Old World Pizza Truck

Food truck brought great pizza to a party I went to, hard to give a fair review as I didn’t have to pay anything. Our friend had to pay per person, and its hard to know how many people will really show up to any party. So I can’t say much about the overall value.
Pizza truck had a brick oven and cooked all the pizzas on site in the wood burning stove. Pizza variety was unreal, everything from the normal standards all good, to the specials like BBQ chicken & bacon, to the unusual like clam pizza, to the very rare filet mignon and potato pizza (my fav) and spagetti & bacon & meatball pizza, to the very bizarre peanut butter, jelly & bacon.
Something for everyone I guarantee. Deserts were good, fresh homemade gelato 4 flavors and cappuccinos & espresso. They also played music. Best of all they clean up and leave you with nothing but leftover pizza. A real value to any big outdoor party.

We use Old World Pizza Truck for a day after wedding party/​family reunion. We had 135 guest. We have number of favorable comments.
1. Office staff — very professional and responsive to our needs
2. Truck arrived early enough to set up and serve on time
3. A wide variety of delicious gourmet pizza’s were served. As good as a the best that New Haven has to offer including their white clam pizza. Gelato, espresso and cappuccino were a bonus.
4. Very friendly cooking and service staff.
5. Truck had a great sound system that played whatever Pandora mix you want to hear
If you are going to hire a pizza truck, this is the one to use

One star is due to the way the company is run. Not very truthful when THEY make a mistake in scheduling and expect their clients to change their plans. Went to a party recently that was to start early in the day only to find out the truck would be over 4 hours late. Contracts were signed and poor excuses provided to the people who booked the party. Long story short — they double booked the same time slot and instead of honoring the contract signed first, they opted to go with the contract with the larger party. Business contact actually admitted the order of which contracts were signed and said that the other party had more guests and was a repeat customer so they would not move their time. Would never recommend based on this experience. Pizza was «ok» — they mass produce multiple pies before serving them so by the time they begin the pies are cold.

Fantastic pizza! And so many toppings offered! We celebrated my daughter’s wedding with 125 guests and everyone raved about the pizzas! The salad was delicious and the gelato was the best I’ve ever had! The service was outstanding and very professional. I have been to other parties that used a competitor pizza truck, and Old World Pizza is definitely superior! Thank you to Janet & Jack and their servers!

Great concept! I would have given this 5 stars but the staff was so unfriendly. The good part, the pizza was awesome! The gelato and coffee were awesome!

We used Old World Pizza Truck for a rehearsal dinner held at a local park they were Awesome!!! The pizza was absolutely delicious, and the selections and variety amazing! Roasted cauliflower, blueberry, shrimp scampi, spaghetti and clams and on and on. Our guests had so much fun trying pizza they wouldn’t typically try in a restaurant and it was all absolutely delicious. The staff was fun, creative and courteous and even accommodated gluten free diets. Can’t say enough good things about this operation! They really helped contribute to a very memorable wedding weekend for our son and his new wife. A great experience!

three words:
supradeliciousness, tastefulnessness, and flavorocity.
all of them are words I made up specifically to describe the otherworldly experience that was gorging myself on the pizza from the truck.
the people that staff the Old World truck go out of their way to make your experience otherworldly. I can’t emphasize enough how stellar of an experience this was.
in summation, as I sit here, dining on this wondrous gelato dessert, basking in my slice of pastoral Americana. I harken back to those there words, taste, awesome, fun. the words that describe the taste of success. and the Old World Pizza Truck.

Outstanding variety of delicious pizzas, salad, dessert etc. Staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. they make a great party experience. Highly recommended. We attended a bat mitzvah that they catered for about 50+ kids and adults. Everyone remarked on the great food. It couldn’t’ be better.

I’ll start with this: this pizza is fantastic.
These guys really knew what they were doing. Flawlessly served an incredible meal to a good sized party. The pizza ranged from your standard pie done perfectly, to deliciously creative. The peanut butter pizza is an experience in and of itself.
The guys operating the truck were incredibly friendly and fun to hang out with.
Since eating their pizza, I have been trying to figure out if there are any upcoming parties I could use them for. Great food and a lot of fun.

Fun and low labor way to throw a party. The pizza is fresh and delicious and can cater for any special diet. Staff is friendly and informative. Try the BBQ chicken and blueberry or. Mashed potato pie.

Old World Pizza Truck catered a party that we attended this part Saturday in Southbury, CT. They pulled the truck right into the driveway of the host, and served up dinner for about 30 people. The truck has a wood-​fired oven inside of it, and the pizzas (New Haven-​style pizza, thin but with a bready outer crust) were all made on-​site. The pizzas offered ranged from traditional (cheese, pepperoni) to fancy (shrimp scampi, cauliflower cream) to whimsical (peanut butter, mashed potato) and were universally delicious. Special orders were offered for those with unusual food needs (like gluten-​free). They also served gelato for dessert.
The only downside to the night is the pizzas were not hot when served, for the most part, because they could only make 2 to 3 pizza at a time, and had to leave them out in the cool air while cooking more. But this is a minor thing, as the pizza was good warm or lukewarm and they would reheat any pieces if asked.
I can’t speak to cost, as I was a guest and not a host. Overall, highly recommended!

I am the event coordinator and primary cook for the Sound Cyclist Bike Club (
) based in Fairfield CT. We hired OWPT to cater our Labor Day ride that we do each year in Greenwich. We could not be more pleased with their service, quality of food, selection and professional attitude. The staff that came to the event were wonderful, they were patient and took the whole event to a higher level. We had 100 hungry people, (most of them had just completed a 35 mile bike ride) and anticipated that it would rain at any minute… the weather held and after eating the wonderful food and been given truly professional service 100 very happy people left singing their praise. I wholeheartedly recommend them for a unique catered event.

Great pizza, great selection and great service. Would have given them 5 stars if they had anchovies!

LOVE LOVE LOVE Old World Pizza Truck. Communication was excellent! Staff was excellent! Food was excellent! Would definitely have them again.

Every year the place I work arranges for them to come and make us lunch. It’s always a fun time, albeit a bit of a clusterf— given that we have 200+ employees… although that should give you a sample of the breadth of their skill. Given the circumstances they have to work with, they do a great job!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE their mashed potato pizza, and whatever they make with clams is also very good. I was disappointed though this year, I don’t know if the old truck broke down, or now they have 2, but instead of the old fashioned antique truck, this year the truck had a modern International cab.

I highly recommend Old World Pizza Truck. We had a very positive experience with them for our event. They offer an extensive menu of gourmet pizzas, a top quality salad, gelato or pastry and espresso and cappuccino. We even requested particular types of pizza prior to the event and they accommodated us the day of. They manage to be both professional and down to earth. Janet is a sweetheart who has years of diverse culinary experience. I can’t say enough great things about them. If you hire the Old World Pizza Truck for your event, you will not be disappointed and your friends and family will be impressed.

Amazing pizza, great fun, and kids love it. Every gourmet pizza you could imagine and gelato. I recommend this to everyone wanting a fun backyard party.
