I think of myself as a pretty open minded person. When debating with friends about sports, politics, current events- I always try to respect everyone else's opinions, allow myself to possibly have my mind changed, or agree to disagree sometimes. That being said- there is one debate where I will not give an inch, will not back down, will not be dissuaded or told I am wrong: Supreme has the best grinders- full stop. Every aspect of every grinder I've ever had from them (that number is probably nearing four digits, since I've been coming here since the early 90's) has been flawless. The fresh bread, the meat, the cheese, the crisp shredded lettuce- all comes together to form THE perfect grinder, every single time. I can't think of a single other restaurant where I've never thought, "Eh, not their best." A supreme grinder will hit the spot day in and day out. The grinders aren't the only place Supreme shines though- the pizza is out of this world. Living in southeastern Connecticut, I'm well aware that I'm spoiled when it comes to pizza. Within a stones throw, there are a half dozen excellent options. When I get that craving, though, Supreme is always my top choice. As good as the meals are, half the fun is going to pick it up. Tim, Nick, and the rest of the staff create a friendly, fun, and vibrant atmosphere where something as simple as picking up lunch makes you feel like you're visiting family. Oh yeah- Don't forget the rice pudding! read more

I went to Supreme Pizza in Waterford CT, unfortunately my experience was disappointing. I ordered a small turkey club with light mayo and oil and vinegar, but the oil and vinegar were never added to my sandwich. While it is clear that they take care of their regular customers, they also need to pay closer attention to and accommodate new customers as well. Because of this experience, I was disappointed and will not return when visiting Connecticut again. read more

A good, but not great slice. Good amount of cheese and sauce and cooked well. Closer to thick crust than thin. Friendly people. Limited amount of seating inside, but most of the business is take-out anyway. Will definitely have to try a fresh small or large pizza sometime. read more

Small little place with limited seating, but the food and service is absolutely worth it.....Hawaiian pizza for lunch was incredible ! Thank you!! read more

Supreme Pizza - Hawaiian pizza - Pizza Near Me - Waterford, Connecticut

This is probably the best pizza in town, it's well constructed, great ingredients- especially the sauce. I particularly like that they put the sausage and onions under the cheese so that it stays nice and moist as well as bringing all the flavors together. I haven't seen any comments on the salads, they are great and again have quality fresh ingredients. The atmosphere here is super friendly, but these guys are operationally super efficient. They seem to genuinely have a good time working together and it's a fun place to work. Awesome! read more

No organization equals rude customers. You told me when to pick up my pizza and I was there. You tell me I'm a rude customer, but I think your business is run terribly. I will never be back there and I think that if you really want to sell mediocre pizza you should do it Without being rude to yourself, bro. read more

I was contemplating an eggplant grinder as I'm very particular about eggplant. Being Italian, we like it a certain way. Not Greeky, meaning there's too much oregano and no sauce. I took a chance and ordered a small. He told me it would take about 15 mins. Just by saying that, I knew it might be good. OMG. It was 1/4" thick, not mushy and overcooked, flavorful and I could actually taste the eggplant on the cheesy crusty bread. The small was HUGE with half saved for tomorrow's lunch. Not only do they have the best Tuna in town, their eggplant is right up there as well. DELICIOUS! read more

I just wanted to say that the service was amazing and the food was delicious! 10/10! I would tell anyone to go here!

I have had the Chicken Cutlet & the Tuna sub now & BOTH were FANTASTIC! Chicken cutlet was a really generous pieces of white meat chicken breast lightly breaded & fried. The tuna salad with provolone is fresh also. The BREAD they use for their grinders is pillowy soft but has a bit of a slight chew that holds up to oil & vinegar or any vinaigrette. This place is CONSISTENTLY EXCELLENT. The use fresh quality ingredients in all their menu items. The staff are always extremely friendly, courteous, helpful & efficient! DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED! read more

Always exceptional service and the best grinders in the area, bar none. My absolute go to place in the area.

Stopped in to try cause the reviews were good. Very very disappointed with the tuna grinder I got. Awful flavor, very fishy. I actually gave it to my dog. The pizza was very bland too. My husband got the chicken cutlet and it was ok. The seating is terrible. Maybe 3 tables total, when the door opens all you feel is the draft blowing on you. I will not be back and I do not recommend this food. You feel like a loser eating here! We will not be back. read more

Supreme Pizza - Tuna grinder, chicken cutlet grinder - Pizza Near Me - Waterford, Connecticut

