New Haven style and quality without having to deal with the New Haven crowds. Everything there is fantastic and has been for a long time. They are even catering our wedding celebration in June through their paternership with The Hops Company, we can’t wait. If you haven’t had them I highly recommend you try them out!
The toppings were plentiful and the crust is delicious. We ordered one with olives and pepperoni but without cheese because my grandson has a dairy allergy and he enjoyed it very much
There's not much to say about the pizza that's not already been said - it's excellent. What was unexpected to me is that they had a surprisingly decent selection of beer for a pizza restaurant. They also had a number of wines.
What is also nice about Zuppardi's is that they sell dough that you can take home if you want to make a pizza yourself, as well as a variety of other frozen foods.
The parking situation here isn't great, but that's not really on the restaurant that's been there since the 30s.
Zuppardi's, to me, is the quintessential neighborhood pizzeria. They're tucked into a residential area on the corner. There is ample seating inside in the form of classic booths and there is a friendly vibe. I decided to order the traditional plain pie and I was not disappointed. The sauce is legendary with a good fresh taste and a decent amount of sweetness. There is a dusting of parmesan rather than loading up with mozzarella like New York Style pies. The crust and base are very crispy and taste of fine bakery bread. This fabulous location came recommended to me from The Pizza Show featured on Munchies and it more than lives up to the hype!
I think this is the unsung hero of the New Haven pizza scene. It doesn't get the respect that the Big 3 get but I think it's right up there. The fresh white clam Pizza is the best anywhere.It's a little expensive but worth every penny of it. Their signature Pizza is the sausage and mushroom and it is wonderful. I've been getting it since I was a kid and it hasn't lost anything over the years. There isn't much else other than pizza here but if that's what you're looking for it is a worthy choice for New Haven pizza.
