There are many options for pizza in btv. I believe this is the best pizza in town. The cheese pizza is garlic, cheese, herb balance--not pretentious, just really good. The thick crust sausage and pepperoni is awesome. The crust is crunchy cheese happiness and the price is on point. read more

I'e never been but I've ordered remotely for my son and his fellow construction team. The guys loved the pies and the wings! It was a hit, and the service was great in accommodating a remote request! Thanks Pizza44 Team - Great product and service! read more

I'm not often a fan of pizza but Pizza44 has converted me. Absolutely fantastic. Plenty of additional fare: paninis, salads, apps. Easy, laid back setting and great craft beer selection. read more

Ordered a pizza online and it told me to come pick it up in 1.5 hrs which is pretty ridiculous for a large margherita pizza. I was able to call and cancel my order through the phone which was cool read more

Best pizza is BTV. I lived in NYC. Would challenge all but 1 pizza parlor in whole city to beat Pizza 44. Oh, and the salads are to die for. read more

Best thing I can say is: the crust is good. Ordered the Brussels Pizza and the Maple Pizza, both sounded flavorful but wound up very bland. The arugula and apple on the Maple Pizza were added after the oven and a seemingly flavorful pie was left lack luster. In addition to the food, the restaurant style is too new-age for my traditional taste. They have you order at the counter and then find a table Hunger Games style as you wait for people to leave and creep over slowly to poach their desired spot. If you want another drink be sure to call "fives" as you must go up to the counter to order another. Over priced for the experience. read more

oh my gosh, this place is so so good. The appetizers were phenomenal, great staff and a nice environment, please try this place out it's amazing. 5 stars !! read more

Being Italian American and eating the famous Pepe's and Sally's on Wooster St in New Haven, CT while growing up, know pizza and this is the best in the Burlington area! You'll love it! read more

Pizza 44 - What a delicious combo - Brussels sprouts, spec and red onion ! - Pizza Near Me - Burlington, Vermont

See all

We got two things, and both were high quality: mushroom pesto pizza ("Go Ask Alice"), and meatballs. These mushrooms are not from a can - they are delicioius! The meatballs are fabulous, and though listed as an app/starter/whatever, come with bread and could make a nice little meal in themselves - I think there were four or five. The pizza crust is extremely thin and crunchy; but there was another style available, deep dish or thick crust, I forget which. Ample a la carte toppings let you design your own. The space is big yet seems like it ought to fit a lot more seating. There are a few taps; but if you want to take advantage of Queen City's full roster, you can simply have your pizza in the adjoining bar (but can't bring their beers into the pizzeria). We spent about $28 on a large pizza and the meatballs, no drinks, before tip. read more

First visit, could be last. The experience is as important as the quality of food. Pizza 44 needs to staff better or change their method. We waited in line for more than 20 mins just to place an order. Not only did they staff with only one cashier but she had to manage all the drinks, explain the menu, etc. There was no help to offload some of the activities. We had wings, salad and pizza. The pork belly was 100% fat; no sign of meat. The pizza was okay. As many comments state the toppings were light. Also the crust could have been cooked a few mins longer. In the end, pizza, salad, 6 wings and two alcoholic drinks was $66. Not a cheap pizza night out. Overall, not a destination to rush back to. read more

I think that this is my favorite pizza in town right now, above Folino's and Pizza Verita (but both totally great by the way). The pizza is delicious and well priced, staff totally nice, and the buildout is exceptional. Looking forward to going back. read more

Overall a pretty good pizza addition to Burlington! Nice casual atmosphere. I tried the barbecue chicken and the mushroom pesto one. Mushroom pesto was super good. Barbecue chicken had just a little bit too much barbecue sauce for me, some pieces were really soaked. The crust is fine, nothing spectacular. I would come again though! read more

