“We had a reservation for 7 people. We showed up at the time expected and our table was waiting for us. We ordered a couple of small plates, salads, pizzas, beer, wine, soda. Everything was delicious, very tasty. It was a little busy so the waiter set our expectations early about wait time for pizza. Will definitely be back when in area.“

“Moodus DaVinci - Okay, as if I haven't spammed the internet enough already about this place, I HAVE to post about my wrap. I got the Chipotle Steak wrap. It was a decent size portion. I saved half for lunch today. The best part? it was JUST as delicious upon reheat as it was last night!!! it wasn't soggy. It did not fall apart. Most importantly, it was so so good!!! There's nothing I would have added or taken away. I can't wait to get it again! Since I haven't left a review on this page specifically yet, I'll add that the wings here are phenomenal!! There's many kinds but garlic parm is my fav. So, if you're looking for a good wing spot in this neck of the woods - look no further!“

“Stopped through randomly driving from NY to MA because it was the fastest detour from our trip - holy cow I'm glad we did, got the bacon cheddar wrap and honestly it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Totally blew past my expectations for a little hole in the wall off the highway.“

“Been going to Freddy’s forever! Haven’t found any other place that will beat the taste of Freddy’s original Greek taste since Freddy worked at the original ABC Pizza when we were in high school! Still the best! I have to drive a few miles but it’s always worth it!“

“Great restaurant and great staff!!“

“I can’t say enough about Tommy’s Pizza Palace Vasili’s Greek Everything salad dressing!! I first came upon it at a craft show at Wadsworth mansion! It’s so delicious that it has become my mission to drive from Stamford to Middletown to pick it up! I grabbed two bottles on 8/17 and made the mistake of sharing with my family so I have to go back this week for more! I can’t wait for it to hit a local store near me! If it doesn’t I will absolutely continue to make the trip! Try it - you will not be disappointed! Thank you to everyone at Tommy’s Pizza palace - all of your food is amazing!!“

“I don’t leave reviews often, however Pineloft has become possibly my favorite place to get pizza. I’m not from this area but I’ve came here about ten times over the past couple years and It’s consistently cooked just right and always very tasty. The customer service is always great and pick up time is quick. I HIGHLY recommend checking them out!“

“The best service and food hands down. Andrea is truly the best 💜“

“The pizza here has been outstanding since they have reopened. I love New Haven style pizza, but the newfound popularity has impacted the amount of Greek style Pizza places. This place is one of the best. The service is excellent. When we went they did not serve alcohol but we could bring in and there happens to be a liquor store next to them. My wife and I enjoyed a bottle of wine with our meals. The pizza is a good value, with a large one topping around 30 bucks. It has a nice dining room with booths, but most of their business appears to be takeout. Took about 20 minutes for the pizza, which was perfect! The location, in the center of Middlefield, is convenient for take out, and the slightly thicker slices reheat well!“

“Ravioli was very good. Homemade Tasty sauce but I do like a little more pepper in my sauce“

“Can’t even believe how Abe from this restaurant spoke to me! I ordered a pizza for my kids and it came without sauce and when I called to explain, it was nothing but RUDENESS! He had the audacity to tell me I had to apologize to him and his counter girl before he would replace. He told me he didn’t care if he lost a customer, I had no idea who he was. He hung up on me and when I called back and asked for the owner to explain he started yelling and had his employees in the background yelling he was the boss and I had no idea who I was talkin to and I should find out before talking to him and hung up on me again! I called the Milford location and asked who the owner was, his name is OZ and he sounded like this was certainly not the 1st time he had a complaint. He apologized over and over but honestly I cannot believe the things he said! SMH worst customer service EVER GHETTO!!!!!“

“My third order delivery this time wowwwwww amazed the quality the taste no pork better no worries not here get beef bacon turkey pepperoni from the pizza to wraps to kids friendly option and dinner specials. I’m one deliciously satisfied, never disappointed happy customer😋🥰👍🏽“

“Small neighborhood pizza place that also provides delivery service. You can watch the prep as it is an open establishment. They also have a selection of bottled or canned pops in various sizes (12oz-2 liter).
Thumbs 👍🏾 recommend.“

“very family oriented and great food!cant wait to go back thanks again guys !😁“

“Sfogliatelle! They offer it frozen! Get it, pop it in your air fryer until golden brown and enjoy feeling like you are in heaven. It’s filled fully with great quality cheese and orange peel. It’s frozen so you can keep it on hand and feel free to lie to your friends that you made it. Best enjoyed alone with a cup of coffee on a quiet morning.“

“Was there recently while in town for a youth hockey tournament. The sign popped out so we gave it a try. Twice. Was not let down either time. Was is it the best pizza I’ve ever had ? No. But it was pretty close. We brought the boys back for a snack between games and they loved it. The owner was awesome even asking my kid if he wanted to scrub up and watch him make a pizza with his own toppings. Extremely friendly and awesome decor. Would highly recommended visiting if you’re in town. All of the staff on hand were incredibly polite. Loved the NY and New Haven blend.“

“Vero's never dissapoints! Best broccoli rabe pizza, amazing local farmed sausage, delicious dinners & oh my god the bread! Fabulous!“

“My husband and I ordered a pizza to go from Carini’s for the first time under their new management. We ordered the Smog pizza. It had sausage, mushrooms, peppers and onions as toppings. The pizza was absolutely delicious! It had just the right amount of mozzarella. The sausage was so tasty and the mushrooms, onions, and peppers were fresh and cooked perfectly. Having grown up in New Haven, I loved that the crust was on the thinner side. I highly recommend Carini’s! We look forward to ordering more pizza or stopping in for dinner some night!“

“Awesome spaghetti and meatball pizza and Hawiian too! Dave is Great guy m/“
