This place has the best pizza I’ve ever had. And yes I’ve been to Dean-O’s (which is also really good) The toppings were overflowing, it was cooked like a pizza properly should be and it was quite reasonably priced. My teenage son and I both got full and still took some home. My date (vegetarian) ordered the broccoli fettuccine and it was delicious as well. We all 3 ate for less than $50 (tip included)!!!
The ambiance was also ideal for a quiet date night 😉
This is one of Lafayette's treasures! This Italian Resturant has wonderful entrées and pizza's. It a family Resturant that is warm and welcoming. Alesi's is better than any Italian chain out there period.
Our family has eaten here for generations! It's a place like no other. It's a family run business that has always severed scrumptious food!
I've had Alesi before, usually just pizza. Tried the "feast" pasta special this weekend, and wow: outstanding. Lasagna, tufoli and ravioli was some of the best restaurant Italian food I've ever had. I know it's a Lafayette stall wort, but if you haven't tried there classic Italian dishes, give them a shot. Great experience. Left miserable (but the good kind).
This place makes us feel like family when we eat here. The foods pretty good too. I have never tried their pizza, being from the Northeast I'm a pizza snob. That being said, I like all the dinners I have eaten here over the years
Best pizza I've ever had. Forget ordering anything else.
Fake italian. Food is okay. wish the sauce wasnt sweet
Best pizza I've had since moving here.. What can I say? Pizza around here is bad. (I'm from New Haven, so the bar is high). This is the best I've had in my quest for decent pizza. My only complaint (and this is typical of most pizza places here) is that the "large" is really a medium at 12".
Went there tonight with my husband we liked it it was out first time we went there. The service was pretty good, the price was abit higher than what I am use to paying but it was worth it. My husband really enjoyed the veal, he proclaimed it to be the best veal he ever had. The pizza was greasy, but that wa expected it was like a New York style pizza, my advice is get a couple of napkins and pat off the grease if it bothers you.
WhatsamatterU. Hey, I get the bad reviews. Put them aside. This is not American pizza. This is different. Yup, it's greasy, too much? Blot it with a paper towel. It's thin, I like to fold it. Nothing inventive here but why mess with success. Alesi's has been in Lafayette since the '50s--no need to say anymore. If you don't like it, we got concrete shoes for you!
I was there on a Wednesday night for a church social event. We had a large separate room, and the main dining room was still packed on a weekday night! That's how yummy the food is here! There were approximately 26 of us, and one, yes, 1, a server who did not disappoint. He was quick with the refills, correct with the salad dressing and food orders. The food was served hot with plenty of bread. The restaurant has been there since 1965, I believe. Don't let the building fool you. The owner and staff are friendly, the food delicious, and the wine list broad. We will return for dinner soon.
As a child my parents would take us here and I made such fond memories here. I remember taking my wife here shortly after we got married and now my brother and sister joined me with their new spouses and children to make new memories. The restaurant is almost exactly the same as I remember it. They got rid of the toasted packaged breadsticks and some of the staff have retired but it still has the same great food.
The place has a great selection of wine a wonderful menu that is awesome and the same great atmosphere. I absolutely love this place, the owners and the food.
I was saddened to find out the a good man that used to run the register and frequent the bar I ran a long time ago passed at a younger age than he should have. He was a great man and we sorely missed.
Dining in brought back a ton of great memories and made me happy they have not changed a thing.
Great place for lunch. Had a "works" pizza and some fried ravioli. Me and my girly had a great time. A little on the spicy side but super tasty. Really attentive waiter who was kind and friendly. Would definitely go back if time allows. Warm, cozy Atmosphere, a little dated but I like that. It feels nostalgic.
Our Pizza that we
Specialize is so Delicious!!
Mr. Jordan & Mr. William make it like its on their own menu that they do daily.
Thank you'll, we are very
Pleased & Happy

Anytime I have a friend or family member come into town and the want Italian I take them to Alesi Pizza House. Their red sauce is amazing with a hint of sweetness. I have tried many dishes there, some I would recommend is the Chicken Cacciatore, Seafood Manicotti and Alesi’s Italian Feast which is so much food it will feed two people with leftover.

Maybe it's because I've been eating here literally all my life, but it's my favorite pizza anywhere. I always get The Works which I believe is also called the Mike's Special or something. Their crust is thin, but not the crispy, cracker-like thin, this is the fold-it-at-the-back thin with some flexibility. The only downside is this pizza doesn't keep well as left-overs, otherwise this has been my family's pizza spot since it opened in 1957.
Amazing pizza. This is some of the best pizza I've ever had anywhere. The service is outstanding and the staff is super friendly. Go as soon as they open because it's always full of people.
i ordered two items, spaghetti with meat sauce to go and a ground beef, pepperoni and onion pizza. the pizza was ok, a little dry for me butba good taste. half of that was lunch. for dinner inhad some spaghetti. very nice! give this place a shot, i doubt it will disappoint...cb
oh em gee, i looove how they make their pizzas! i haven't even been able to venture off and try something else because it's so good!! the staff is always friendly and the owners are the sweetest, they let us do a photoshoot on location one morning!!!
Great environment, fair prices and excellent service, the hostess Monica was very friendly and professional and the beer was ice cold I can firmly say I’ll be back.
