Comella's - Messy sandwich, cold meatballs - Italian Near Me - Wellesley, Massachusetts

I have good food in the past but tonight's order is sub-par at best. First the wrong pizza was sent Second the proper pizza had almost no bacon. Third the Lasagna was not as it use to be. Over all not impressed. read more

Two of my last three orders have been below standard. The first was a "mess" with the container half full. The second was a missing meatball in my Little Abbey order. I notified Comella's twice regarding the missing meatball and have been ignored. There will not be a fourth order at the Wellesley store. read more

comella's has the best pizza! i always get their cheese pizza. everything on their menu is very affordable and they have plenty of options. it's perfect for family get togethers and pizza parties! i generally place orders to pick up and they are always made on time. the staff are super friendly and the check out process is quick. there's only a table or two inside the restaurant and it's pretty small. if you subscribe to their emails they send out coupons pretty often! overall rating: 10/10 read more

How can you go wrong with their classics..! Comella's makes some of the best itallian-american classics I've ever had Their menu is incredibly affordable and they make the simplest ingredients shine through in very innovative ways If i'm not sending a whole cheese pizza with the boys, I'm probably enjoying one of their classic messes, my favorite mess is between the swinging sammy's and the red's mess. The fact that you can get chicken AND beef in one masterpiece is unreal and on top of that the combination of cheese and sauce that drapes these fun dishes will certainly leave you wishing you could dip some pizza crust or garlic bread into what's left of your mess One of the staples of town and truly more than enough bang for you buck read more

I made a simple order of Chicken Caesar salad wrap on white wrap. Pickup my order and it was the smallest wrap I've ever seen for $9 bucks. I open the wrap and it's wheat not white, plenty of croutons and little chicken. I will not be making that mistake again. Lesson learned for $9 dollar wrap that you can fit in your hand. read more

Attempted to place an order and they put us on hold and then hung up after 10 minutes of waiting!!! Can you believe that bull crap? A whole 10 minutes of my life shriveled. All I wanted was my meal. Cant a girl get a meal? Because boy I am just ravenous for that garlic bread. Freak bitches you will burn. read more

I was in a bit of a jam... My executive called just before Noon as she was going into another meeting, and asked if I could make arrangements for a 5pm pick up that day to have dinner ready for her family of eight that was flying in a couple of nights before they embarked on a vacation. She wanted something Italian in her neighborhood so it would be good to reheat the next day as well. I called two places. The first one couldn't do it as they required 24 to 48 hours for any catering orders...and I totally get that. Comella's, however, was able to do it. Taylor, who took my call, assured me it was no problem for them to quickly put together some chicken parm for 6-8, a penne bolognese for 3-4, a spinach calzone for 3-4 and a chicken broccolli alfredo for 6-8. He correctly anticipated that it would be the perfect amount for what I needed. He was friendly, professional and efficient, and it was very appreciated. Even though I can't critique the food, Taylor's professionalism is why I give the five stars. And the price was reasonable as well! So when the boss came in the next day, I asked her how the food was. She said with enthusiasm that it was good and hearty, and exactly what she wanted. A happy executive equals a happy executive assistant! :) Thanks much to Taylor and Comella's for the help! read more

Ordered 2 pizzas on Sunday 10/21/18 at 6:10p. Informed that the pizzas would be ready at 6:30p. Arrived at 6:45p to find a long line and overwhelmed staff. The staff said the pizza was not ready yet. Around 7:05p the staff indicated they were out of pizza dough. Yes, a pizza joint ran out of dough. However, no indication that my pizza was part of this, as a few people before me received their pizza. At 7:12p the staff said my pizza was being made with the recently arrived dough and would be ready at 7:20p. At 7:25p the pizza was not ready and they informed me that they didn't have gluten free dough. Then why did they tell me my pizza was in the oven at 7:12p? I indicated to cancel my order as they didn't even have the dough to make my pizza. The staff indicated my pizza order would be canceled by the manager, who was on the phone, and not at the store. My card was charged so now I need to dispute the charges. Worst experience EVER at a restaurant. read more

I wouldn't recommend this food-- my husband and our friends all got sick after we ate pizza from here last night. Be careful!

