There's a reason why Mondo is at the top of Middletown's pizza pyramid year after year. Speedy, friendly & competent service Consistently excellent food Unbeatable value They are my go to when anyone asks for pizza in my house. We've been countless times since my last review and I've never left with buyers remorse. Mondo just knows how to treat its customers right, keep it up! read more

Finally tried Mondo after hearing about it for years and found it to be average. Pizza was pretty carelessly thrown together and the cheese wasn't good quality (you can tell by how greasy a plain cheese pizza is). To be fair, they do offer better quality mozzarella and maybe it was an off night, but too many great pizza places around with better quality. read more

A great pizza experience with tasty (red & white) sangria. Their drink selection is extensive, along with their specialty pies! This is one restaurant I will take family or friends that are visiting Middletown for the first time! read more

Very good pizza! Crust is thin but not too thin. With a bit of chew as well as crisp. Sauce was great- subtle and not overwhelming. Cheese was perfect. Slices are quite big if ordering by the slice. Will definitely return! read more

Another fun lunch - 2 slice pizza plus the arugala salad with lemon dressing. I like that is has candied walnuts, cheese and plentiful vegetables in this yummy combo. The staff is always friendly and kind to all customers. This restaurant has the gift of homemade fresh food and professional staff. read more

We rolled into Mondo Middletown like we hadn't eaten in a week. Fifteen deep. Loud. Hungry. Ready to do damage. I went straight for the Mondo special, thin crust, crisp, and built right. First bite told the story. The undercarriage had structure, the edge had crunch, and the toppings stayed in balance instead of sliding into chaos. Onion, peppers, sauce, pepperoni, sausage, bacon... all playing their role, nobody trying to be the star, and that's exactly why it worked. This wasn't a greasy overload pie. It was composed. Clean flavors. Sauce present but not drowning the dough. Cheese doing its job without turning the slice into a blanket. Around the table, it turned into a full-on pizza parade. * Barbecue chicken made the rounds. Sweet and Smokey * Tomato basil, simple, bright, the kind of pie you underestimate until it disappears * Sicilian, thicker, airy, satisfying, the "one slice turns into three" situation * Ozzy Egg, the wildcard. Rich, different, and the pie people kept talking about between bites I didn't personally get into every pie, but you could read the table. Heads nodding. Silence during bites. That "hold on, let me finish chewing" look. Universal pizza language for "yeah... this is legit." Keith came out and greeted us and jumped in for a photo like he'd known us for years. That stuff isn't staged. You can tell when it's genuine, and this was. The staff stayed on it the whole time. Drinks refilled, pies landing hot, check-ins without hovering. Friendly, attentive, and clearly used to handling a busy dining room without letting it feel chaotic. What stood out most was consistency. Nothing felt like a throwaway option. Whether thin crust, Sicilian, or specialty, the kitchen knew what it was doing. And the vibe matched the food. Casual. Welcoming. Built for groups. Built for exactly what we did, show up with friends, order too much, and stay longer than planned. Slice Mob left full and happy! Slice Mob Approved! read more

I went to Mondos Pizza in Middletown CT for the second time this past weekend and it was amazing. My sister got pizza , but I ordered the turkey avocado panini. It came with beer battered fries, which are to die for(no exaggeration). The panini was huge and really good. I had enough leftovers for two days. However, the wings were seasoned well but a little too fried and tough to chew. Overall, the food was good and everyone seemed to enjoy their meals.. I will DEFINITELY be back! read more

I love Mondo in Middletown! This place stays busy and that's because their food is delicious. I wasn't in the mood for pizza so I ordered pasta instead. I ordered spaghetti with garlic, butternut squash and Soppressata. OMG it was DELICIOUS & the presentation was incredible. The waitress went above and beyond and even brought me toasted bread with a side of olive oil and garlic for dipping. My brother got their Sicilian pizza and he loved it. My sister in law customized her own pizza and she was quite happy as well. The restaurant is a decent sized with a small bar. As said earlier it is always busy and they do a substantial amount of take out business as well. Definitely should be on your list! You won't be disappointed! read more

Mondo knows how to have Happy Hour on Weekdays 3-6. Had their incredible house white Sangria $5.00. Also I tried an item off the regular menu that not on the HH menu today. I had the Risotto Fritters that are homemade three cheese risotto fritters served with whipped ricotta. $12.95 and you get 6 good size balls. They were very filling and delicious. Try them you won't be disappointed. and of course the White Sangria was an added touch with the blood oranges that are freshly cut up in it. Grab a seat at the bar and get quick service and wonderful service. read more

