They were so nice!!! My husband got the Italian chicken cutlet grinder and I got the same but on a hard roll. The sandwiches were HUGE and delicious! read more

So I stopped by there today to grab one of their famous chicken cutlet Parmesan grinder's. Yes it is crazy good. I couldn't believe how good it was. All the reviews are correct. I ordered a large one and could only eat half of it. I would have given A rating of five stars but they only take cash, no credit cards taken. read more

Wethersfield Pizza House - Chicken Parm - Pizza Near Me - Wethersfield, Connecticut

This little gem has been open in Wethersfield since 1982 and I have been coming here since it opened as a kid with my parents and now with my husband as most residents of this town. It is now in it's second generation of ownership operated by the daughter & her husband. You will still find her father in the back helping prepare all the food from scratch. No frozen chicken cutlets here! The family uses the left over grinder rolls to make homemade breadcrumbs for the chicken breasts that they make into chicken cutlets, which they make fresh on a daily basis. No short cuts here only quality ingredients. I hear a lot of people make comments that some place they go to makes the best chicken cutlet grinders, but obviously they haven't made it to Wethersfield Pizza yet....once they have they always change their minds. They make Hugh meatballs too! And a really good eggplant cutlet. You can get them just with sauce, with some pasta or on a grinder...hey they will even put them on a pizza too. These grinders are so Huge you almost have to dislocate your jaw to get your mouth around them. Because of this I usually end up pulling a couple chicken cutlets off my grinder and make chicken parmigiana two days later....but hey I'm not complaining. When you walk in the door here its like your walking into your Italian families home. They remember their customers and you usually are greeted with a loud friendly HELLO! Yes, if you love overstuffed grinders this is the place. Order the half.... you'll be lucky if you finish it. They also make a simple pan style pizza, some nice salads with a homemaid dressing & some simple italian pasta meals.....but, most people you see coming in order the grinders...you can't go wrong. read more

Ridiculously great. Went there for the first time a few days ago to order a hoagie. I didnt read the sign that said cash only, but the owner allowed me to head out anyways since I only had a card, trusting I would come back to pay when I had the money (obviously I did lol). That sort of small business mind trust, paired with maybe the best hoagie I've ever had in my life, will surely make me come back. Love the hospitality, love the food. High marks. They will continue to have my business (and this time I'll remember the cash ). read more

I was in town from California and this was one of the places on my list of must-go-to. I used to go here a lot when I was younger and lived nearby, and remember them having the best grinders/subs I have ever eaten. Well, 10 years later they didn't disappoint. They are delicious as ever. All ingredient are incredibly fresh and of high quality. I ordered the Italian and my girlfriend got the chicken cutlet (which they are famous for). We each got a half (which is HUGE!!!) and took most of it home we were so full from only part of it. The owners are so friendly and act as if you are an old friend or one of their family members....can't find service like this too many places anymore. Seriously, go here only if you want to be disappointed by every other sub/grinder you ever have from anywhere else after this; these people do it best! read more

HOLY SANDWICH. That is the ONLY way to describe Wethersfield Pizza House's chicken cutlet sandwich. I was fantasizing one day with one of my friends who has been a Wethersfield native about the best local grinder shop. After sharing some stories, he dared me to find a better chicken parm than at WPH. Challenge accepted! Boasting a window-front sign that calls out "Home of the Chicken Cutlet", it is truly epic if not legendary. I've been here half a dozen times now and that's all I have ever ordered (yeah, it's that good) For about $8, you are treating yourself to a "half" grinder. Do NOT be fooled because it could easily be a foot-long and half as high! Not sure if it's the 6 thinly sliced and lightly battered pieces of chicken, not-too-sweet-or-salty sauce, or fresh mozzarella - this sandwich monster/grinder beast is perfect. I always say to myself I'll get a whole one day, but by the time I finish inhaling the half, I immediately catch the 'itis' - that can't be a bad thing, right? Plenty of tables inside it's a cash only establishment - however there is an ATM machine on-site. Come see Maria and her family, they'll definitely take care of you! read more

This place reminds of an Italian pizza shop in New York. Bravado, friendly and they speak Italian to each other. I came in here for the pizza. I thought the pizza was pretty good, but the crust was thick. Definitely not New York Style. I want to come back here for the legendary sandwiches. read more

Wethersfield Pizza House - Pizza Near Me - Wethersfield, Connecticut

Great customer service. Very friendly and gracious to us, especially with this being our first visit. Generous portions, very tasty.