I consider myself a pizza person, and by that I mean I could probably have pizza once a day and still want it every day, and this is partly because of how good Comellas pizza is. A large plain cheese is $5....there is no way to argue how much of a steal that is, AND it's absolutely delicious pizza which makes it even more worth it. If you add toppings it becomes more expensive but it's still a great price for pizza in the area. I am also a huge fan of their pasta, and would recommend all the "mess" dishes (they are great because they are a perfect mix of all the food items you're craving along with yummy pasta). The staff is usually very polite highschool age kids, but the restaurant is mainly for takeout, though there is some seating inside. I have also gotten their frozen food to take home and make later (various pastas and their delicious sauce) and I've had great experiences with that. read more

Hit or miss. The chicken sandwich I will say was one of the worst I've had.... BUT the pizza is delicious.

This is one teeny-tiny restaurant. Within the few dozen times I've traveled along this stretch of Route 16, I've never even noticed there was a Comella's here, and even today, I almost drove right by it. Such a tiny little space that is only able to accommodate a few tables and very little else. Even so, I'd rather have they stay small and for the prices to stay as low as they are, because in the current state, Comella's has the best food around for such affordable prices. Even though the prices did rise a year or so ago, going from $5 to $5.99 for a large pizza is still lower than everywhere else around. Staff here and friendly and prompt. I made an order after visiting the Whole Foods down the street and my order was ready in less than ten minutes from the call, even though she had said it would be fifteen. Quality throughout their large menu including pizzas, calzones, hot / cold sandwiches, "family messes", pastas, raviolis, entrees and more is top notch and filling for any meal. Parking here isn't great, with only a few on street spots, but if you can't find one, parking in the Walgreens lot is fine (sort of...). Service here is accurate and quick. My kind of place. 4 stars for the Wellesley Comella's. It may be smaller than Needham and Westwood, but it's still fills the purpose. read more

Ordered take-out during the Coronavirus stay-home order. We picked up a large portion of wonderfully tasty food. I had the lasagna, which came with a large side of penne pasta. My wife ordered eggplant parm, which was also accompanied by penne pasta. We were both loved our meals and had plenty left over for another lunch or dinner. Great food and great value. read more

I have been a long time customer of Comella in Wellesley MA, and my faith in this shop had been severely tested today. The self proclaimed owner of this shop by the name of "Gene"/"Jean" ( it was a old gentleman) effectively had refused to serve someone who is non-white, without listening to any of my concerns, while threatened to and eventually called the Wellesley Police who showed up with three patrol officers to log this "dispute". Here is the story: I placed my first call for a large plain cheese pizza, my usual. Was informed the pizza would be ready at about 7:15pm, about 50mins from the time I called. I told the lady at Comella Wellesley that I would call back after thinking about it. I called back within 2-3 minutes, maybe the same/different lady told me the wait would be til 7:15pm; I said ok and shared with her that someone had communicated with me about that time and I am good with that wait. She then said "STOP BEING RUDE"!, to my complete surprise, then hanged up on me. I dialed back three times and each time was either told to wait, transferred to their fax machine, or no one picked up the phone. After one last try, was able to get through, requested and spoke with the manager "Kim", shared my concerns, and "Kim" took my order. All seemed good until I showed to pick up my pizza and asked to speak to "Kim" the manager, and "Kim" the manager showed up and I said I was the one who spoke to her on the phone about the issue. "Kim" the manager said that she had not spoken with me, and that had no idea what I was talking about. When I requested her to contact the owner, she said the owner can't be reached. So I proceeded to show "Kim" my cell phone record and walked her through what had just happened from my point of view; and she seemed to think that one of her colleagues might have pretended she was "Kim" the manager and effectively lied about what had happened; and obviously they could not find my pizza. At this point "Jean"/"Gene" the gentleman came to the counter and I asked if he was the owner and he said he was; he wanted to understand what was happening. I shook his hand and suggested we walked out of the little pizza shop so we could talk better as it was very loud inside. After a brief introduction; Jean/Gene drastically changed his attitude into someone who said the following to me, in no uncertain terms, after I had asked him multiple times whether he truly meant to say the following: I am not a customer they want I was too loud and condescending to his employees He refused to listen to my story and concerns He did not want to know that I had been a long time customer He wanted me to apologize to his employees He wanted to call the cops He said they didn't anything wrong He didn't want me to step into the pizza shop anymore He wanted me to leave his premise, while we were standing outside in front of the shop next to the pizza shop already I was completely surprised at what he said and how he said it, and his attitude and absolute unwillingness to listen to me my side of the story was seemed racially motivated. I told him go ahead and call the cops, he didn't dare to after threatening multiple times, and I called him bluffing; so eventually the cops came and listened to all sides of the story. They acknowledged that someone in the shop lied about "Kim", no pizza for me, and that the cop also told me they don't want to serve me. During the entire process, I didn't use any curse words and I didn't believe I was loud; and I suggested we stepped outside to talk to and shook his hands. The environment was hostile and I hope no one else would have to go through this type of experience; I felt like racism and the refusal to serve was borderline discrimination. I do not know what recourses I have. read more

The pizza tastes like reheated Chef Boyardee. I didn't even pay for it and I feel like I wasted my money.

