Everything about the restaurant, management, staff, and menu is exceptional. And the round pies are AMAZING, but the Detroit style pies often come out with a lot of raw dough in the center/undercooked. Pizza is hard and they're doing amazing things, better than most other places in Connecticut.
This restaurant (Vernon location) is also new, so I'm sure they'll get the Detroit pies dialed in soon. But as it sits, (went back twice about a month apart) they're still coming out undercooked in the center due to the oven temps being too high and maybe the hearth being too cool.
That said, the round pies are incredible. They were also a bit underdone and floppy when they first opened, mostly due to too many wet ingredients not being pre-cooked before putting on the pie for it's final firing, so they leaked a lot onto an otherwise well cooked crust. But they're now much better, some of the nice Neapolitan style pies around! They're toppings are delicious, really well balanced for the dough, and interesting.
I hope this review doesn't sound too harsh cus I will definitely be back. They're just above and beyond most other pizza places in the area and I want them to be perfect
Very, very good Napolitano-style pizza. Happy hour - between 2 and 6, is really unbeatable. Gotta go for the olives. Soooo glad it's soooo close. Try the Piggy Figgy. The only fig, prosciutto and arugula pizza in the area
Best thin crust pizza I've had in literally 7 years.
Fried spaghetti appetizer was a surprise delight. The wings were perfectly crispy, and delicious.
The staff was excellent, especially since it was their first day open, and surprisingly busy, but the food was all coming at a good pace.
Definitely will go back, the menu looks interesting.
