1st time here, I received a recommendation to go here, so I was excited. Smaller than I was thinking. Another restaurant that has done away with servers, financially i guess i understand but they had a minimum of 3 employees that did nothing but stand behind the counter twiddling their thumbs, makes zero sense. We sat down and figured our order and had to get up to go to the counter to order, not why I like eating out. We ordered sweet chili wings and a pizza with red sauce, ricotta, mozz, olive oil and mikes hot sauce. The wings were ok, not fried like I expect when I order wings, the sauce was outstanding, lots of carrots for dipping, and yummy ranch dressing for dipping. The pizza crust was soft but due to the pizza only available in 12", not totally sloppy. The toppings were fresh, sweet and yummy, but overall, less than very good. If you like the food, I totally recommend ordering take out or delivery. I don't like this direction with restaurants and can not recommend. I'm confused, what happened to customer first? It was like they expected us to be grateful that they allowed us to come and dine in.
Very good Neapolitan pizza, crust is not too thick. I like the concept of this tavern style restaurant. Ingredients are fresh as they look very busy.
The food is delicious. Brick oven fired pizza. The prices are a little high, but the quality is pretty good. Service is always quick and food comes out quickly.
As always an excellent pizza . Have never eaten in the restaurant . Always have gotten take out . Very polite and respectful young people working here . I got the Jonnie pizza was amazing . Highly recommend
Oct 2023 - Another great Monday with two five dollar Margherita pizzas each with an extra ingredient: Prosciutto and sausage.

May 2023 - We've tried to get to their $5. Margherita pizza Mondays for a long time and finally did. We did an add-on to both. One sausage. One pancetta. Both sublime. If our arms were twisted, we'd pick the sausage

April 2023 - Regrettable we have not been here in this much time. We were craving a fine pizza returning to CT and had to try the proscuitto and clam again along with the Italian wings. Perfection. As I wrote in earlier reviews, the end product of the dough baked at high temps in their custom oven is divine.

Happy to return Friday with temperatures warm for mid-March in New England. Customers were already choosing to sit outside and the place was packed. Because it was after 4:00, we had to try the Grandma Pie. We chose three toppings: sweet Italian sausage, clams and porcini mushrooms. Sicilian style in terms of thickness, it's surprisingly light and airy for its appearance and depth but still has a nice texture with crunch. It's an amazing pizza to behold and savor. A second order of their Italian wings was everything we remembered. I noticed many people ordered salads that came with crusty bread so they must be good, too.

Pizza is consistently featured in my reviews and I have to agree with Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, when he declared on his "One Bite Pizza Reviews" YouTube channel, Connecticut has the best pizza. His only inaccuracy in this statement was confining the best pizza to New Haven. Outstanding pizza can be found throughout the state, from small towns to large cities, North, South, East and West. My top ten list doesn't even include New Haven, but food preferences are always personal.
Which brings me to Pizzeria Marzano. Incredible. Unlike Portnoy, I hesitate to try new pizza places, because I have enough favorites already that deliver every time. But my partner and I were out and needed to eat. Not in the mood for other cuisine, I mentioned this restaurant. He said, "let's go."
There is just no way I can't give Pizzeria Marzano five stars, though I wrestled with this rating having only eaten here once, no table service, no full bar or pasta dinners. You order at the counter and they bring your food after you've chosen where to sit (large dining space/high ceilings industrial style), they have a decent wine list, a few on tap, and excellent local beer menu all on tap, and are basically a pizza only restaurant. Who cares? Their food is exceptional.
The Italian wings (garlic, herbs, parmesan) are to die for, and our Clam & Prosciutto pizza was amazing. The brick wood-fired oven they had built in Southern Italy, (check out their website 'about' page) fires up to 800 degrees. Tiling was done by local Torrington craftsmen. This creation made both the wings and the pizza masterful.
The wings have intense flavor, the crisp on the lightly charred skin is sheer perfection and the traditional blue cheese or ranch dressing with carrot sticks is not needed here. I passed on both. The pizza actually has baby clams in the shell, not the usual minced canned clams. A fresh ball of mozzarella centered in the pizza with a leaf of basil is a fine garnish. These guys are serious.
They do offer seven salads, nine starters, and six or seven paninis or wraps. After 4 PM they offer a Roman style pizza "Grandma Pie" that the Chef actually went to Rome to learn how to make traditionally and perfectly. We can't wait to try it among many other things.
There is a large outdoor seating area in seasonal months, a tented-in outdoor room also throughout most of the year, multiple reserved parking spaces for curbside pickup, and when purchasing a glass of wine, you have the option of buying a poker chip that will give you a second glass for five cents! They also carry a variety of non and low alcohol beverage labels such as Boylan Bottling Co. and Truly. Tuesday's offer 20% off on take-out orders. Mondays have $5. Margherita pizzas from 11:30-4:00.
Edit: I reached out and they never bothered to respond// Salad is great but it gets smaller and smaller everytime… unless you order a larger size in which case you get the same size. I love their ceasar salad and order it for takeout frequently, but the size is always smaller and when I ordered a larger salad I got the same size as the previous salad was. Its literally a scam. I’d understand if it was an inflation thing but it isn’t. This happened multiple times within a 3 week span RECENTLY. I love the food but its really concerning that they’re taking advantage of customers this way and makes me not want to support them again.
Neapolitan pizza that reaches perfection. Slightly crispy exterior dough with a soft, pillowy interior texture. The toppings compliment the delicious crust - they don’t overpower it - the Margherita is simple
Heaven. Great wings - had the Italian herb, as well as the Kale Cesar - with homemade dressing that makes it! Stop on by - you’ll be glad you did
First time here and we had a great experience. The staff was very welcoming and cordial. We are a family of 6 and ordered 4 pizzas. All 4 pizzas were at the table in less than 5 minutes! It was amazing!!! We didn’t have to wait long at all. They were all delicious but we like the Jonni the best. We will definitely be back, thanks for a great meal!

This review is LONG over due. I absolutely love this establishment. I have been coming here since they opened & the food is great. I am from Thailand...so I can tell good Thai food when I see it...or taste it in this case. The owner gave such a gener
Clean, cozy, authentic Greek food served by friendly, upbeat staff. Loved the Greek music, or more likely a streaming Greek radio station, playing at just the right volume in the background. We went at 2:30 on a Friday so there were maybe three other
Batchy is catchy! (My way if saying this place has my future business)
It's a big black truck, so we were not sure if they were a solid location but they seem to always be there - and from what we tasted they have nothing but good coffee.

I absolutely love this place. The food is delicious my favorite is the chicken soup. The customer service is two thumbs up. Extremely friendly and very clean as well. Definitely the best authentic Mexican restaurant in Torrington. ðððð
Homey, on the small size, welcoming, breakfast (short lunch) restaurant. Family business. Great service. I had the sausage gravy on biscuits with lightly scrambled eggs and the homemade corned beef hash. The gravy had lots of sausage and the eggs wer

Ahh, good old Dairy Queen! I have always thought that their soft serve is the richest and most pleasing. The Torrington stand never disappoints. Fast service at the walk-up window right off the sidewalk. Easy to park in their parking lot. There are n
