1/2 inch of steak!!!!
J L.

Well, finally a great cheese steak pizza... loaded with steak not sprinkled on. Cheese and mushroom added to enhance this delicious pie. Delivery was quick and friendly. Will be back soon!

Badger's Island Pizzeria makes decent pizza and it's a cute little place. The slices seemed a little small but the fact that you can order pizza by the slice is a big plus. Toppings are fresh & my guess is that all slices start off as cheese pizza and are then made to order with whatever topping you want. My wife thought they skimped on the sauce but I didn't notice. One of the cool things about this pizzeria is the location. They're across the street from Hebert Brothers, which is one of the best local spots to pick up some seafood. Although I wasn't blown away by the pizza, it's hard to seriously judge the place based on a couple of reheated slices so I'll be back. Maybe next time I'll go for a chicken parm sub or some linguini with meatballs. And they're open for breakfast. Until 11AM, you can get the usual omelets, pancakes, french toast, etc. If you're hungry while traveling between Portsmouth and the Kittery outlet malls, you'll probably get the best deal at Badger's Island Pizza.

Excellent pizza can't wait to come here again. So much cheese and so tasty. Restaurant is kinda on the small side though.

Best pizza within 50 miles of the Maine/New Hampshire border. Bonus is they serve beer/wine and have lobster rolls!

Stop in for the excellent bargain 'lobsta' roll. Return for the pizza. These guys are a bit strange but GOOD.

A friend recommended this spot when I visited Portsmouth ... knowing full well that I love dive…read morebars and vintage places. I would say this qualifies as both. The pizzas are a lot more expensive than I thought an individual-sized bar pie would be ... and the pizza was honestly nothing I couldn't make at home in a toaster. However, the 70's atmosphere didn't dissapoint. The best part about this place ... other than the fantastic waitress ... was the ice cold beer. It comes in a frosted mug and is some of the coldest beer I've had on draft. The prices weren't terrible at about $5 - $7 per glass, although the glasses seemed a little small. 12 ounce maybe. The best of the pizzas we ordered was the roasted garlic pie. The garlic was sweet but also had the typical garlic taste. Hamds down, I woukd order this again. The hamburger pizza was the worst of the bunch with dry, tasteless burger crumbles on it. I was surprised to see so many good reviews about it. Everything else was just okay. Next time, I'll try one of their more intrtesting pies like the bratwurst one. A one-topping pizza was $15 - $16 and was about the size of a frozen Cape Cod pizza from the supermarket. About the size of a dinner plate and enough for one person ... probably not to share. I heard interesting things about the wings bit I am not a fan of 'heat challenges', so we skipped those after hearing another customer say they could barely finish one due to the pepper. Overall, if you want to feel like you are in the late 70's/early 80's, this is the no frills vibe you'll get. Except in the 1970's the cost of one pizza today could buy dinner for an entire sports team back then. This place gets my recommendation, especislly if you like a thinner/crisper crust and well-done cheese/toppings. Places that have been around since Gerald Ford was President are a rare thing these days, especially off the highway in a town like Portsmouth.

Roaming the streets of Portsmouth without a care in the world while enjoying the lights and sounds…read moreon a cold winter's eve, the thought of carbs laden with luscious melted cheese beckoned me like a siren's song. First stop, busy. Second stop, twas still busy. Third stop, the word Napoletana caught my attention. One of my favorite styles of pizza, I didn't even think twice to verify the legitimacy of their offerings and walked right through the door and sat by the bar (skipping the long wait for a table). Two bartenders, night and day in their demeanor. One was rather calm and quiet BUT very polite and efficient. The other, rude and inattentive. I'm glad (and thankful) that the former of the two waited on my side of the bar. It was very busy and the atmosphere was filled with celebratory cheer. Everyone seemed to be having a great time. Food came at a reasonable time based on how busy things were. Bartender 1 checked in often to make sure everything was good. Thank you again. Mussels fra diavolo was cooked well and to the right texture. Sauce very buttery, salted well and with just a little heat (not spicy at all like the name implies). Toast was a little too toasted, lol. However, when the pizza arrived, is when I realized that names are just names. This is not Napoletana pizza. While the ingredients were an amazing combination on their Fichi pizza, the soggy center was an absolute letdown. Mushy dough is a tad much to accept. And now enters bartender 2 at the end of my meal after awesome bartender 1 had waited on our side this whole time. From a foot away while talking to another patron at the bar, he literally tossed the guest check presenter toward me without making any effort to actually place it down professionally. I've not had any interaction with him to warrant this behavior and would have rather ended this evening thanking bartender 1 for his kind service. That said, I left wondering WTF I just walked into based on a name that didn't live up to its name at all. Such a shame. Beautiful place, great concept and menu, poor execution overall.
