Village Pizzeria

In 1988 our family's passion for northern Italian cuisine inspired us to open The Village Pizzeria & Ristorante, a small Italian eatery in the small, predominantly rural town of East Galway, New York. Located ten miles west of Saratoga Springs, an Equestrian paradise, this family owned and operated restaurant has become a point of interest, and tourism in the summer months. Although for the locals, the Village Pizzeria has become a mainstay and will continue to be their biggest little secret. This year we celebrate 20 years in the business of serving great food and wine with a passion that we live and breath every day. Our commitment to quality has not changed in 20 years and notably, we still oversee everything. We meet and greet our customers, share; a moment, a hug, a glass of wine while offering; an ear to listen, a shoulder to cry on, and a place to celebrate.

Our holidays in Italy, usually lasting at least three weeks, bring us to some of the most sought after vineyards and knowledgeable winemakers in the world. Our travels inspire new menu items and always offer up several new wine selections for us to bring home and share with our family, friends, and customers. These experiences have quite literally molded our wine cellar into what it is today.

Here we try to offer our customers something that they won't experience anywhere else, a harmonic pairing of food and wine that tantalizes tastes buds. We educate and inform our customers with regular wine tastings and other charitable social gatherings that always seem to revolve around our love of wine. The days of the snobby sommelier are over. Today's wine specialist is younger, better educated and more enthusiastic than ever. Our wine program at the Village Pizzeria is a direct reflection of the passion we feel for food and wine, and it is so fulfilling for us to share that with everyone we meet. A Salute.
