Visited on Christmas day early. And the pizza was very good. The service was cordial and d friendly. I will definitely go back cause it was of course, a rush day. read more

This seems to be the case of old reviews, maybe a previous owner, lowering the score. Classic strip mall pizzeria. The cooked to order pizza was delicious and prepared exactly as requested. The beer was very cold. Really what else is there? For this rural area, this could be five stars read more

The slices were good price, delicious and large. We had the Caesar salad, and that was also delicious with the bread that goes with it. Very friendly staff. read more

Margherita pizza has no sauce on it and a thick layer of cheese. It sucked. It's literally a white pizza with tomatoes and basil...not a margherita pizza. They also gave us wings without sauce when we ordered honey barbecue. When we called about it the owner was very rude and defensive about it saying "their margherita pizza doesn't have sauce on it" ??? and claiming that we ordered plain wings even though it said honey bbq on the slip they gave us. They didn't offer any refund. However the girl on the phone that took our order was very sweet and understanding!! If you want pizza or Italian food in Willimantic go to Tony's not here!!!! read more

New England Pizza & Restaurant - This is not a margherita pizza?????? - Pizza Near Me - North Windham, Connecticut

My wife and I never made it past the phone call when we wanted to order take out. Whatever answered the phone, it sounded like a huge inconvenience for us to want their business. So I said never mind, I will send my business elsewhere. When it's my money being spent, I want polite, professional, and courteous people. What this was, was completely disrespectful and rude. Go somewhere else to spend your hard earned money. I will order lesser quality food if the service and people are great. Guess I will never know how their food here tastes since they showed me they don't want my business. read more

Margherita pizza had an astronomical amount of cheese, didn't know cheddar cheese was on margherita. It also doesn't come with any sauce on it which is confusing because i've only ever had it with sauce. our wings also had no sauce on them when the slip that came with the food definitely specified the type of sauce we wanted. However, we loved the girl who answered the phone and took the order, she was splendid. I REPEAT NEVER ORDER THE MARGHERITA. read more

we were the only people sat down to eat. the two people working were very kind! i tried fried pickles for the first time here and they were amazing. the other food / pizza we got were also yum. plenty of booth seating and a bar! great setting for big parties. would come back! read more

Great food. A big portion of food for the money. The waitress was very nice and polite. We will be bake.

I have been going here for the last 2 years. I have eaten in and have had take out. I have never had a problem with take out or good service. Our favorite is the homemade chicken Alfredo. read more

Owner here is extremely rude to his employees. He yells at employees he trains. The back of the kitchen is nasty. There was green slime under the dough machine. I don't recommend. Go anywhere else. read more

The pizza had no sauce and was very bad tasting. Gave them a second chance, bought 2 grinders,mozzarella sticks, fried broccolis bites,which both appetizers came 4 each,the bill was 37 dollars and subway has more meat in their grinders then this place. Don't waiste your money. read more

If you go to New England Pizza and love Chicken Parmesan dinner .This is the place . And the galic cheese bread . So good ! read more

See all

Do not order a margherita pizza from this restaurant. It is essentially a white pizza with tomato slices and an excessive amount of cheddar cheese. Very disappointed, Illiano's is much better and only one parking lot over. Save your money. read more

Not very good,these are new owners,not sure they have a clue. The first time I ordered pizza,wasn't very good,I gave them one more try a few months later,ordered some grinders,subway would have been better and less expensive, so still waiting for something good in the area to open. read more

This place is absolute garbage now with the new owners. Used to be a gem but now it's just plain "ok" chain quality food.

