Martino's Pizzaria — Restaurant in Watertown

I was in the area, I remembered to stop here and try. Heard about the place from the owners Tik Tok. He does a good job on tik tok so I always wanted to try the joint out but im never in that area. Im glad I stopped by. Its take out only, just a counter when you walk in. Theres a bunch of high school seniors working there very friendly crew. I ordered the Margheita pizza in the 14 inch medium. The pizza was beautiful when I opened the box. I loved how they dressed it. Pizza held itself together it wasnt floppy, and it has a crunch on every bite. The pizza was cooked well done which I appreciate. The sauce has a nice herby taste, dough perfect balance of lightly sweet with salty. I took the picture in my car, and proceeded to finish all but 2 slices before i got home. They did their this margherita. I am going back tomorrow or the next day to try a plain cheese. If it goes as well as this one did, then this place is in my top 5 in CT. I only judge top places off of plain cheeses.

Edit: I revisited and bought a large cheese this time. Pizza was BEAUTIFUL. Looked like a cartoon pizza and cooked connecticut /NH style well done. If you want it cooked regular you may have to ask im not sure. For me this was perfect. There was some slight grease pool , very small in the middle area, dripping when I took a slice. It wasnt too much and it did not affect how the dough held up. This dough is a strong dough and takes the grease like a champ. I loved this pizza. Just look at the picture of this pizzar its a work of art. Martinos is in my top 4. When I think of getting a pizza now theyre at the top of my list.

Note: between the 2, the margherita was crunchier probably because there isnt a bunch of mozz on it. One or the other is better depending on what you prefer. For me, ill probably be ordering 1 of each everytime I come here because theyre both so good.

had the buffalo mild or medium great wings too. Between the pizza and wings this place deserves your attention,...

Very excited to try Martinos because my son's friends raved about it. It was very busy and the young lady told me 35 minutes for pick up at 5:15 pm (receipt time). Seems to be a community go-to and veteran supported or owned. After waiting in the car for about 45 minutes, I went in, in hopes to pick up my food. As other orders that were submitted after me were done. Waited around, listen to the many community discussions about the game, bought law enforcement dinner, was told my pizza just came out, and continued to wait. However, after 15 minutes when I asked the young lady for an update, she was annoyed and said they are working as fast as they can. Another order was prepared and I asked the kitchen staff to check my order and the young lady said "it it an hour and 10 minute wait" twice with an attitude. (The wait time then had nothing to do with my order almost an hour ago) Followed by the cook with hat stating "we are not just standing around." When my pizza was ready, the large hot lip pizza was not hot. The small cheese was barely warm. The garlic knots and 6 wings were hot. I accepted the order and walked out.

Taste of the food- The pizza was delicious 😋. The flavor and ratio of the ingredients were nearly perfect. The wings were flavorful and spicy. The garlic knots were a little overcooked but soften due to the steam. Garlic overload and we loved it!

Communication is key! This is not a Burger King spot, good food takes time but communication helps with customer expectations of delivery. Thus, customer service can improve but we are human. Hopefully when I try them in the future, it's a better experience and communication. I'll definitely...

Third edit to respond to Miserable Martinos: I don't sit on Google all day to see if you've responded. Clearly you do as you were right there for a response. What a sad life you live. Imagine being 65 and slinging mediocre pizzas still. Guy took his high school job too seriously and never made anything of himself. Now he sits on Google getting mad when people say his pizza isn't bad but that its also not great. It was an honest review and pipsqueak got tilted.

Second edit: Very unprofessional of the owner to continue to double down. Their pizza here is fine. There is far worse but also FAR better especially in the area. I didnt bash this place yet the owner spends their personal time combing through my reviews just to insult me. Had i realized the owner was so thin skinned i would've just left my 1 star review and gone on my way but now we have the CT Department of Consumer protection getting involved as the owner is seemingly stalking me now. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. You can find pizza of the sane quality or higher without dealing with a snowflake.

Edit: You can go through and see my reviews. Not only do I not use Tik Tok but I find it unprofessional to lay down personal attacks on someone who offered a fair and honest review with no bashing. This just solidified that I will not be back.

The pizza is a dime a dozen in CT. You could go to any neighborhood pizza joint and get this pizza. It's not bad, but nothing...
