Came out to meet up w friends to listen to a band. I've never been to this location and I wanted to order the right drink and food. They have a huge dining room down on the 1st floor and a bar, an upstairs piano bar, a second upstairs lounge with music space and a downstairs function room and it all looks amazing. We sat upstairs to listen to the band. I started off by ordering a small dish and drink. I went with the Polpetti- Meatball, Tomato Sauce, Whipped Ricotta and Focaccia Bread. Which was out of this world. Along with the a mocha crunch martini which was a recommendation from the waiter and I was not impressed by it. The others got the appetizer of the artichoke dish. We eventually moved our way over the Wine Bar that's attached to Sicily and really liked the wine area as it's quieter and have huge wine glasses they use. The bartender was very nice. It's great to be able to just walk up a couple of steps to another part of the restaurant. There is a speak easy bar down stairs but they had a party going on and wasn't able to check it out. It's definitely a higher scale of drinks and they have a wonderful display of the wine bottles in the display. Would definitely return and excited to hear the 2nd Sicily location is coming to Glastonbury.

One of the my top favorite pizza places in Connecticut! The pizza here is amazing. The service is always fast and friendly. Drinks are great. The 1911 hard cider is my favorite here on tap. On my last visit here I ordered the Margherita pizza for $17.00 it was made with San Marzano Tomato Sauce, Fresh Mozzarella & Basil, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Sicilian EVOO. It was delicious. My wife got the Crème Brûlée $14.00 for dessert. She loved it . We had a pleasant time having dinner here. Definitely recommend this place!

Went to Sicily Coal Fire Pizza with coworkers after drinks to keep the vibes going following a farewell dinner. The service was okay nothing standout, but not bad either. While we were there, the liquor authority/health department came in to do an inspection, which was honestly a little scary at first since we didn't know what was happening. It definitely disrupted the atmosphere for a bit. That said, the pizza itself was good and worth trying. Overall, a decent experience with an unexpected twist. Drinks were my favorite part. We shared a margarita tree. It was delicious and cute.

This place is amazing and never ceases to amaze. Everything I have ever gotten here is so good from their crispy fries to their slow roasted for 45 hours Porchetta grinder to their pizza.

The restaurant was very busy during the week of Christmas, but the service was good and the food/drinks were served quickly. I ordered a seasonal Christmas cocktail which was very cute and tasty. I also got the Bianco pizza (without the pistachios) and it was delicious. I have never had hot honey on pizza before, but I loved it. I would definitely go back.

Mommy and daughter date at the bar! The young ladies tending the bar were very sweet. Espresso Martini's, Coconut Shrimp, and Sicily "Hot" pizza with spinach. A great Saturday afternoon in Middletown with my babygirl!

Not-Your-Traditional Bolognese

3.5 stars for me. We came back in March on a night Timmy Maia was playing upstairs. We had a reservation and upon arrival had to wait by the entrance. We wanted to sit in the wine room that's off to the left, as the main restaurant when you first walk in is a bit casual. Better for customers wanting a casual dinner. Nice that they have that and also a more formal area in the wine room. Moving on, the hostess brought us to our table in the wine room and I felt the setup to be a bit strange. Before you take a left into the room, you have to walk by a service area. Not what you want to see before having dinner. Guests shouldn't have to walk by that. Poor design. I will say though the actual room is beautifully decorated. As far as the food, the portions are huge. I got the Harvest Apple salad. Nice presentation how they separate each ingredient in the salad. Delicious. Dressing fabulous too. Boyfriend got the bolognese. Massive. He enjoyed as well. They have really nice wine glasses (also quite large) and a nice wine list as well. We then went upstairs for the band. Nice space. Someone ordered the espresso martini and it must be the Grande Espresso Martini for Two? Not sure however I snapped a picture. MASSIVE! We had a nice evening. The only thing I'd say is try and figure out how to reconfigure the setup in the entrance of the wine room. Not pleasant to see a server area and buckets etc on the floor before having dinner.

Harvest Apple grilled shrimp and fresh bread with olive tampenade
Toni J.

A friend suggested we have lunch at Sicily in Middletown on a Friday afternoon. I had never been so I said sure, but when I saw coal fired pizza, I hesitated. I have Celiac and am GF. A quick review showed lots of options so off we went. The place was very modern, clean with a sophisticated not pizza place vibe. It was hopping for a Friday afternoon. We were seated in the rear of the restaurant near the open kitchen. It was actually quieter there and we were able to have a great conversation. The menu was incredible. So many interesting and unique salad options, a wide selection of entrees and so many pizza options both GF and standard. I chose the lamb chops with a salad. They were perfectly cooked with frisée and fennel salad topped with pomegranate and radish and a siracha aioli. It was good. But not great. I enjoyed it but probably would try something else. My friend had a harvest salad with grilled shrimp. She said the shrimp were crisp on the outside without being dry and had excellent flavor. The salad was huge so she took at least 1/2 home. We were full but who can refuse deconstructed cannoli. To afford my GF needs the cannoli and biscotti bits were served on the side. The filling was delicious. Not overly sweet without being even fresh fruit nested in the center. We split it and still took 1/3 home. We did not order cocktails, but the table next to us had an espresso martini they were sharing that was insane. I included a photo. Service was good, but not exceptional. I would definitely go back

BABY GEM Salad
John A.

Don't let this restaurant's name fool you! This is anything but a pizza joint! We were lucky enough to be seated in a booth in the back. Really nice atmosphere, huge bar, attentive service and a really interesting menu. We shared the Mozzarella Burrata, the Baby Gem salad and the Chicken Marsala. Really interesting and tasty combinations of ingredients in huge portions! Loved our meal!

Eggplant Parmigiana Pizza
Jennifer Z.

We recently ate on the patio at Sicily. We really enjoyed the view of Main Street. Zaben, our server, was super friendly and made some great food suggestions. He also explained they are a scratch kitchen which meant everything was made fresh. It definitely came through in the flavor and quality. We started with small plates. The Boubon Steak Tips ($23) were flavorful and well cooked. The whipped ricotta ($19) was a table favorite! So tasty! We finished with a craft pizza, the eggplant parmigiana ($22). It had plenty of toppings and a nice flavor profile. Crispy on the crust. We took home leftovers, pizza makes a great breakfast! We will definitely come back!

Cheese board and wine
Melissa C.

The wine room was very chique- piano music was nice but may be a little loud if sitting close to it. We went for the half price wine bottle/ cheese board Wednesdays and they also had good happy hour deals until 6pm for both drinks and food. All the food was delicious. Pleasantly surprised by how fancy the cheese board was though so crackers would be nice for the array of jams/ honey to go with the cheese. Prices may seem high but portions are huge- I had enough pasta for at least too meals. Service was friendly and quick. Will definitely return!

When in Middletown, Sicily is worth a visit, especially if Timmy Maia is performing. Get the YOLO pizza. Food: The truffle potato wedges with Parmesan garlic aïoli were the absolute highlight. I wish I had a picture of the YOLO pizza. It was so good the men at the next table were drooling. Drinks: Huge beer selections. 7/10 espresso martini. Service: All hits, no misses. Overall: It's the little things that keep me coming back for more. Go for the show, stay for the truffle wedges! In the summer, the patio is also TDF.

Pathetic, and I will not be ordering again. I initially ordered their large apple salad while at the restaurant, and it was amazing. Every time since then, four times in total, I've received worse and worse results. The salad costs $24.00 for a bunch of lettuce, walnuts, cheese, and cranberries. This time, there are no apples included like the original one I had. What a waste of money. Don't get me started about Grubhub's service that delivered my food an hour late for a SALAD!

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.

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.

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!