Went to pizza44 and ordered a pizza, a beer and garlic bites, when asked for my ID I presented my legal ID stating that I am of age to consume alcohol. However, the man at the register needed manager approval, which is fine, I'm young and understand the additional security. However the manager still refused to serve me. After challenging this and requesting a call be made to confirm my age and ID, the manager continued to refuse me. Jokes on him because I saved $5! Food was average, pizza was cold by the end of our meal. Overall, I will NOT be returning. read more

Great service great spot great food. All around great experience!!! Would recommend. Fast service had pizza and wings absolutely scrumptious. read more

Steve at Pizza 44 is a master of the pie. He meticulously ladles and spreads the sauce - a work of art. As I sit at the counter, I witness him explaining in detail to kitchen staff on how to cut the mozzarella to a perfectly proportioned slice. This food is delicious. Queen City Brewery is on tap (and next door) so the libations are top notch as well. Five. Freaking. Stars. read more

Pizza 44 - Pizza Near Me - Burlington, Vermont

I'm from the tri-state area originally. So when they opened and offered thin-crust pizza --- I was thrilled. The front of the house was NEVER great. Cold pizza one time, charged double the second and the third time we waited 30 minutes for a pie and the place was practically empty. The last time we ordered only a takeout prosciutto pizza. I have no idea what kind of mystery meat they used, but it was definitely not prosciutto. I think I'm done! read more

Get what you pay for. It's not cheap, but it's worth the modest price. Even a simple margarita pizza is flavorful and the crust is delicious. (The arugula pizza is also excellent!). Generally the staff is very pleasant as well, which is a bonus. Plus the option to walk your pizza out back to Queen City for an excellent beer. Is there anything better than excellent pizza and cold beer? read more

Walked in and took a seat at the pizza bar. It wasn't closing time, wasn't busy, people who worked there were just standing around except for the occasional pizza get thrown in the (not very traditional) "wood-fired oven." The prep area where all of the toppings are kept was a disgusting mess, cross contamination of dairy and meat toppings happening across the board working their way into the veggies and sauce. So by this point, I had already decided I didn't want to eat there and started looking on my phone for somewhere else. Sat there literally 20 minutes and not a single person there ever said a word. Terrible service, mediocre pizza/ oven, disgusting prep space. I won't be going back. read more

Very good pizza. Fresh, and perfect crust-to-topping ratio! Best homemade crushed tomato (marinara) sauce I've ever had!

Best pizza in Burlington, and I've tried all the pizza of comparable price. The best part is it's the cheapest too. Only 14 and change for a large pie if I'm not mistaken. The pizza is tasty with a distinctive flavor to it which beats out the downtown grease spots easily. The atmosphere is great, too. The fried dough desert is totally bomb. I only wish this place didn't open right after I moved across town and out of the south end. read more

If I could give a zero star review I would. Firstly, I would like to say, the pizza is good and the caesar salad I had was delicious. What completely ruined it for me was the desert and the response I received when I asked about it. The desert in question was the "Country Fair Fried Dough" - Fried dough topped with house made vanilla ice cream and Vermont maple glaze. Sounds like heaven. When we received it, it was some pizza dough balls in a plastic container, no ice cream, and a scant amount of maple syrup. Last time I checked syrup doesn't constitute a glaze.... I called and said that they had forgotten to include the ice cream and the glaze. The person who answered said he packed the maple syrup, it was in there and that the dessert no longer comes with ice cream. I replied that 6 dollars was steep for some dough balls and a an ounce of maple syrup. His response? "well this is Burlington after all...." I told him that if the dessert is no longer as advertised, they should remove it from the website or update. He said it wasn't his job but he'd pass it along. very dismissive. Bottom line, if someone is ordering something you know doesn't exist, say something. If they are upset that they were charged for something they didn't want, don't catch some bougie attitude, fix it. You're not that special, and neither is your pizza. read more

