We came here because we used to live here 12 years ago. We ordered and it took 40 minutes just to get 2 small pizzas and wings. There were only 3 parties left in the rester aunt by the time they gave us our food. Another kind family gave us some of their pizza because their order was messed up so they had an extra pizza. I ordered a pizza with olives and mushroom. I got onions and mushrooms. They also are out of all drinks except root beer. The service was really bad but the food was incredible

Held my daughter’s 7th birthday here and they had a blast! The kids did a build your own pizza tray and they loved it. They also had fun board and arcade games for them to play while they were waiting for their pizzas to cook. $20 per child for each build your own pizza (drinks are not included which kinda stunk) but just prepare for that extra cost. The new manager there was great, very helpful. Would definitely do it again or recommend to a friend!

You can’t say you know New Haven pizza without trying Eli’s. It rivals Frank Pepe’s in flavor, texture, and consistently high quality pizza while having none of the line or wait time for a great meal. They also have generous slices to-go of various specialty pies. We are massive fans of the standard cheese though, which they cook to perfection every time. The manager Matt, in particular, does an excellent job, and remembers your name and what you particularly like even during the Wednesday buy-one-pizza-get-one-free rush. He is friendly and professional and, in the one time there was a bit of inconsistency with sauce, noted our feedback and followed up when we next went in, even though we ourselves had since forgotten about it. The atmosphere is always laid back and family friendly, and the staff are respectful. The only real issue to note is parking — there are less than ten spots in the back, which can get a bit congested at certain times, but that is, in my estimation, a trivial concern when you consider how great their pizza is, every time. Strong contender for the best pizza in New Haven.

The pizza was nice…the cheese seems to be really high quality. We also had a Caesar salad, which was a great start. It is very noisy with kids playing table hockey, etc. Don’t go here if you expect to have a quality conversation. Just go for the pizza and vibes.

My small white fresh tomato eggplant pizza was the worse pizza I’ve ever had. The eggplant looked and tasted like pieces of brown paper bags! There was hardly any cheese on it and even with sliced tomatoes on it, it was dry. This pizza was $17 and was not eatable!! Lesson learned!!

I got there right near closing time, and ordered the meatball parmigiana sandwich. It was pretty good. The restaurant is very clean and has a cool aesthetic. The meatballs had some big chunks of garlic in it, and one of the meatballs was crunchy, like it had been freezer burned and then cooked.

Super casual with delicious food and treats. Games to play. Local beers to choose from and a take away dinner option. We had pizzas and pastas. For dessert we tried their home made cookies and cheesecake.

I am not from Connecticut and as such I will never give five stars for it’s pizza but honestly there are much better pizza places than this place and to add insult to injury the price was sky high. The calamari smelled but was passable. Literally the service was CT brisk and cold but that seems to be the norm for this area. Literally you can save money and have better pizza anywhere else. It looks very nice so if you are trying to impress a date then this might be worth it to you.

Delicious pizza worth the wait. Could use something under the pizza to catch the delicious oil. We had a large angry chicken and a large mozerella with Alfredo sauce and basil. Cannot wait to get another pizza.

Stuffed bread!! Never had it until I went to Eli’s and went with the chicken parm. Unreal marinara sauce…almost drinkable. The bread was rich and cheesy and perfect. Part sandwich/part calzone delish. I’ll be back
