Boyfriend and I stopped in for Apizza we dined in The pizza was fantastic wasn't our first time ordering from Barton's Thin crust charred on bottom similar to New Haven style pizza yummmmm Met the owner a sweet animal lover whom rescued Lyla the raccoon. Took care of the baby and made sure Lyla would be safe, When you pick up your pie be sure to purchase a pin with Lyla the raccoon on it all proceeds go to the rescue Again you won't be disappointed I highly recommend this place. Reasonably priced. Immaculately clean. We will be back soon read more

Amazing A-Beetz in Downtown Derby! I put this up against the big boys! BYOB! We had a salad, it was huge, fed four of us with more to spare. Meatball appetizer, balls were soft, balls were tasty... Balls were delicious! We had a half meatball and cheese and a bolognese and ricotta (The Dolly). OMG! Toppings were fresh and the sauce was legit! Crust is out of this world. Get your butt to Derby and grab a pie. read more

Ordered the Hawaiian pizza for pickup. Ordering was good. Found menu online. I was happy to see they are not pineapple haters as some of the local pizzerias are. They have several crust options, we chose the New Haven style thin crust. I like the tomato sauce, it tasted very fresh. The toppings were well spaced and there was enough, a bit too much cheese for me but I'm sure we could ask for light on that. I likely will not be ordering again though because of all the charred corn meal on the bottom. It was very messy and foul tasting. read more

I'm not from the area but I found this place next to the highway and I'm glad I did. I think it might be new, but it was good and affordable. The pricing is to the whole dollar which I had assumed meant it was one of those relatively fancy places with smaller portions, so I ordered a small pizza and got a side of meatballs to make sure I would be full. Yes I was more than full, and I ended up sharing half of my pizza with the construction crew I was with. The pizza is a thin crust and the toppings were just right. The 2 meatballs were huge, tasted uniquely homemade, and came with plenty of sauce. I'm definitely going to plan on going here again next time I need food in the Derby area. read more

Bartone's Apizza is a newly opened Pizza restaurant and the establishment had a soft opening with just pizza and Calzones. The restaurant is still going through some renovations so the restaurant is not completely done. My kids and I decided to check it out since we love pizza. We ordered a large Pizza with half Pepperoni. The Pizza was delicious. Crispy edges, very flavorful, and the sauce was delicious. The large was definitely big enough for my kids and I and we couldn't even finish it. I think we found another place to get some great pizza. The customer service was great and we look forward to coming back soon. read more

Heard great comments about Bartone's from numerous New Haven style apizza aficionados. So I went. Everything about Bartone's was phenomenal. My expectations were definitely met. Perfect New Haven style apizza. And the place is clean and the restroom was spotless. Both signs of a very well managed restaurant. Service was outstanding. Met the chef / owners. Family run. Very good people. Will return. read more

Large pies are really large. Was ok, base of pizza was crunchy due to the burnt cornmeal I believe. Got a bacon pie and it lacked bacon flavor which was weird. Sausage pie was good, could have used a little more on it but good. Cheese pie was good just a little salty. I would def go back as they are new and I am sure they are working out the kinks but nice people and good location. read more

I wondered why I hadn't heard of this place, but it seems they haven't been in business for a full year yet. I saw that they are using "Apizza" in their name so i had to try it. To those who are calling the crust "burnt", you don't know what New Haven style Apizza is. It's supposed to be charred, thin, and have some crispiness. I love the big name Apizza places in and around New Haven. I ordered a large two-topping today from Bartone's (only $24.70) and it is truly a large 18-inch +pizza. It barely fit in the box. Aside from the quanity and great price, this place has perfectly nailed it on the charred crust and undercarriage that genuine Apizza is supposed to have. On top of the crust, everthing was very good. The cheese seems different than what other Apizza places use. It doesn't taste bad at all, just different than what's used in New Haven. I assume it's merely a different brand. Sauce/cheese ratio is on point. As someone else noted, there was a very mild saltiness to this pizza. I don't know if it's the dough, sauce, cheese, or the sausage, but it's not significant enough to be a deal-breaker for me. Perhaps it might be for others. Customer service was excellent. The young lady at the register was pleasant and my take-out order was completed within the time I was told. I'm interested to see what other Apizza fans think of this place. Don't compare it to Modern or Sally's, compare it to what's in the Valley. I think that with some minor improvements, this place could approach the level of the 2nd-tier Apizza places like Zuppardi's, Ernie's, and Roseland (not my own distinction, but there's a large consensus that Pepe, Sally's and Modern can't be rivaled. I disagree with this) Either way, I'll definitely return here. A solid 4-star pizzza (in the Valley) and I'm giving an extra star for the very polite staff. read more

We get take out from Bartone's and have always been pleased. Excellent pizza and the meatballs are large and delicious.