Pizza is good . I've been a few times now but I have a place closer to my home I prefer. If the service was better then I would come here more read more

My family visited New England Pizza tonight, it was the worst experience. We ordered a pizza and an order of manicotti, 40 min later we had not see our food. Not once during that time did the waitress try to find out where the order was and did not come to our table. It turned out they forgot to make our food. You have one job. The hurried food came over, the pizza was undercooked and tasted terrible. The waitress knew we weren't happy and didn't even bothering to check on us. No offer to reduce our bill. We paid and left. Terrible experience. We will never return. The place is also dirty. If you visit, look at the ceiling, filthy. read more

I very often do my grocery shopping at the Wal-Mart right down the road from New England Pizza and had driven past it a number of times before I noticed it first. I got realily excited because I love the one in Vernon, so I figured its got to be the same owners. I did some googling and found that there were three places in the US called "New England Pizza & Restaurant" and all were in CT, so they must be the same owners right? It would be a little strange if there were three places with the same name in the same state that were unrelated, and none anywhere else in the US. Well I guess it was strange. When the pizza came out I could tell it wasn't the same owners as the one in Vernon. It was defintiely good pizza, in the same greek style, but just had a bit of a different taste. I would definitely return to this location, the food was a bit different than I expected going in, but it was still very good. Their pizza even reheated in the microwave well, which is always a plus. I did ask on the way out, and they said they do know the owners of the Vernon location, but there is infact no relation. read more

Great Pizza! Perfectly cooked! Highly recommend the New England Special! It was loaded with toppings, cheese was perfectly melted and most of all the entire crust was cooked to a nice crunchiness! read more

Slow service. Ridiculously slow. Food is just fine. Had a pizza. Crust was fine. Toppings were raw. No taste in the pizza. Guys get more staff. Paying took 30 mins. Can you imagine how long food took. If you have all time in the world...come to this restaurant. Garlic bread was good. Not worth the wait though read more

The pizza is absolutely top-notch (if you like a crispy, thick crust). They don't scrimp on the toppings, and everything is cooked perfectly every time. The sandwiches we've tried have also been very good, and even the Buffalo wings are tasty. House salad is an okay side, a totally ordinary plate of iceberg lettuce and cukes and green peppers. A palate cleanser. Bigger dinner salads and antipastos are also available, and assume are pretty good, based upon the quality of the other food offerings. The only place NEP&R falls short -- okay, two places -- is the service and the actual dining room. The dining area is wide but only a few tables deep, and the air-lock entrance way cuts the room in half. It can get very noisy, especially if you're seated near a table full of ESCU students, or a screaming kid whose parents don't seem to care (as on our last visit; when they couple left, we could hear people all over the restaurant saying "Whew! Finally!). There is a bar at one end of the dining room with a tv blaring crap. At times the staff seemed more interested on the celebrity profile show than on the diners waiting for attention. That said, they're really friendly. It's just that the don't really seem to be 100% on the ball on any of the times we've eaten in. It's frustrating when you can see the bar fifteen feet away, yet have to wait ten minutes for someone to pour a draft beer (which didn't even come filled to the top of the glass). And that house salad...how long can it take? Aren't these usually mostly pre-made, just toss a handful of lettuce on a plate with some veggies? We got our salad just moments before our pizza came out of the kitchen (and we know how long pizza takes). So, that stuff sounds negative. But really, this place has very good food! For that they earn four stars. One of the best pizzas in the area, if you like this style of pizza. If you like thin crust pizza, seek elsewhere. Highly recommended for take out. If this review was based only on the dining room experience, or the erratic service, it would be a iffy three stars. read more

the waitress was very ditsy & disrespectful. she did not really pay attention to the table. my dad told her we needed utensils & she gave a smart remark back. she took our order while continually interrupting us, & after 45 minutes we didn't have our food. we had to stare at her to get her attention. she was too busy talking non stop to someone at the bar. she brought out my parents pizza then ran off so the chef had to bring our the manicotti for myself. the pizza was terrible, & both my parents felt sick afterwards. she didn't check on us once, in reference to needing more drinks or asking how the food was. she brought us the check, & said "thought you'd want this". she didn't acknowledge the fact that none of us hate. she gave a half assed apology when she realized that we were unhappy. horrible tip for a horrible waitress. dont go unless you like wasting time & money!!! read more

My husband and I always get take out from here. Its always good food. Even though I only deal with the staff over the phone they're always pleasant to deal with. You can't beat the wait time. We've never had a bad meal ever. read more

Really good pizza. One of my top three pizza places in the area, the others being Tony's in Willimantic and Willington Pizza.

