Percoco’s πŸ•πŸ

By Carson B Β· February 25, 2025

This story ran in February 2025, so dates, hours, and details may have changed.

Over in Lakewood Ranch, Percoco's Pizza & Pasta has quickly become a local favorite.

I stopped by Percoco’s Pizza & Pasta recently and was really impressed. The menu is straightforward, but it’s clear they put a lot of care into what they serve.

The pizza had a great crust, it’s lightly charred with the right balance of chew and crunch, and the sauce was smooth and well-seasoned.

I also really enjoyed the meatballs, which is high praise coming from someone originally from New jersey.

Everything tasted fresh and well-executed, without any shortcuts. It’s the kind of place that does the classics really well, and I’ll definitely be back.