I've only ever had 2 items from this Waterford, Connecticut icon and it's only because im a fool who just discovered this place after a lifetime of driving past it. Im picky about my "regular grinder". A cooked salami submarine sandwich with typical veggies. It's easy to make and just as easy to mess up. You need that right combination of bread and ingredients. Well they nail both! Sitting at the counter (and I take my time eating), I get to watch as they make every single sandwich order that comes in, watch as they put food into the ovens and do everything! Now, I never order the meatball sub. Yes I call a regular grinder a grinder and a meatball sub a meatball sub. But when they made it, it looked so good I had to get it the next time and it did not disappoint. Their red sauce is sweet, I guess you'd have to say which I like! Some red sauce is more tart. I don't know of the red sauce is the same for the meatball sub as it is for the pastas but I wouldn't complain. They sell pizzas, grinders, and a few salads and pastas. They have plenty of free parking. The staff has a wonderful camaraderie and they make me laugh and that's not always easy trust me. Sometimes simple is good. And this place is great! I just can't wait until the next time I come back to try something else. Apparently their tuna is legendary. It's $8.50 for a large. I saw them make a hamburger grinder for someone else. Epic meal time for that customer. read more

Very good pizza and grinders! Respectful staff and owners. You will not be disappointed. Ambiance level low but you can eat there.

Buffalo chicken sandwich is a favorite. Chef salad is great as well. In the rotation. read more

This is a pizza review only. The customer service was good and I got two slices for lunch and I can only be honest they were terrible and I would never order it again. Maybe other menu items aren't bad I don't know. I wasn't happy though with a bad lunch it's what I look forward to everyday while at work. read more

Every time I visit my sister in Waterford, I make a point to stop for the best ginders in the area. read more

A go to spot for me for grinders for some time now. Super friendly, and great food. Ham grinder and the seafood salad grinders are top notch, and so good I honestly haven't ever ordered anything else. Great customer service, value, and food. read more

One of the best chicken cutlet hero you can get in the New London/Waterford/Groton area. I've never had their pizza, but folks who have have given me mixed feelings. Super nice people. Very homely. read more

The pizza here is deliciousness in a pan. I absolutely love the sandwiches here. The only thing that's difficult here is choosing what to eat. The place is an excellent family place and when you arrive the owners treat you like you're part of their family. If you're looking for a place to love this is your joint. read more

These guys are the very best! Forget all the tricky special deals that the Doms and Papas advertise. At Supreme Pizza the quality is always tops. They take great pride in their pizzas, grinders, salads and pastas. This is why they grow in business when surrounded by the all the soso chains. They make sure every customer is treated better than family. They are always happy to see you. As their loyal customers know, price is meaningless if the quality and taste is missing. Quality and taste is never missing at Supreme Pizza. Try them once and you will be their family too. read more

Supreme Pizza - We could not finish our Sausage and Feta pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Waterford, Connecticut

A lot of the locals in New London recommend traveling down the road to Supreme Pizza. So I took a prospective client so the company would pay for our luncheon on the company expense report. It is located just outside of New London in neighboring Waterford and not to difficult to find. This is Greek style pizza which is a totally new cuisine experience for me. It is a small family run restaurant and after looking through the menu I saw something I had never seen before - Moussaka Pizza! Having made Moussaka from scratch I was intrigued to see what their interpretation on a pizza was all about. My prospective client approved of my curiosity and we split a medium pizza. It appeared with thin slices of artichoke heart on a hearty base of meat (lamb?) topped with Feta cheese. Very different and very good. The two of us could not finish it and it tasted even better the next day for lunch reheated in the office microwave. Found it unusual they had me pay after we had eaten on the honor system. Wanted to return but my busy schedule did not allow for my return. read more

Supreme Pizza - Supreme PIzza Waterford CT. Best Greek Pizza around! - Pizza Near Me - Waterford, Connecticut

Great food and very friendly staff ! I've been going there for years and have always been satisfied. I highly recommend Supreme Pizza !!!

The grinder I had here was to die for! Now it's just a distant dream since I am back on the west coast. The people are great there as well. I highly recommend this, you won't be disappointed!! read more

Supreme Pizza - Omg amazingly delicious grinder!! - Pizza Near Me - Waterford, Connecticut

Locals know the pizza tastes like it's from Big Y. I didn't see slice prices listed and they charged me $8.50 for 2 slices of pepperoni. The 14 inch pepperoni used to be $9.99. I asked for an upgrade to the small pizza and the guy got disrespectful with me and said no I already ordered the slices and that's what I'm getting. He told me I talked too much and he couldn't deal with this on a Saturday and I needed to leave. Then don't own a restaurant if you can't deal with it! Instead of charging me more and making a sale he gave me my money back. Now your stuck with 2 slices of Big Y pizza nobody else wants. A restaurant that had one customer when I came in and one car in the parking lot an hour later when I drove by shouldn't be turning away paying customers during a pandemic. You're far better off getting a refrigerated pizza from Aldi's for $5 near by. You'll save money, it's better and you don't have to be disrespected by a loser who doesn't like it when you don't want to pay $8.50 for two slices of supermarket quality pizza. read more

I absolutely love this place. They not only make great pizza, they make you feel as if they have known you for years. Nick always has a smile on his face and makes pizza as though he were making it for his own mother. There are only few places like this left. I drive 20 minutes out of my way to go there. If you want pizza made with family pride this is the place. They have been owned by the same family since 1979. I cannot say enough good things about this gem in Waterford. Go once and you will become a regular. read more

