Occupying a space that had previously been home to the old Whitney Bar & Grille for a number of years, Odie's Place is a popular watering hall for Hamden residents as well as college students from nearby Quinnipiac University. Many have called it "Hamden's Hideaway". A popular menu item is their unique spin on New Haven-style pizza, with specialty options such as "Macaroni & Cheese" or "Reuben Pizza". Aside from the pizza, the menu also consists of calzones, stuffed breads, burgers, hot dogs, wraps, subs, soups, salads, various bar bites, and desserts. My family and I recently ordered take-out from Odie's Place. A co-worker of mine knows that I'm a pizza connoisseur and recommend that I give Odie's a try. I've driven and cycled by Odie's for years and never really noticed that it was there. It truly is a hidden gem. We decided to order five small pizzas so we could sample a nice variety. I picked them up in person and noticed that the bar had a steady crowd of regulars coming in for pizza and drinks. The bar is equipped with pool tables, a couple of arcade cabinets, shuffleboard, and giant flat screen TVs. The different pizzas that we tried out included "Pepperoni", "Margherita" (white with tomato, basil, garlic), "Mashed Potato with Bacon", "Macaroni & Cheese", and "Clam Casino" (white with bacon, garlic, roasted peppers). Overall, we were pleasantly surprised with the pizzas. Crispy crust with a good amount of char, super thin, good sauce & cheese combo, and great toppings! My personal favorite was the "Clam Casino". I think that Odie's Place is one of the best kept secrets in Hamden and I would love to eat their pizza again in the future!

    Clams on pizza...this sounded interesting enough to try. So we ventured out to the long venerated…read more(or so I understand) joint (some lady's name Pizza) only to find the line around the block. Clam pizza? Interesting but not that interesting. I had scoured Eater's New Haven section earlier that day and seen BAR mentioned for where to get apizza. We traveled into the quaint-ish New Haven core and parked on the street. Luckily, they had just opened, so we were seated upon arrival. We got two pies: the Clam Casino and the Portrait of New Haven. The PoNH was good. The ricotta was a nice contrast to the sausage and red peppers. The Clam Casino was worth the journey by itself, however. It turns out clams on a pizza is a great idea. Large whole clams and bacon with cherry peppers? Damned right. I wasn't familiar with New Haven brand ("apizza" as I've now been told), but the char on the bottom from the wood-fired oven is crucial at holding some topping combinations to a higher echelon than others (where it deflates others): see the other-worldly good Clam Casino versus this-could-be-better-without Portrait of New Haven. Regardless, the Clam Casino would be a go-to if I lived anywhere near here. The inside is huge. We sat in the main barroom. It was warehousey, but a pool table and picnic tables for large parties gave it a cool vibe. I enjoyed watching the bar staff have to hunch under the bar opening, which doesn't hinge up, as we waited for our discs 'o dough.

The portion was big considering the price (~$25 each). Service: one star Service was bad. The staff didn't introduce the food for us they just put the pizza on our table and walked away. Ambiance: one star We visited during Friday afternoon and there's no wait. The table was sticky and shaky. Menus were dirty with spills from drinks or sauce. Would give higher stars if service is better. The pizza itself was not bad.
