Cara Mia’s Pizzeria

Very rude employees. Ordered for dinner tonight and the girl on the phone was very rude and did now understand when I asked if they were able to do thick crust for the pizza and she did not understand what I was trying to ask. She then she seemed frustrated when I told her I wanted to pay with a credit card. This isn’t the first time I’ve had employees from there being rude to me. Don’t know if I will continue ordering from there and I order there a lot. Very sad.

Canned mushrooms on pizza? That’s a mortal sin. I thought the first time I ordered from them they might have run out of fresh mushrooms, so I gave em a pass and waited a couple of months to give them another shot. Well, canned mushrooms. Makes me question the freshness of all their toppings /​ingredients. Ramuntos is right down the street!

Cara Mias charges an entire dollar for anything other than the lettuce and meat (specifically on mine was black olives, pickles, onions and cheese). I have given them the benefit of the doubt and I have ordered a sub from Cara Mias a couple of different times now and every single time they have been skimpy with their fillings. I think i counted four onions, seven black olives and four pickles… for four dollars. The time before this I got tomatoes when I didn’t ask for them nor am I a fan of them. I also asked for extra pickles and again could count them on one and a half hands. Hence this review. If you are looking for a loaded up sub, meat and no extra cost for veggies, check out Maxies Tubs and Mini Subs on State Street in Rutland. Reasonable and much tastier.

BEST pizza in vermont moved from NY finding c.m. has been best food find ever .The original pie just like NY, the staff is kind and they will try to accommodate any request. a gem of a find, wish we knew of this place when we first moved here!

Wonderfully delicious pasta and calzones. Fast, friendly staff and generous portions. A bit on the pricey side, but worth it, in my opinion.

One of the fastest restaurants in Rutland. Usually takes 10 – 15 minutes every time, while other lunch options like Gills usually take an hour (if you call in)
I think the food is great here, the people are nice. We choose Cara Mia’s AT LEAST once a week. I really recommend you to try this place out.
I haven’t had one bad thing off the menu.
My suggestions…
Hot Italian Sub
Any Calzone
Chicken Parm Sub
Pizza is great, with authentic Sauce, and thin crust. Definitely in the Top 2 of Rutlands Best Pizza.

Ordered a mushroom & green olive pizza today, unfortunately they don’t have green olives. When the pizza was delivered I called to let them know there was a problem. Without any arguments and some apologies (they tried to call but it didn’t go through somehow) they offered us a new pizza. Great service and really good food. MUST try the cannoli.

During my short stay in Rutland, I spotted several times the Cara Mia’s Pizzeria delivery trucks «whizzing by» through Downtown Rutland. The delivery trucks are oven heated for «hot» delivery. I was getting hungry and I decided to give Cara Mia’s a try for dinner takeout.
Cara Mia’s Pizzeria is open 7 days a week at 11AM and geared towards takeout and delivery only since the place has no table seating, just a few seats for waiting across from the order counter with open kitchen area.
For takeout, I ordered a Small 10″ Cheese Pizza ($ 5) and a Spaghetti & Sausage Dinner ($ 5), totaling $ 11 with tax. I watched my food being made as I waited. The pizza dough was hand stretched and spun in the air, then topped with sauce and Grande mozzarella cheese and put in an oven lined with bricks. The food was ready in under 12 minutes.
The cheese pizza was pretty good, which had a thin chewy crust with plenty of thick tomato sauce and cheese, a bit greasy. The spaghetti & sausage (in a round foil container) was very good, which was a good sized portion of al dente spaghetti, a thick soft Italian sausage and plenty of thick and chunky tomato sauce, served with a warm section of soft French bread loaf. I enjoyed the food with a nice green salad I had packed in my cooler.
Overall, a solid good dinner at a reasonable price with a few pizza slices leftover. I would order from Cara Mia’s again.
