“This was a wonderful experience for my stepson and I. Christy was probably the nicest waitress I have encountered in my life. Answered all questions we had, made accommodations requested by a 6 year old with 0 hesitation or annoyance, the food was great and came out as quickly as the bread, my stepson had requested an additional side not listed on the kids menu and she didn't even bat an eyelash making it happen for him. Fairly priced, amazing atmosphere, they deserve all the extra recognition they've been getting lately and then some!! We will definitely be back, time and time again.“

“Tried Pizzaro’s Pizzeria for the first time. My wife and I shared a large antipasta salad and a large cheese pizza with garlic, half pepperoni and half broccoli. Everything was great. While this is more a takeout place they have large booths and the service was excellent. The salad was awesome and so large we took 1/4 of it home. The pizza was excellent. Thin crust with a delicious sauce. I’m not a fan of the outer crust but this was so good I ate everything. I highly recommend their pizza. We have to go back and try their subs and meals as I witnessed many people getting these and pizza for takeout. I give it five stars. We will be back.“

“Great Pizza“

“We were traveling through the arena on Hwy 84 at 6 am and wanted coffee. Caffe Italia was the only place open so we drove into Waterbury. Winding our way there we almost decided to turn around and then…there it was. This was like walking into a little Italian neighborhood hangout….with EXCELLENT espresso! At 6 am there was a group of local Italians, reading papers, playing cards and generally sharing the days news. It felt like being at home with family. Great atmosphere! Lots of specialty Italian food, cheeses etc. Super nice guy who made our espresso. We would definitely stop in again for more!“

“You can’t beat them, local, great food and fast.“

“Food is honestly amazing. From the stuffed shells, to their homemade meatballs; their cauliflower crust is awesome, and so is their stuffed shrimp pizza. Sounded weird to me and everyone said I must try it..: wow… they were right!! We are guilty of eating here 4 times in past 9 days ?. My kids love it and I’m PICKY with pizza and Italian food especially growing up in Connecticut. Great place and the staff is always accommodating. Thank you“

The man working there, may be the owner was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely suggest people come here and support a good business ?“

“Great food service and extremely reasonable prices. I got corned beef dinner and my husband got a pizza. Left overs for days. our bill was less than 50.00. it's cheaper than making it at home.“

“An amazing place to get some exquisite traditional real tasting Italian food. Their penne, El vodka is very delicious. Also their meatballs are great and their sauce is A1 and thats coming from an Italian,I know.

There’s not many good spots in Waterbury these days but this A1“
