John S. from New Milford owned this establishment for decades. The food was always good quality with great portions. Examples include his large Pizza slice and Italian Hero sandwich with a lot of meat and bread that melted in your mouth. That being said, the knew owner doesn't seem to be living up to the Italian Connection legacy. For example: Since Dante's in River Edge closed down the only place to get an authentic Italian hero around here was the Italian Connection in Dumont. I recently purchased two large Italian heros. Although the size was large enough, I think the cold cuts could have been a little better and their could have been more cheese. Unfortunately, the bread was terrible. The bread was outstanding when John S. owned the restaurant. Always fresh and you tell that it was made by a quality baker. One can taste the difference. It always baffles me that individuals by a successful business and then change what made it great in the first place. Its unfortunate, but I probably won't be going back. read more

The goto take out pizza in dumont. The white pie with chicken has a crispy bottom that helps get that fold bend and has a blend of mozzarella and ricotta that is gratuitously overflowing between each bite. The chicken franchise sandwich is tender, light and held in a savory gravy coated bread. We also got a side of meatballs and sauce that was juicy. Calling ahead assures no waiting when picking up as the inside area has very limited seating, but there is also covered outdoor seating. Very friendly folks read more

The food is always great; especially the pizza and cold antipasto. Those are my two most often ordered items from there, but anything else has been very good as well. My friends and I conducted a taste test from many of our local pizza places and despite my belief that a different place would win, this place came in first. Generous amounts of toppings on pie and salads. Very small dining space inside and out, so it's mainly a take out or delivery place. read more

I was disappointed to get home and see there sandwich was half the amount of meat. I also found they forgot to add onions which was no big deal. I called and explained both my concerns and asked are you under new management? I was not surprised to hear yes based on my underwhelming light hero. I took some pictures as well totally disappointing compared to what it was pre-new ownership. read more

Not good, I won't say awful but not good. I got a steak and cheese and asked for ketchup salt and pepper in the notes section of ordering app. I even got a receipt with the order which clearly said ketchup salt and pepper. It had none. I assumed the put it in the bag? Nope. And they were extremely cheap with the steak and the cheese. I ordered a large and it contained what you would expect on a small, spread out over a large here. Pitiful, for $15. Look at that picture. It looks like a loaf of Italian bread cut in half because that's what it mostly is (the ketchup I added from a bottle). We also ordered chicken fingers. What they sent over were flavorless greasy overcooked chicken patties sliced into finger-sized strips. I assume they ran out of chicken fingers and just sliced up some left over chicken. Rubbery and flavorless. How do you screw up chicken fingers? If they ran out, fine then say something it happens. But this is BS. And it was nasty. Overall lousy. Between the lack of attention to detail, the serious absence of either steak or cheese in a steak and cheese (it wasn't cheap) and the swapping out of chicken fingers for leftover chewy greasy dry flavorless chicken patties cut up is not going to work. I have ordered from them on and off over the years and always forget why I don't do it more frequently. This was so ridiculously bad that I will not forget it. read more

The best sandwiches anywhere - PERIOD! Even though they changed hands in recent years, the quality, prices, and friendly staff continue to make this my very favorite place of all time to grab lunch. In fact, I would happily drive out of my way to go here. Everything here is great from the sausage and broccoli rabe to the eggplant parm or the lasagna! My friends and I have tried almost everything on the menu. Our experience has been that you will get more for your money here than in anywhere in the area. read more

The food is absolutely delicious, and fresh. I've had pizza, veggies, chicken, pasta, and every meal was exceptional. Delivery was fast, and food was hot. There was a time a few years ago when we had a disappointing experience. I'm so glad we tried the Italian Connection again. I waited awhile before posting a review to make sure the goodness was consistent, and it is. This is a must try. read more

Was looking a quick slice after Fink's nearby ran out of wings on their wings night. This happened to be the closest place and was open till 11 so we walked over. Staff greeted us right away and was extremely friendly. The place was kind of a hybrid of a deli and a casual Italian restaurant as their display only showcased deli meat and a few desserts. There were no pizzas out. I could be wrong but it didn't seem like a single slice type of place. Since there were 5 of us, one of the employees just suggested we get a whole pie since it would be cheaper and fresher anyhow so we just opted to get a half plain and half pepperoni pie since it was only around $16. Figured $2 per slice wasn't bad and it made sense, but the suggestion was appreciated. The pie came out relatively quickly and really there is nothing better than a fresh pie. I was a little surprised because the pie was definitely smaller than a typical pie. I want to say that each slice was about 30% smaller than a typical slice that you would get anywhere else so in actuality the $16 price per pie wasn't cheaper than we had originally thought. As for the pizza itself, it tasted fine. Pizza really is a preference thing, but personally I wasn't blown away by the pie, but I wasn't disappointed with it either. I'm sure the pizza being fresh had a lot to do with it. The crust I thought was a little lacking. Thought it could have been a tiny bit thicker but it was semi-crispy so that was a plus. The cheese was good and the sauce was fine but thought it could have used a little more. The pepperoni was thin too and didn't get as much crisp as I would have liked. Overall, it satisfied our craving and given the late time, it was a fine option. Staff being friendly is always a nice plus too. read more

Ordered catering for a party on the Saturday before Christmas. Everything was great. The man who took the order was super nice. He answered all my questions about how much food and what combination of food I should order for how many people. The delivery came on time and the multiple trays were brought directly into the house. Finally, the most important thing, the food was delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meal. For reference, I ordered full trays of Chicken with Lemon Sauce Garlic and Penne Vodka, and half trays of meatballs and sausage peppers and onions. read more

