Clemenza's Brick Oven — Restaurant in West Springfield

If you are looking for a pizza restaurant to feed your family of 5 on a budget of $25 this is not the place for you. Clemenza's offers brick oven pizzas cooked at around 900 degrees. This style of pizza is similar to a.new havem crust but without the bitter charcoal flavor. Calemenza's has done am excellent job of creating unique flavors and by keeping them menu short and simple, most of their ingredients appear to be greasy and not frozen.

The appetizers are expensive however very tasty. We had an order of the risotto balls and the eggplant fries. At $11 each, neither of these were cheap. The eggplant fries were a great twist on french fries and the serving size is reasonable. The risotto balls were the crowd favorite however at $11 for 8, they are expensive.

We ordered a medium meat lovers pizza on regular crust and a farm sausage on a cauliflower crust. The regular houseade crust is decent however the pizza is thin so make sure to order a large if your party is hungry.

The carm sausage's pizza (red sauce, sausage, caramelized onions, spinach topped with a pink cream sauce and fresh mozzarella had a great flavor however I feel it needed to be a little more salty to balance out the cream sauce. The cauliflower crust was not homemade was thin like a frozen pizza crust and is small. I would recommend sticking with a regular crust unless on a dietary restricted because the house made dough looked to be superior.

Wait staff was nice and friendly. The man who I assume was the owner was attentive, the restaurant was not too busy and while he looked to be chatting with some visiitng friend, he still was able make us feel welcome.

The overall atmosphere was nice and is a great local restaurant for those looking for a casual dining expierence.

The pizza and sides are great however they should be expierenced at the restaurant because fried food does not travel well and brick oven (New Haven) style pizza is at its best straight out...

This was my family's first time to Clemenzas since they moved from Westfield. I started off with an unfair bias because I liked their first location better. The indoors was bigger and it was neat to see the pizza cooked in the oven, which you cannot do at the new location. However when I came in I was greeted by very nice staff and they quickly got us menus and took our orders. My drink came and it seemed like the fountain machine syrup was a little low so they actually came and brought me one out of a bottle which was really nice. They have a dairy-free option for cheese which is awesome for someone like me who cannot have dairy. I'm more so came for my son who wanted to try brick oven pizza, so I got myself some of their hot honey wings. The wings were good and crispy and had really good flavor with the honey sauce. In fact once the pizza came my whole family was dipping their pizzas in the hot honey sauce left over. The mushrooms were unfortunately can however the cheese sauce everything else was great. I feel the value was fair for the size of the pizzas. They had great outdoor seating as well and today was a beautiful day for it. They were fairly busy, with four people in the restaurant. The manager, waitress bartender and cook. They were actually pretty busy with about 10 tables but the waitress kept up really well and we were not left waiting. She was very attentive and came to check on us a couple of times. The manager maybe the nicest person I've ever met he was very polite and checked on us several times as well. My son accidentally spilled his drink and they didn't make a big deal of that they just came and cleaned it up and again were very kind. Overall I would go back again down the road, but I would definitely like to see the amusing...

I saw a driver trying to take an order for this restaurant today. This driver came and asked is the order ready? The person working there said no and said 10 minutes. the driver said ok. She came back ten minutes later she asked again She working girl is not ready she said five minutes later. the driver said okay again. Five minutes later the driver came again she asked, did not answer. it went on like this. The driver waited exactly 55 minutes. Meanwhile, rastoran prepared the orders of 50 people and gave their orders to the customers inside. But this driver did not replace human. The restaurant can be very busy and this is met with understanding. Even 10 minutes is expected, but 55 minutes what is. If your order is small, the restaurant keeps you waiting. If your order is large, it is prepared first. This is not fair. Even if the person in front of you is a driver, he is trying to earn money for his family, you keep him there and prevent the money he will earn. You also exclude him. You act like you are not human. This restaurant distinguishes between people so that I will make money. I can't think of the person waiting for the order. Maybe a mother told her kids pizza and you send your order an hour later. The reason is the order is small. shame you lost your humanity. I am rich, I do what I want to the poor, I treat the worker badly, I treat them like dirt, you say I do everything. there is no one controlling this. In addition, their precautions for Covid 19 are very bad. There is no attention to the distance. Customers are not wearing masks. Be careful when entering. Also, if you are right, three people answer you at once. They go to defense. They gag your word. Give your orders big so your order will be...
