    a person holding a sandwich
    Emily G.

    Wow. Just wow. Fresh baked bread is the first thing you see in the cases when you walked in. That's where I first knew I needed something on that focaccia roll. All of the bread and dough is made fresh here. You can't go wrong. One of my party got a huge fried dough. This isn't the fried dough of fairs. Just like the bread, the dough was made in house and it had great flavor. The sandwich I got had chicken cutlet which was perfectly thin and crispy whiteout being dry. My sandwich ended up being communal since everyone wanted to try it lol. The mozzarella sticks...more like massive triangle...was swoon worthy! The chef came over to check in and ask if we liked the food. He was very kind and attentive. He truly values customer service. They just opened up the second half of the dining room by adding more seating. It is a place that can easily accommodate a group. The restaurant was clean and the well taken care of. This is one of many visits to Antonio's!

    Great value meals. All the meals are reasonably priced for a regular size meal, however these meals are larger the normal servings. The soup that comes with the meal is a large bowl, along with the side of pasta. The escarole soup was delicious. It has just enough spices and the touch of heat and it was very very good. I had the chicken parmigiana. It had two large pieces of chicken covered with mozzarella. The side of pasta was also very good. They serve the meals with homemade, hard crusted bread with a soft center. Off street parking and a great service staff.

    Antonio's On Route 5 pizza and sub shop.They are so much more than pizza and subs,serving appetizers, salads,soups,also pasta, seafood, and eggplant entrées.They do have hot and cold subs, panini's, wraps and stuffed breads as well. Tonight I ordered two large pizzas.One all cheese, half bacon, the other all cheese half pepperoni, half sausage. They had a generous amount of great tasting toppings, but the pizza itself I would consider good, but nothing special. Since their homemade breads looked very good I think the next time I would try one of their subs.

    Clam Fettecini

    Fantastic food, with delicious flavor, texture, and fresh ingredients. Portions leave enough for leftovers at a price you can't beat!

    Olde World Brick Oven Apizza is a New Haven-style pizzeria that opened in North Haven, Connecticut…read morein 1995. It was founded by business partners Bill McCarthy and Joe Houde. McCarthy started making pizza at the age of 13. He received his training by working at local pizzerias such as La Bella's and Sorrento's. Once he reached adulthood, he started a career with the railroad. He worked with the railroad for several years until a physical injury caused him to retire. He went back to pizza-making when he started an eight-year stint at the popular Modern Apizza in New Haven. Eventually, he and Houde partnered up to open their own pizzeria. After 30 successful years, McCarthy and Houde decided to retire and sell the pizzeria. In April 2026, Olde World reopened under the ownership of business partners and chefs Robert Marcarelli, Jared Schulefand and Isarel Lopez. Marcarelli actually started his career working at Olde World, before going on to study at the Lincoln Culinary Institute. Schulefand started his career working as a busboy at Modern Apizza, before going on to study at Johnson and Wales University. He now owns Home Restaurant in Branford. Marcarelli & Schulefand both have their own restaurant consulting business (Pi Restaurant Consulting), and they co-own Supreme Seafood in North Branford, the Shanty in Branford, the Galley in Guilford, and NEBCO Kitchen in Branford. Lopez was a longtime pizzaiolo at Next Door Pizzeria in New Haven and nearly bought it before a deal fell through and it closed. In addition to New Haven-style thin crust apizza, Olde World also makes calzones, Italian entrees, pasta dishes, subs, stuffed breads and salads. I recently visited Olde World after they re-opened under the new ownership. I had eaten their pizza multiple times over the years and always loved it. How would the pizza taste now with the "new guys"? The new partners prepared a variety of different pies and dishes for my small group to sample. The classic "Mozzarella" (red sauce, mozzarella, pecorino) still tasted just as good as it ever did. In addition to the classic offerings, the partners have added some more modern twists to the menu, such as "Mashed Potato" (white, mashed potato, caramelized onions, bacon, garlic), "Crab Rangoon Pie" (white sauce, crème fraîche, imitation crab, sweet chili drizzle), and "Spring Fling" (asparagus, seacoast maitake mushrooms, ramp pesto, mozzarella, goat cheese, Szechuan chili honey). The latter (a special of the month) was my favorite of the tasting! We were also treated to some "Penne, Sausage & Broccoli Rabe" and "Burrata Salad" (asparagus, spicy capitol, herb marinated artichokes, tomato confit, baby greens, garlic crumb, balsamic truffle). Paired with some local Foxon Park sodas, we were treated to quite the feast! Not only is the food just as good as it ever was... it's even better now! I must tip my hat to our excellent hosts. I plan on coming back again and again!

    I've been coming here for years but this visit was different. First thing was they had a hard time…read moretaking my order but that's fine. Second thing was the pizza dough? It seemed so tough to chew not sure what's going on with that. Third was the over charred pizza. I'm from New Haven and like some char but this was excessive. I'll wait a little bit before I go back but I wouldn't say I'm done with this place just based on all the past great pizzas. Fix whatever is job on with the tough dough.

    We drove over an hour from southern RI to try out this place…read more Steve and John welcomed us in and gave us a tour. There's about 8 booths- It's a bit on the small side but the food was fantastic. Hubby and I were born and raised in NYC. It's been so long we've had really good pizza. John and Steve brought out pie after pie. We had the plain, plain with grated cheese, tomato with fresh mozzarella, clam with bacon, mangia special, Stevie Gs apple pizza, mashed potato pizza. We brought in our homemade suppi and they put it on some of our pies. We also tried the eggplant Parmesan and garlic knots. The plain pies, mashed potato, and the mangia special were my favorites but really everything there was top notch. There is nothing that I wouldn't order again. The crust is nice and crunchy. Good char on it. Sauce was delicious - not sour like straight from a can. Toppings were better than I expected for a small pizza spot. Sausage was tasty. Mushrooms were fresh not tinned, fresh tomatoes and basil. Tons of clams on the pizza. Bacon was thick sliced and left almost whole. Eggplant was sliced thin. Generous with the toppings. Even better than their pizza- is their service. It was my first time meeting them and I felt like an old friend. They were so friendly, chatted with us, told us stories -- we really had a good time. The older gentleman who brought out the food and took away the empty trays was very thorough- checked in on us regularly. Mangia Apizza is easy to miss - connected to Vick's Cafe (really it's a bar). Stop in and grab a pizza. You won't be sorry. And if you want someone to talk your ears off - stop in and eat at a booth. I wish they were closer!!
