This place is consistent : the best pizza and of course the best Prosciutto Burrata Pizza . Staff is super Friendly and happy, that makes me happy. I just Brought my family here tonight, they are visiting from Ecuador, so I decided that they don't need to go to Manhattan to taste the best pizza, I feel that we are really fortunate here in Ridgefield to have this wood fired Pizza locally.

The best place for pizza. Their pizza is delicious especially the wood fired. They have many different to choose from or make your own! Gotta try the Smore's Pizza for dessert. They menu has something for everyone. Their staff is very friendly and helpful.

We just had dinner at 850. We brought our son and his young family and placed our order. It was over an hour before our grandchildren got their kids meals. After more time our 2 pizzas and salads arrived. This is unacceptable for any guests but much more for our group, two of which are diabetic and got their insulin once we ordered.
Our grandchildren were beyond patient but but we knew that the service was horrible. The booths around us filled twice while we waited. We asked for the manager twice and no one came. Very Disappointed !!

Disappointed on my recent visit. On my first visit this summer the salmon wrap was exactly as described and delicious. On my second visit just this week I tried the pizza especially with the website heading "Voted #1 Pizza . ".
The pizza margherita was dry, crust overcooked, toppings of mozzarella and tomato sauce were skimpy - barely there - and the basil topping had been cooked beyond recognition. I should have sent it back . . . but didn't.
I had looked for an email address for the owner or management in order to share these comments privately - but none found. So my only

Disappointing to say the least. The waitress cared more about mingling with her co-workers than customers. She didn't get the order right, very slow to get our food. The screaming children and lack of parenting (that came in about an hour after us) didn't stop even after we asked the staff to kindly tell them to level out the noise. When asked to speak the manager, the waitstaff asked which manager would you like to speak to. (There's a choice?) It was clear the manager was siding with the larger party of the screaming children and avoidant parents than the 2 of us. (Business and money over respect

Ate at the bar. Had a great IPA and tasty sausage pie. No complaints. Beer cold. Pizza hot. Both delicious.

Great, classy atmosphere, lots of different options for the style of pizza you want, and quick and upbeat service make for excellent dining. The selection of other dishes isn't as big as some pizza restaurants, but the wide variety of pizza options more than makes up for this. Highly recommend visiting if you're in the area!

I always find myself returning. Pizza is so SO fresh & delicious. Its something about that sauce too, I had the meatballs & fried calamari in a different occasion and both were delicious. The carne carne carne pizza is amazing. Drinks are great too. The ambiance is great too, seating is well distributed & service is great. Our server was very attentive. Ofcourse highly recommend & will be going back.

I used to really love this place but sadly the pizza isn't good most of the time, especially at the prices they charge. Tonight I got the bacon chicken ranch pizza and pistachio, both were dry and not so tasty. The bacon chicken ranch pizza didn't have any ranch dressing on it... And the pistachio pizza barely had any honey on it, making the pizza almost inedible. I will not be rushing back to 850.

850 isn't a terrible restaurant but when you take the high prices and better quality pizza in the area into account, you're better taking your business somewhere else. If you can drive an extra 15-20 minutes there's Pepe to the north and colony to the south, both of which are much better quality and cheaper or the same price.

Again, the food wasn't bad but I left quite disappointed when I waited quite a while for my food, saw the price on the check, and knew there was better quality pizza in my area.

Pat & company are amazing. Pizza is classic--my uncle drives 1 hour to come to Ridgefield to get it!

However if you only try the pizza you are really missing out! Penne ala vodka is a top catering option and if you taste it you will know why!

6 stars out of 5!

The pizza here was absolutely phenomenal the servers where very friendly and the food came out incredibly quickly. The portions for the price are a little smaller than I thought but each pizza is absolutely loaded with stuff that we were full after two slices anyway! Absolutely delicous highly recommend

Huge fan of Hawaiian and 850 is one of the only places in town getting it right. I judge pizza places by their Hawaiian pizza so 850 gets 5 stars from me!

Excellent pizza coming from a NY-er. Really nice and thin crust, if that is your choice. Flavors are great. Service is excellent also. Quick and easy especially now during the pandemic.
A glass of red vino is your choice.

The gluten free pizza is good. However, they recently changed the crust and it was definitely not a change for the better. The main reason for the 2 stars, though, was the disappointing sanitary practices. I watched while tables were only cursory wiped down, and chairs not at all. That's not okay during the COVID outbreak. Worse, the staff wears gloves, but opens and closes the same door as the patrons going in/out for pick up -- with their gloves on. It's ABSURD and renders the use of gloves worthless. Moreover, no contactless payment options (they took my credit card inside per

We are not local, and have never eaten at this establishment, but it's a favorite restaurant of a dear friend, who is a nurse. We called to purchase a gift card for her and they were so very generous and kind, and have such respect for our healthcare workers! We appreciated it so very much, as did she.. If I am ever near this restaurant I will most definitely stop in and have a meal! THANK YOU!

