Plan your event

Booking basics

Pizza caterers book by the date, not the walk-in — popular Saturdays (especially May–October) go months out, so inquire early with your date, venue, guest count, and whether you want full catering or an oven drop-off. Most will hold a date with a deposit and a signed agreement.

A directory can't see anyone's calendar — availability, travel fees, and minimums always come from the caterer directly.

From the reviews

First time trying Lou Umbertos. Stopped by on a Friday afternoon around noon. Place was busy during the typical lunch rush hour. Went with the Spicy Italian pizza and thought it was great overall. Good amount of toppings, cooked well. Very good overall tasting. A little grease, but not bad. Sauce was good.

★★★★☆ — Tim via Google, Oct 2023

Great spot for lunch! The bread for my sandwich was flavorful and the meatballs on it were huge and plentiful. My kid loved the pizza slice and my wife said the crab stuffed mushrooms were delicious and she wants to go back for more. The staff was fast with the food and it's just a great neighborhood joint.

★★★★★ — Harris via Google, Nov 2025

Best pizza in RI. Super thin slices, and great sauce. It takes them a little time to make your pizza but it’s worth the wait.
