    Leftovers zzza.  New Haven style. Dope.
    Seth F.

    Excellent old school family local vibe in Orange, west of New Haven, off 95 easy to get to. Was great for a fast dinner driving from Boston to the city. I had a clam casino pizza and my son had....i have no clue (pepperoni pizza and a Caesar) don't remember. Great value. Love the servers - very experienced! But he was happy. Recommend.

    Chicken scarpiello
    Allison K.

    Small but very cozy joint in a strip mall that you've probably driven past 100x. Well it's time to stop in! The service is so friendly and accommodating. They told us over and over ANYTHING CAN BE MODIFIED which is so refreshing. From the very delicious rosemary garlic focaccia in the bread basket to the thin crust pizza to the delectable entrees - there were no misses here. The pasta was some of the best we have had in Connecticut. Just don't hesitate. Pop in and thank me later!

    Cosmo and a shared portion of carbonara
    Maria K.

    This was a gem! We were in town for a family wedding and got in the day before. After an agonizing day in traffic we searched for options and decided on Andini's. It was a Friday night but we didn't have to wait long for a table. Most of our party got pizzas which were gorgeous but my daughter and I decided to share the carbonara. They even offered to bring it out in separate dishes. The half portion in my picture was more than sufficient and I even had leftovers to warm up the next day. The cosmo was exactly what we needed to unwind and my hats off to the lady tending bar because I was feeling great in no time. Too bad our trip was short but I highly recommend you give this place a try if you're ever in town.

    Cajun fettuccine

    I was leaving work and was surprised to learn I had a flat tire! After getting a donut I headed to Costco tire center and eventually worked up an appetite and thought I deserved a glass of wine! I yelped the area and found Andini's! I walked in and it was almost every table was taken and people were at the bar! I was still able to snag a seat. I ordered the cajun fettuccini which was delicious and huge leaving me with a ton of leftovers! Also, treat yourself to their bread!! It was the freshest, softest pillowy bread that they bake in-house! I enjoyed a delicious espresso martini that was made perfectly! The bartender was very friendly, personable and awesome! I will definitely be back!

    Ceasar salad

    Came here with family for Father's day dinner. Cute little Italian restaurant. The service was great and so was the food. I ordered the chicken marsala which came with mashed potatoes and veggies. It was so flavorful. We had a great time and will definitely be back to try other dishes.

    Cajun Fettuccini with shrimp
    Shirley F.

    We visited Andini a few weeks ago, definitely recommend it! The Cajun Fettuccini was great (not too spicy) and the Chicken and Shrimp plate was light and tasted delicious. They also serve great bread! On a Tuesday evening a good amount of people were there but the food didn't take extremely long to come out. The waitress was also very nice.

    Half cooked stalks of broccoli rabe everything else was good but the rabe turned an enjoyable dinner into a bad experience.

    Do they offer gluten free pizza? Love this place as I know they have other GF options, but unsure of pizza.

    Yes, we do offer gluten free pizza. It comes in a small personal size. Just call a day or so before your visit to make sure that we have it on hand.

    8 Thousand Pizza is a pizzeria and pour-your-own taproom that opened in Milford, Connecticut in…read moreNovember 2023. It was founded by restaurateurs Skye Kwok and Tommy Nguyen. Kwok has more than 20 years experience in the hospitality industry. Some of the other restaurants he has opened include Sweet Basil in Fairfield, Pink Sumo Sushi & Sake Cafe in Westport, and Eat Noodle in Bridgeport. Kwok and Nguyen's latest venture opened at the Connecticut Post Mall in a restaurant space that was previously home to Cast Iron Chef Kitchen & Bar, which specialized in tavern-style pizzas cooked in a cast-iron skillet. 8 Thousand Pizza offers this same style of pizza, but what sets them apart from the previous pizzeria is that they also offer self-pouring technology, which became legalized in Connecticut in 2021. The food menu features two dozen tavern-style pizzas as well as burgers, wings, fries, salads and soups. Through the use of a supplied electronic bracelet, customers can self-pour their own beverage from a selection of 28 craft beer taps and 6 wine taps. There's a two-pint or 32-ounce limit for the self-pours. I recently visited 8 Thousand Pizza for dinner. I had previously visited the space when it was Cast Iron Chef Kitchen & Bar and was sad to hear that they moved. However, this new business concept of a tavern-style pizzeria with self-pouring taps sounded very interesting to me. This was actually my first visit to a self-pouring taproom, as these types of establishments only just began opening in the state in the last few years. After looking over the menu, I decided to order the "Grandma's Tomato Pizza" (fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, roasted garlic, tomatoes and EVOO) and the "Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza" (tomato sauce, pepperoni, hot honey sauce and mozzarella cheese). The latter happens to be 8 Thousand's signature pizza. Both pizzas had crust so thin that it's almost cracker like; they didn't flop at all. They were super crispy with excellent sauce and toppings. I honestly can't decide which one I liked better; they were both very good. During my visit, I enjoyed some self-pours of Grey Sail Brewing's "Captain's Daughter" (Double New England IPA) and New Park Brewing's "Cloudscape" (American IPA). Delicious pizza with craft beer is always an excellent pairing! I had a really nice experience at 8 Thousand Pizza and I hope to return with my family.

Paying by the ounce. Service was nice and attentive. But you have to go up to the counter to order. Many of the betas were out or empty. I did like that. They had a wide selection of glasses available for the different styles of beer.

    Stuck between the laundry list of pizza places in CT? Trust me, this is the spot. I'm not from CT,…read morebut frequently visit due to my fiancée living here, and I've had plenty of pizza places that are widely known here. Modern Apizza in New Haven did NOT disappoint. The crust, flavor in each bite, the variety of toppings, and everything you want in a slice of pizza was there. It is a busy spot, but they definitely had the people to keep things pushing and our waitress was still attentive to us. We ordered a pizza with onions and hot cherry peppers as well as a margarita pizza (if a pizza place can't do a cheese pizza or margarita right, not the spot to eat). The ONLY problem I had was something was falling off the napkins, not sure what it was, and we didn't notice it until the end. It seemed to be from only one stack of napkins, but couldn't tell since it was too late by the time we noticed. If they're cheap quality napkins, definitely should replace, especially because it could have fallen all over the pizza. Again, that was the only downside, but life will go on nevertheless - and it's in a fight to take the #1 spot for pizza place in my book.
