Pistarro's

I happened upon Pistarro’s while walking around downtown Frederick and needed a late lunch. I’m so glad I stopped in. Service was quick without feeling rushed, which I appreciated. The atmosphere was warm and comfortable. It had that relaxed wine-bar-meets-Italian-spot feel that makes you want to sit and stay a while. I ordered the gluten-free Margherita pizza and it was honestly wonderful. The crust was cooked perfectly, not soggy, not dry. The sauce tasted fresh, the cheese was balanced, and the basil on top just made it feel simple and done right. You wouldn’t feel like you were missing out choosing the gluten-free option. I also had the roasted beet and goat cheese salad, which was beautiful and fresh. The beets were tender, the goat cheese creamy, and everything tasted thoughtfully pu

Oh my gosh this place is excellent! We had pizza and lasagna and sat at the pizza oven seating area- fun! The lasagna was PHENOMENAL. Try it!! Lemon drop martini was prefect, too. Will return!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Pistarro’s Ristorante Pizzeria Napoletana – Frederick, Maryland If you’re looking for solid Italian food and decent wood-fired Neapolitan-style pizza in Frederick, Pistarro’s is absolutely worth your time. This has been a go-to spot for my wife and me whenever we’re craving Italian. We’ve both lived in Italy, so our expectations are fairly high. No — it’s not Italy (let’s be honest, Italy sets the bar ridiculously high 😄), but for Frederick, this place comes impressively close in quality and execution. We’ve been dining here since 2021, not constantly, but consistently — and we’ve never had a bad experience with the food. The quality has always been reliable. From appetizers like the fried calamari (which is absolutely fantastic) to their pasta dishes, everything has been well-p

This was our first time there very impressed the food reminds you of the Sunday Italian dinners. The red sauce and Alfredo is also really good and would really recommend on anything. Our server Julio was attentive and helpful with suggestions. The drinks an hors d'oeuvres were also great.

Me and my dad had a great first time here. Food was great! The crust on this pizza was definitely top notch! Parking was difficult for us, but that’s always a thing in downtown Fredrick. Kids look to be ok for coming, because there is a playground right next to the restaurant. We also had a really good server! We forgot her name sadly though 🤪 the food also came really fast! Overall, this restaurant is great! 5 stars!
