There's been some mixed reviews from Longobardi's lately. In the mid 2000s it was one of my go to…read moreItalian restaurants, but after about 2015, as newer better Italian joints opened (Stephanos), etc. I stopped going. Was here recently for a group outing and while the food was mostly good, it doesn't rise to the level of other local Italian restaurants. Service was slow which is fine, but it seemed they just didn't have enough staff on hand to handle the pre-booked parties. Which was odd. Antipasto was great, and calamari was pretty good. But it is that attention to detail that separates a 3 from a 5 in restaurant land. Bread was meh, and dressing on the salad was weak. And while the calamari was pretty good probably 30 percent of the pieces were pretty soggy. Also the chicken marsala had great sauce but clearly reheated chicken. Now other Italian restauarants locally are guilty of that (recently seen at Stephano's and all the time at Pizza Village) but that alone isn't going to get you a 5 in my book. Reheated chicken has a different taste. Anyway, the review is a 3. Would I come back for a group outing again? Sure. Would I try to dissuade a small group from going here? Yes. Would I go back here on my own? No I would not.

WE WILL NEVER GO TO LONGOBARDI'S AGAIN. Milanese Restaurant in Poughkeepsie and Stefano's…read moreRestaurant in Fishkill are very good Italian restaurants. Consider them as better choices if you're up for Italian, instead of the under-new-ownership Longobardi's. Longobardi's used to be our favorite restaurant when Claudio owned it. I've thrown six sizable parties there over the years - a wedding rehearsal, a baby shower, a retirement party, and three special birthday parties. In total, well over $12,000 for the parties, along with many thousands of dollars over the several decades of going there with just my husband, or with family and friends, about once a month. We loved the food and Claudio, and how he ran his restaurant. The new owner - not so much! Today, Father's Day, June 21, 2026, we chose to go to Longobardi's because that is where one of our grandsons loves to order pizza. The adults, of course, planned to order from the regular menu. We were not surprised to see "THE HOLIDAY MENU" with unacceptably increased prices. That's the norm on a holiday, even Father's Day. It is what it is. What we were very surprised at is that the new owner and manager REFUSED to let our little, sweet, very well-behaved, grandson order pizza because it was not on "The Holiday Menu." Mind you, their attached SAME KITCHEN pizza parlor was making pizzas to go, as we sat at the dining table. Our daughter decided to go to that counter in the back of the restaurant, order the little guy his pizza and bring it back to the dining table. Longobardi's new owner/manager REFUSED, REFUSED, HEELS DUG IN, to let our daughter bring the little guy's pizza to our family table in the dining room, on Father's Day, a family holiday, at an Italian family restaurant, with a pizza parlor. REFUSED, no matter how sweet and kind we were. They told her she either had to take the pizza to go, or the little guy had to eat his pizza in the pizza parlor with her, rather than with the rest of the family and his Pop, on Father's Day. It brought her to tears. So the manager, after she and the pizza guy brought her to tears with this irrational business decision, ruining the Father's Day dinner said, "We'll, I guess I could bring the pizza to him one piece at a time, but I'll have to sneak it in, because I already told another table with children, near your table, that they could not order pizza today." This was too little, too late for our daughter and our grandson. Tears, and not a fond memory. The unacceptable behavior and crazy-wired decisions of the manager/owner had already caused unnecessary customer stress and hurt. Really bad marketing and business decisions on the new owner's part. Claudio would have never forced a grandchild to not be able to eat his pizza with his Pop on Father's Day. This arrogant, thinks-he-knows-it-all new owner basically ruined Father's Day dinner for the family, in the interest of his personal greed. Note, he did the same thing to two other tables near our table, which had several lovely, sweet, well-behaved children. This is certainly not the way to do business with families, on a family holiday, in a family restaurant with a working pizza parlor connected and sharing the same kitchen. The new owner thought he was making a shrewd money making decision to force people to order the expensive items on "The Holiday Menu," in the interest of greed. Greed never works in the long run. He shot himself in the foot. He lost six customers of many decades at our table. We will never recommend Longobardi's again. Many of our friends who have frequented there for decades were heartbroken to hear this story, and will stop supporting that business. Several friends from different friend circles warned us not to go there based on their own and different stories with the new owner, but we decided to give the new ownership a chance, and form our own decision. Should have listened. I'm happy for Claudio that he was able to sell his business and was able to retire; he so deserves it. As for the community - the heart in this restaurant retired with Claudio. Next up, give Milanese in Poughkeepsie or Stefano's in Fishkill a try before going to the under-new-ownership Longobardi's.

