A hidden gem in Newington. Delicious pizza by the slice. Stopped in with our son in between hockey practices...lots to choose from, owner very friendly, a terrific meal deal option, and really tasty slices. The chicken bacon ranch is a big time winner. Looking forward to a return visit!

This is a takeout review. All food is eaten promptly in the vehicle. I ordered meatballs, chicken Wings, and pepperoni pizza. The meatballs were OK, tender and moist. The wings, sweet chili, were very good, lots of meat and very nicely cooked. The pizza was outstanding. Great crust with a touch of crisp but also chewy. A really nice sauce and a perfect announcement of cheese. Just a great food experience along with a very pleasant man working the front. On a scale from 0-10, I would rate this 9.3.

If I could give this place 10 stars I would! This is my favorite pizza place. My friends and I drive 20 mins for this hidden gem. Not only is their food phenomenal, but they have great deals! I come on Tuesdays for my favorite, potato pizza. The people that run the place are so nice! Definitely check them out.

The is absolutely a hidden gem among the mighty Pizzeria around East Central Connecticut. They have a lot of options when it comes to slices on the go. Absolutely love he variety. Must - CBR (hands down the best CBR around) Classic Margarita (I'm sure you haven't had experience so much flavor in an American Margarita before) Unique - Chicken Pineapple Habanero (Absolutely unique and spot on, just the right heat you need on a pizza) It's a tiny place but has a large menu. Absolutely my go to pizza slice place moving forward.

This place has THE best chicken bacon ranch pizza!! We’ve tried almost all the slices and our favs are cbr, chicken mango habanero and house special, you can skip the garlic knots. Seating is very limited, it’s mostly for takeouts but definitely must try!

Today went in for the first time since I had a Quest, appointment and it's right in the same plaza. Have to say the gentleman that served me was very pleasant and professional attentive to my order request in which, I kinda order more then I could have eaten but hey, took the rest home for my mom's in which it did not go to waste. The food was delicious! Everything I order was fresh and the temperature to my liking as some places the food are luke warm to cold and forgetabouit.... But the gentleman had everything cooked to profection indeed recommend anyone that's in the area to visit this location. They do slice too. I also had a margarita slice forgot to take picture. Indeed .

Tried 4 places around CT and this was the best out of them all. Crust is on point throughout the pizza. I would say maybe add more sauce? Cheese was on point and flavor. Place however needs AC it was hot! But will definitely be a returning customer!
