Geppetto Bethesda, MD Review, as the old saying goes, I guess all good things must come to an end! After years of counting on Geppetto’s pizza to deliver good quality pizza in the Montgomery County, Maryland area that has now vanished. While over the years, the quality of the pizza has gone downhill, along with the quantity of toppings, their price has continued to climb up-hill…. Can you say over priced!!! What has really changed over the years is their quality of service or should I say lack there of….. Here is a prime example….Sunday, October 6th, 2013 I place an order for one large cheese pizza at 6:37PM. At 8:03PM I call Geppetto’s and inquire about the status of my order. Not even saying they are sorry for the delay they tell me that the pizza is on its way. I live less than 2 miles from Geppetto’s in Bethesda, MD at 8:34PM still nothing….So I call back again and inquire about the order, they give me the same answer….it is out for delivery…OK you old me that 30 minutes ago…So it has now been 2 hours to deliver one large cheese pizza 2 miles… So they connect me to the manager that tells me they are busy and she takes my number down and tells me that she will call me back right away with an answer. Still 24 hours later no call back or no pizza delivered…just left me high and dry…… Now would you be happy with that type of service? So in the future if you are looking for some place to eat or delivery service…just say NO to Geppetto’s and save yourself the hassle…… What was once a good place to eat and order food has slid downhill past the ranks of Pizza Hut!

Riding off their former glory would be a suitable title and designation for this establishment, when you enter the restaurant you are greeted by antiquated pictures of Bill Clinton eating here in days more than likely a decade past. The menu touts they once served a meal at the White House, a far echo from the now nearly deserted restaurant I am sitting in. The word Italian may perhaps be a mis-nomenclature as most of the menu is bland and toned down, it appears the chef has forgotten the organic definition of the word "Al Dente". I ordered the Chicken Alfredo and was greeted by a loose and water logged sauce spread over what look to be lumped pasta. The meal was edible, but wasnt justified by the upscale prices. I will say that the free roll of bread they present you with helps keep you busy during the extensive period you will be waiting for service - - even in this mostly empty dining room. Perhaps they should consider waiters who have at least demonstrated somewhat of a proficiency in the English language?

A lot of what we ordered didnt have any flavor. It was still okay, but I needed to add salt to everything. The restaurant is quiet small, but its cute, and it wasnt crowded when we went. The service was okay, they didnt talk to us or tell us how we are doing. I dont know if it was because English isnt their first language. I didnt have a horrible time, but I dont think my family and I will be attending again with the food being moderate but the price being expensive.

Worst experience ever trying to get a simple pizza delivered. NEVER attempt to have food delivered from Wildwood. The pizza was average at best and not to mention the garlic bread was burned and they didnt even provide the marinara sauce they promised. Overpriced and completely disappointed - huge fail on dinner tonight!!

Quality/taste of food didnt match high prices. Soup, caesar salad, and pizzas were bland. One of those meals youre disappointed in middle of eating, wish youd gone elsewhere. They need to revamp menu or theyre going to be like Hamburger Hamlet, closed and not able to compete with newer, high-end restaurants in the area.

Gepettos pizza is still around! This place has been around for more than 30 years and is exactly the same except for the name change. Dont miss the delicious sicilian pizzas, particularly with their unique mini pepperoni. Great to see this classic surviving in a new incarnation.

Ahi tuna salad was not great, but good. Dust floating atop the wine. Pizza was average. The mussels in broth were quite delicious. Nothing that would draw me back for a second visit.

Waited ten minutes without even an acknowledgement. I even called them from my DROID trying to get their attention. The owner walked right by me ... what a PoS

Food was pricey, but the overall quality was good. Staff was professional and not rude at all. Service at lunchtime was fairly quick as well.

Service was stuffy. No WiFi and high prices. Soup tasted like Campbells out of a can. Not for me!