Wethersfield Pizza is where it's at when it comes to grinders. Honestly that's all I've eaten there. Chicken cutlets, meatball and pepperoni are my favorite to order. They make the best grinders in the Hartford area, maybe even in all of CT. Large portions, perfect bread and good quality cold cuts. Cash only but they have an ATM inside. Great place, family owned. read more

Something has changed! Either their sauce or breadcrumbs for chicken parm grinder. I was obsessed with it and the last 2 times (I hadn't been in a while)was absolutely different! read more

Thank you for knowing how to make a sandwich properly. Never disappointed! If you're eating alone... all you need is a half

Huge grinders. Very tasty. Today was my first visit but it won't be my last. Staff very friendly and personable. I had the Italian Chicken Cutlet I order the whole grinder for 2 people we could only finished half. read more

Who knew chicken cutlets could be this good? Trust the reviews, best chicken cutlet sandwich in the area. A must try. Thin chicken cutlets layered to make a delicious sandwich. I tried both chicken farm and classic (with lettuce, tom, cheese, mayo) and they were both terrific. Half a sandwich is plenty, whole sandwich will last you a few days. Very friendly owners who enjoy seeing new people come in to give a try. read more

Chicken cutlet was amazing! a lot of thought and care went into this recipe, chicken was juicy, flavorful sauce tasty cheese and phenomenal bread! and a weekend size portion. This could be the greatest chicken parm sandwich in America. read more

I was at this Pizza house about 2 weeks ago..IMPRESSIVE!! They are so WARM and welcoming!! I ordered a Roast Beef Sandwich. The meat was piled High on the bun!! NICE and rare and tender Roast Beef. It must have been Angus! LOVED IT!. The portion was so large I could not even finish my 1 half and I wrapped up the other half too for later. What a VALUE! Anyone would be hard pressed to find a grinder/sandwich place that really gives such large portions, AND are so welcoming and pleasant. Nothing like a family owned sandwich/grinder shop. Their attentiveness and warmth and is a character trait that other businesses should model!! I highly recommend for pizza or an OUTSTANDING sandwich when you are in the neighborhood. Keep up the pleasant ambiance. You folks ROCK!...Will be back again soon with my family, friends or clients! Bravo! read more

I've been going to this place for over a year, since my office relocated. I was looking for a good "deli" and Wethersfield Pizza was suggested. When I got there, I noticed that the sign on the window says they are the home of the chicken cutlet. I paused. Being a self-proclaimed chicken cutlet connoisseur, I figured this was a load. I gave it a shot. I walked in to a (very) friendly Maria, who welcomed me with emphasis. I could tell that this was a real, family owned business, which I love to support. I ordered the Chicken Cutlet Americano (sans tomatoes). WOW!! This was the single, VERY BEST, chicken cutlet I had EVER had. It remains so to this day, over a year (and a half) later. This morning, my fiancée was trying to figure out what to make me for lunch (I know...she is awesome). She was having difficulty and explained that to me. I replied, 'Honey, thank you for all of the days you make me lunch. Please don't worry about it toady. I'm going to Wethersfield Pizza for the cutlet.' This place is so good, it was the very first thing on my mind, for food, today (and it was well before my coffee). You can certainly get out of here for under $10; however, most items are a little higher. Being an educated consumer, I choose to look at the value of things and the opportunity cost to procure those things. For under $12, they put what seems like a whole chicken onto a sub (okay...definitely a lb. of chicken)! I get to split that $12 over 2 days, and it even saves me time tomorrow. Bring cash only. They always thank me very much for coming in. This time, I want to thank them for being THE home of the chicken cutlet. read more

