Re: Ok guys, where do you get your pizza in CT? John's Best in New Milford. It's on Rt 7 (south of town) where the Boston Market used to be. The non-pizza items are good too.
Italia Mia used to be good, but it changed hands and its gone down hill quite a bit. The original guy was there for 30-40 years.

Check them out. |

 drbill28 join:2006-03-25 Pomfret Center, CT | Well, I'm sort of a pizza snob. There's not much around this area I like. I miss Italian Village Pizza from when I lived in Pittsburgh for a few years.
I obviously prefer my own NY Style pizzas I make.
But, Palmeri's isn't bad in Putnam. Though, usually cheese is odd and isn't truely NY Style. Often pizza is not cooked enough. The new place Nuccios in Dayville wasn't good, I had to scrape the flour off the bottom of my pizza.
Pizza Pizzaz, I didn't like. To those who say Pizza Pizzaz in Putnam, I think you mean Pyzzz. Which is ok, but not as good as it used to be. The other Pizza Pizzazz is in Danielson.
For Greek, I like Johnny's in Brooklyn, Johnny himself is of course awesome and a nice guy, sad I hear they will retire in a few years and none of their kids wanna take over. It's not that puffy bland crust most have.
I want to try Willington Pizza House, it sounds ok and the second location is on my way home from work. I'll try Athens in Putnam too. Zoe's is right out. That was just plain awful. |

| reply to signmeuptoo I've never been willing to drive very far to get pizza, and generally prefer free delivery. On occasion I've even consumed Chuck E Cheese pizza and thought it wasn't all that bad (super combo only, their cheese pizza is like cheese on cardboard).
Anyway, today I read in my local paper that Pepe's of New Haven is coming to Danbury. I'm looking forward to trying some. It looks like Pepe's is either franchising or just growing. Hey, now Danbury has a Chuck E Cheese and soon a Pepe's. We are becoming a city after only 300+ years. 
I think Danbury started out in 1685 as Swampfield by early settlers with absolutely no marketing concept and a very literal view of what they saw. Shortly after in 1687 the British colonial powers that be corrected the Swampfield atrocity and named the then town Danbury ... but finally we are getting a Pepe's, our old Swampfield settlers would be so proud. 
Story from - »www.newstimes.com/news/article/P···8531.php
DANBURY -- Lovers of Frank Pepe's Pizza in the region won't have to travel much farther to get a slice of their favorite pie.
Owners of the popular New Haven pizzeria have submitted plans with the city to open a Frank Pepe Pizzeria on Federal Road near the Harley-Davidson store.
The plans call for a restaurant with enough seating for nearly 70 customers. The application still needs to be reviewed by building officials.
The plans also call for a large brick oven to be constructed inside the building. The exterior, meanwhile, will be upgraded with brick veneer and copper flashing.
Charles Troccolo, the owner of the building, said he believes the pizzeria could be very successful at the location, which is near Interstate 84. He declined to comment on when the restaurant might open its doors.
Besides for the original New Haven location, Pepe's Pizza also has locations in Fairfield, Manchester, Yonkers NY and at the Mohegan Sun casino.
Officials with the popular pizza restaurant were not immediately available for comment. -- "People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use." |

It looks like Pepe's is either franchising or just growing. I once went to one of the Pepe's "franchise" at Bridgeport. My first impression was that the place/environment was different than the original New Haven. But one major downside was the pizza taste, which was totally different than the original we know. The pizza taste was more like "regular" pizza instead of "the Pepe" pizza.
I never go to other "franchise" locations so I'm unsure if the different taste was just applied on one locations or else. |

 camperPremium join:2010-03-21 Bethel, CT | reply to signmeuptoo I get pizza at Grassy Plains Pizza in Bethel. Garlic and onion are the toppings of choice for me.
The "famous" New Haven pizzas do nothing for me, they are far too oily for my taste. |

| reply to signmeuptoo This may not go over well, but I have been turned to the dark side.
PapaJohn's in Danbury is so darned easy to order from online.
The pizza is decent, not great, but acceptable. Selection, price, delivery, and ease of ordering are all amazingly good. It's nice to pick your options on a web site. -- "People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use." |