Haven't ordered from here in a while after a bad experience. I received a coupon in the mail and I was feeling lazy so I figured I would give them another shot. I didn't think it was possible but the pizza got WORSE. Wings were greasy and chewy. Stay away. I'm giving them 2 stars because some of their other stuff deserves 3 stars so I rounded to 2. I should send Dave from Barstool there to see his face when he takes a bite. Try Romans in New Milford or Uncle Franks in Dumont instead and thank me later. read more

Friends have been telling me about this place for a long time and my Father has been wanting to try it, so we decided National Pizza Day was the perfect opportunity. Just went with a basic cheese pizza, as if you can't get that right then nothing else will be good. We weren't disappointed. Nice thin crust, very good mozzarella, and just the right amount of good olive oil. Salads are large and filled with very good ingredients. The fresh mozzarella on one of them was excellent. More of a takeout place, but there is a very small quaint dining area with red and white checkered table cloths. There's outside seating too for warmer weather. read more

I have ordered food here a few times besides them being very rude in the way they speak to the customer. I ordered specifically pasta with broccoli with no meat and when I received the order when I opened it the pasta had chicken on it. When I call the owner told me that I had to keep it that he couldn't make it up so I had to keep it. Talk about customer service and having to be stuck with there mistakes. Fuck this place. When I asked to bring the food for a refund he said he can't make it up. TrueType felt like going to the restaurant and throw the food at their door steps. But didn't do that. read more

The best WORKS pie i've ever had! I love pizza with a variety of toppings but most of the Works pie i've had from the local pizzerias had too much toppings and/or too big of meat/veggie chunks which ended up making the inside of the pie too watery and very messy to eat. But this pie, from Italian Connection, was simply amazing! Perfect quantity of perfectly seasoned toppings in perfect size and proportion were neatly held by a perfect portion of CHEESE!! Yeah, what was most amazing was that the pie was still sooooo cheesy with all that toppings! Only regrettable issue is that each piece is so filling that I cannot eat mote than two pieces at a time, lol! Absolutely AMAZING!!! read more

Ordered Shrimp Scampi asked what kind of pasta does it usually comes with, girl said she'll asked and answered "it's the thin pasta". Came to pick up our orders and saw the shrimp scampi SAUCE with 6 pcs of shrimp for $22.36. Called them back clarifying the order if it's just the sauce alone or maybe they just forgot to include the pasta (maybe on the side) the girl said "YOU HAVE TO PAY EXTRA FOR THE PASTA" Like seriously?!!!! Almost $23 for wine-garlic-butter sauce with 6pcs shrimp. Unreal. ‍ read more

Italian Connection Pizza - "Shrimp Scampi" - Pizza Near Me - Dumont, New Jersey

I love coming here for the kind service and take-out food. I've never had their pizza but their pastas are pretty good, the pasta primavera is my favorite. The owner is always very sweet and generous whenever I go. They have the best chicken noodle soup and hot sandwiches in the area. The only two things to note are their menus don't match the updated prices which have gone up since Covid unfortunately and ordering over the phone can be a bit tricky for specific orders so I recommend going in person. But overall I recommend stopping by! read more

Italian Connection Pizza - This is what happens when you hold the pizza sideways instead of level! Who the fuck doesn't know this! NEVER AGAIN NEVER! - Pizza Near Me - Dumont, New Jersey

Bam! IMO best pizza in a 5 mile radius. Stop wasting time and money trying crappy spots. This is the place. I get mine well done. Cheese, crust and sauce are all working well together. Finally the hunt is over. The name says it all. I finally made my local go to pizza connection. I must say its in very poor taste they charge $2.75 for delivery. I could see if you order under a minimum or something but you can spend $100 and they still bang you for $2.75 Its the little things that keep or lose customers. If I am close by and want pizza I will def stop in to get some but I will never order delivery on principal alone knowing I have to pay a surchage. If there was no charge, I would order delivery way more. So in the long run are they helping or hurting themselves? read more

Really chill owner and great sandwiches! Their fettuccini Alfredo is pretty delicious too.

We ordered from Italian Connection for the very first time last night. We got a regular cheese cheese pizza, a greek pizza, shrimp scampi and 2 cannoli. We ordered directly thru them and not a delivery app. The man who took our order was friendly and even tho they were busy, didnt make us feel rushed to just place our order quick. The delivery was fast and the food was hot. They even placed the food on our porch table. I cant tell you how many restaurants just put the food on the ground. But they saw the table on our porch and knew to put the food there. On to the food. The cheese pizza is good but no different than other plain pizzas from other places. The greek pizza is really good. If you like feta cheese as much as I do, you'll love this pizza. The shrimp scampi is awesome. They aren't stingy with the shrimp like so many other places are. We got the scampi with rice and veggies. It all was very flavorful. The cannoli were very good. Being sicilian, I know how a cannolu (a singular one) should taste and this is it. The filling is just right and not so sweet that you can feel your blood sugar rising. Overall, this is a good place. We will add them to our small list of pizza places we order from. read more

The worst experience. I order pizza at 543 and was told it will be over hour wait for the pizza. I called again at 7:13 for status on pizza and was told ticket is not there should be delivered soon. I called again at 7:30 and employee inform me delivery driver left the pizza outside the door. I asked why no phone call or he didn't ring the door bell. He said contactless delivery and claim driver called several times. I didn't receive one phone call. Upon opening the pizza a slice was missing and the box wasn't even hot. I called back. They stated nothing can be done and owner will call on Tuesday. The worst customer experience. read more