My mother had recommended them saying she had gone years ago and that they had thee best chicken cutlet sandwiches. She wasn't lying! I was shocked how many layers of chicken it was and they were perfectly crispy and delicious!! The service was also great - they were extremely friendly and welcoming! read more

Mamma mia, what the heck are the people working here smoking? Have you seen the portion size of their subs here? I am not complaining but I have never seen a chicken parm sandwich with this much chicken parm in it. I love it! I haven't tried the pizza yet. Maybe on a different day. Like I said the subs are great. Be sure to bring cash if you come here because they don't accept credit cards. read more

Wow what a great place for subs Italian dishes and pizza. I was going to order a large Italian sub and the owner told me it was huge and recommended a half. I was glad I listened to him could only eat 1/2. Of the half sub. It was huge and filling with guality meat cheese peppers tomatoes and lettuce I want to emphasize lots of meat. My lawyer is nearby and he recommended the restaurant I'll be back for egg plant parmigiana next time The owners are great and friendly they know their customer which is great read more

The "man" working there at lunch time was extremely rude and unhelpful. If you see by the pics I've posted, a sloppy and hurried approach to making pizza. Out of all of the great places that CT has for pizza, don't choose this one! The woman working there was ok, but was shadowed by the man's ignorance. Find another place for pizza, I already have. read more

Customer service need to improve. I get the whole small, old school thing. One day I came in short on time because I had to get the grinders to the train station to meet a scheduled train. If I don't get the food to Hartford by that time then I'm stuck holding the food. There were no other customers in there but I asked how long it would take to get two whole grinders. Just because there was nobody in there does it mean they didn't have 10 orders in front of me. He asked what kind of grinders. I told him one chicken Parm and one chicken with lettuce tomato and mayo and he turned around and said nothing. I said, "Excuse me, how long should that be?", and he snapped back "You have to understand that I'm only one person". That was the last time I've been in there which was 3 years ago. The chicken grinders are good and the pizza is really not that good. Cash only and poor customer service. read more

Normally I don't leave reviews, but felt the need to defend this place after the completely unfair review from M.D. listed below. I stopped in this week and was greeted, as always, with a smile and gratiousness by the hard working family that runs this place. They put their time, effort and labor into this business and deliver consistently great food. The review noted below was on one of the few days they took off, which, as the review unfairly leaves out, they noted on the door of the business. The wonderful people who run this place work extremely hard and deliver great food, as is obviously from the string of strong reviews. Ignore these unfair reviews from people who just live to complain. This is a family run small business that everyone should support. The people and food both deserve 5 stars. read more

Favorite. Place. In. Town. Lost story short, we are good friends with the owners, but that doesn't sway the fact that their food is i n c r e d i b l e . You go just one or twice, and you are a part of their family. Getting greeted when you walk in and having a good conversation with make up for anything super fancy you could get anywhere else. Good food. Good prices. Huge portions. What else do I need to say? read more

The chicken cutlet sandwiches at Wethersfield Pizza House are so freaking good! Everything is freshly made, the servings are huge, and it's all delicious! I have only gotten sandwiches to go but they also have a small eating area inside. Definitely recommend! read more

I can only echo what others have said; get the chicken cutlet grinder! Two of us split a half, and that was plenty big enough for lunch. The cutlets were crispy, but the chicken was moist, the sauce not overly sweet, and together with the provolone was a great bite. The bread isn't the greatest, the same uninspired bland white rolls you find in most of the area shops, but the filling is what makes this sandwich. The service was great, one of the ladies was having her own lunch, and when we came in she popped right up to ensure our table was clean and that our order was completed quickly. They obviously care about their customers. read more

World's best chicken cutlet, chicken parmesan, and eggplant parmesan grinders. The cutlets on a grinder are layered at least 4 thick (see pictures below), making it a gut buster sandwich. They've been in same place for 20+ years with the same management and recipes. Don't go anywhere else for a wimpy grinder; come here for an awesome sandwich. read more

