Arthur's name is still on the menu

Arthur's name is still on the menu

In 1952 Arthur Alimonos came over from Greece with empty pockets. He spent years in New York kitchens working on his marinara and his pizza crust before opening a place of his own. His favorite pizza is still on our menu, and the Classic Country Special has been famous here since '77.

The food here is absolutely delicious and mostly homemade! The staff is so friendly, and the manager you and came out and thanked us for eating here. I had a shrimp dish, and my husband has lasagna, and both of them absolutely melted in your mouth will definitely be coming back! They are also one of the few places ... that still has bread that comes with your meal, and it is homemade and very light and tasty

The owner Perita is very sweet and welcoming. She is usually there working and helping the other staff. It feels like a warm family atmosphere. I ordered a custom pizza with a ridiculous amount of toppings, which they happily accommodated. It came out delicious! Thank You

Found our new favorite pizza far from home! We had the margarita, awesome four cheese, and country classic pizzas and they were 10/10! Perfect crust, fresh mozzarella, and amazing atmosphere. Quick service on a Saturday night. Great place for families or even maybe a date night spot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What dishes are you best known for?

The one people drive here for is the Greek salad, our house specialty since 1977 and still served with homemade potato salad. Close behind it is the Classic Country pizza — famous since '77, with pepperoni, ham, Italian sausage, mushroom, green pepper and onion. From the oven we also send out five-cheese lasagna under béchamel, chicken parmigiana grilled or fried, veal parmigiana with homemade marinara, and a stromboli rolled tight with the sauce inside.

What type of cuisine do you serve?

Greek-rooted Italian cooking, the way our founder learned it in New York kitchens. That means pizza on homemade marinara, salads built on feta and kalamata olives, and grinders on bread we bake ourselves. There is seafood too — certified gulf grouper, shrimp scampi, scallops and mussels — and a dessert case with cannoli, baklava and tiramisu.

What services do you offer?

Our dining room on US Hwy 19 N is open from 11:00 AM every day, so dine in works for an early lunch or a late dinner — every dinner comes with a side Greek salad. If you would rather eat at home, takeout is usually ready in 20 to 35 minutes and delivery runs about 45 to 60. Call (727) 524-9700 and we will start it.

What areas do you serve?

We cook out of one kitchen, at 14820 US Hwy 19 N in Clearwater, and the highway puts most of mid-Pinellas within a short drive. We regularly feed guests from Largo and Pinellas Park to the south, Seminole and Kenneth City across the county, and Clearwater Beach when the sand lets go of you.