I've been to Mondo for pizza a few times, but until a few months ago, not since Portnoy gave them an 8.1. When I previously visited, my expectations weren't quite met, which probably had something to do with all the great buzz Mondo gets. For my most recent visit, I ordered a sausage and pepper pizza, and it was the best pizza I've ever had from Mondo. I'd call Mondo New York style thin crust. The sausage was in crumble form and the sausage juices flavored the pizza well. The peppers were good. The pizza had a good mix of crisp and chew. Average floppiness for a thin crust pizza with toppings. Nice cheese. Service was friendly and efficient. I'm far more likely to return to Mondo after this experience, than my prior experiences. 4.25 Stars read more

Mondo has been consistently great for a long time. Not only do they have great pizza, the rest of their menu never disappoints either. They have a small but delicious selection of pastas that always hit, and a bunch of paninis and salads. Our server was super friendly and I think their prices are fair too. This visit we ordered a Nate's lunch pie and a Waldorf salad. Their crust is thin, crispy, and chewy. This pizza had garlic, cheese, fresh tomatoes, bacon, and basil. It was delicious! I added lots of chili flakes as I often do, and next time I might ask if they could bake some into my pie because it was really good that way. The salad was fresh and perfectly dressed. It was an off time, but they were still busy, and there can often be a wait in the evenings to sit down. It's a fairly small space and can get a little loud when it's super busy, just as a note. They're definitely worth the visit though! read more

Had another wonderful visit to Mondo's in Middletown. This time I tried their spaghetti and meatballs, and as always, the pasta was cooked perfectly. The sauce had a sweet, fresh flavor--almost like a spremuta di pomodoro--and I could tell the meatballs were prepared separately since their flavor stood out on its own. I really enjoyed the meatballs; you could clearly taste the blend of pork, sausage, and Parmesan cheese. I was pleasantly surprised that the portion of pasta matched the volume of meatballs, which you don't often see--usually, there's far more pasta than meat. Our waitress was polite and friendly. Even though the restaurant seemed a bit understaffed that night, she was attentive and kept a smile throughout. My only critique would be the seating and décor. The wooden chairs aren't very comfortable, and the interior could use a refresh--it feels like it hasn't been updated in about 15 years. Aside from that, Mondo's remains a wonderful local spot that serves consistently delicious food with great service. read more

This is one of my go to pizza places! We usually get a bacon or pepperoni, but we opted in for their specialty pizza. It came with bacon, pepperoni, sausage, onions, peppers, olives. The crust has just enough crispiness and the pizza isn't soggy, even with all of the toppings!! Service was quick, even with a little bit of wait time. read more

Since my last review, I have gone to Mondo more often, and have figured out that I only like their pizza when I dine in. I don't like it take out, and I don't like it cold, or reheated. It's a good choice for pizza in Middletown, when you're able to enjoy it hot and fresh! (They do a HUGE takeout business so I can assume most of Middletown disagrees with me lol...personal preference!) They have a great happy hour, and a few outdoor tables. Their salads are excellent, and large enough to share, if you're also getting other items. The staff are friendly and they hustle! read more

Delicious! First time here as I was in town visiting a friend. The perfect spot for a yummy lunch. They serve pizza by the slice, but also have other yummy specialties. I opted for the meatball panini, while my friends got salads and single slices. The Zuchinni fries were well battered and perfectly seasoned. We left happy and full. read more

What a gem of a pizza place! Super easy parking in the back. Very friendly and professional staff. Really really great pizza! Reasonable prices! Even the bathrooms are clean! In all seriousness, try the pizza that has the salad on top of it. Very different and really yummy. Truth be told, their regular old cheese pizza is probably my favorite of theirs. The crust is a fabulous texture and the sauce has just the right combination of savory and sweet. We sat in the bar, both times we came and had the same server and she was fantastic! I am a big fan of this place and can't wait for my next visit! read more

We've been Mondo's fans for over a decade. Easily the best PIZZA in the area! The place is always well staffed with an energetic team. They have tables inside and out on the Main St sidewalk. The bar has a great selection of brews on tap and in the fridge (bottles/cans) as well as a selection of wines. read more

My brother and I came here for my birthday and I have been here years ago, and the pizza was delicious. As I walked in the establishment, it seemed bigger when I was here years ago but we were immediately seated. The waitress came to are table right away and took are order. We ordered a large pizza with half Pepperoni. The pizza had a nice undercarriage and the sauce was very flavorful and delicious. The crust was crispy but there was so much cheese. I don't mind extra cheese but the cheese was just so thick. That's only con I would have to say about the pizza. The customer service was great as the waitress came to are table to check on us often. Five stars for customer service. read more

Great menu and atmosphere with very friendly staff. Good value also have great lunch specials

Mondo continues to deliver the best pizza in Middletown at a great price point. You can't beat the lunch special with all its choices! I've been a fan since they opened in 2010, but moved out of the area six years ago. It's so comforting to know I can rely on Mondo to deliver thin crust pizza that doesn't flop. No fold necessary! We visit whenever we're in the area and last Friday we scored a table outside in the sunshine. Our server was friendly and took great care of us. We had time constraints and it was no problem whatsoever. Thanks to everyone at Mondo for a great product, atmosphere and attitude. read more

