    Caprese salad
    Kevin A.

    Coworkers and I stopped by during our lunch. Very clean establishment. I ordered the caprese salad and I was not disappointed. The server was friendly and responsive. My counterparts had a pizza and a wrap. Lunch was quiet once the food came out so it must've been good, right? I recommend this spot. Give it a shot if you're in the area.

    Food always delicious. Great local pizza without needing to go to New Haven. All day Sunday happy hour!

    Mashed Potato

    We went to this place for dinner last night and enjoyed how they had heat lamps outside which allowed us to sit outside. We ordered the mashed potato and famous clam pizzas. They were new Haven style thin crust but were a little thicker than that for us. The flavors were good but the clam was far too oily leaving a pool of oil behind on the pan. They give you free garlic knots which were tasty but we had to ask a second time for them after our waitress had offered them to us. Our pizza did take a considerable amount of time to come out. While we were eating, an employee and two customers were allowed to smoke within 20 feet of our table and the opening of the outdoor seating, which shouldn't be the case especially on a windy day. I had to mention this to our waitress when I paid our bill and received an apology and that they would look into this situation.

    This place was just ok. The fried mozz was cold in the center. The calzone was 2 meats inside and the meats were kind of off flavors and all bunched together. The pizza was adequate but not allot of flavor.

    The best pizza on the Northside of North Haven. Perfect location right off of Washington Ave. and affordable prices for a quality pie.

    Soooo many onions!!! Large peppers!!!!

    So I've driven past this restaurant many times and have always wanted to try it.... We'll tonight I did and..... well first of all 15$ for plain calamari is insane especially when you can get fresh wild-caught calamari for around 2$ PER LB... but to then pay an extra 1$ for their "N.Y. Style" calamari that is SUPPOSED to be tossed with cherry peppers and Marinara to actually RECEIVE PLAIN calamari with A SIDE OF MARINARA WITH PEPPERS TOSSED IN is absolutely crazier!!!! Their description clearly says fresh fried calamari TOSSED in a spicy cherry pepper marinara sauce.... NOT served on the side!!! I don't even use marinara because I personally prefer cocktail sauce SOOO how would someone like me even know seeing as I don't even open the marinara!!! So I called (because I didn't open the marinara) and first person handed the phone off to a second person and then the THIRD person that was rude, short and in a very matter of fact response said "did you check the sauce?".... I said no because I use cocktail sauce, so she said "check the sauce" because we put it on the side so it doesn't make the calamari soggy!!!!! I said wait so I paid more because you threw a few cherry peppers into your marinara?? I think anyone that reads "tossed in sauce" would or should assume its not going to be AS crispy as plain AND NEVER have I ordered calamari where it WASN'T served with even ONE lemon wedge!!!! So yeah TERRIBLE!!! Then I had held out SOME HOPE for the calzone I ordered with peppers, onions and meatballs which I asked if there was pork in the meatballs and she VERY CLEARLY said NO.... Most traditional meatballs have a mixture of ground pork and beef sooo hopefully she knew what she was talking about!!! Anyway soooo I opened my calzone and it definitely looked delicious...... but as we all know looks can be deceiving VERY deceiving!!!! As you will see I'm the pictures they basically put a WHOLE white onion in and a ton of very poorly cut green peppers and again as you can see in the pictures the meatballs were basically non-existent!!! I still was very hungry so I dug in!!! Absolutely disgusting and COMPLETELY FLAVOURLESS!!! All I could taste was the onions and the ricotta's consistency was not how decent ricotta should have been like and it was a lot!!! No flavour in the ricotta, no flavour in the mozzarella and definitely couldn't taste the meatballs!!! Ohhh and let me tell you about the "sauce".... It LITERALLY tasted like TOMATO PASTE extremely acidic and that is not how it should be!!! So yeah those are probably the reason that on a FRIDAY EVENING they're DEAD and EMPTY!!! None of them were nice personable OR EVEN SMILED!!! Although the young kid (male) that took my order was smiling personable and helped so that I could use Apple Pay!!! So for calamari and a small calzone I spent 43$ DOLLARS and left him 5$ for FOOD THAT WAS COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY INEDIBLE!!!! Maybe people like their food and customer service after a few to many drinks because for me that is a hard NO and never again!!!! I'm sorry but with everything being a bit more expensive and the amount of competition there is you'd think you'd actually ATTEMPT to make people happy and serve food that tastes decent and is actually edible or at least attempt to rectify the problem!!! Nope!!!

    I love a company luncheon, because it means I get to try out a lot of different things all in one…read moremeal. Christmas lunch has got to be the best because we usually order 2 or 3 of most of the appetizers, a couple of each of the pasta dishes, a couple of each entree and then we end our meal with coffee and dessert. Bellini's is a beautiful Italian restaurant that was serving a few company lunches as it was just before the holidays. We were seated at the front of the restaurant at table for set for 14, surrounded by windows on all sides. We started with the hot Antipasto Caldo, from the dinner menu, Calamari, Calamari New York style, and Broccoli Rabe with Sausage. A few of us had garden salads with a super garlicky dressing. We ordered the Penne Amatriciana, Gnocchi Napoletana, Penne Vodka. I only had four of the Penne Vodka and two Gnocchi, but what I had was good. We ordered Chicken Marsala, Chicken Parmigiana, and Grilled N.Y. Strip. All of which received many compliments. There were too many desserts to list but I had part of a Tiramisu, which was amazing. My cappuccino was perfect even without the addition of the rock sugar stick that was offered. The staff was attentive and we were never left needing anything. If we requested something one of the servers would be back within minutes.

    Another 5 star experience at Bellini's. When we heard about the recent takeover, we were worried,…read morebut the food was as amazing as ever. The seafood crepes were fabulous, as were our entrees. Our waitress was attentive and we cant wait to go back.
