Elm Hill Pizza — Restaurant in Newington

Who knew I needed to experience Greek style pizza? Traveling from coast to coast for work, having tried pizza everywhere in between… this pizza is whole heartedly top 5 best pizza I’ve ever had. The crust absolutely blew my mind, it was light and crispy. I ordered half pineapple and ham and half buffalo chicken. I meant to take half of it home, it did not make it out of the pizzeria. The crust along with being so light and crispy in the outside and soft and light in the inside , has a hint of buttery goodness that hovered around my olfactory senses for the next hour. This place is an absolute gem. As I ordered and sat to eat, I saw multiple people come in, each one was greeted by the family that owns and runs this joint with their first name, genuinely happy to see them. This pizza joint makes me wish I grew up close by, the food, people and culture...

Ventured off the Turnpike to come across this gem sitting cross the street from a great little Italian deli, "Public Market". I knew from the awesome smell and the line of people this would be a good experience. Since it was my first visit I ordered my "go-to" peppers and pepperoni. Nice crust, crispy yet tender and chewy on the inside. Saucy, good tomato flavor, not "pastey", not too "herby". Generous amount of pepperoni (not oily!) and very nicely thin cut green peppers cooked to perfection, firm with a little crunch left. Excellent balance of crust to toppings to sauce ratio. I can't say anything bad about it. Shop is small with just a couple booths but we got it to go. Staff was friendly, attentive and very efficient on a busy Saturday night. Nice job! 👌🏻 Will...

The woman who answers the phones is completely inaudible. Speaks extremely fast with a heavy accent. I have guessed two times as to what she said. Even when picking up the price sounds like a mystery and she hands puts the food up before the other customer even pays. Another customer almost walked off with my grinder.

As for the food, it is just okay. I ordered a meatball grinder and was asked if I wanted sauce and cheese on it. What other type of meatball grinder is there? The cheese was practically non existent I couldn't even taste it. Also ordered a chicken parm grinder on another go and was asked if I wanted it cold or hot with sauce and cheese. This is a pizza restaurant? Learn what a chicken parm grinder is. Also put it on your menu. Again,...
