Absolutely THE best grinders we’ve had in forever. My veggie and cheese grinder was LOADED with veggies! My husband’s grinder had so much nest he could have created 2 more grinders. Thank you Soula and staff. You are all top notch!“

“Love Holiday restaurant!!“

“We have had food from the new location in Preston Connecticut three times now. They had only been two days, a few weeks, and now a few months when we are here. First impression was the cheese pizza had no taste but the deep dish pep was good. Second impression was similar. Now a few months into establishing, the cheese is delicious. Great sauce and cheese flavor and ratios. Crust is just right. We did have a few pieces of the Detroit/deep dish pep but not all of our deep dish tasted “Smokey.” The best way to explain it is like the smokiness of mezcal tequila. Most of the pep was charred so we suspect it was over cooked or was adjacent to something else in the oven that burnt. Overall, positive experience and in time, we think this restaurant will continue to strive and adjust recipes and cooking techniques to meet or exceed expectations.“

“Everything on the menu is good. Nothing is half assed. Really good food all around/ amazing pizza/ grinders. I’m very picky about my parm grinders and everything here is spot on.“

“Took a trip to DiFiore Ravioli shop in Ellington, CT. They make 15 varieties of homemade Ravioli, sauces, oils, amazing desserts, and more. We picked up the TENDERLOIN & BACON ravioli, and the SHRIMP & ROASTED GARLIC ravioli. They were out of the lobster ravioli, but we picked up the homemade Tiramasu. While there we saw they made gourmet sandwiches, which we ordered and ate outside. They were amazing, so big, we could only eat half (pics taken after we started) Great place, staff were fantastic!! Very nice people. We will definitely return!!!“

“We had such a wonderful experience at Joey’s Garlic! The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the penne a la vodka, shrimp scampi, and fried calamari, and every dish was full of flavor. The portions were huge—definitely family-style! Honestly, one plate would have been enough for both of us, and we still had plenty of leftovers to enjoy at home. The restaurant itself has a beautiful setting with an industrial hipster vibe, warm lighting, and a fun flare that makes the atmosphere really inviting. Service was excellent—our server was both fast and friendly, which made the evening even better. For the quality and size of the portions, the pricing was amazing and very affordable. We truly felt like we got more than our money’s worth. We’re already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu next time!“

“It took a little bit to get the food, but it was worth the wait!“

“My favorite spot to hang out. Been around a long time, very consistent.“

“This Olive Garden was convenient to our hotel and these weary travelers were looking forward to a nice Italian meal. It turned out to be even better than we'd hoped. Our server, Lillianne, was so friendly and professional. She went out of her way to make sure everything about our visit was perfect. The food was excellent, even better than usual, if that's possible. Kudos, Olive Garden and Lillianne.“

“Love this place. They never mess my order up and always great service. I've been coming here for years. They let you breath and relax there. Nothing crazy. Their pizza and Grinders are exelent and the only pizza my family will even wanna order or go to. Here is a photo of my Tuna grinder with extra lettuce that was requested. Again, When in Vernon Ct. Type pauls pizza into your GPS.“

“Food is excellent ownership is friendly and knowing well the food business prices are good definitely will be back“

“We had been looking for a place for lunch or dinner that was local and not a chain. Been driving by it for years and finally checked it out. The decor is a little dated so if classier atmosphere is what you're looking for go elsewhere. If you want well prepared italien food, larger portions, reasonable prices, friendly, efficient waitstaff and in a warm, family familiar setting....you have arrived!“

“They consistently give us great food! One of the local go-tos!“

“My neighbor and I frequent it quite regularly. Their tossed salad is so fresh and delicious and filling. I’m sorry I love wings and theirs are the best around!!!!! We both had them for lunch and will be having the leftovers for dinner tonight. We will definitely be back!“

“Visiting from San Antonio with Connecticut family connections.
Was brought here to enjoy Grinders, as it's not common or a known thing in the south.

Food was amazing. Bread was crisp and warm.
Enjoyed some pickle and eggplant fries as well.
Immensely impressed with them.
Before I knew it. I finished the food
Would definitely come back. Thanks again“

“Thank you Gianni and Georgia. I have never been disappointed with a meal at Georgia’s. The girls,Jackie,Eileen, Barbara joined David and I for a dinner on the patio. What a beautiful evening. Beautiful Georgia opened it just for us. Thank you. There was even enough for brunch today.“

“Been there 3 times and every time the pizza was delicious 😋.“

“First time going here.
It was absolutely amazing. We met the owner, who was the nicest man ever. Our server was so great and the food was beyond amazing. We spent fathers day here and it was absolutely worth it. Id give more stars if possible.“

“Ordered for third time the Bacon,potato cheese broccoli pizza it is the most fantastic pizza! Crust crispy! Try it you’ll agree!“

“While I can't speak to the in restaurant experience, I ordered takeout from here for the first time and I will certainly be ordering again. The chicken and sausage carbonara is so tasty, and the portion size could feed three people. The wings were fried well, and I'm looking forward to trying other flavors. Overall, it's giving the perfect neighborhood takeout spot that will likely be my go to moving forward.“

“Ordered take out. Pizza came out right on time. Ordered the Detroit style pizza with extra pepperoni. They use the small style pepperoni that cups when it gets warm. Also, they let the top layer of pepperoni crushed up and get crunchy and dark brown, absolutely perfect detroit pizza. Very tasty crust.“

“I got the bourbon steak tips and they were really good! The steak and mashed potatoes were awesome - there were some lumps in the mash so I knew it was real potato and not instant mashed which was nice considering the affordable price point for steak tips. The broccoli was cooked great, it was completely unseasoned, not even any salt or oil, but personally I liked this because the steak and potatoes were so rich and flavorful, it was nice to have a bland component so as to not totally be over-salted. I was impressed! It was so yummy despite the fact that I walked home with it during a colder evening. Thanks chef!“