Another amazing meal. Large antipasto salad and a large tuna toasted. The salads are overflowing with fresh and crunchy goodness. As expected, the large tuna was also equally amazing. Make sure to try the Voodoo chips too! read more

They will continue to get my business for years to come. read more

Unfortunately the other reviewer sadly must not be aware that there are different styles of pizza out there other than New Haven style pizza. Supreme Pizza makes greek-style pizza which is popular in areas of New England. Greek-style pizza, not to be confused with a pizza with Greek toppings, is cooked in pans as opposed to directly on the bricks of an oven (like Italian-style pizza). This process makes the crust thick and chewy. For me, Supreme is the best greek-style pizza that I've had while living in New England (both in CT and in Boston). All the ingredients taste extremely fresh and the pizza is loaded with sauce and toppings. When I was living out on the west coast for a year I missed this pizza maybe more than any other food from back home. In addition to the pizza the grinders are fantastic as well. The bread comes fresh daily from a local bakery and just like the pizza all the ingredients are fresh and high quality. The tuna grinder is worth the trip there alone. Supreme is family owned, everyone there is incredibly friendly, and it's just a great place. We're lucking in this area of CT to be able to have easy access to New Haven, Italian, and Greek-style pizza ... if you've never had Greek-style definitely give them a shot. read more

Supreme Pizza is simply an institution in the Waterford area. It is the type of place where the staff knows the customers and everyone that goes there is treated like they are family. They have a variety of delicious items including their grinders, pizza, and salads. My personal favorites are the tuna grinder (they are well known for it) and the crispy chicken salad. If you get any of their salads make sure to get the house creamy garlic dressing its amazing and will ward off vampires for months, its chock full of minced garlic. The grinders are on super soft fresh baked grinder rolls and they are all made to order. I mostly order takeout from here while I'm at work so I can't really review the sit down portion of service. But I have witnessed the wait staff being very attentive to diners and they are quick to check on how diners are doing. Supreme is just a great place to grab food from. read more

Went with my family here yesterday for a Bday lunch. My mom has been raving about this place for years so I HAD to give them a try. We all got grinders and split a large pizza. Service was wonderful. The pizza was PERFECT!! Greek style, loaded with meats and cheese. Best pizza I've found in my area (moved to Groton about a year ago). I would definitely make the short drive to come to this place!! It's a small joint with not much seating and a basic pizza, grinder and pasta menu. I wish they had appetizers but it really didn't matter once we got our delicious food. Grinders were perfectly toasted on Vocatura's Bakery fresh rolls. I couldn't believe it took so long for me to visit this little gem! I have my solid 3 pizza places I have visited for 20+ years and this one finally makes my list of favorites. Will be back VERY soon!! read more

***I am giving this place one star because I cannot give it zero stars. This is not pizza. My inlaw's actually believe this to be pizza. I don't know what they were thinking taking us here. Southeastern CT does not know anything about pizza. I couldn't believe the amount of people eating here. Have they never had real New Haven brick oven pizza? It was like a bad dream or I woke up in the Twilight Zone or something. What's with the yellow crunchy dough? Cornmeal? It did not even resemble pizza dough. Dominoes would have been a better choice and Dominoes is pretty horrible. I swear there was Oscar Meyer lunchmeat on the pizza. Bad. Very bad. read more

Friendly staff and great pizza. We took a group of 19 for lunch after participating in the Penguin Plunge at Ocean Beach Park. They accommodated our large group with only 20 minutes notice. When we arrived, they had tables set up for us. Pizza did not take long, and 2 L bottles of soda were available for purchase. All of the staff were very friendly! Thank you from the Windsor Locks Leo Club! read more

Pizza is terrible. Might as well buy some ellios and save some money. Italian sub was just okay.

Great local spot for pizza and grinders. The pizza is very good, they have 3 sizes and you can get an 18" large cheese for under $15. The grinders are always good and very generous. The tuna is one of my faves and the bread is always fresh. I dont live nearby but when I'm passing by or bringing pizza to someone's house in the area, this is where I get it from. read more

Grinders are delicious but pizza are inconsistent. Ordered a Pepperoni and got a obviously reheated cheese pizza with some pepperoni thrown on after the fact. read more

This pizza place is in Waterford located near. A driving school the staff is very pleasant and the food is so good. Pizza a whole pie is $10.00 and grinders are very full great to have them order for a office party read more

We have moved out of town so don't get the pleasure of eating here very often. We always make Supreme one of our first stops when we come back to Waterford. The guys that run the place know their regular customers and greet them by name. Pizza is good, especially the onion and pepper pizza and the sausage pizza. But as far as we're concerned the grinder is the star. You can get a sandwich anywhere quite the same. Crusty bread, shaved lettuce, provolone cheese, meat, oil, salt and pepper are a perfect combo! Stop in and enjoy, you won't be disappointed! read more