Let's bring the reviews of Pizza 44 down to earth, shall we? We were there Friday, September 14th, and, our experience was horrendous! We ordered "Tim's pepperoni with extra sauce and a soft drink--forgetting to also order the "local greens." So, I went back to the register one minute later and ordered the salad. I requested that the salad be brought out to be consumed while we waited for the pizza, but, I was told that food could only be brought out in the sequence it appeared via the cash register. The place was a zoo with a lot of people with unhappy faces sitting in the booths awaiting the delivery of their pizza. I overheard someone say they were waiting upwards to one hour for their pizza. I also heard someone at the register say they were suspending taking take out orders because they were so swamped and couldn't handle the in restaurant orders. We waited a good 35-40 minutes for our pizza. During that time, I asked three different waitresses if they could PLEASE bring out the salad which had three components in it--tomatoes, cucumbers, and (was that?) arugula. It would take me---I don't have a degree from a culinary school--15 seconds to make the salad. Each said, "I'll check on it." Nothing doing...the salad came out AFTER the pizza arrived. So, you're saying: "they just opened, there are always glitches, give them a break." Ok, then, let's move on to the food...First, the salad...a bowl full of limp leaves with a boring, pretty unremarkable balsamic dressing. I love balsamic vinaigrette dressings...not this one. Enough said. Now, the main event, the pizza. Kudos to the establishment for the generous mountain of pepperoni on Tim's pizza. Trouble is, I didn't come to eat a mountain, or, a mountain of pepperoni, for that matter. "Have a little pizza with your pepperoni...." All you could taste was pepperoni. As for the "hand crushed sauce," that I asked for "extra," virtually none under the cheese and whatever was there was tasteless. The cheese was good, but, the crust was limp from the center to half way to the crust. What do you expect with the grease from all that pepperoni pooling in the center?! Finally the drink...We opted for "root beer" at the self serve machine. I'm not sure of the brand, but, that ain't root beer. It has a distinct vanilla taste much more reminiscent of cream soda. Now, I'm a native Vermonter, and, I know how the non-GMO and Birkenstock crowd loves to exult and support native restaurants that use locally sourced products. I get it, and, I'm right there with you! I know that my experience is based on one visit, one pie. But, I can't get on board with this one. For the person who described the space as "chic," all I can say is: try to get out a little more... I've been to NYC many times. I've enjoyed pizza at Artichoke, Una Pizzeria Nepolitano, Grimaldi's, and Lombardi's. Those are "oh my gawd" pizzerias, not this. For those who think me a pizza snob, let me give you some perspective...although the crust and cheese are quite awful, I think the sauce at Domino's is ten times more flavorful than the "hand crushed" variety at Pizza 44. To those repulsed by such a statement I say: come back and talk to me when Pizza 44 has 10,000 restaurants worldwide. Keep in mind, I am not advocating for Domino's!! And, for what it's worth, just as an FYI, Burlington was where the third Domino's store in the country was opened and the first one outside of Michigan. So, where to get a good pizza in Burlington? I used to be a Leonardo's fan, but, since it opened, Folino's is the choice, hands down. It's a little more expensive, and, they charge a buck for extra sauce--it needs it--but, it's worth it. Pizza 44...no need to go back. read more

Just go here. The ambiance is adorable and chic (whoever designed it...can you help me decorate my place?), the cashier was beyond friendly, and the pizza. Oh my GAWD the pizza. I got the tomato pie with arugula, balsamic glaze, cherry tomatoes, and homemade ricotta. The crust was slightly overcooked (how pizza crusts should be!) and very flavorful. It's not an exaggeration that I was reluctant to share with my husband. He got the BBQ pizza and the bite I had was just delightful. Finally! The South End has a pizza place and it is damn good. Prices are fair; we ended up actually taking most of it home so now we have enough for dinner. I already am looking forward to going back! read more

Roast veggie panini is the bomb! ...and what a nice place to sit for a while. This place is great.

Delicious pizza, nice atmosphere, quick service. We recently ate here with our family of four and had a great experience. Kid friendly.

Great pizza, great beer selection, great location. I'd recommend a large tim's pepperoni. You won't leave disappointed.