I have been to almost all their locations and found the food every time delicious with large portions. Very Consistent service and special nod to the ladies at the Chestnut Hill locations who always smile!! read more

Oh god, delicious. This last semester, I needed to find a break from the burritos and beverages (thank you, Qdoba) as the weather in Wellesley shifted to a colder climate. Chicken wraps and bagels at the school cafeteria weren't cutting it. Depressed, I needed a meal that would warm my heart and my stomach. That's when Comella's walked through the door. In reality, my girlfriend introduced me to the place. From the moment I scanned the hundreds of menu items available to order, I knew that this tiny restaurant had filled that void for food made with TLC (tender, love, and care). To the point, Comella's is family-style italian. Almost anything you order (and there's a lot to order) tastes great. They go heavy on the sauce and meat which is wonderful for a carnivore like me. Also, best of all, their prices don't substantially hurt the wallet and most menu items can definitely be divided into two meals (especially the messes). They stock ready for the road or they can prepare something fresh if you want to eat there. For college students, they now have $5 pies which beats any competitive offer from Domino's or the recently-opened Papa Gino's. Definite 5-star. read more

Love this place. Was on my way to the T stop in Wellesley Hills and decided to stop in for some lunch and boy was it amazing! Had the eggplant parm and it was to die for especially for $9 and how much you get it was fabulous. Also had a cannoli, and only one since I was stuffed with eggplant parm, and it was fabulous. Now keep in mind I literally had nothing to eat until I ate here and it was about 3 o'clock. Still have leftovers! Will definitely be stopping in again after school. read more

$5 for an amazing homemade pizza?! How do they possibly make money? Whenever we're too lazy to cook, we'll call up Comellas and grab a $5 pizza and a Swingin Sammy mess (chicken & meatballs) and call it a glorious dinner. The pizza is absolutely delicious and the messes are the perfect combination of pasta, sauce, meat, and whatever else goes in there. They taste great and are perfect for sharing or keeping as leftovers for lunch the next day. Very fast service and highly recommended. read more

This place is incredibly fast and consistent. I call in my order as I pull out of my driveway and a few minutes later when I get there, it is set and piping hot. I come here when I have a craving for something heavy and don't have the time to cook. They no longer have the cross-shaped thick pastas and pizza that they used to have a decade ago, but they still have Messes. The sauce is rich and flavorful without overtaking the rest of the dish. The sheer quantity of food, particularly the mozzarella that a mess is completely fills my appetite. I'm not exactly sure, but the helpings seem just slightly larger when eating in than when taking out. The sausages are particularly good with a bit of a kick. The tiramisu is light and flavorful and on par with Modern Bakery in the North End in terms of taste and a good capstone to your meal if you have any room left. Or you can get it just so that it can taunt you while you have a painful internal debate of how to allocate your appetite. The canolli is a bit firm, but the filling is done very well. There is seating available, but not that much. It is largely a take-out business. But if you are looking for North End trattoria-quality pastas, this is a place to go without spending your evening doing a parking hunt. There is ample parking on the street and to the side and back. Dishes to try: Pick a Mess, any Mess, but I get Grandpa's (Sausage and Meatball). Tiramisu. read more

So this was my first and last time to visit Comella's. I had a slice of their cheese pizza at a charity event this past Saturday and thought it was pretty good. So tonight I placed an online order through the website. When I went to pick it up, the order was wrong. Supposed to be half cheese and half with toppings, but entire pizza had toppings. Mistakes happen, but I was not impressed with their reaction. The first comment was, "did you place order online?", like that was a bad thing. Then they said "well we weren't here then". So am I not supposed to order online? Granted, they did offer to make me a cheese pizza but I did not have time to wait. The pizza was nothing special and we only ate a few bites. Will keep searching for good pizza in Wellesley. We've only lived here a few years, and the only really yummy pizza we've found is in the North End. read more

I love love love comella's food. I just got off the phone with one of the girls that answered the phone and she was extremely rude. She didn't even answer the phone with "hello" she said "yeah?" I'm highly disappointed with the customer service. read more

