Posted by  //  September 6, 2011  //  Articles, Mike's Food for Thought

Pontillos Pizzeria 124 Groton Ave, Cortland. 753-3655. They are open 7 days a week. Hours of operation are Monday thru Thursday 11AM-1AM, Friday and Saturday 11AM-2:30AM, Sunday 11AM-Midnight. Available for Pick up, Delivery, and Dine in. They also do lunch now too and there is plenty of parking.

Pontillos offers daily specials. On Sunday-Wednesday you can get their all you can eat spaghetti dinner with 2 meatballs, bread and salad for only $6.75. I have had this several times and it’s delicious. The pasta is cooked perfectly, the sauce is thick and rich and very tasty, great tomato taste. The meatballs are very tender. I love meatballs but some places they are too dense. Not at Pontillos. They are superb meatballs. You also get a very nice tossed salad and it’s a large salad, plus a basket of hot, crusty garlic bread. All this for $6.75, what a deal. Plus you can have more at no extra charge. It’s all you can eat spaghetti.

Thursdays special is chicken parmigiana dinner or ravioli dinner. Friday’s special is a haddock dinner or stuffed rigatoni. Saturdays it’s baked ziti or ponzones for $7.40. They also have Take out or Delivery specials too.

Of course Pontillos has pizza, and it’s great pizza. They have a large, medium, pontini, which is a small pizza and they have sheet pizzas. I love the chicken wing pizza. It’s fantastic and you can get it mild, medium or hot. It’s like having your pizza and wings at the same time. The chicken is tender and the buffalo sauce is perfect. I also like the BBQ chicken pizza. Instead of tomato sauce, you have bbq sauce on your pizza. It’s a taste sensation.

They have a few unique pizzas too. How about the white broccoli and cheddar pizza, or the clams casino pizza, and the garlic pizza. I get the garlic pizza a lot too. Sauce, cheese and sliced garlic, 3 ingredients and it’s great. I get it sometimes because It’s a healthier pizza. Garlic and tomato sauce are good for you.

Pontillos offers a very large menu. They have some really awesome burgers. All are 1/3 pound burgers before cooking. My son says they are better than any burger he’s ever had anywhere.
Don’t forget, Pontillos also has appetizers and a wide array of pasta dishes. Another item I like on the menu are the subs, hot and cold. You don’t have to go to philadelphia to get a great cheesesteak. Pontillos has a wonderful philly cheesesteak sub. Great bread, tender steak, melted cheese, Yum. Also I love the sausage and peppers sub.
