Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana

I used to visit the New Haven area frequently but never had the chance to try Frank Pepe's pizza. My first experience with it was a year ago in Alexandria, VA, and I thought it was just "ok" – nothing special. However, during my recent trip back to the area, I decided to give it another shot, and this visit was exceptional! Upon entering, I was promptly greeted and looked after by my server, who was both helpful and friendly. He introduced me to their seasonal special, the tomato pie, which I decided to order. I asked for a medium, but what arrived was larger than a typical large from other pizzerias – it was enormous! The crust had a nice char, and the ingredients were fresh and flavorful. The slice held together perfectly without sagging, and the taste was fantastic. I would definitel

Fantastic food and service. You won't find a better pizza anywhere.

Ordered expensive pizza take out. A regular large cheese pie barely had any cheese, was dry and tasteless. I have had better pizza here before but not tonight. I ventured out and also ordered a small meatball ricotta cheese pie which was even dryer and more tasteless. Never going back here. Super crispy almost burnt crust did not help. Extremely disappointed. I spent $46 and I didn’t even eat it.

It was a pretty good experience overall. My boyfriend loves to try different pizza spots and this one is pretty high up on the list. The service was amazing and everyone was friendly and attentive. The pizza was great, loved the Neapoliton pizza and loved the sodas here as well! Super refreshing. We were on the way home from Vermont and passed by for dinner and this didn't disappoint.

Waitstaff was outstanding! Food came out quick! We got Ceasar salad to start which was delicious definitely a top contender for best Ceasar salad and the pepperoni pizza was perfectly cooked and a nice thin crispy crust!