There are chicken parmigiana grinders, and then there are the colossal, delicious Italian Chicken 16-inch grinders here. Nothing else compares. Stacks of chicken cutlets drenched in tasty sauce and topped with a blanket of provolone. Simple but unforgettable. Go. Now. You will not regret it. Worth every bite of the 3-hour drive for me! read more

This place has the best chicken cutlet grinder anywhere. The staff is awesome I read someone else's review and she thought the chicken had too much breading no way it's tons of chicken and she said someone was swearing maybe because she was being a real obnoxious customer! I've been bringing my kids here since they were babies and have been going to this restaurant for 20 years . I gave four out of five stars only because it does not have a huge menu selection ;we really just get the cutlet sandwiches and because it doesn't take credit cards .You have to use cash and at least there is an ATM if you don't have any . Not offering credit helps keep the cost down that's why they can serve such awesome food. read more

OMG, if your looking for good food this is the place for it. Their Chicken Cutlet Grinders are the best i have ever had. The chicken cutlets are made Fresh daily along with their Meatballs and other items. This place doesn't have a bunch of workers so they make do with what they have. From the min you walk in your greeted and they make you feel appreciated for bringing your business to them. The owners are amazing people, and had a nice conversation about how the resturant started and the hard work that goes in to their food. I went Saturday Aug 10 but they had closed early at 2:30 for family reasons, while i was a little let down it would not deter me from trying their amazingly reviewed food. Going back today and actually getting to try it, was a great Experience. The food wont disappoint . read more

Best chicken cutlet grinder I have ever had hands down!!! I love how once you come here a few times, they know you. They learn your name and your face. They remember things you tell them about you and small talk with you about it and how you're doing. It's the small things I appreciate like this, the old school customer service. The shop is a hole in the wall, family owned and ran, and the quality from the chicken to the sauce is phenomenal. They make the cutlets the night before and cook them fresh to order each day. The grandma makes the sauce homemade, a taste you'll recognize immediately. It ain't jar crap. It's real. Then they stack about 6 of these beautiful cutlets, caressed in this magnificent sauce onto fresh grinder rolls, and bake it to perfection. If you can finish a whole one of these puppies, I salute you. Absolutely amazing. Try em out, seriously. read more

Wow...Chicken cutlet parm is the bomb!!! I have had grinders from here before, usually the chicken cutlet parm, via a good friend picking them up and bringing them to me. They were good cold and reheating. Finally got a chance to go there and eat when it is fresh and hot and just out of this work. The amount of chicken cutlet on the sandwich is insane, I can eat and this will fill you up no problem. Sauce is on point and a perfect for the sandwich. Definitely worth the trip. read more

I frequented this restaurant 25 years ago when I worked nearby and the father and mother were in the kitchen. Recently I was in the area at lunch time so I stopped in and discovered not much has changed. The son is now in the kitchen and the grinder is a humongous as ever. Isn't nice to know somethings don't change? read more

Called them at 5:30 and the lady said they cant make a pizza because they are all out of them, plus they close in 1hr so they asked me to order tomorrow!!!!! Joke! I asked her how can they run out of pizzas since pizzas are made when you order. She said they make pizzas in the morning so as you call 8hrs later they will have it. Never heard of any pizzeria working like that. read more

I just had a Chicken Grinder and it was amazing!!! Great chicken, cheese and bread! Best one in Newington area

Love the people who run this place and they love their customers. Not many places feel like they truly appreciate your business. Gigantic sandwiches. Chicken parm is consistently good with a very good sauce though I've had one or two stringy pieces in the dozens of times I've gone here. There's usually a wait if you didn't call ahead .* I rarely do because I actually like watching the interactions. I've done take out all but one time. The tables are clean and there's usually something on the tv. Goodbyes are as friendly as the hellos. They thank you. I make it a point to go back often--about once a month. Cash only, be mindful of the hours, call ahead unless you don't mind waiting up to 10/15 mins (usually less) * after they cheerfully greet you they always ask "did you call ahead?" read more
