    Eggplant grinder extraordinaire
    Joyce T.

    After eating out at overrated, high end restaurants in the area while I stayed in Westerly for a week, on the last day I found Midway on recommendation of a fan. By far this place makes the most delicious eggplant grinders. My first three were picked up early, yes, they are open by 9 or 10 am, and brought to the beach to eat many hours after it came out of the oven. The blend of spices they use is subtle yet enhances the flavor, I detect a slight heat in the meatball. Finally got to eat an eggplant hot from the oven on the side patio. A messy and scrumptious experience. I live 42 miles from this gem and look forward to planning trips that include Midway Pizza House. The cook hands you the grinder twisted tightly in its brown bag gently serving it with the same tenderness as a mother hands off her newborn. These people can be proud of what they are serving the public. Joy

    My sisters and I have been coming to Midway since before we were born. It's a long family tradition! My father and mother would load us six daughters into our 1970-something blue station wagon with wood trim and blue vinyl seats and we'd drive from southern CT to Midway in Westerly on Friday nights on the way to our Grandmother's house. One sister and I, now in our late 40s, are still obsessed with this place even though we live thousand of miles away-- I in Florida and she in the Caribbean! Whenever we visit family in Westerly, everyone, including our spouses, know that we will be eating Midway salami and meatball grinders and pizza slices at least 2-3x! In fact, we started a 2nd tradition of taking "jealousy" pictures to send to one another when we are eating Midway and are not visiting together! There's nothing quite like being at home or work thousands of miles away and seeing a picture of a half-eaten Midway salami grinder hit your phone! Jealous!!! The new outside patio area is a great addition to an already fantastic place!! And while the staff and menu board has changed dozens of times over the decades, the grinders have not! Yum!!

    Fresh, homemade and affordable slice. Crust is crunchy outside and soft inside. Tastes homemade.

    If I had a nickel for every sheet pizza I've been a part of then I could take early retirement!

    Third stop of the day today. We'll be doing six today on the fourth leg of the RI FOOD FIGHTS…read more Lord of the Pies event. Three more coming tonight, but Vittorias N Y Pizza ended the afternoon portion of our tour. Last year this place broke something in me. I thought I understood pizza. Thought I'd eaten everything that mattered, knew all the styles, had the hierarchy figured out. Then I had their grandma slice at the end of a long night after three other stops, and it demolished everything I thought I knew. I've been back multiple times since. Today just confirmed what I already know. That grandma slice is perfect. Not hyperbole. Actually perfect. The crust alone would be enough. Firm, airy, crunchy. Delicious. They could serve me nothing but that crust and it would beat 95% of the pizza in Rhode Island. That's not an exaggeration either. The texture hits every note. Structure without being heavy. Crispness without brittleness. Flavor that doesn't need anything on top to justify itself. Then the sauce. Fresh in a way that hits immediately. You can taste each component. Normally I'm not a fan of sauce with visible chunks of tomato. Usually means someone got lazy with a can opener. This works differently. The chunks add texture, brightness, proof that someone crushed these by hand and knew exactly what they were making. It's a symphony. Every element pulling its weight, nothing competing for attention. Music in your mouth. The fresh mozzarella underneath brings everything together and protects the crust from becoming soggy. That creamy base against the bright sauce against that transcendent crust. Each component is superior to almost anywhere. Together they become something that makes you question why anyone bothers making pizza any other way. This is THE hidden gem in Rhode Island. Not on Federal Hill getting all the tourist traffic. Not in Providence with the food media buzz. Just Westerly, quietly making the best individual slice I've had anywhere. Third stop of the afternoon. Stomach already working. Brain cataloging differences between places. And this slice cuts through all of that noise like a knife. Still perfect. Still the slice that everything else gets measured against a d never loses. Last year I said it was the best pizza I'd had in Rhode Island outside the prime years of Twins and Caserta. I said it was top five anywhere. I'm not walking any of that back. If anything, the consistency of perfection makes it more impressive. The place itself is unassuming. Brick oven visible behind the counter. Slices in the case. Real plates and silverware when you eat in. That's cool. No pretense. No marketing. Just people who know how to make pizza doing it as well as anyone. They have other styles. Lots of different flavor combinations to suit your desires. They had a twice baked potato pizza on a New York crust. A chicken fajita pizza. Some great looking Sicilian pies. There's even a Gorgonzola version off the grandma pie. The standard cheeses and pepperonis, etc. So there's something for everyone. But for me, it's that Grandma slice. There's nothing else like it. Worth the drive to Westerly. Worth whatever wait there might be. Worth coming back to again and again just to make sure your memory wasn't playing tricks on you. It wasn't. This is still the one. Three more stops tonight. Good luck to them.

