Alexia's Pizza and Restaurant — Restaurant in South Windsor

Just tried their pizza for the first time and unfortunately it was pretty disappointing so we’re confused about all the glowing reviews.

Neither of us liked the crust. It was slightly crunchy and kinda crumbly but also bland.

The veggie pizza was okay aside from the crust. The garlic was overpowering on the white pizza. I am a garlic lover but it was too much even for me. I threw out the last quarter of my leftover pizza because I couldn’t bring myself to eat it.

We did like that their prices are reasonable and they give a generous amount of toppings. Would have been more convenient if they had online ordering.

Edit: This review was originally posted in July 2023. I'm not confused about which business I'm reviewing, despite the owner's implication that this review is for "the wrong place." I remember very clearly that we ordered from Alexia's, because we drove out of our way to try it based on the other reviews here. It was before their summer vacation began. I just didn't post the review immediately. The attempt to dodge feedback isn't a good look though and we definitely will not bother trying...

This is a great little shop that is currently takeout only. We love to have a variety of pizza styles so this was a nice takeout for us.

We ordered a meat lover pizza, garlic bread, and a calzone.

The pizza is definitely the highlight of the place for us. The meat was super generous, the crust was nice and crisp, and the flavor was great. Definitely something we would order again.

The garlic bread was good as well. Nothing crazy but just nice bread that was oven baked.

The calzone was the only disappointing note and the reason that the review is not perfect. Though the taste and size were nice, the dough was undercooked where it was thicker. I'm sure after we throw it in the oven for a reheat, it will be excellent but definitely not fun to bite into squishy dough.

The pizza was pretty excellent and what we will return for, only the calzone keeps the experience from...

1st time ordering from this place because of the rave reviews. I should have known better from the moment that I called to place my order. I was asked if I was sure that I was calling Alexia's, not sure why I was asked that, because I ordered a chicken parm dinner. When I got there to pick up my order, no one seemed thrilled to see me walk in. I checked my bag and saw the grinder bread (unwrapped) on top of the container of salad. I asked the cashier if she could wrap the bread so it wouldn't get hard because I wasn't going straight home. She took the bread out of my bag with her bare hands, wrapped it up and put it back in the bag!! How gross!! Never returning and for the record, the chicken parm was not tasty and the spaghetti was watery. I do...
