“We love Parkside pizza. We have tried most of their menu and everything is delicious. We are regulars and food is always consistent and staff is awesome. Great place to eat in or get take out.Dietary restrictions: Have plenty of options for dairy free.“
“So it's a bit of a throwback to roadside bars of the 80sSimple sparse seating. Large ish u shaped bar to one side. Several TVs but most of the space is dedicated to a dance floor for live music.The service was ok,the food was above average well made but uninspired. A basic quick bite or stop for a drink that is well priced but simple.“
“Solid across the board but it won't blow your mind. The sarsaparilla root beer was an interesting beverage that tasted closer to a life saver than traditional root beer. The fried mozzarella was crispy, salty, fresh, and flavorful. A solid 7.1/10. The burrata margherita pizza was most delightful when eating bites with the burrata, was very tomato sauce forward and on the sweeter side, with a solid crust. Nothing mind blowing here, but you could do a lot worse. 6.5/10. The calzone w/ meatballs benefited from the solid dough used in the pizza and the ricotta was very smooth and light (like it was whipped) and the other cheese was nice, but the meatballs had a strong anise flavor which really dragged down the dish. Even removing the meatballs from the scoring, it would be a 6/10 at best. Meatballs were a 1/10. All together, you won't be disappointed by the food but there is definitely room for improvement both on some major objective fronts and on the margins.Would recommend coming prior to 6pm on a Saturday. We were here around 5:15pm and had no wait and a small crowd. By 6pm the restaurant had a wait.“
“I cant say enough good things about Craft Pizza, I've been a customer since I moved here in September and they have never disappointed. They go above and beyond, tonight I accidentally ordered a full pepperoni pizza instead of half cheese half pepperoni. When they called to check in, the pizza had already been made...and they went as far as to make me a small cheese for my vegetarian sister. They are so incredibly kind and make amazing food. Thank you!! <3“
“I come for the gyro and bacon cheeseburger platters; not a fan of Greek-style pizza (Neopolitan all the way!). Besides a couple minor order glitches, I've always been pleased with the friendly and attentive service, food quality, flavor, freshness, portions and price. I've only been there at pretty quiet times, but there's constant take-out foot traffic regardless of when I go, which is a good sign in my book.“
“I was surprised when we got there, looks like a super typical town-y pizza place tucked in a somewhat dingy plaza. The inside is bright, clean, and not at all what I expected. The service was friendly and very fast. There was a steady stream of patrons but staff kept up well, all seemed to be having a good time. The meatballs in vodka sauce were delicious. Fettuccini Carbonara was flavorful and well balanced. I personally would have had more sauce, but I will just request that for next time. Ravioli are huge and generously stuffed. Highly recommended for a high quality Italian experience in an unassuming location.“
“Always welcoming and quick even for being constantly busy from the Uconn crowd. Known for a variety of specialty pizzas, grinders, and beers on tap - but plenty of regular dinner meals, salads, and apps to choose from with my favorites being the hot nacho dip with mini pierogies and garlic bread with cheese.....“
“Just tried it first time last night and pizza is good, better than most in Manchester. Will be backUpdate:2nd visit, they have one of the best Philly cheesesteak grinders I've ever had in ct. New favorite spot for Philly cheesesteak.Prices are fair, average for the area.“
“"When the promise is broken, you go on living But it steals something from down in your soul" (Bruce Springsteen) If the name of your business promises "Giant Grinders", well you better damn deliver on that promise, right? You'll get no broken promises from CJ's Pizza and Giant Grinders, because their grinders sure do deliver on your expectations. They have 25 different grinders that truly are GIANT and sold in half ($9ish) or whole ($17-$19ish) sizes. Grinders are served with Lettuce, Tomatoes and Cheese, with Peppers and Onions by request. I stopped by for two "half sized" grinders yesterday, a Giant Ham and Provolone with lettuce, tomato, and onions, and an equally Giant Italian Combo with lettuce, tomato, onions, peppers, and jalapenos. The portions were huge. The half grinders are quite big and are piled very high with the goods, so a half of the half will be enough for a great meal. Our two sandwiches ran around $23 after the extras and tax, but we are getting 4 meals out of that $23. They also sell pizzas and some very nice salad varieties and pasta dinners with sausage and meatballs. It's a very nice old school pizza/grinder joint and the folks I interacted with were super friendly and welcoming.“