We've been twice: once sit down, the other take out. Fantastic food and service. Great pizza and apps. The cast iron Quattro Formagio Pizza is insanely good. Garlic Bites, Wings, and the roasted veggies with hummus were all excellent. The kids devoured the pepperoni pizza. Fresh and delicious - made everyone happy! read more

Over priced, over rated, poorly run. We ordered a pizza and an appetizer. No one bothered to tell us before we ordered that they were short staffed and that it would take a long time to fill our order. If they had we'd have gone somewhere else. Instead they just took our $ like good little drones. After 45 minutes of waiting patiently we asked about our order. We were told it would be a while longer. We asked if at least our appetizer was ready. Turns out it was and it was sitting there getting ice cold while we went hungry. They didn't even bother to at least let us know we could start in that while we waited. Not good customer service. We asked for our $ back and were told they couldn't do that. After an hour and 15 minutes of waiting we finally got our pizza. It was most definitely not worth the wait. In fact it's probably one of the most mediocre pizzas I've ever had despite our being very hungry but by then it was too late for us to go someplace else. We like Queen City Brewery a lot but in the future we're going to get take out someplace, any place, other than Pizza 44. It really should be called Pizza 86.... read more

Best pizza in Burlington! There are so many places to eat pizza, but Pizza 44 is by far the best around. The wood fired pizza with fresh ingredients and homemade sauce is just awesome. The friendly staff welcome you by your first name which creates a nice touch for a neighborhood restaurant. We have so many favorites, the brussel caesar salad, maple wings, the mickster and our all time favorite a deep dish pizza cooked to perfection. Thanks for creating a positive dinning experience and the best pizza in Burlington! read more

This was my first time here. On the plus side, the pizza was very good. On the negative side, it took nearly 45 minutes from ordering to get it. Hope that's not typical. read more

Ordered pizza to be delivered to Queen City next door (this is routine for them , as they are next door). 40 mins later I Went to check and was brushed off. They said they tried to deliver the pizza but that I wasnt there. But the truth is I was right there, waiting for their pizza. They did not call or text about not being able to deliver the pizza. As far as I know they would just have forgotten about it. When I confronted them about this, they said, 'yeah, we were busy'. This place should improve their customer service and reliability. read more

This was my first time trying Pizza 44. Since I'm gluten sensitive, I ordered a make your own option with GF crust (an extra $4), pesto, garlic oil, black olives, mushrooms, and a mix of red peppers. It was really, really good! Sometimes GF can be weird, but I couldn't tell it was. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because the cashier did not look like she wanted to be there and was somewhat dismissive and curt when we asked questions about items on the menu. Hire a friendlier cashier and we will be back! read more

Went in with two friends for some quick pizza... there was nothing quick about it. Food was on a hour wait... so we put in a food order anyway. I ordered a dozen wings and that's where the problems started. They misheard me I guess and put me down for 6 wings only. My friend got 6 wings as well. So we sat down and waited what felt like hours until some food started coming out. And it was like a pizza came out then ten minutes later another plate and then another ten minutes and my friends wings came out. So I waited and waited another 20 MINUTES. Until I asked one of the staff members what was going on. They said that they already brought the wings to our table and I told them that we had two orders that were supposed to come to the table. So he grabbed a manager who began arguing with me and basically telling me I was lying and that they already brought us our wings. I literally had to open my bank statements and show him the charge and he still didn't believe me. They finally brought it out after another 15-20 minutes and basically threw the plate at me. WORST SERVICE AND EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD. For them to raise their voice with me and basically call me a liar. I truly hope that they haven't done this to someone else. Will never go again and will suggest others not go as well. read more

Great atmosphere for family and friends. Very open space and very accommodating to needs of their customers! Amazing food!