Great pizza. We opt for takeout because it gets really noisy in there. Probably because it's so busy, right? read more

Ordered Mondo for dinner again tonight, it's Friday!! Normally we have mainly ordered pizza. Tonight I wanted a meatball panini and hubby loves wings. We've never ordered either from Mondo. OMG they were delicious. The panini was huge but awesome and the wings were cooked perfectly and the sauce on each was delicious. Delivery was quick and food was great!! We will definitely be expanding our orders in the future. read more

We parked on the street, no problem. It was a late Friday afternoon. We walked in and others were waiting to sit. There were 3 or 4 girls behind the counter. One asked if we were dining in or picking up. Soon there were others behind up, crowding the doorway, waiting to be seated. Finally one of the girls huffed and ran to get menus, telling us to sit wherever we wanted. We proceeded to go outside and sit there. The inside was dark, but lively. It was a beautiful day to sit outside. Thankfully, our server was very pleasant. We ordered 2 small pizzas, which are more medium sized. We got the Bianco with spinach and a pepperoni. Wow! Bith were delicious! The spinach wasn't too much, although my husband didn't care for the spinach, he did like it. There was plenty of pepperoni. Thin crispy crust and very tasty! My husband ordered a beer from their own brewery and loved it. Make sure you grab dessert, too. Ariana packed us 2 desserts to go. They have cupcakes and amazing cheesecake. No wonder this place is on the list of top 20 pizzas in CT! Go try it! read more

Our team got a few pizzas for a work party. They were light and crispy and flavorful. The sauce was robust and didn't overpower the toppings. We tried the pepperoni with hot honey, the cheese, the veggie, a pizza with spinach and ricotta base, and barbecue chicken and all were equally delicious! read more

Middletown, surprisingly, has a large number of pizza spots, and Mondo is one of my favorites. The crust is on the thinner side but not too thin that the pizza gets soggy. I also just like the taste of their sauce and toppings a lot; I thought the cheese and margherita were both perfectly balanced, though some of my friends did think the cheese was a little greasy. Be sure to ask for a side of hot honey! It adds an extra layer of flavor. read more

Here for the second time. An impromptu meeting and was surprised that they were open at 11am. Our server was so nice and took good care of us, adjusting the umbrellas so we could enjoy the beautiful day and still see each other. We enjoyed some small plates, but would have tried more if we had the time. Great place to enjoy the afternoon and take in the foot traffic of a bustling Middletown food scene. read more

Excellent pizza with lots of gourmet options. The meatball appetizer was delicious too! Good service and a lively atmosphere.

Had the vegetarian pizza and eggplant spaghetti. Service was really good! Will definitely go back.

The food here is just amazing. We picked up pizza to take home to family and it was just incredible. So 2 days later we went back and ate there. Everything we ordered was perfection and our server was Jayden and he was super helpful and caring and efficient. Great Italian food and great service. read more

Once again, I was blown away with my dining experience at Mondos. I went in after the dinner rush and asked if I could get a pasta dish not on the menu. Our outstanding server, Heather, said she would check with the kitchen. They said it was OK, and I ordered spaghetti sautéed in garlic and olive oil with sautéed onions, mushrooms, red roasted peppers, spinach, olives and sausage. Colby made the dish for me and it was one of the best pasta dished I have ever eaten. It is one thing to find a consistently good restaurant, but to find a restaurant that gets better every time we go in, is truly special. read more

Normally I am a big fan of Mondo pizza but depending on who's making it it's hit or miss. Dining in is always great, delivery is sketchy. Just ordered my usual for delivery and it was terrible! Hardly any sausage and barely any cheese and cold! Very disappointing! read more

Some of the best pizza around, gotta love their meatball panini and the Buffalo chicken pizza is a must. Can't wait to go back and try more!

I stopped in here since I was in town for an appointment. I heard this place was good and I read lots of positive Yelp reviews so I gave it a go. It was pretty quiet as I arrived shortly after they opened. I sat at the bar and was immediately greeted by the friendly bartender. I ordered a San Pellegrino and browsed the menu. I decided to get the lunch special of a 1/2 portion of salad and 2 slices of pizza. I brought home most of the pizza as it was a lot of food. The polenta croutons on the Tuscano salad were warm and slightly crispy- life changing! There was a bit too much dressing on the salad but it's my bad- I forgot to ask for the dressing on the side. Both slices of pizza were warm and flavorful but I think the fresh mozzarella was my favorite. I'll bring friends with me next time because the food was delicious and the service was excellent. It's also easy to find on Main street and has a fun vibe. read more