One other friend and I both had the Rigatoni Alla Norma -- a light-ish pasta dish, which was very flavorful. Another friend got the Chicken Parm, which he said he enjoyed; I was surprised that it looked a little different from how I've made chicken farm myself (sort of sliced mozzarella on top as opposed to the real deal), but he really enjoyed it! The third person we were with got the mushroom risotto, which was one of the dinner specials the night we were there; we smelled it as soon as we came in the door, and it smelled great! Fortunately, we had enough room to share a dessert and opted for the Tartuffo, which was the highlight of the meal. Overall, the food was super fresh, and we plan to return -- my only suggestion would be to try to avoid any kind of holiday or graduation weekend, as it's super packed (and rightly so!), so it got a little difficult to hear each other. But otherwise, a really nice evening all around.

But they were a pleasant surprise ; warm, soft, and perfect for dipping into that flavorful sauce. For my main dish, I ordered the L'Americano burger. It wasn't the best burger I've ever had, but it was still really enjoyable and satisfying. The fries on the side were classic and hit the spot. All in all, I had a really good time here. Between the friendly service, solid food, and relaxed atmosphere, I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in the area.

Upon receiving the food, the presentation looked very pleasing. We got take out so I wasn't expecting anything crazy. Unfortunately, the food taste itself was not as great at I'd hoped. The dish was a little saltier than I'd expected and there wasn't a ton of eggplant. The rollatini portions were stuffed with ricotta, and I never thought I'd say this but, it was too much. I wanted more eggplant and that meaty, savory element. I've had better eggplant rollatini in the area and I wasn't impressed. It wasn't bad but not my favorite.

I'm ready to make a bold declaration: Stone's is the best pizza shop…read more Not the best around. Not the best I've found in Wappingers. The best pizza shop. Period. I know. That's a ridiculous statement to make about pizza. I'm not Portnoy, and I'm not basing it on one bite and an 8.3. In fairness, I have 10+ reps here now--eating in, taking out and delivery--and at this point I'm ready to pour a little affection on this place. Stone's is just it. Want an exceptional plain slice? It's here. Want some of the best wings you've had from a pizza shop? They're here--and they're frying them in beef tallow. Want a carefully considered specialty slice that actually earns the right to be different? Pick one behind the glass. Want a sandwich? A pizza shop frankly shouldn't be making sandwiches this stupidly delicious, but apparently Stone's decided that was their lane too. The creativity isn't there for novelty. These guys clearly think about food. And that's really what separates Stone's for me: consideration. The dough gets a minimum 48-hour fermentation. The ingredients matter. The wings matter. The sandwiches matter. The sauces matter. The way a slice is constructed matters. There is a level of intention here that you can taste before you ever know any of that. But I probably wouldn't love Stone's this much if it were only about the food. I love the playful banter from behind the glass. I love asking about a slice and getting an answer from someone who is genuinely excited to tell you what they made. I love that on more than one occasion I've been sent home with a few tastes of something I hadn't ordered or hadn't gotten the chance to try. Those little interactions stick with you. The ownership loves what they're doing, they've mastered their craft, and somehow they've managed to make that enthusiasm contagious. There are plenty of places that make great pizza. Stone's feels like a great pizza shop. There's a difference. So, to the ownership of Stone's: keep going. Whatever you're trying to build here, don't stop. It feels inevitable that more people are going to discover this place. Watching that happen is going to be fun. P.S. -- Stone's may not know this yet, but they've developed a strangely loyal satellite market in Garrison, NY. It's basically two houses: mine and my neighbor's. We've figured out both how to make the Wappingers-to-Garrison run and, somehow, how to get Stone's delivered all the way down here. So if an order is making that unlikely trip south, there's a pretty safe chance it's headed to one of our houses. Consider us the unofficial Garrison chapter. Can't wait to watch this place grow. 5/5.

The pizza at Stone's uses ingredients that are of such higher quality than most "slice joints" and their process is top notch. 48 hour fermentation of dough, no cheap seed oils, high quality cheese, non bleached flour, etc. The quality of ingredients and process shows in the final result, and even though it may be a little pricier for a pie than many places, the flavor and quality is light years ahead of most places. I also like that the menu is simple: make a few things and make them well, and you have my business. I've also done a number of large orders (6-8 pies) in the past few months, and they are so nice and hospitable; everyone who works there is just really great in my experience. On the inside, it's a small spot, but it's super clean with a few tables, while you watch them bustling behind the counter. I came in the other day to grab a slice and watch the World Cup action on the TV, which was extra awesome. It's in a funny location on 9D on the way into Wappingers, but the sign caught my eye - glad I pulled in as it's my new favorite pizza spot in the HV. Keep it up Stone's!