We were excited to try this new joint in our neighborhood! We were disappointed. The atmosphere is great, clean with trendy decorations and comfortable seating. The folks who greeted us and took our order were friendly and engaging. This is where the excitement faded. One of the pizzas we ordered was supposed to come topped with tomatoes, basil, ricotta and balsamic..:came without basil and balsamic. Took a lot to get attention of the server who took the pizza away and returned it with balsamic and with arugula instead of basil. No one came to ask us how things were. Staff were standing around socializing. No one thanked us for coming. The pizza was mediocre. We are willing to try again once they have been open a bit longer, but would like to be treated like our patronage is important. read more

This is really more of a warning for other people with annoying diet restrictions than a bad review because the service was friendly, the place is nicely decorated, it's in a great spot, and all my friends who ordered normal pizzas thought they were tasty. That said, there is a gluten-free crust on the menu that is a $4 up charge. And that makes total sense! Gluten-free ingredients are more expensive. What doesn't make sense is that the menu says nothing about the fact that the gluten-free crust is ridiculously smaller than all the other pizzas. You can order the Mickster, a pizza with pepperoni, sausage, and ricotta, for $19 and it's at least 16". I didn't get an itemized receipt at the counter, but I was told the glass of wine I ordered was $8 which means the sausage and pepperoni pizza I ordered (sans ricotta!) to split with my other dietary restricted buddy was $22. When it came to the table we were all surprised to see that it fit in a salad plate. It was maybe 8 inches. Like personal pan pizza size for all you Pizza Hut fans out there. For $22! Everyone at the table thought it must have been a mistake and that the bill must be wrong, but according to the super nice woman at the counter, the bill was, in fact, correct. I get needing to charge extra for specialty ingredients, but that is a huge up charge. $22 for a pizza that could maybe feed a 10 year old, and then only if they had already had a snack before dinner. Also, the gluten free crust was tortilla thin, gluey, and kind of a bummer. Take it off the menu if you have to charge that much for something that tiny and bad! Don't tempt the gluten-free people into a pizza place to begin with! We shouldn't be there anyway! Honestly though, if you have a gluten allergy or intolerance, and want to be able to hang out with your pizza loving friends (because who doesn't like pizza?), I would not recommend Pizza 44. Go to American Flatbread, their gluten-free crust is awesome. read more

The brussel caesar salad was delicious but the other four dishes we got were lacking. We shared a roasted vegetables that featured baba ghanoush on the menu but was served with hummus. Had we known it was coming with hummus, we wouldn't have ordered it. When we asked for a correction, we were told the menus were new and they didn't have any baba ghanoush. We ordered a deep dish pizza that was missing most of the sauce, half the cheese and had the anchovies shoved onto two slices versus put on the whole pie. When we shared the lack of flavor/cheese, the server suggested we add salt and pepper and told us next time to order a side of marinara. I was incredibly surprised no one offered us any solutions - we essentially got two dishes that didn't match the descriptions on the menu and the staff simply shrugged it off. We also ordered garlic knots and meatballs to go - neither of which were very good. The meatballs were very small and heavily spiced and the garlic knots were also quite small and surprisingly chewy. The regular pizza, salads and sandwiches seem the way to to go. We spoke to diners who were enjoying their meal so perhaps we selected the wrong items. read more

We ate here last night while visiting Vermont and we enjoyed our pizza! I was told the crust was vegan (hopefully the man on the phone was correct!) so I was able to order a pizza without cheese. The pizza was super yummy. If you've eaten at American Flatbread, I'd say the pizza is similar, but this crust was a little thicker. They are located next to a brewery and had decent local beer selection from other places as well. The restaurant wasn't too crowded (Saturday night in the winter) so we were able to immediately find a seat, and the food came quickly, too! The seating was kind of odd, though. Only a few booth tables and one regular table. Also one long table with bar stools and a few tables with couches (seemed a bit uncomfortable). I would just keep this in mind if you're dining with older folks or anyone who needs a comfy seat while eating. Overall I'd definitely recommend checking this place out if you're looking for pizza in Burlington! read more
