I actually had my first bad experience at Colony Last week. I wanted to get some for guests from out of town, and ordered 4 pies.

Of course, they were crazy busy when I got there and had to stand at the counter for an extra 15 minutes beyond the time they said to give them.

When I brought the stack of pies home, one of the boxes in the middle was COMPLETELY EMPTY.

I was sooo angry, but my guests were hungry and I live about 20 minutes from CG during rush hour, so I didnt go back to get it resolved.

I am really suspicious of what happened here, because I really have a hard time believing that someone who boxes pizzas all day could pick up an empty box and assume there was a pie in it.

Also, all the other boxes had writing down the side, this one did not – so I am supposed to believe that not only did they not feel the box was empty, but no one looked at the sides of the boxes going out the door to make sure the order was correct? Fishy.

I almost feel like they slipped me an empty box because they were so busy.

Well written, my friend. My family has roots at the Colony. My grandparents actually went there on their first date there, and all my uncles’ service pictures are on the wall. I’ve spent the last two years trying to explain the joy that is Colony pizza to my girlfriend, but to no avail. Finally, I had a chance to get one brought down by car to North Carolina. It arrived at 9 a.m. today and since the first slice my girlfriend has been trying to get us to drive all the way from Greensboro, NC to the Stamford for a fresh, from the oven pie.

I eat pizza from Colony Grill 3x per week. I go with my Irish buddies every other weekend. Always get the Hot Oil..is it their signature pie. They have perfected the bar pie with thin crust. I have had bar-pies before, but never with the crust so crispy.

They get so busy that they have to put the phone off the hook when taking orders!

How does one find out about that rule??? I’ve been in Stamford nine years! Is the reason I don’t know about it because people don’t talk about it?
Clearly, that rule is a ploy for publicity.
