In 1935, a post-Prohibition tavern named Colony Grill opened in an Irish immigrant neighborhood in Stamford, Connecticut. Since then, Colony has become famous for what is now its only menu offering:a one-of-a-kind, thin-crust pizza that is best served with the signature hot oil topping.

We’ve been going to colony for nearly a decade since I first went to college in the area. The pizza is always consistently good, and the staff does a great job of bringing everything out quickly. No frills, just great food! It’s usually pretty unchanged here, but on this visit we did try their new buffalo chicken special and drinks, and we were definitely impressed. Always makes for a great walk down memory lane and I can’t wait for many more visits!

Took out a bunch of pizzas last night (Saturday night). Overall, experience was great. I’m allergic to dairy and my friend is gluten free so we haven’t had pizza in soooo long and we were so glad to see they could accommodate our needs! It was a typical loud, busy Saturday. Food was great and held up in the car to be fantastic when we ate it. Only complaint was the toppings seemed to be more on certain slices but it was still delicious!

Amazing pizza at Colony Grill! Thin and crispy crust, perfect sauce, and flavors that keep you coming back for more. Casual vibe, quick service, and the famous hot oil pizza is a must-try. Simple place, but easily the best pizza in Fairfield!

Consistently quality pizza with a thin crust and loads of flavor. Not apizza (New Haven), but closer to a cracker crust without the brunt edges/pockets of the New Haven style. Everything from a cheese to a hot oil to a pepperoni delivers on flavor. It’s well rationed, packed with flavor, and not heavy. Crispy and not floppy, this pizza is absolutely worth a stop. The hot oil is the specialty, but any pizza you pick will deliver.
Crowded around dinner time and can get loud (bar type environment) but generally there is always a table without a wait. Service is friendly and prompt. A no frills place with a simple menu that delivers.

A great family friendly restaurant serving some of the best Pizzas in Fairfield. We stumbled upon this restaurant and delighted to report it is fantastic. The Pizzas are delicious, thin crust, with the best toppings, they arrive extra hot and bubbly with a wonderful char around the edges. We had Blue Moon beers with ours (our favorite tipple) but there is a great selection of beers and wines plus they have a lovely bar area as well. Definitely worth a visit.

Wow! What a great experience. The pizza was delish!!! But nothing. And I mean nothing. Compared to the amazing service from our server Amelia. She was excellent. Give her a gigantic raise!

Colony Grill is a pizza mecca! Their thin-crust pizza is absolutely top notch. It’s crispy, flavorful, and made to perfection. While they only offer three types (Margherita, Breakfast, and Salad), each one is unique and delicious in its own way. A standout is they do offer many available pizza toppings to make them your own. Sometimes less is more, and they’ve definitely nailed that approach!
The atmosphere was lively and a little loud to where it was hard to have a conversation. Perfect for a casual night out with friends.
Highly recommend checking it out if you love good pizza, great beer, and a fun vibe. We will be back!