“I've only had one pizza which was great and several cheese burgers which are off the wall good. They use a fresh beef patty not frozen. Clean, staff are great. Every order has been made as requested. They do mostly take out but there is seating.“
“This place is a hidden gem. Food is always good. Service is fantastic -- K, K and A are always awesome!This is a great spot in the summer when the deck is open to have a drink or appetizer outside.I also have to give ten stars to their Winter Brunch menu -- we went here just the past weekend and it was hands down the BEST brunch we've ever had in town or when traveling. Everything was excellent -- highly recommend the frenched toast. My husband said the Bacon Egg and Cheese he had was the best ever. They are doing it all right!“
“Love going to this well-established neighborhood bar/Italian restaurant. I live fairly close by. I treat myself once or twice a month here. I absolutely love the service, food and portion size. I eat my meal, and always have a take out portion for two more meals. The booths are roomy, and don't get me started on how good the mini baguette rolls are. Readers GO HERE. The bar side is always HOPPING! I may sit in there next time. Watch out!“
“I came here a few days ago with my boyfriend. We had been to the Newington location before. This location is totally different and better. It was busy but we were seated quickly. We ordered a large pizza and some buffalo wings. Our food came quickly. Everything was great! I love this style of pizza. The crust size is perfect. Not too thick , not too thin. The amount of cheese and sauce was great too. It was very lively and there was a little arcade. It would probably be nice to bring kids here. We will definitely come here again.Parking: The parking lot is decent, its not big but its not small either. We came on a Saturday night yet it wasn’t difficult to find parking.“
“This restaurant kept going all through covid and was a lifeline for my family with good food at a time that was very stressful. They earned my continued business because of their faithful service to the community despite challenges. Most of my orders with them have been to go so I can't comment on the service per se. But the times I have been there the service was prompt and enjoyable. Personal size veggie pizza is my favorite.“
“Excellent food.Great service.With 4.6 ⭐service they should be doing DoorDash because they need to get their food out there. The food's way too good for this place to be thii empty.❤️???I really wish they did delivery because I'd probably be ordering weekly.Vegetarian options: Willing to work with what they have.Wheelchair accessibility: Two doors with ground level entrance.“
“This is the only restaurant I have found in the area where the food is consistently good.I have never had a bad meal and I'm a very picky person. Jessica, the waitress is the nicest person and is always happy and in a good mood every time I visit. My favorite is the Market Salad, Grilled Chicken and the Cannoli! I come here once a week for those specific things and it's always on point!“
“We've done dine-in and pick-up at the Manchester, CT location multiple times. We love this place. The food is consistently delicious no matter what is ordered or how it's ordered. I love dining in because it's so bright with natural light, and it smells amazing as only Italian pizzerias can. The service is friendly whether it's extremely busy or you're lucky enough to catch them at a time when it's light service.Orders can be made online or over the phone for pick-up. They have an app too, with coupons. Very convenient.“
“My wife decided to try something different off Door Dash and Hartford Road Pizza won the roll of the dice. And boy did it hit the spot! Will definitely order again. For some reason this pizza reminds me of the pizza from my childhood. Highly recommend!“
“This was our first time trying Alexia's. We ordered a plain, cheese pizza, and it was excellent. The sauce was tasty, full of flavor, without being too sweet or too acidic. The crust was wonderfully crisp, without being charred. I'm not an expert by any means, but I would describe the pizza as "Detroit style." The staff were very friendly. Gluten-free is available as well.“
“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!“
“Tried Georgias for the first time the other night, was looking for a new pizza place to try and decided to try here. Let me start by saying that the selection of pizzas is unmatchable, especially if looking for flavors that might be out of the norm! We tried to Reuben pizza and the loaded French fry pizza and had a hard time deciding which was better- they were both that good! The service is impeccable, we had asked for a side of ranch and it was forgotten, but a server ran out before we left the parking lot to give to us before we left with our pizzas! This will be our new go to pizza place, and we are looking forward to trying more flavors and other options of food as well!“