We just moved to town and heard Comella's is a good go-to take out place. The pastas and sauces are exceptional--- and the costumer service is over and beyond. Taylor, the manager, knows what to do "make it right" if anything is wrong. I'm am excited to support this small (and yummy) business of Boston- and happy they have a location here in Wellesley! We look forward to this being our Friday night take-out go to. read more

I have ordered from this restaurant multiple times. However, I recently ordered the mozzarella and basil pizza and it was horrible. The pizza was soggy, mostly sauce and they did not put cheese in the middle. read more

All I can say about the veal parm sandwich was wow. Fantastic. I almost went back for a second. The "messes" look very interesting so I'll have to check those out next time. read more

Best. Parm. Sandwiches. I don't care if you get grilled chicken, fried chicken, veal, meatball, eggplant.... seriously, I don't. It doesn't even matter, it'll be fantastic no matter what. NO MATTER WHAT. The bruschetta here sucks though. Don't bother. Stick with the sandwiches or anything that has their homemade marinara sauce and you're golden. read more

This place is mostly pick up - the sitting inside is small. The pasta is pretty good - though I wouldnt say is the best pasta I have ever had. The garlic bread wasnt all that great either. Overall, a good place to get some pasta on a lazy move night. read more

This Comella's in particular has amazing sauce for their pasta and chicken parms. I've had the chance to order the squash ravioli and chicken/eggplant parm from this location. Fantastic! The setting is small and quaint, perfect for picking up to-go orders. Pulling into a spot on Washington street is horrible...but that's not the restaurant's fault. My boyfriend and I have also eaten at the restaurant and it was nice. Would recommend to anyone that wants a nice, authentic Italian meal. Large portions and good deals for college students (ex: $5 large cheese pizza's!) read more

I come here often during for lunch takeouts since it's one of the few closest places near work. Comella's has the best salads especially the cobb salad! I might have to say it's the best cobb salad ever and the ingredients are always fresh, large portions. The wraps are delicious as well. I love the convenience of online ordering and pick ups are always quick. read more

One of the best Pesto Chicken Cutlet with mozzarella cheese sub!!! Taylor, the cashier, was very sweeet & courteous. She gave the best food options and even warned me to be careful while crossing the road since it was busy road. :) I would definitely recommend this place and visit again and add to my frequent visit! read more

This is my favorite take-out place in the area. I have been going to the Wellesley location, so I'm excited they just opened a location in Natick. Pros: Great price, excellent service, huge portions, everything tastes great Cons: Sometimes there is a wait Highly recommend the messes (especially Brother's Mess), gnocci and garlic bread. They also have $5 pizza and it's pretty big. Good for comfort Italian food and take out. read more

Oh. my. god. If you like Italian food, Comella's is the place to go. $5 Pizzas beat every pizza place in town price-wise. The "messy" meals are unbeatable. Everytime I've gone there, I've had great experiences. The food is so good. The service can be slow at times but the awesome food makes up for it. If you want good Italian, go to Comellas. It'll be worth it. read more

Actually the best Italian restaurant in Wellesley. The pizzas are amazing and I would highly recommend the chicken+broccoli+alfredo on penne. The service is pretty lit but it does take a while to get the food however it might just be because I'm hungry asf... read more

Alert* Looks like our Friday Family tradition of ordering Comella's for pizza has come to an end. Price of basic cheese pizza went from $5.00 to $5.99 to $5.30 to $8.25. The funny thing is the $5.30 price was a customer appreciation special. Nothing says we appreciate you better than a 55% price increase. On the other hand, this will give us an opportunity to try new pizza shops. They say don't try to fix something that is not broken. read more

Not sure what happened Tuesday night but the pizza we ordered was horrible under cooked, and soggy. We get pizza Comella's once a month but this was a real bad experience. read more

This was our first visit to Comella's in Wellesley as we heard the food was good. We called in our order at 7:05pm and we were told it would be ready at 7:30pm. When we arrived at 7:30pm they handed us our partial order and informed us they just put the pizza in the oven. The pizza was fair to poor. Soggy uncooked crust, flavor was bland, low quality ingredients. Needless to say, we won't be back. read more

No air conditioning on a hot humid summer day. No ice for the drinks on a hot humid day. Soda was luke warm. Prices are high for salads with chicken. Food is actually good. A small, dark, hot place to eat is not cutting it for Wellesley in the middle of July. read more

I placed an online order at 11:15 AM and requested noon pickup. They asked to move pickup to 12:30 die to a large order. They didn't have the food ready until 12:40. I don't care about the quality of the food when I end up getting my lunch served at dinner. read more
