Love Cartelli's! IMO it is the BEST Italian in the area! I look forward to bringing my Dining Out Group there at some point! Plenty of parking too, is always a plus, and so is the pleasant atmosphere! read more

The food was incredible! Great service and atmosphere. We started on the patio but moved inside when it rained and each area had their own charm. The food was the star of the show though! We got the linguine and meatballs and the chicken Dijon. read more

Don't usually have a late night craving but I decided we needed a quick pie. Cartelli's made us a late night snack! Over all it was very good. The sauce was a little sweeter than I like but the crust was crispy and had a nice char. Gave the slight burned taste I love but not overpowering. The jalapeños were a little too chewy for some reason but overall this was a really great pizza! We've been inside before and the ambiance is okay but I prefer taking their pizzas home! read more

Had the Godfather small pizza and it was absolutely delicious. Thin crust and cooked perfectly. Bartender did an excellent job with my old fashions. Small bar/restaurant and definitely a place I will visit again. read more

I've been craving a meatball sub for a while, decided to give Cartelli's a shot at curbing this craving. Price is decent, taste is not that great. The meatballs are definitely homemade, but unfortunately the oregano flavor is SO overpowering that they're just not enjoyable. It was also severely lacking sauce, I had to use the extra sauce that came with the fried mozzarella. The chicken parm sub was good, really big and fairly priced. All in all, not overly impressed, maybe next time we'll try their pizza. read more

The pizza is so delicious. The Cartelli's pizza is solid with prosciutto and creamy ricotta and garlic. We also got a pizza with sausage and pepperoni and it was perfect. The sausage is flavorful and crust is chewy in the best way. Highly recommend. read more

Based on reviews, I decided to try Cartelli's this past Saturday for Pizza takeout. The place was packed with no seats available while I waited. Wait staff were all professional and friendly. I had called in an order for a Large PMO's, and after arriving home, the Pizza looked wonderful. Unfortunately, it was undercooked, and horrible tasting. My wife and I decided to put it in the garbage to go out on Monday. I had been hoping for a new go-to place. I may try this place again next month. read more

omg the food was so good! Everyone is super nice and the service is wonderfu! my husband and I were sitting outside and the owner came out and had a full conversation with us and she was so sweet! We will be coming back for sure! read more

I think the best food in the area. Love the pizza. Last time I had the Vodka sauce with sausage. Just delicious

Found this place on the one bite app for their pizza decided to stop in after a school events that my son was attending. Could not have more pleased! The pizza was an eight out of 10 the buffalo wings extra crispy were cooked. Amazing can't wait to try this place again and the check wasn't too expensive either. The ambience was cool. It was a little hole in the wall, but very nice inside and the service was good as well. read more

This is a local hangout serving up pizza, salads and appetizers. Ordered a Caesar salad and it was fresh. The meatball appetizer however was too heavy on the oregano. Haven't tried their pizzas yet, but they seem to have a loyal following of patrons. Staff is attentive and friendly. read more

This is a must try Italian spot if you're in the area! The food is great, I recently tried the pizza for the first time and was very impressed as well! Service is good! The ambiance is small and a little loud especially late at night but if you're okay with that this is the spot for you! read more

Absolutely worst service. Been there frequently. We walked in and got a nasty look from one of the bartenders and we had to wait for 7 minutes to get seated. Once we sat down, we ordered a bottle of wine and some appetizers. After we have been served those, the server said "oh you only have an hour as we have a reservation coming in". At the end the server brought our check and we paid. She didn't even bring it back and say anything to us, not even a plain "thank you". The same bartender that gave us the look as we walked in brought it back for us and didn't even say anything, just kind of dropped it off and gave us a nasty look. Real pity! The food is amazing but the service is not so much. Why don't they be more welcoming that are there to enjoy the food and good wine vs people that are only there for happy hour. read more

Really good spot in Dover. A little small inside, but we got the Buffalo wings and three pizzas. Cheese, the god father, and the Roma. The wings were good, not bad, nothing to write home about, but good. The pizzas were good as well, the best one was the Roma. Such a good pie. I'd like to try the sandwich version next, as well as some of their pastas. Till next time! read more

Service was nice. Got the fried mozzarella for app, it was good, enjoyed the sauce. For our meal we got the veggie pizza. It has the veggie pizza problem (all the raw veggies baked on the pizza takes away from tasing the cheese and sauce, just taste watery plain veggies and not enough seasoning) read more

Great place for pizza in Dover!! Everything was so flavorful and came out relatively quick for a busy Saturday night. Reasonably priced. The inside of the place is cute but a little tight- someone with mobility challenges or in a wheelchair may have a hard time accessing the restaurant. read more

