This is a fast-food version of calzones that has locations near many college campuses. That's not necessarily it's a bad thing, in fact I liked my food, but I think it's important to note that, especially with the mixed reviews down below. I ordered the chicken Parma zone and husband got the BBQ chicken one. Both were loaded with a lot of filling on the inside and were generally good. The chicken they use for both styles reminds me of those frozen chicken patties cut up into pieces. Definitely not homemade cutlet popped inside - but again - I figured this knowing the crowd they normally cater to. Same for the sauce. Both the marinara and bbq sauce were very sweet, with the marinara more reminiscent of store bought pizza sauce than anything else. Food was cooked quickly and was an easy in-and-out when picking up. Listen, this is not a 5-star gourmet pizzeria. But if you want something that tastes pretty good, is cheap and is filling, then this place is for you. P.S. They often do deals when you order through their app, so recommend looking there first vs over the phone. read more

DP Dough is a fast casual spot that specializes in calzones - pretty much every calzone you can dream of. Its no frills but they really have the basics right . The staff is so friendly and helpful. They do eat in, takeout and delivery. I love it for its simplicity and that you get bang for your buck. Its a huge calzone.!! read more

Dp dough is my guilty pleasure. i was addicted at UConn and was so glad they got a location in fairfield. there was a glitch while ordering with the app and the owner was kind enough to let me get a free calzone. Despite DP dough being a half hour ride from my house its worth the trip. read more

I stumbled in while walking around the area. It was a Friday night so they seemed busy a few people were waiting for their orders. The line to order moved quickly and employees were attentive. I ordere a Pioneer Zone to go. They sell all types of calzones. I enjoyed mine at home the cheese filling was tasty and it had an ample amount of meat in it. I surprisingly enjoyed the sweet marinara sauce it brought for dipping. The establishment has a few tables inside and outside if you'd like to eat there. They also sold some desserts which I did not get a chance to try this visit. read more

Unfortunately the food is not good. I appreciate the try but everything taste like it comes from a jar of jelly.

Recently got to check out DP dough after hearing a friend rave about the one up at UConn. We went on a Friday night. The place is small but think it primarily takeout. The owner greeted us and was so friendly as well as the rest of the staff. A+++ on service and welcoming place! My fiancé had a calzone with cheese and tots added in. I had the passing zone which was chicken cheese tomatoes bacon and ranch. We also got the garlic parm sticks. Everything was great. Only thing I wasn't a fan of was the sauce but I think living in CT we are spoiled. I'm sure we will be back soon. read more

Waited about 45 minutes for calzones that were not even ready. I walked in gave my name he said "it'll be right out". I asked after about 30 minutes and the other guy was nice enough to tell me 40 minutes rough estimate because the order wasn't even started. Really disappointing service and wait time. I can understand when it's busy it's busy. read more

This was our first time trying D.P. Dough, and we definitely understand what all of the hype is about! As a Fairfield U alum, I'm so jealous that the current students get to have this place for late night bites! Each calzone we tried was delicious and so cheesy, and there's so many more on the menu that we need to come back and try! The chicken dunkers were a nice appetizer and we enjoyed dipping them in the jalapeño ranch sauce. Baked Oreos were so good for dessert! The franchise owner Jason was there, and it's so awesome to see how involved and excited he his about bringing this spot to the community. He took the time to chat with everyone who came in the door and is so appreciative of his customers. We know D.P. Dough is going to do really well here! read more

They make good food. But the workers are terrible. got kicked out waiting for my order i was on my own standing i'm a corner

Pretty solid calzones here. We ordered a few different kinds - a chicken scarpariello, a pepperoni and a meatball. All were tasty, though the dough was a little bland. The sauce is definitely sweet, reminds me of TGI Fridays dipping sauce for mozzarella sticks. Not fine dining for sure but for what it was, it was good. read more

I do not recommend this fugazi calzone. I ordered the spinner with extra ricotta cheese. The spinner is supposed to have spinach in it but mine came without it and the ricotta was so watery that it ran all over the plate like a melted milkshake when I cut into it. The tomato sauce is so sickly sweet that it's not worthy of being called marinara. Just call it what it really is: Tomato Koolaid. I'm offended by it and I feel that whomever made it actually is racist against Italian food. That night I had a nightmare that 3 Italian nonnas wearing black lace mourning veils screamed, "L'impasto DP non è adatto nemmeno ai cani" and slapped it out of college student's hands onto the ground. read more

This brings me back.... Umass Amherst in the 90's, URI and UCONN in the aughts. This is a masterpiece of college calzoneri. The names change slightly, but it will always be the Buff'lo Zone to me. Creamy, cheesy, meaty, delicious. This particular location also happened to work its magic into the Missus. She is now open to calzones. (Long story, Ken Burns documentary releases with details in 5 years). read more

So glad they opened one up closer to home as it brings me back to my UConn glory days. This is hands down the best fast food you can get as a college student. Try the OG Coach Jim Calzone (breaded chicken, bacon, cheddar, ranch on the inside and extra ranch to dip), it will change your life!!! read more

It was the most tasteless calzone I have ever had. They advertise ricotta cheese in their calzone as most calzones have as a key ingredient, however I don't even think there was a teaspoon of it. They say their marinara is sweet and they weren't lying. It lacked any other flavoring a marinara should have. I only ate half and threw the rest away while still hungry. The only thing good about this place was the timeliness to deliver. read more

Decent calzone. Sauce is below par. However, I give a 4 star rating because the owner was there at 2:30am and was friendly - he greeted me personally with coupons and menu for next time. Also factored into the rating is the late-night hours. DP Dough is a preferable option when very few options are available. read more

It's pretty good. Had the classic and it was great but the tomato sauce is meh. I'd appreciate better tomato sauce. Too sweet

I had an amazing time here D P Dough. The food is super good and fresh. The service is actually so hype and quick. The ambiance is very chill and cute. 5 stars. read more

If I could give fewer than one star, I would. The dough was completely tasteless, the chicken tasted like it was straight out of the freezer, and the sauce tasted like it came from a gas station. read more

It's open crazy late, which is great for the college students. Even though I graduated 41 years ago, I still appreciate a great calzone. We ordered two and both were delicious. read more

I'm usually a big fan of calzones, especially with pepperoni and chicken cutlet, so I was excited to try this one. Unfortunately, it completely lacked flavor--I couldn't taste anything. It was also supposed to have ricotta cheese, but that was hardly noticeable. For the size and price, it just didn't feel worth it. Disappointing overall. read more

It was my first time trying D.P. Dough and I was unfortunately very disappointed. The calzones were very doughy and lacked any taste it was like eating very dense bread. I did enjoy the variety of fillings but overall it was not a place I would eat at again. The garlic parm stix was arguably the worst item. read more
