety of Italian cookies; each one was better than thelast. The tasted like they were made that day. They were the best I have ever had. They must be homemade, I could tell they usehigh quality ingredients. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. I can?t say enough positive things about Verdi?s. Try itout! Tell a friend! Read more

Specialty flours, meats, cheeses and pastas along with all of the olives, toppings, oils and frozen selections you could want.... The bakery cookies all looked delicious and the sandwich board descriptions were mouth watering. Read more

We have not been to Verdi's since before COVID and boy have they gone down hill!! The pizza is no longer amazing and the Italian... cookies are awful. Once there was a case full of a great selection of delicious Italian cookies; the pignoli cookies and rainbowcookies were stellar. Last time we were there forget about the pignoli cookies there were none to be had what pittance ofselection of cookies and the rainbow had such an artificial taste I would not let my daughter finish them(not that she evenwanted to)!! What happen??? NO WAY will we be back for those inedible offerings. Read more

Nice little deli where you can fresh made subs, cookies, and get lunch meat sliced. You can also purchase homemade pasta and... bread dough from the freezer section! Try the Sicilian pizza! Read more

Today was my first time in the shop and it was fantastic. I bought 2 slices for my hubby and a Muffuletta for myself for later.... It was fantastic...and huge for the price! If I lived closer, this would be my spot! I bought their sauce for my own homemadepizza tonight and I am looking forward to it! Read more

WAY OVERPRICED 11 for a lasagna 7 for salad and 9 for the sandwich. All was tasty but I just bought lasagna of the same size for... half the price at Alesci's. And the horseradish sauce was strong enough to clear my sinuses which is perfect. The prices are thereason for the low rating. Judge for yourself. Read more
