Old Stone Trattoria

Inconsistent food. Overpriced wine list for the hovel that it is. Terribly managed, loud, rude, horrible waitress. Never going there again.

Ordered for take out the first time tonight. I’m house sitting in the area and decided to try it out, despite so many bad reviews. I have to say, I should have listened to the reviews.
I ordered a cold antipasto, the specialty clam pizza with no bacon and baked manicotti. All were pretty averagely priced for Westchester.
Let’s start with the cold antipasto. I never got it, it was a chef’s salad. I do have to say the greens looked fresh in this salad but it wasn’t what I ordered.
Remember the clam pizza with no bacon? Well it came with bacon. Two strikes. The woman on the phone even repeated my order back to me so I’m confused as to where the miscommunication would be? Ate it anyway, was fairly tasty but I’m not a huge fan of the taste of salt (hence no bacon) so I’m not very happy.
The baked manicotti was quite literally plain ricotta cheese wrapped in a pasta topped with what tasted like grocery store brand shredded mozzarella and a watery out-​of-​the-​can tasting marinara sauce.
The one really good thing I can say about Old Stone Trattoria is that the garlicky bread that came with the pasta was very soft and tasty.
Overall very unhappy with my experience and I highly doubt I will be ordering from here ever again.

Just moved to town and this place is a few blocks away. I have eaten my share of pizza and I can tell you the pizza here is excellent. Crisp crust and it’s done right. I go here a couple times a week usually to grab slices at lunch. Went here for a sit down meal with the family a few weeks back and ordered chicken parm dinner, was amazing. My kids are picky eaters and they loved the place. They asked us if we would move tables after we sat down to acxomodate a larger group which we were happy to do because we wanted to be outside anyway. The owner or at least I think it was the owner gave us our drinks on the house which was a classy move. I highly recommend this place and am glad it’s nearby.

Really 3.5 star rating is deserved. Food, wine and espresso were very nice. Needs cloths napkins, water glasses made of glass. Wine glasses were real. Nice place to come to again.

I ordered the veal and pepper wedge, the worst sandwich I ever had 3 tiny pieces of veal a few peppers and mostly onions for 9.25 will never eat there again ripoff

This place has definitely gone up in quality of pizza. The vodka slice is ON FLEEK!!! I am still salivating at the lingering taste in my mouth. The white slice is also fire. Overall, best pizza in Chappaqua by far. Best vodka slice in Westchester that I know of. Good job guys, I’ll be back in your gitty tomorrow.

The pizza here was very good! But I can’t say the same about our waiter. The waiter here seemed annoyed by our party of 6, didn’t want to help us find a table outside, and when giving us things seemed to have an attitude. When I’m spending money, I want to be served nicely, and I can’t say that for here. I suggest the food, but maybe do a take-​out order instead of sitting here.

Ordered 2 appetizers and couple wraps… wraps came out first… and were ice cold… apps were good… but overall just alright, nothing to go out of your way for

Pizza used to be so good, but it’s gone downhill. It’s expensive and the pizza is so greasy. Also, the last time I had it there were HAIRS in it.

Pizza is very good. I would recommended dinning in. Fresh toppings and tasty dough. We have had issues with delivery and not always getting what we order. If we have the time to eat in we will.

We order take-​out from here pretty often and have been customers since they opened up. One of our favorite pizza places and I love their salads; always fresh and generous portions. We haven’t had a sit-​down dinner here yet so I can’t attest to it but the staff has always been friendly and attentive.

I love everything about this place. It’s sicilian pizza is every bit as good as DeFaro’s. Their shrimp parmagianna is wonderful. And they make, as specials, salads in cheese baskets. Their tapanada that is served with their bread is perfectly flavored. The service is wonderful and the prices gentle. I’ve brought dozens of people there who love it. My only complaint is that it oftentimes is justifiably crowded and you’ll have to wait for a table.

Good pizza.

Lasagna was awesome. Penne a la old stone was also good. Pricing was reasonable although other items seemed a bit pricey. Probably more items on the menu than need to be.

I’ve been going here a while now, take out and sit down. I really can’t say anything bad about the place, I’ve never had any issue with my food or the service. Between my family and I we have had majority of the items on the menu. It’s always well made and flavorful, with quality ingredients.
I always appreciate it when the owner is at the restaurant, especially when they are behind the counter or in the kitchen. And the is no shortage of Angelo (the owner) there. He has a real passion for his restaurant that shows in the quality.
As for the wait staff, always helpful and knowledgeable of the menu. Marta is or favorite!

Causal pizza spot in town with some pretty good lunch specials on the menu. Opted for a shrimp parm sandwich with some sweet potato fries… couldn’t have been happier. The pizza on the other hand was a little weak. The dough was a little too soft, pick up a slice and it just flops over, I prefer to have some type of texture and stiffness to my slices!

