I felt the quality wasn’t so great. Interesting toppings but didn’t like the quality. There are many other better alternatives for pizza in this area.

I was actually really sad when they took over pink berry but I finally went in years after to see what the hype was about. It actually turned out to be a really neat pizza place. They make the pizza right in front of you and it only takes about 8 mins for it to bake and it’s delicious!!! I actually met up with a few friends here and we all had different pizzas I had the buffalo chicken and it was spicy but so good! They are thin enough where you can finish the whole pizza without feeling too full. I will be back I actually really fell in love with it! And price wise they are about 8 – 10 $ which isn’t bad at all.

If you like thin crust this is the place for you! I really liked the fresh toppings of mushroom and arugula. The pie was done very quickly which suited me just fine. I took mine to go and my only complaint is their boxes. They are kind of flimsy and even with a piece of brown paper between the pie and the box the underside of the box got greasy so difficult to transport. I will be back to try the dessert pies.

First time and my little guy had plain cheese pizza and I had pepperoni. Came out quick and both were delicious. This is thin crust pizza and nice texture. The pepperoni has a nice little kick to it. Nice staff and they have one of those soda machines with tons of choices.

A quick option before seeing a movie — the pizza was just ok. We walked in and it was a little confusing as to where one should place their order. Once we figured it out we were asked what we would like. There is a pizza and drink combo for around $ 10. The young woman behind the counter began kneading the dough — as the crust is super thin– and feeding it through a machine that flattens it. I must admit I was a bit grossed out because she had long fingernails and no gloves. But then again I am a self-admitted germaphobe. I asked about the gloves and apparently they don’t wear them because they were getting caught in the machine. They do put gloves on for when they put the toppings on. The pizzas were cooked pretty fast and we were in and out in plenty of time for the movies. The seating is self serve and the place is not huge so there were loiters waiting for us to leave.

So, we went to Posh after finding out that the wait at Cheesecake Factory was 45 minutes. We had 5 hungry kids so the fact that there was no wait was appealing. Well 30 minutes later we were just getting to the register. While the pizza making was quite artistic, it look much longer than we ever anticipated. There were several fits and starts — wrong crust, wrong topping). Then the fountain machine was not working(thankfully we were offered free bottles of water) and when the pizza finally came out it was cold. Not sure I would do it again. The kids liked their classic pizzas with bacon. But my southern margarita with sausage and spinach was just OK. Speed needs a big improvement.

After moving back to Connecticut from Brooklyn, I heard there was a new pizza place right in Blue Back Square — naturally, my husband and I had to try it. Posh Tomato focuses on thin crust pizza, and they do mean THIN. I mean that in the best way possible — the pizza is freaking delicious, and you don’t feel bloated or über-greasy afterward. We came on a Saturday night and sat outside. They made our pizzas quick, especially given how busy they were, and brought them out to us. Again, I really enjoyed the food — reminded me of upscale Brooklyn pizza places — but what I didn’t enjoy was the staff. The guy working the pizza oven was nice, but everyone else seemed rather aloof. Notably, we visited earlier this year and I hope the situation has improved.

Posh Tomato– I’ve eaten here three times the first time was really good, the second time wasn’t good and the third time was so-so. The pizza is ok, its served quickly and the crust is razor thin. The pizzas are personal sizes and are just enough to fill me up. Overall, its an ok pizza shop.

I was excited to try this place since it’s franchised by the owners of Goldberg’s bagels who can do no wrong in my book. Unfortunately I’m going to have to agree with Joe C below, it’s not good. I called in an order(from WOB across the street) on a Thursday night for a pie with pepperoni, mushrooms and onions. They only had red onions, so I left those off. I was told 15 minutes. not really the 2.5 minutes they claim. The pepperoni is diced, ruining any chances for glorious grease cups. The crust is beyond thin. Like the thinnest cracker you’ve ever had, but not crunchy. I do enjoy a good NY slice but this is not that. I can think of a hundred other pizzas I’d rather have than this. Would take 75 personal pizzas from this place to fill me up. Don’t think I’ll be back :(

The food was delicious. Fresh. They give you a choice between whole wheat or white. I got whole wheat with their signature meatball pizza and it was really good. You get to watch them putting the pizza together. It’s a hidden gem between the tea shop and the book store. Love the environment. Very friendly people. I will be coming back for more.

So many great toppings! Both the refill and the wheat crusts are excellent. This is the perfect choice if you’re crazing thin and crisp pizza, or need a really quick bite somewhere. They are working on serving wine and beer soon.