This is not just great pizza but great people. Support your local business. Theses guys deserve your patronage. Great food at fair prices and nice people. What more can you ask! read more

Great food and great service. We get take out every week or so and once they had run out of chowder and were only able to give me a small bowl. The next week, they remembered me and gave me a large bowl free. Nice touch. read more

The food here is fantastic; hot, fresh, tasty, and a nice variety to select from. Oh, so good, and affordable! The staff and owners are very friendly. The decor is rustic, but the food and service are so good that the decor doesn't matter. Don't miss the opportunity for lunch or a casual dinner here! read more

Wasn't impressed at all. The food was not fresh, I had fried calamari and it was rubbery and was mostly batter. There were more fingerprints on the plate than food. I will not be going back there, I'll be going to Z-Best Pizza down the road in Chaplain. The server was very pleasant and friendly though. read more

My boyfriend and I stopped at New England Pizza because we were at the nearby Wyndham airport, and fully enjoyed a late lunch of sandwiches and a salad (no pizza). The service was friendly and prompt, the food was straightforward and tasty, and the ambiance was casual and relaxed. I'd stop in again. read more

Let's start off by saying that I love food. Whilst I may not be a large fellow; I do know the difference between top notch food and sheer backroom rubbish. New England Pizza - Upon entering; you're enveloped it a Family Style, Italian "atmosphere" that really welcomes you. The restaurant is very clean and well organized. The tables are spaced apart just right and the overall comfort is top notch. The owners (to whom also were cooking) are very clean and phenomenally well maintained. The waitress that I had (Mary) was just as flawless. I was greeted in an incredibly timely manner. She was very pleasant and asked me for my beverage of choice straight away. What took me back was the fact that a patron had walked in to whom was using crutches. Mary had greeted her with a smile and helped her to a seat. The same customer then asked for Mary's opinion as to what SHE thinks was the best food that they had. Mary quickly replied with "Chicken Marsala". The customer quickly said "sure; that sounds great" and the order was taken without pause. Now: I've been to many a restaurant and have asked the same question myself and, well; 90% of the time I was told, "Here's the menu". To be honest; Mary was one of the single best waitress' I've ever had in my life. I had ordered a Bacon Cheeseburger Sandwich. It came standard cooked medium (although Mary had asked if I'd like it differently), with Cole Slaw and Fries. No more than 10 minutes had passed (they were a bit steady and she was the only waitress at the time) and my food was right at my table. Absolutely everything was fresh - from the hamburg; to the oil that had cooked my fries. The portions are quite hearty and the quality is top notch. The entire dish had that "Homemade" quality and taste that's truly hard to get nowadays. Folks; give this place a shot. I've been here on many occasions and I've NEVER been let down. The price is amazing, the staff is extraordinary, and the food is even better! read more

My three kids and I go out for pizza and fries every Friday night. We've been to pizza joints all over the quiet corner. New England Pizza is the place we always go back to again and again. This is our favorite. The pizza and fries are great, but it's more than that. The restaurant has a very relaxed feel and the service is always great. read more

Excellent pizza. Very consistent. Reasonably priced. There is a reason this place has survived other restaurants that have come and gone in the area. Great to eat in or take out. You won't be disappointed. read more

Giant grinders are a great value. Problems with this place? Orders are never quite ready when they say they are. Takes an extra 10-20 minutes (not so) reliably. Also would recommend keeping Faux[Fox] News off the bar TV. read more

Hidden gem! People in the Eastern Connecticut don't realize how spoiled they are to have so many good pizzerias in the area. New England pizza excels at crust and especially toppings, which are always fresh and cut to perfection. The atmosphere caters to the everyman working class person. The interior is simple but clean, and the oven in the back has probably been there since the Carter administration. There is nothing pretentious about this place whatsoever, unlike Willington Pizza down the road (also very good). read more

This is the best pizza in town! We enjoy a weekly trip there, everyone is very friendly and the service is great!

The waitress was hustling. Though the kitchen made a mistake on my pizza it was excellent. Crust was done to perfection

Great food, family owned. Menu has a selection, and the most important a full bar. Billy is a great waiter, as is his brother Chris. Both takeout and eating in are always a pleasant experience. read more
