Delicious, and perfectly executed. 12 pieces of regular Sicilian with onion, hot, crispy on the edges, and little char here and there. Just the right amount of sauce, onion, and cheese. The dozen wings Hot were plump, juicy, perfectly deep fried, and the sauce isn't oily nor did it separate. Classic move to put a few holes in the lid of the wing takeout so they don't get soggy. Adding Ceccoli's to the regular rotation, might be a new number 1, to do so they'll have to pull it off twice in a row for me to not think it was beginners luck.
Update: followed up on my prior visit and FINALLY, a place that gets it right - more than once. Ceccolli's expertly cooks the bottom of the dough, gets the thickness just right, with a perfect amount of sauce/onions/cheese. Ordered enough to have lunch the next day(pic). Their wings are spot on.
Update: has been declared new #1
Very tasty pizza. The price doesn't bother me because it's soo good. I normally buy 14 cuts. Pizza is always hot when I get it and just the right amount of sauce and cheese . Crust is nice and crispy too .
THE BEST PIZZA !
I would definitely get it again!
Best pizza in NEPA hands down
I turned 36 years old in April, I can honestly say I’ve been eating Ceccoli's pizza my entire life. It’s one of those things I *have* to have whenever I go home to visit. I have eaten pizza all over the world, and so many have been worthy of praise, but CP is still my best. 🥰
Also, funny thing, I have never once stepped foot inside of the restaurant. 🤣 My family has ALWAYS gotten it for me… so it just feels like a big warm hug every time I eat it on top of it being so frickin’ good.
Had this last year recommended from a friend and I had to come back this year, easily the best pizza I've had, they don't use many seasonings and they don't need to. The ingredients they use are exactly right.
My only regret is I can't fit all 19 slices in my stomach in one sitting.
Been around for years still as good as ever!
My brother said this place makes pizza the old fashioned way. After
returning to NEPA after 10 years in Cleveland, OH I was anxious to try this pizza. I ordered 10 cuts with pepperoni and onions. When they handed me the box I could feel the weight of the product which indicates to me they use real dough, tomatoes and cheese. I got home and took a bite of the most flavorful, tasty and delicious pizza I have had in years. Very rewarding experience. I tried two cuts cold for breakfast Sunday morning with milk and the pizza was even tastier. The cooks at this pizza parlor are dedicated to providing their customers an excellent dining experience. I can honestly say I don't know of a tastier slice of pizza in NEPA. Please keep making Great Pizza Ceccoli Family.'
This pizza is great! Right up there with Victory Pig, Pizza Loven, and Sizzle Pi. You won’t be disappointed! Excellent blend of cheese and sauce. Absolutely delicious! You will especially like this pizza if you like a lot of sauce (I do personally) but it’s not over bearing either. They blend plenty of cheese with it also. Try it!

We stopped in Wilkes-Barre en route from NH to VA. My wife Amy was reading Yelp reviews of pizza places near our hotel. Ceccoli’s caught her eye because of the glowing five-star reviews. Here’s one more:
Ceccoli’s serves pizza by the cut, which turns out to be a rectangular piece of pizza about 5-6” long by about 1.5-2” wide. There’s “red,” which has a really tasty sauce with onion cooked into it (you can get it without onion, too) and cheese. When we stopped, it was $1.35/cut. You can add a topping to each cut for .25 per. We ordered 10 cuts of red with pepperoni and 5 cuts plain. They have specialty pizzas—white, broccoli, and potato—but they were out when I ordered (about 8:30 on a Friday; they close at 9:30).
The pizza has just the right amount of sauce and cheese. It is light and fluffy on top with a delicious, crispy crust. Our son said that it reminded him of fried dough—that’s a pretty accurate comparison.
We also ordered a dozen wings, mild. They were cooked correctly (crispy), big, and crazy inexpensive. A price of $7.50 for a dozen wings of this quality is hard to find in our part of VA. They’re usually over $1 each and not cooked well (I’m a Buffalo NY native so maybe a *little* picky about wings.)
Ceccoli’s is located in an old neighborhood and has parking available. It’s small with a handful of 2-person tables and booths. I ordered on the spot and waited just 25 minutes. Call ahead and you’ll save some time. Our hotel was near the medical center and it was only about 5 minutes away.
If you’re in Wilkes-Barre, treat yourself and check out Ceccoli’s!
Nice Italian pizza joint in a small town. Not much seating mostly for takeouts.