“It's not entertaining or sporting the restaurant dining experience but by all means my first time there I got a meatball grinder from there and I might have to say it was one of the best I've ever had . I'll return to check out the pizza next time .So for this review i recommend grabbing a meatball sub from this place if you are in the area“
“Amy was the most accommodating waitress.So down to earth.She suggested great menu choices.White pizza was cooked to perfection.The chef salad was sooo fresh!! Parmesan peppercorn dressing was delicious.My Cabernet was a perfect pairing.Will be back again and again!Try it,please!“
“I get pizza here probably once a week. It's Greek style, very delicious and people are nice here. Their fried chicken dinner is amazing! The zing wings are great, especially with the zing hot sauce (ask for it!). It's a pizza restaurant with great options for entrees, apps and grinders as well. Family owned business. Ambiance is a casual pizza restaurant. They have a private room for private events as well. I had a birthday party for my son there once. It was great. Parking gets a little hectic when they're busy.“
“I absolutely love Vernon Pizza! Every single person is always friendly on the phone and in person, even when they're clearly very busy. The food is always hot and delicious. Love the chicken bacon cheddar wranch wrap, philly wrap, salads are huge and great, wings are awesome and did I mention the pizza rocks too?“
“My boyfriend and I ordered the x-large Xtra Cheese pizza last weekend for football and it was so fabulous we just ordered the same today! Both times pizza arrived quick, fresh, hot, and cooked to perfection! Fun to share over playoffs and have leftovers!“
“Perfect little New England spot, just ate there yesterday!The pizza was absolutely amazing, it had a thin, crunchy crust, loads of toppings and was served piping hot within 15 minutes of stepping into the place, and the personal pizza was the size of a regular small at least, it was split between two people and that was plenty.The staff is super friendly and patient, and the atmosphere was really cozy. The place was also clean, and comfortable. I wanted to order another pie!Antonio's is our favorite spot, can't wait to go again. 5 stars all the way.“
“While they aren't perfect and their pizza tends to be too salty/sodium heavy for whatever reason, it is some of the best pizza and Italian food in town. Period. I never have anything from here that I don't love.I first discovered them in Newington and West hartford, where they began when I lived in that area. When I moved back to Manchester and they put a spot here, I was ecstatic. The ingredients are fresh and made to order, and everything is well seasoned. They know how to make a solid white pie and calzone and season their ricotta/cheese blend. My only issue is that the grinders are only 12 inches rather than a 16-inch option. I'd like to see them offer that.The fried mozzarella is tasty but small for what they charge. But these are nitpicking. They also do the best Detroit style pie in town. Overall, I highly recommend it. They just need to curb the sodium in the pies a bit.“
“The staff are all pleasant. Pizza and boneless wings are good. Chicken parm was my favorite but they recently changed the sauce, not a fan now. I feel like there food is going down hill a little.. maybe new cook or food supplier.. grinders have always been on the skimpy side though. When I ordered last week everything was slightly different than it used to be a short time ago. Hopefully they make a comeback.“
“I used to work here like 15 years ago. The quality of the food was fantastic. I see a lot of rude comments people say about Robert and his wife they where so nice to me when I worked there, people have to understand it's a small family business and they have been working hard to give manchester ct good food, so take it easy people.“
“Great pizza! The service is fast and the staff are very nice. I gave it a 3 for atmosphere only because there is limited seating inside and it is a very plain environment. The place is very clean,just small. I would highly recommend Bella pizza for take-out or dining in!“
“I love this spot! It's close buy and has a large menu selection. I have a tendency to always go on the same day and the woman working the counter, Sky, is amazing. Knows the menu and can make suggestions based on your preferences. she is a wonderful waitress and can manage the busy phones and tables all at once! I always have a good time here!“
“The food is absolutely incredible! We had the spinach and artichoke dip to start , which was the best I’ve ever had. Then for entrees we had penne ala vodka with meatballs, and a turkey club with waffle fries. Everything was so tasty and fresh! The owners are very friendly and make you feel at home!“