    RI Food Fight- Lord of the Pies 2024 Review…read more We had tickets to a show at The Ocean Mist. When in the area, why not trade in our coupon for a free slice at Vittoria's. We wanted to keep the baseline so we cashed in on a free cheese slice. We purchased a Grandma's gorgonzola slice and a cannoli. 3. The Cheese slice ( maybe a little too ehavy ahnded with the cheese but could have used a little flavoring- I am just so accustomed to garlic) 2. Grandma's Gorganzola! DELICIOUS! As I kept taking bites it got better and better. I am going to think about this pizza for awhile 1. THE CANNOLI!!! SO GOOD! The winner here. Ample parking, clean restaurant with a few booths and the staff were very friendly.

    It took us a few minutes to find the door, but when we made it inside, it was a delight. The place…read morewas big, open, lots of natural light coming in from the huge windows all around. You can tell this space used to be a factory or some otehr industrial type building. I loved the open kitchen, the awnings gave it this welcoming, cozy feel and I started to get excited about the meal. The host greeted us and got us seated. On our way over, we passed a tree made of pizza boxes! I thought that was great, I love it when restaurants get into the holiday spirit. The dining area was decorated well but not overdone, and I spotted a Nutcracker from the Westerly Nutcracker trail! I love community events like that. Our server was friendly, and soon our order was placed. Not much time had passed before the garlic knots came out. Strongly tasting of fresh garlic (as they should) they were delicious. The dough was chewy and flavorful, the garlic adding even more to the mix. I got even more excited for the pizza. When it arrived, it was smoldering hot, fresh out of the oven. But I could not wait, so I used a fork and knife for my first bite. The dough was crisp, the sauce zesty and a whole lot of cheese. So cheesy that some pepperoni fell off my friend's slice as he put it on his plate. If you like a cheesy pizza, this is the spot for you. The first slice went down easy, and in some ways I was reminded of the texture of a classic NY pie but thinner. I eagerly reached for the second slice, a cheese one. That's where things fell apart for me. The difference in these two slices was immense. I'm not sure what happened in the oven, but the pizza was not cooked evenly. The cheese sliced flopped and lost all the great texture I enjoyed in the first slice. Unfortunately, it seems the rest of the pie didn't reflect my first slice experience. I liked it enough that if someone invited me back, I would go but I don't think this will be on my places to recommend in Westerly yet. I'll have to give them another try for sure, I can see the potential, it just fell a little short in execution for me. Loved the spot otherwise and those garlic knots were great!

    Someone stacked pizza boxes into a Christmas tree…read more Six feet tall, wrapped in ribbon, right there in the dining room. Staff work, not decorator work. They've been here long enough to know the kids' names. Everything about the room says they thought this through. Brick and white wainscoting, pendant lights, bentwood chairs, open kitchen where you watch the whole operation. Families pack the place. Kids color, parents talk, teenagers perform indifference while inhaling slices. Staff moves with the rhythm of people who've been here since they were kids themselves. I wanted the pizza to match the room. It didn't. Fourteen inch thin crust that can't decide if it's New York or Neapolitan. Doesn't nail either. The middle collapses. You need to fold it backward or use a fork to eat it. Neither option appeals to me. Sauce, cheese, crust. Everything blurs together. Can't tell you what any single component contributed because nothing stood out enough to claim it. Pepperoni brought grease. Covered my hands and the plate. Some flavor there, not enough to make the cleanup worth it. What I wanted: crust with structure. Pizza that holds its shape. Components that argue with each other before they work it out. What they're serving: something else. But here's what I keep coming back to. Families who've been showing up since 1998. People driving from out of state for a booth. Kids measuring childhood in pizza box trees. Twenty six years on the same corner doing the same thing the same way. They're not confused. They know what they're getting. The product isn't the pizza. It's the room, the people, the 26 years of your family showing up. Pizza's just the excuse that brings you back in.