After sitting down and then reading some of the harsh reviews of this place, I was admittedly a little concerned. But none of the negatives came to pass during our family meal here this fourth of July. Instead, we had a great meal that we will never, ever forget.
As much I’d like to say the memory was made thanks to the food we ate here, the truth is our experience was memorialized the moment Bill Clinton stopped by the window and peeked his big olé head in. This being my first trip to Chappaqua, I had joked with my in-​laws on the ride over as to whether we would run into Bubba dining here, and of course no one expected that would happen. But then lo and behold, I am staring the man in the eye as he looks through the window.
Understand now that I am the *last* person to go gaga over celebrity sightings. And even if deep-​down I am somewhat excited by seeing someone famous, I have a rule to never bother them. But my mother-​in-​law would have none of it, and thought this was the opportunity of a lifetime for the grandchildren. And to her credit, Mr. President seemed to be fishing for attention by peering in the window. Long story short, we followed him outside and asked for a photo, which he happily obliged. (Several photos, actually.) He even hung out for a bit, let us play with his two dogs, and was essentially the same charming man that you have always seen on TV. Pretty amazing. He really is larger than life.
As for the food, well, turns out Clinton is a frequent visitor to the Old Stone Trattoria. And let’s face it, Bubba knows a good meal when he sees it. (Although it was clear from the photo, Hillary’s keeping him very trim.) Well, I must say I had one of the more delicious plates of pasta that I have had in a long time. It was a simple dish that I ordered: Whole wheat penne baked with eggplant and marinara sauce, and topped with a layer of fresh mozzarella. Dishes like this all come down to the gravy. My friend Marc N’s family makes the best gravy I’ve ever had, and this was pretty damn close. You cannot get this much flavor without making it from scratch, and cooking it for hours and hours on end. It was absolutely delicious.
My mother-​in-​law and wife shared an eggplant wedge. (Normally, being from NJ and all, I refuse to call subs «wedges,» but I’ll be nice in this case given that I was dining in the Wedge Belt.) MIL and wifey said it was very good. My manorexic father-​in-​law had a small Chappaqua Salad, but wasn’t able to finish it. (smh) And my son, the healthy eater he is, had a giant slice of chocolate layer cake and only ate the icing off the top and back. A classic family dinner.
Old Stone Trattoria, truth be told, is technically just a glorified pizza joint. But they’ve decorated it such that it feels like you are dining in someone’s house. And the BYOB policy is nice given that they have a liquor store literally right next door. I did not try the pizza unfortunately, as that would be the true measure of this place’s greatness. But I did spy an artichoke and spinach pizza on whole wheat crust on the menu, which I most certainly will come back for. And who knows, maybe next time Bubba will come in and join me for a slice.
(No deduction of stars for all the Chappaqua locals who gave us the stinkeye for bothering their local celebrity. Tough titty for you.)

I’ve only ever had their pizza, and rolls, but I always left overly satisfied. The penne vodka roll is ridiculous, and not to be left out. The pizza is thin and the flavor was excellent. Staff was very outgoing and attentive. The décor is very nice I love what they’ve done here.
I can’t seem to understand those negative reviews…
I’ll return again and again Yummy!

This place is terrible. The food is mediocre at best. $ 12 for six ravioli, are you serious? Management screwed up our delivery order then didn’t even offer any discounts, coupons, or anything. Such a mistake we’ll never make again.

I hope my friends and my father don’t read this. Both groups have raved raved raved about Old Stone. I’m afraid since living in NYC for the past two years I might have become jaded in my food tastes. But I found Old Stone to be good, just not superb.
I loved the atmosphere inside the restaurant. Somewhere between a beautiful home style Italian restaurant and a pizzeria. Such a nice Italian restaurant for the every man has not really been part of Chappaqua before, and so I am happy for that. The service was also very good.
Now onto the food. We ordered the fried calamari, my fiancée got penne alla vodka, and the table split a pie of garlic pizza and a pie of sausage pizza. The calamari was a little underdone. The calamari loops were very large and buttery. Though the squid-​y leg parts were much better cooked. My fiancée thought the penne alla vodka was decent.
The pizza was pretty good. I liked how the sausage were in long pieces. It was slightly greasy. The thin crust was probably my favorite part, as it was wood-​fired to perfection. The garlic pizza was okay. The crust wasn’t as crunchy and it was also slightly greasy.
In the end, I think my view was tainted because of my friends and my father’s over-​hyping. They tried to prove to me that this restaurant is way way way way better than anything Chappaqua or possibly Westchester has ever seen. But in the end for me, the décor was top notch, but the food was equal if not only slightly better than other pizzerias and average Italian restaurants in bordering towns.
