The place has two seating arrangements in the periphery and one big community table in the middle that could fit maybe 10 or more. There's also bar style sitting overlooking the pizza makers. Overall, the place is small, but just enough. Take out folks come in to the cashier as well. Getting your pizza will take a while though. This is not your neighborhood pizzeria where you get a premade pizza and slap some toppings and 5 minutes later you got your pie. No folks, this is order pizza and wait about 20+ minutes for my pizza to arrive. I'm sure the take out folks may have something to do with it too. We will definitely be back to try the other creations.

The restaurant is a small establishment with street parking only, but we were able to find a spot without too much trouble. Walking in, the atmosphere was pretty simple and straightforward. There wasn't anything particularly memorable about the décor, and it reminded me of a neighborhood bar from the 1980s. That said, it was clean, comfortable, and felt like a casual local spot. The service was one of the highlights of our visit. Everyone was friendly, our order was taken quickly, and the staff was attentive throughout our meal. We both ordered build-your-own pizzas, and while they were good, the crust wasn't quite what we expected. The sourdough crust was actually the thinnest pizza crust I've ever had and didn't have the fermented sourdough flavor or texture I've experienced elsewhere. I was also a little disappointed that there wasn't a vegan cheese option, especially considering the extensive menu and variety of toppings available. That said, the pizzas were enjoyable, but both of us tend to prefer a slightly thicker crust. If you're a fan of ultra-thin crust pizza, Dutch Crown will likely be right up your alley. While it wasn't exactly what we were expecting based on the sourdough description, the friendly service and quality ingredients still made for a pleasant dining experience.

my name is jody brown and i live in pleasant valley ny for the past two years, i love pizza i can eat it every day. i do not like the pizza joints in pleasant valley their food is not good at all, i have tried everyone up here and around here, and then my husband told me about vera's and i said what the heck and ordered from there, the pizza was cooked well, but not burnt just the way i love it. it was nice and hot. the cheese and pepperoni was fresh and easy to eat, where i live the pizza is always either burnt or under cooked and the pepperoni and cheese taste like card board, so it is a treat for me to eat something as good as vera's pizza. thank you very much jody brown read more

I don't think the owners are even aware they make good Brooklyn pizza. They're just eager to please their clientele. They offer a broad variety of pizza combinations and the talented pizza slingers will create a pie to suit your taste with any combination from their arsenal of flavorful toppings. The pizza is on point from first bite to crust, also there is nothing disappointing about their menu from appetizers to entrees... WELCOME TO FLAVORTOWN oh I meant Florina's. They put most of their effort towards the menu rather than decor. The place is a simple pizzeria decor and exceptionally clean. It's a 4 table establishment and the locals know it, so they pump out massive amounts of deliveries and pick up orders. Their pride is proven in every bite. It's road trip worthy and if passing through it's a must stop by. YUMMY TUMMY!

Stone's is worth the ride. Outstanding food, friendly people, and a comfortable, casual atmosphere. I'm already planning my next trip for sandwiches and a pie to bring to my brother's house. If you're traveling Route 9 through Wappingers Falls, stop here.

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.
