I honestly only got pizza from here because I really needed to use the restroom after being at the…read moresoccer fields, and I am so glad I did. This was a 10/10 great pizza experience. We are not often in Middletown, but we will definitely be back. This is a great place to stop, and I 10000% recommend it. Of course, I had the gluten-free veggie pizza, and I added pineapple because I am a pineapple-on-pizza person. Sue me, I am an islander. My partner had the shrimp pizza, not gluten-free, and ordered a medium. The size was honestly obscene for a medium. He kept asking to drive back down there every day after because he wanted it again. Definitely returning.

Our neighbor raves about Mondo, so we thought it was high time we paid a visit…read more Mondo is fairly easy to find; our only error was accidentally pulling into the wrong parking lot. They do offer a free lot in the back, but judging by all the cars, Mondo is very popular on a Friday evening. Sure enough, there was a big line of people picking up orders, but we walked right in and were seated immediately. We started off with a beet salad, which was surprisingly delicious, combining candied walnuts and sweet orange and green apple slices with salty feta and tangy balsamic over a mountain of mixed greens. We then moved on to paninis, generous portions of meat and toppings on freshly baked, crispy bread. One of us chose more mixed greens tossed with dressing while the other chose crunchy French fries. We also ordered a third panini to go, the Mondo combo. We asked for fries; the kitchen accidentally gave us a salad. Our server, Heather N., saved the day by noticing the error and giving us both side orders. Mondo is family friendly, and there were plenty of children during our visit. As such, the volume was a tad loud and boisterous, but nothing obnoxious that would prevent us from returning.

Been everywhere for pizza, all the greats. This place and Roseland are tied atop my list…read more In fact, Little Rendezvous by a slice. As authentic as it gets. The guy has been making pizza since he was 15, there, and their oven is 120 years old. They are meticulous. Every single pie is the same quality. The crust is really unique. If you enjoy thin crust pizza, you have to order it here. Thin, crispy. Their house pie--sausage, mushrooms and peppers--is outstanding. Never overly wet or greasy, slices are uniform. Just made by the best of the best, in the best oven. Prices are remarkably affordable. Despite their reputation they stay the same. Will always feel like a family-run, neighborhood gem. Just a great place. Service is top-notch. Friendly, on-time, good guys. Ambiance is what you'd expect. Great vibes. Tiny place. Old-fashioned. If you can get a table, it's clean and an enjoyable spot. You can also take out, and find a place close by to park or a bench.

I'm going to skip past all my typical narrative about the restaurant ambiance, this is pizza, and…read morethe pizza is amazing!!! If you like New Haven style pizza, which is arguably the 'esemplare' of all pizza, then visiting The Little Rendezvous is a MUST visit if you live within 90-min. Plan a trip to visit some store you want to go to, a beach visit or whatever, just find a way to circle The Little Rendezvous into the trip! The crust is thin with a crackery-crunch, the sauce is at a another level and the mozz and roni are high-quality deliciousness! Rendezvous stands tall with any of the well known top-3 pizza joints in New Haven. Dave's score of 9.1 (if you are unaware of the reference, then pizza isn't your thing) is right on point, and I'd go as far as scoring it slightly higher at a 9.2 based on my visit. The building is something out of folklore. The building is all of about 20ft. wide, and when you enter, it is immediate, Steve (owner/chef) is all about the pizza. To be clear, most will consider Rendezvous to be take-out only. There is zero decor, less signs made with cardboard and sharpie notifying you that wait times of hours are real..... so be sure to call ahead. You walk past the most basic seating area of 3-4 small tables with bare walls, and then proceed to walk down an oddly long and narrow sloping hallway which leads you to the service counter/kitchen which houses the 130-year old oven! It's honestly something you could only imagine out of a movie...... the hole in the wall that is creating high-quality, delicious pizzas! Why or how you ask? The answer is simple, Steve! The guy clearly has a passion for making pizza and has dedicated his life to doing so. I met the 'man-the myth-the legend' on my visit, and he kindly even took the time to chat with me. Bucket-list item checked off! Overall score = 5.0!!!

I have been here several times for take out…read more Chicken wings, they are good wings. My favorite sauce is the Molasses Bourbon and the Old Bay dry rub. The wings are a nice size cooked perfectly. The blue cheese they serve with it is to die for! A lot of blue cheese and garlic in a creamy base. Only bad part about the wings are they are a little pricey, but to me, they are worth it. Grinders-My husband had the tuna, good solid tuna base. I wish they had more toppings like cherry peppers or banana peppers, but that is just me. If you do t want it toasted you have to let them know this. I think all off them come toasted, unless you specifically say don't toast. Desserts- I like their cookies. The peanut butter cup is my favorite. It's nice and large, my husband and I can split it and I am good with that and feel satisfied. The staff is always nice, busy and efficient. Again, I did not take a picture, because I scarfed my food down and it was an after thought. They have dine in, but I normally just pick up. From the area I pick up, it is clean.

This restaurant does get some live bands though probably would go somewhere else for pizza…read moreotherwise. The pizza is ok but there is definitely better in the area. It took us 90 minutes to get one pizza in house. They had bartenders trying to wait tables and my experience with that both as a customer and previous server is that these tables are left waiting way too long. Service was very intermittent and we would end up going to the bar the get drinks anyway. Venue is pretty loud with the band playing in such a small space, limited standing room if seats fill. There is a large parking lot for parking.

For some inexplicable reason it took us way too long to make our way to the current location just south of South Glastonbury. We ordered a margherita pizza and settled in at one of the shaded outdoor tables to wait for it to be prepared. In short order it arrived loaded, as in the past, with tomatoes, fresh basil and mozzarella. A bit sloppy since we could not and did not wait for it to cool down, but absolutely delicious. Based on my in-depth analysis, smile, you won't find its equal at any local pizzerias so I suggest getting your appetite ready and make your way to V's before Rob closes in the early fall. I know we will.

This is truly a hidden gem near Wesleyan…read more I've passed by here so many times but never noticed it, so I'm glad I stumbled upon it on Yelp! There is no parking lot, but street parking in this area isn't too bad. It is a take out place so the inside is set up like a deli. Everything in the case from brownies and cannolis to pasta salad and squid salad is homemade. They offer a large variety of sandwiches, pizza, and more, but I knew I had to get. Teflon Don because of how delicious it looked in the pictures on Yelp. The Teflon Don did NOT disappoint. I got a 12" grinder, and it was massive. It was stuffed with meat and satiated my sandwich craving. I also tried apricot nectar for the first time, and I'm hooked. The workers were also super sweet and even let my friend go into their kitchen and see the fresh sauce they had on the stove for his chicken parm! Great people.

The bartenders and servers have always been super cool and friendly so at a quiet time they are up for a chat. They mix great cocktails and have a fabulous collection of whiskey, as well as a thoughtful and well priced tap list. On this visit we checked out their happy hour which has some great value. It was my birthday so we were splurging a little so we tried the happy hour wings, buffalo Mac and cheese, and two pizzas - an elote special and a sweet and spicy roni. The wings are delicious! Nothing like a standard crispy buffalo wing, rather a delicious roasted wing that's super tender and flavorful. The Mac and cheese was better than I even expected. The cheese sauce was soooo good and their buffalo chicken component was loads of super tender sauced pulled chicken, all topped off with crispy fried onions. It was absolutely killer! The pizzas were good as always with a flavorful, charred crust, and a pleasant hint of a chew. Needless to say, we'll be back soon, as always!
