Karas Pizza House on Madeira Avenue has been a New Bedford fixture long enough that some customers have been ordering there for over two decades. The kitchen works from generations-old recipes for dough, sauce, and cheese, and takes pride in gourmet pizza experimentation. Beyond pizza, the menu spans chicken house special subs (noted for fresh rolls), roast beef sandwiches, jalapeno poppers, and cheese fries, along with pasta dinners and wraps. The roast beef comes on buttered rolls, and the cheese fries arrive with both melted and wet cheese. Regulars praise the consistency and speed of service—a straightforward spot to grab food without fuss.
