Better than expected. Slices seem small and they combined two to make one $6 order (slice is $6) . The service is fast and friendly. They probably make a ton of pies early to have it ready so its faster during the rush but you can tell the pizza has been sitting there. They have traditional "Brooklyn" pizza ovens that warm up the slices with flavor and some crisp. Bread cheese oil were all pretty good and was definitely better than most airport pizza stops. No beer though.
I make it a point to stop here every time I’m at BWI! Pizza in very good! The staff could improve their service skills and be a bit more friendly but I don’t really care about it during a quick interaction. Definitely stop here to grab a slice or take a whole pizza home!
My fiancé and I were traveling back to Chicago from Florida and had a layover stop at BWI airport. We were very hungry and did research a few options for food and wine, but one establishment was forthcoming and not open yet, and the other was nowhere to be found where it was listed.
As a result, we came upon two or three more options and decided to try Tony + Benny’s. We ended purchasing a pan slice of the Classic Sausage and Pepperoni pizza.
Being 1st generation Italian (98.5 % Calabrese), I have grown up with phenomenal Italian cooking and innumerable Italian American pizza options in Chicagoland, as well as in New York (while visiting my relatives in times past ), and every attempt at various styles of pizza in between—coast to coast.
I’ve also sought out true Italian establishments (like Il Ritrovi in Sheboygan WI of all places) for AUTHENTIC Neapolitan pizza.
I’ve even make my own homemade pizzas and in various styles.
I have to say, the “Brooklyn Style” pizza from Tony + Benny’s was exceptionally delicious and had that certain something that set it apart from many pizzas I have tried, regardless of style or region.
I Wish I had another piece of the sausage and pepperoni right now! Speaking of the sausage, growing up, I made Italian sausage at a mom and pop local establishment and know what ingredients I like in the mild or hot sausage itself including fennel seed).
I didn’t have time to micro-analyze the sausage on a layover, but the sausage used on our pizza at Tony + Benny’ s tasted more like what I grew up with and was delicious.
The pizza slice gets a 4.7 out of 5 stars.
Last but not least, the person taking my order was very kind.
There was not the fully engaging “wow” customer experience offered overall from the personnel there that was more engaged in speaking and joking with themselves. Yes, it’s still an airport, and generally busy, and it was in the evening; and unless you are an owner operator, I’m sure no one is getting wealthy working there.
At the business I help manage, my work ETHIC is to treat every patron as a welcome guest and proactively pay attention to them and ready to serve them and or engage and answer any questions at a moments notice.
So the customer service at that moment when I visited was a flat 2.75 stars. Nothing awful.
I will definitely seek out Tony + Benny’s pizza again if we ever get back to BWI.
The first bite brought back childhood memories of my first New York pizza. I’ve chased that taste for years and finally found the same authentic taste at Tony & Benny’s. Delicious. They offer free drinks with combos. I chose the Caesar salad for my side but they also have spaghetti and a house salad. I will be back!
The 3 young men working in the Pizzeria right now were extremely polite and helpful. They helped me and my daughter figure out what to get and they were so sweet and patient with everyone in the line. This has been the best customer service experience I have had in a very long time!
Decent food for an airport restaurant. The people working were pleasant and helpful. Had the egg & cheese on a roll.
Great pizza slices. A bit greasy so if that causes you to make frequent bathroom trips then maybe not the best choice for you. They so have some salads and sides but I can't refer to their goodness or lack thereof. In the end you are at an airport and just need something in your belly to get you through.
OMG. I have been dying for a slice of pizza from by the train station or bus stop in New York. No need to want it anymore. This pizza is to die for. I spoke with Andrea and complemented her on good the pizza was. I told her it was only missing the bag and grease folded in half. Come to find out she is the manager. One of the best slices I have had.
I stopped at this restaurant at BWI while waiting for my flight (April 5). The aroma from the food was enticing and looked great and I got a slice of pepperoni and sausage pizza with 2 garlic knots. The pizza was delicious but the knots were FANTASTIC. They were soft, chewy, hot, fresh, and seasoned perfectly. I was also served a free soda as part of my lunch order.
After I was done I stopped to tell the employee who waited on me that my lunch was really good. He smiled and said ‘thank you’. I noticed he was hand-tossing another pizza dough ( the pizza crust was really good).
All I can say is I will recommend this place and hopefully come back again.
This was a good slice of pizza was in a hurry
We bought pizza for my 4 year old daughter. She immediately dropped the pizza. The staff promptly gave us a new one without charge. They were very nice and accommodating. We appreciated their generosity so very much during a hectic day of travel.
