Tonino's Pizzeria,

3450 Whitney Ave, Hamden, CT 06518, United States

"I've been here twice so far to get a slice of pizza instead of a whole pie and both times I've been very satisfied with the quality. Service was kind and quick. I haven't tried the subs or anything else on the menu so all I can vouch for is the pizza. No other pizza shop in my experience has perfected a Brooklyn/NY style pie other than this place. The dough retains a great crunch even after being reheated. The buffalo chicken is a good balance of just enough spice and yummy flavor. The plain cheese also has a great taste, almost like a nostalgic cafeteria pizza but doesn't have a strange taste to it. The close vicinity to a campus makes this a great stop for students and pizza lovers alike."

"Incredible pizza! This pizza is the best, word. Amazing service too, tonino was very polite, and funny too!"

"Just had my first slices of pizza at Tonino’s… DELICIOUS! Some of the best Pizza in the greater Connecticut/Hamden area, and I have no doubt I’ll be back. The service is great, the pizza is tasty, and the cost is low. What more could you want?"

"The pizza is amazing here. I have lived in Hamden for a long time and my friend brought me here recently and I was blown away. I have been here at least 2x a week every week! The gentleman there during the day, not sure if he’s the owner, but his customer service is untouchable. I can’t stop raving about this place to everyone I know! Go in for a slice and I’m sure you will be back for the biggest pizza box they have!"

"Amazing pizza. I always think about picking up a pie but then I remember that they don’t have a 18 inch pie. The difference between a 16 vs 18 inch is equivalent to an 8 inch pizza extra so it’s a big deal breaker. An 18 inch is a real large size and I think they should offer it even if they label it as “extra large”. If they did this I’m sure more people including myself would order more. Their next size up is a party size which is way too big. For 2-3 people, a 16 is too small and it’s way too costly to order a 16 inch and a 10 inch. For the meantime, I will stick to their slices. Amazing pizza. Very NY style pie."
