Disappointing pizza 11/18/2006

I had read that Willington Pizza was the perennial winner of the best of Tolland in the pizza category so we stopped in recently on our way to a UCONN basketball game. It is popular, but the pizza was very disappointing. Thick crusted, pre formed crust with a disappointing tomato sauce. Next time we will stop at the Big Y in Tolland for our pizza. Cons: mediocre pizza more

What about Willington Pizza too 4/14/2006

Willington pizza is great but what about Willington Pizza Too. It has the same great pizza with a littile different menu. With wings, beer and a TV in every corner it's a great place to watch the game. It works for me because it's right off ext. 69. Pros: The Red Potato, Close to Uconn, Great beer selection Cons: not a full bar more

It's worth the drive 7/18/2003

I drive about 45 mins to get there, but it's worth it! I started going there about 10 years ago, when i first met my wife. She and I always drove by on our way to the beaches and stoped in one evening for a pie. We were both very impressed with the quality of the pizzas there even the common shroom and roni were to die for. Their crust is very tasty and fresh, the toppings are the same the two things I dont care that much for are the wait to get a seat and the staff was not very bright (although the very good looking college girls are nicer to look at than talk to). Overall this is one of the very best pizza joints I've been to in the US. Pros: quality, creativity, inovative atmosphere Cons: the wait, the staff, parking more

Perfect combination 1/2/2003

Willington pizza is a great place to go for classic pizza but with its own original flare. The atmosphere is great for families or large groups and is an excellent change of pace for college students to get away from dorm food and not have to pay exorbitant prices more

Absolutely must try this place!!! 12/24/2002

Willington Pizza is not a restaurant, it is a Eastern Connecticut institution. Their pizza is top notch and the atmosphere is wonderful. This is a trip worth taking if you're not from the area, and if you live nearby (as I do) it is a weekly ritual. P.S. Try the red potato pizza and the cheeseburger pizza (the latter may sound strange from its menu description, but if you like cheeseburgers this will be your favorite pizza ever!) Pros: red potato pizza, cheeseburger pizza Cons: location more

Almost worth the drive! 12/6/2002

This pizza is so good, you will bite your tongue trying to eat it! My only complaint is that it's a little tricky to get to the restaurant. Definitely one of the best pies around though. Dominick-Plainville Pros: Great Pizza, lots of UCONN memorab Cons: difficult to find res more

RED POTATOE PIZZA !!!!!! 11/30/2002

Being lucky enough to live near one of the countries best pizza houses affords me the luxury of a great pizza when ever the mood strikes me. Still there best is the red potatoe pizza with brocolli N bacon. Still getting in there after a UCONN game is always tough. but the crowds don't bother you once you've sat down and placed your order. It can be one of there famous pizza or one of the many other great meals offered by there competent Chefs. Pros: interesting decor, 2nd shop nearby, good parking Cons: Busy on game day more

Great food and a hometown college feel! 10/2/2002

Been eating here for years! Great pizza, you must try the red potato pizza. Sounds odd, but it is fantastic (and fattening, but the guilt is very worth it!) A must try for easter CTers. more