FOOD AMAZING!! SERVICE AMAZING !! Make sure to make reservations!! It's a busy place because if it being so good !! Went for Toms Birthday and was not disappointed!! The staff are so welcoming and friendly!! We will definitely be going again !! Everyone very nice read more

I have only dined here once but wow! They really need a bigger place. I had probably one of the tastiest penne ala vodka plates ever. It was so good and the serving size was very nice for the price. We also tried their meatballs, which put me into an immediate food comma. So good! My better half had the shrimp scampi over linguine which was also very good. Can't wait to go back and try their chicken parmigiana. As for the atmosphere, it's a little loud and cramped but it's where the locals go and it's packed all the time. A testament to their service, food and community ties. As for me, I can be there in two minutes since I'm fortunate enough to live so close. Recommendations: Penne ala vodka is a must try, as is their meatballs. Support our local restaurants and give this place a try...this is exactly the kind of place you'd see on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives...Guy, where are you? Mama Mia! read more

First time coming here based on Yelp reviews. Outstanding! We celebrated our 46th wedding anniversary and it wasn't a mistake coming here. Katie was our server and was very cordial and pleasant. It's a nice place for a pizza and drinks or a meal. Food was hot and delicious. Definitely will be coming back for a Great Italian meal. Something Rochester was missing. read more

our first time here and it was absolutely awesome. Great service, pizza and wings. We will definitely be back.

Restaurant itself is a bit of a hole-in-the-wall but the food is fantastic. We have had issues in the past with reservations being made yet being forced to wait long periods, but otherwise have had good service. Due to the small size and limited hours they are open, would recommend a reservation. read more

I am new to the area. Somebody told us about this restaurant. We both ordered chicken Parm sandwiches. The first ones we picked up had no sauce on them. They happily made us two new ones. I can't explain how bad the sauce was worse than John pizza sauce to top it off. The chicken was placed between two pieces of garlic bread. It never mentioned that in the menu chicken Parm should have Parm there wasn't any. What was was an extra layer of mozzarella traditionally it's provolone and Parmesan that's on top of chicken Parm very disappointed, threw it out read more

Cartelli's is an amazing gem of a small restaurant conveniently located right off of exit 9 on Route 16. Their food is pricey while also being portioned very well! Their outdoor dining looks super cozy; I have not enjoyed it yet but plan to soon. I especially love the Pesto Alfredo dish because they include mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes. Their spinach artichoke dip is fantastic as well as the bruschetta. Twice now they have made the Ceasar salad I ordered incorrectly. I selected seasonal veggies + roasted red peppers; paying the additional cost and the salad only had the default croutons, parmesean and Ceasars dressing. I will continue ordering from them. Will absolutely let them know if an incorrect order happens again. read more

This creamy pesto dish blew my face off. I looove a really good creamy pesto and theirs is soooo flavorful. We got take out. Our meals were prepared quickly! Thank you!! read more

The first Mediterranean salad I've had in a while I actually enjoyed. Artichoke hearts and roasted peppers were yum and goat cheese. Added crispy eggplant crisps on top were a treat. Penne aka vodka was good and freshly prepared and tasty. The size was huge I have leftovers prob could have split it. Nice to have a good Italian takeout place close by. Glad they opened! read more

We met our family here for dinner. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. The food was delicious and came out in a reasonable amount of time for a busy Friday night. Highly recommend. Only 4 stars as adding garlic bread with the pasta plates would have rounded out the meal and offering a side salad option would have been nice. read more

6 days ago First time trying this place out. Ordered a Bianca pizza and it was probably the worst I have ever had. In addition to it being completely burned and cold, there were entire areas throughout the pizza that were just dough. Absolutely terrible and I was shocked they would have sold a pizza like this. Will never go back. read more

This restaurant just opened for the first time in September 2020. With that in mind, I have been here 5 times as of January 2021. The reason for this is because the food is soooo good. I reviewed another person's 1 star review and was amazed, but when you start a new buisness( Especially during covid) you have a lot going on. I wish people who give 1 star reviews instead of hurting a buisness, told the restaurant about the issue to they could learn and get better. I have tried the wings (2nd best in the area with homemade blue cheese). I have tried 4 different pizzas ( all of mine have been perfect but it was clear early they were working out the bugs). The Brecheta is point on and very authentic. This restaurant is without doubt in competition for the best pizza in all of NH at this time. No other place makes pizza like this outside of Boston or NY! Please support your local buisness, especially if they risk all there money to open during covid. 10 of 10 stars! The environment is laid back and casual. I hope to make this my local hang out after Covid. read more