A Good clean family run pizza place. Ordered takeout. Really liked the pepperoni calzone/stuffed bread. The pizza was very good. Good crust, I ordered it Light Baked, so it didn't have too much char. I support family run restaurants and are hoping they succeed. I will be coming back for sure. The signage wasn't great, and because Rt 34 Derby was recently done over you can drive by it if you aren't paying attention. read more

We had heard good things so was very excited to try this place out. The Pizza arrived nice and hot. But upon opening the box, family said it was burned. (The pizza bottoms). When I tried my slice, I was disappointed. I felt like there was no cheese taste because the strong and bitter tomato (Paste?) dominated. I had two pieces hoping it would get better but that did not happen. The crust was tough to chew. Afterwards because I did not have Tums, I had to drink a glass of eggnog to settle my stomach. I would not order a Pizza here again because it is a certain style that I am not used to. Maybe the other items on the Menu are great? Hi Again, well the next Morning I decided to give it another try. I reheated a slice of pizza and I added some salt. So, it was OK and not tart as night before. Will still try other items on Menu. Response Note: Our food arrived maybe in 45 minutes and I would have no way of knowing whether or not our order was "bumped." I did not ask for this. You did not tell me. You're welcome! read more

This has become our absolute favorite pizza. Every pie we have ordered has been amazing. It's New Haven style pizza in Derby! Better than Zuppardi's and better than Pepe Pizza. On par with Sally's. We also like this much better than Roseland. The pizza last night we tried their sausage topping. Absolute perfection!!! read more

I love the food. The service is more amazing nice people. Thank you for this pizza restaurant that you do.

Phenomenal pizza! I drove down from upstate ny & I have to tell you that was hands down the best pizza I have had since my childhood pizzeria in ct! I actually travel a lot and have had pizza all over ny & ct and I had to show restraint and save some for the family at home -nothing to me is better than true Italian made with love & from scratch pizza - true comfort food you simply have to try it for yourself and you will thank me for recommending this gem of a pizzeria! It smells like Italian heaven!a slice of heaven on earth! read more

Ordered a pepperoni, margarita and chicken buffalo small pies. Pepperoni was very good the margarita was ok to many tomatoes needed more fresh basil. Chicken was ok. We got donut dough garlic Parmesan which was over powering and we also got the sugar and cinnamon and that wasn't good at all. I was looking forward to them so much. Thinking it was going to be like a zeppoli. read more

Excellent pizza!! Crust was perfect -- thin and crispy -- delicious. Interior was immaculate and really cute. The Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely return and highly recommend. read more

Saw they had a dedicated gluten free oven and had to try. Wife who is GF got a bbq pulled pork pizza on a GF crust and I got a large sausage. Both were very very good and will definitely be adding them to my rotation of places to go to. Probably more than others with the dedicated GF oven. read more

Counter person not very friendly. Pizza pretty good. Didn't live up to the hype though.

Pizza - phenomenal (as it has been before)! Delivery, phenomenal! I used to work in New Haven and had phenomenal pizza there. Don't need to go to New Haven now! read more

Had the worst dining experience I have had in a very long time. We are all about supporting family establishments but waited over an hour and garlic knots came out cold. I asked if the pizza was in the oven and I was told some pizza was in some was not. As we left the chef in the kitchen was kind enough to give us the middle finger read more

Got the large sausage and mushroom and certainly was not disappointed. New Haven-style pie with a generous amount of good quality sausage. Excellent atmosphere and super friendly service. Looking forward to the next visit - especially to try some of their unique specialty pies. read more

We ordered three different pies and, since they only opened 7 days ago, I kept my expectations low. Boy, was I surprised. The pies were perfectly cooked and so, so good. Instantly became my new favorite spot. Highly recommend!!! read more

Great pizza! We ordered two of our standard choices we always use when trying a new place. They were both terrific! They don't skimp on toppings either. I'll definitely be back and believe I have found our "go to" spot. read more