First of all I don’t know why these counter style(aka: Subway-Chipotle-style) pizza joints are becoming a trend. One called Red Tomado opened up in New Haven this past year and shortly afterwards this place opened up. Second, can I have my money back? Their menu claims«you are five minutes away from the best pizza of your life.» It wasn’t. So can I have my money back for false advertising? But seriously, was somebody not getting toppings they requested, which prompted these counter style assembly line pizza joints to sprout up? Plus, what’s the obsession with getting a speedy pizza? Pizza just takes a few minutes to cook in an oven anyway. It is already one of the fastest food items you can make. Their pizza is a great concept: rolls eyes: …charge full price for a full pie and use only the amount of dough normally supplied for 1.5 slices. That’s a terrific concept for their bottom line, but it sucks for customers like you and me who are hungry. So their their pizza crusts ends up being thinner than a potato chip. Yup it’s the thinnest crust I’ve ever experienced in my life. It resembles a matza more than a pizza. However it doesn’t surprise me that this pizza chain originated in Brooklyn. Some of the worst food I’ve ever eaten has come from Brooklyn. I ended up paying $ 13 for a lunch and still had to grab some food later on at Whole Foods because I walked away hungry from this place. So I really don’t know what is so posh about Posh Tomato. You’ll have to purchase two pizzas to equal a normal pizza at any other regular pizza place. That ain’t called posh. That’s called stupid.

Joe B, Thien N, and I got to Posh just before it was about to close. Mad props for letting us hang out a bit and devour your delicious pizzas. The people who work here were pretty chill and into joking around with us. But more importantly, they helped us choose some great additional toppings on some of their listed pizzas.(The toppings weren’t necessary, but I like how they helped us get creative.) The pizzas were done in a jiffy. They’re super thin but not thin on the toppings, letting the flavors and combinations shine. Definitely a cool spot with some solid pizza. I’d definitely come back.

I’ve never experienced pizza like this before! Super fresh delicious ingredients, that they put on the thinnest pier of dough I’ve ever seen! It’s not your normal pizza place, but trust me that’s a good thing! You’ll have to try it to see how good it really is. Also try their Caesar salad pizza(it’s cut into only 4 slices which you then fold to eat) and their dessert pizza in addition to anything else you get! Trust me, they’re worth it!

Now I know why this place is called Posh Tomato… The pizza is alarmingly thin, just like Victoria Beckham, a.k.a. Posh Spice. This new concept of the quick pizza sounds cool, but the result is a glorified Easy Bake pizza. I would not even called it pizza, I would call it glorified cracker. You need three pizzas to be full. In short, there are better places to have pizza within walking distance like Rizzutos or Harry’s. However, the employees are very nice. FYI: They are opened until 11 on Fridays and Saturdays.

Love this little place… They have pizza ready for you in 3 minutes. Imagine a really yummy pizza, with the best ingredients like mozzarella sliced, portobello mushrooms, and basil on a whole wheat thin crust. They have great outdoor seating and if they served wine & beer it would be the best. When you go you have to try the desert pizza and tell Chad that Ava sent you.

WOW! Paper thin(not exaggerating, like might be thinner than paper), hot, fresh, top-notch ingredients, and most importantly, delicious! When you walk in you step up to counter and they roll your pizza dough and top it right in front of you. It took less than 5 minutes for them to cook the pizza due to the paper thin crust. I’m digging this fast casual pizza concept. Fun and unique! We ordered the Charcuterie and Fromage and the Arugula. The white sauce in the charcuterie pizza was sooo delicious. The arugula was extremely fresh and refreshing on top of the pizza. They also have a bunch of different salad pizzas that I can’t wait to try. So glad this place popped up in Blue Back Square!

It has been way too long since I’ve written a review and this restaurant is the perfect way to start up my review juices. Stopped by the old pink berry to check out the new restaurant in town and also have a legit excuse to stuff my face with pizza. Think of this place as a cool, trendy, fast-food joint where you can select from a few favorites or build your own. Originally I was going to order a «salad» and the salmon pie because it sounded somewhat healthy and unique. I soon learned the«salad» was a pizza salad and the guy behind me told me his fave was the Caesar salad pizza. I ended up ordering just the Caesar pizza and Wow, so happy I switched my order! The crust is paper thin and so easy to roll up and devour in a hot second. The salad toppings were fresh and plentiful but a tad messy when eating on a slice of pizza. The price is what you can expect for a gourmet style pizza located in We Ha. The atmosphere is really relaxing though there are not a lot of seats. Also, expect to wait for a good 5 minutes for your pie but I’m telling you, it will be worth it! Ps. Go all out and order that chocolate dessert pizza too(I will next time)…you know you want too.

Overall very impressed with this place! The pizza is delicious and the vibe is cool. It’s very reminiscent of a pizza version of chipotle. The concept made me nervous because I thought it would take a long time, but the pizza came out in less than 5 minutes. But let me emphasize: the pizza is delicious. I got the portobello pizza and it was better than expected. The price is very reasonable. Around $ 10 for a personal pie. The only downside is that there isn’t much seating, and I would imagine that it would get crowded during busy hours.

Just finishing my first pizza here and I’m really eager to write this review. I’ve seen the«coming soon» signs for a few weeks and I’ve been very excited to try these pizzas. The pizzas are extremely thin crust and«personal sized», about 10″ across. The thin crust is perfect and highlights the really fresh toppings. I split a portobello pizza with a friend, and everything tastes great. You can tell the cheese, mushroom, and basil were fresh. On the menu are also dessert pizzas which looked quite amazing. The location is perfect in Blueback. Pizzas take about 5 minutes, which is great for both eating in and taking away. In the inner months I can see myself ordering a pizza and eating it in one of the sitting areas in the center. That being said, there’s not too many seats if you do want to eat in. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone visiting the center. It’s a great mid-shopping food spot.
