This is your average pizza shop. They offer slices, sandwiches, and expected appetizers and desserts. I was at Cafe Nine for the night and this was this closest restaurant that was open late. There are a few booths inside and they play general music. Service was quick and actually very friendly. They weren't too busy so I was able to get a slice of chicken bacon ranch almost immediately. The slice was good! I enjoyed the crust which is what I judge pizza by the most lol. I haven't bought a single slice in a while, and my wallet was surprised to hear $5 a slice, but that's priced pretty fair for the area I guess. read more

Love this place! I eat here often, I always get a warm welcome and a friendly smile from whoever is behind the counter. What ever I eat from a slice of pizza to my favorite garlic knots with cheese to my newest favorite. Sicilian baked ziti! It has meatballs and eggplant mixed in! It's so good! I ate it twice a week ago! The loaded fries, chicken parm! I can go on and on. I work next door and sometimes stay very late, I can get something at midnight when I am leaving!

I live close by so I've been here 3 times this year. The pizza has no flavor but it's in a very convenient location so I've ordered a few slices and added oregano and cheese for flavor. Yesterday, I had a very disturbing interaction with the owner/ front desk attendee. I entered the restaurant to pick up my online order and I was ignored for 5 minutes. I asked the man if my order was ready, he said: "I'm busy. I will get to you when I get to you". I stated that he didn't greet me or say anything and I've been waiting patiently, he continued to make the pizza and continued to ignore me. I will never go back to this establishment. I have never been treated like that in my entire life. If you want to be disrespected and get basic pizza, please check out this establishment. read more

We gave back the mistake and were given the correctly made pizza however, it was completely frozen. My concern is that since they asked for the mistake back that someone else had ours... to reserve food that was left unattended at a strangers house is absolutely ridiculous.

Recently ordered delivery there when working in New Haven and food was excellent. The only inconvenience was that the delivery time almost took 1.5 hours for a hot chicken cutlets sub and cheeseburger with fries. Beside the delivery been slower than I prefer I would definitely order again next time I'm in New Haven and have to take out. One other thing that I didn't like was that they didn't give us any receipt or napkins. Typically I don't care for the receipt but it was a corporate lunch so a receipt was needed to be reimbursed. The driver was nice enough to give us his hand written total. Next time I will make sure to ask for napkins. Maybe, I will try their pizzas next. read more

This place has become one of my go to delivery spots since social distancing began. It's really become one of my favorites. I find that the quality of the food is really up there; even the standard unapologetically junk food-y appetizers are done with a higher quality. I usually order for the salads, which I find are a great value. They're huge and are super fresh, and have a variety of ingredients. I wouldn't normally rave about salads (ok, maybe a little bit) but I find that I crave these-- they're that good. read more

Totally understand mistakes happen we called and explained and asked if a driver was coming this way could we get what was missing from our salads. We didn't even ask for new salads. They said ok ( no apologies) I could live with that but they actually had the nerve to call us back and tell us the salads had the missing items on them. We explained they did not and they proceeded to argue with us. Why on earth would we call them and ask for the missing items we weren't even asking for new salads. Crazy !! The gentleman got argumentive and nasty on the phone. Never ever again Marco Polo !! You guys made a mistake and needed to own it. Not very smart in these times to piss off loyal customers.

Stopped by Marco Polo after having a drink at Firehouse 12 (next door). Looked like more of a take out place but seating area was well furnished, clean and nicer than other take out places. I had a chicken parm sandwich and my two companions had a small meat lovers pizza and a pepperoni calzone. We were starving but all enjoyed our food. My sandwich was on a hard roll with a side of potato chips...chicken was hot and sauce was great...melted mozz cheese and some parmesan cheese completed my meal. Pizza looked great and my friend enjoyed it and had half for leftovers. Same with the calzone...looked pretty well stuffed with cheese and pepperoni and made me want to go back and try one. Will hopefully go back after another night out for drinks. read more

This was our second time ordering from here, the first time was great, and we ordered the same exact thing. The food took an hour to arrive, and when it got here, it wasn't what we ordered. one meal, the buffalo crispy chicken salad, had no buffalo chicken; it was regular chicken instead. it was also cold, and missing dressing. We called, and after some debating with the employees, they delivered the buffalo chicken and dressing. That delivery only took about 15 minutes.

Do not order from this place the staff there take no responsibility or accountability they make mistakes and blame it on the manager that he cooked it so they assume because he cooked it, it came out excellent and the customer Is wrong.

The PoNH was good. The ricotta was a nice contrast to the sausage and red peppers. The Clam Casino was worth the journey by itself, however. It turns out clams on a pizza is a great idea. Large whole clams and bacon with cherry peppers? Damned right. I wasn't familiar with New Haven brand ("apizza" as I've now been told), but the char on the bottom from the wood-fired oven is crucial at holding some topping combinations to a higher echelon than others (where it deflates others): see the other-worldly good Clam Casino versus this-could-be-better-without Portrait of New Haven.

The dough is flavorful and clearly well-fermented. Sauce is applied with restraint, just enough to support the dough and cheese without overpowering them, and it delivers a clean, bright tomato flavor. Breaking My Meatballs was the standout. Homemade meatballs, herbed ricotta, cherry peppers, mozzarella, and that same balanced sauce. The cherry peppers bring a sharp vinegar tang that cuts perfectly through the richness of the ricotta and meatballs. Every bite hits a different note, and it all works together. Easily one of my favorites. The crust across the board was thin and tender with a delicate smoky char from the wood fire, exactly what you want from this style. Bottom line: Great spot. Excellent pizza. Super friendly staff

An okish first time visit. I wanted to try a new pizza place in New Haven for a birthday and chose…read morethis one. But the food didn't feel like a celebration, in my opinion. One 6 Three is an unusual name - it's a small and cozy spot with few tables and bar seating, set in a residential neighborhood. We tried the gluten free crust (available only in 12") American margherita pie and added mushrooms in half of it. The wood fired crust was well done, I really liked it. Lots of garlic, yum. However, the tomatoes on it were raw and that didn't feel very good. Also, there were no condiments offered on the side- like oregano- is that normal in a pizza place? Maybe I need to try more pizza places :)

8 Thousand Pizza

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.

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.

We've gotten everything from specials to a plain here and it all slaps. Joe is also a super friendly guy.

Now let me tell you...THE SAUCE. I dream about it. It's enough where one night my husband and I craved pizza and I said we had to drive to New Haven to see Joe and crush a pepperoni pizza. If they have the tomato pie? GET IT. The rare Kale white pie? A vegetarian's dream. Keep an eye on the Instagram for which pizzas are coming out and how many. I came in a different night after going out in New Haven with a group and we snagged the last pizza at about 9:30pm, only 2 hours after they began service. Joe is also just fantastic. He's friendly, a caring dad (the pizza is named after his three sons, and why you see three basils on each pizza), and he does this after he perfected the recipe during Covid and is now sharing it with the world. Crisp pepperonis (how I like them), addicting sauce, unique flavor combos, go see Joe. He knows what he's doing. Maybe a good thing I have to drive 45 min for this pizza because I'd otherwise be here every weekend. Definitely a pizza worth checking out!