Nice bar room and outdoor "beer garden" style patio for nicer weather. Have had some mixed experiences with the food but generally been pretty good.
Have to admit the buffalo pizza (my teenager daughters favorite) is pretty good if you like that kinda thing. Also like the classic wood fired margherita. Mac and cheese however is tasteless but hey, that's for kids right?
Decent salad options.
Cajun chicken wrap needs reworking in my view. it's served hot (oddly not called out on the menu) off a panini grill and has lettuce and mayo in it. Ummmm.. not sure about hot lettuce

Bibb lettuce salad with beets. Slapped on a plate with zero presentation and watery soggy dressing.
850 specialty pizza , wood oven : they have four choices of type of pizza and yet seem to use the same dough for all the cooking methods. Dough was tasteless as cardboard. Stingers - chopped up were bland as 1950's green peppers, hot oil must have been forgotten as the pizza description completely missed on the execution of the presented pizza. I would have expected some charring and uneven bubbly crust from the wood oven but the pizza dough was flat and tasteless as a frozen gluten free pizza

This review is STRICTLY FOR THE $12 MAIN DISH SPINACH SALAD

ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL.
A few small handfuls of spinach, maybe a teaspoon of slivered almonds, same with goat cheese. It was really a side salad.
The side salad must be ridiculously small.
Absolutely unacceptable. I probably won't return.

Had to come home and eat.

Went here on a Saturday around 630pm and was seating right away at a nice table outside. Any waiter that approached us was super nice. Really liked the outdoor seating... it was very open and relaxed and there was a man setting up to play live music for the night.
We ordered (for three people):
- wood fired tuscan salad ($13)
- the artichoke pizza ($17)
- the cauliflower pizza ($16)

Everything came out soso fast!! And it was all the perfect amount of food. Honestly everything was really good. Zero complaints. Would love to come back soon and try some of their other fun pizza combinations!

So 6 pm picking up my daughter and getting hungry. We walk down this alleyway to a pizzeria. Hmmm. Ok we will try it. So we are sat outside with ample sitting for like 50. Hostess and waiter were very friendly and accommodating. It's hot out so we get something lite. Steak Salad!!!! Yummmm. I could have eaten 3 of them..... I did take the tomatoes and mozzarella cheese out and subbed it for extra onions and gorgonzola cheese. This is probably one of the best salads I have ever eaten. I think it's due to the white balsamic dressing. Def reccomend and WILL be back.

Nice atmosphere - live band played outside (mostly 70s music) during dinner. Excellent way to spend the night during early summer. Really good pizza (wood fired, New York style or ultra thin) and some "different" selections of pizza also (Mac and cheese pizza). 12 inch personal size.
Parking lot is shared by many restaurants/stores in the area so can be a bit tricky getting parking. 7 pm seems busy time. Only issue was there was only one stall for the bathroom.

I got ultra thin pizza from here several times. They were good, but still can't compare to Colony's. But if you are in Ridgefield area, this might be the best that you could get.

If you are not in the mood for pizza, give wood fired salmon a try! It's so tasty. Salmon was pan seared and then finished in wood oven, topped with cilantro oil. Spanish rice was also delicious. I always licked the plate cleaned!!

I had my rehearsal dinner in the private room at this restaurant, and it was a wonderful night with terrific pizza. Prior to booking our event, we had a lovely dinner here trying a few of their more out-there pizza options. My favorite was the Pine Nut pizza, which was amazing. The Brussel Sprout pizza and the Prosciutto Burrata were also very good though not quite as good as the Pine Nut, which I could not stop talking about days later.

For my rehearsal dinner, we had a large private room in a separate building right across the courtyard. The room was clean, spacious, and recently remodeled

I was with a dozen female family members in town for the weekend. They accommodated us without a reservation and we received excellent treatment.

We hung out in the bar area while our table was getting ready. There was a good musician playing acoustic music. We all had drinks while we waited.

I had the Pear and Walnut Shrimp Salad. This included arugula, sliced pears, walnuts, dried cranberries, grape tomatoes and grilled cajun shrimp. The shrimp was flavorful. The homemade pear dressing was really tasty. They usually top it with shaved parmesan cheese (I'm allergic, so I asked them to hold