“Great value for the money. Portion sizes when it comes to slices are larger than most other pizza joints. Flavors are on point. My three year old loves the cheese slices and totally eats 2 slices on Fridays as a treat after a whole week of eating regular food. I love that I can get what toppings I want on my slices. Great joint, unpretentious, consistent with great hours. Parking is my only concern as there is not an abundance of it.“
“Good consistent pizzeria.I love this place but... I cant order the steak and cheese anymore. The last two times the flavor is just off for meat and cheese. I don't know if it's roast beef or shredded steak but it's seasoned terribly for the purpose. I used to love ordering the steak n cheese grinders here. Bummed.Pizza is always on point!“
“Gentleman that took my order was pleasant and just enjoyed his job. I also seen they won best Hartford pizza 2023 which in my opinion is well deserved, I got a slice and hands down the best slice I've had this year and I ea alot of pizzaParking: Plenty of space“
“Such a gorgeous atmosphere. Delicious food. Mike the manager is very personable and caring. It’s perfect for parties. They have a private dining area. The architecture and decorum is very elegant. They also have great deserts and a bar area. The bathrooms are really clean and the girl at the takeout counter is very knowledgeable. Please try this restaurant and tell them Keisha sent you!“
“Based on today’s experience (lunchtime on a Sunday) my pizza slice was freshly made. I was amazed at how soft the crust was! Had a pleasant experience with both workers behind the counter- both friendly and helpful. Keep up the good work guys ?“
“I used to work in a pizza place just like that when I was young. Boy did those memories come back. I loved the smell of the place, the pizza cooking, olive oil, garlic and all of that combined reminded me of the place where I used to work. I was very surprised how good the food was. I eat gluten free because I have to and the pizza was really good and the salad was fresh. I was very impressed and will go back.“
“This is a to go restaurant they do not have seating inside to stay. We enjoy their pizza. Their salads are huge so if it’s just for you definitely get a half they are delicious and well worth it. Their staff is quick and always friendly. I have not used their delivery.“
“I just Want to say everybody that leaves dominoes a A needs to reconsider their extra curriculum activities. You guys are pathetic thank you to my Domino’s driver that drove in the snow. And delivered my pizza in a reasonable amount of time to all idiots that come here to give bad reviews, your mother should’ve spit you on the “
“I recently started getting pizza here every Friday, the pizza here is delicious I get the white spinach and have never had a better white pizza so fresh and the garlic and spinach perfect, my boyfriend got the bacon pizza and it was perfect also, they crumbled the bacon and there was a generous amount of bacon everything hot and fresh!!“
“My family has been going to Coventry Pizza since January upon recommendation from friends. It has quickly become one of our favorite spots and are consistently treated with care by Erica and the staff. The food is reasonably priced and always fresh. Erica goes above and beyond making our three young children feel welcome. They love the homemade brownies! Please support this treasure of a local business.“
“I tried the Greek pizza, large. Fried Zuccini and garlic bread (half).First and foremost Everything was clean and fresh.When I bit into the pizza, I realized this was no ordinary, out of the can, fast food sauces. You can taste a very distinct and spiced flavor in this palor.5 stars.P.S. I did not try any beer.“
“AMAZING!!! As a former chef, I appreciate food professionally cooked, but with a homemade flavor! The attitude of the staff is always welcoming and gracious. And women rule this kitchen!! Not to mention, the reasonable prices and hefty serving sizes! What's not to love?!“
“We had a lovely evening - our server, Julie, was an absolute delight. We had an order of fried cheese sticks, a cheese burger with fries and a medium meat lovers pizza. The cheese sticks and fries both were really good and crispy. The burger was juicy but not undercooked. The pizza was wonderful with plenty of toppings and cheese. I particularly enjoyed the sauce. While the interior is a bit dated, everything was super clean, and the staff were all very kind. We had a nice conversation with our server as well, and we really enjoyed ourselves. Will definitely come back.“
“I love the pizza from Sal’s. I have been ordering from them for years now and was never disappointed. I love the sauce in their pizza, the amount of toppings and the thickness of the crust. Pepe’s is down the road from me, but I’ll drive farther for Sal’s pizza. It’s the best for me in Manchester/South Windsor area.“
“Last night my husband and I attended a function at Georgina’s for the first time and we loved the food and the atmosphere. Harold was easy to work with on the event and I can tell he takes a great pride in his work and in making the customer happy. We will definitely be back to eat there was a family!“
