Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana

I'm originally from New Haven CT. All my family are also from the New Haven area going back to late 1800s. We're a Pepe's abeetz family. After having moved to Arizona, I get to Pepe's once about every 5 years and it has never disappointed, always as excellent as I remembered, until now. I can't even believe I'm writing this. I just had a large mozzarella abeetz (7/27/2026) at the location on Wooster Street and it was not good at all. The crust was chewy and thick (hardly any crisp). Also, the mozzarella and sauce where less flavorful. It tasted more like Papa John's pizza then an abeetz from New Haven. It pains me to write this, but Dave Portnoy needs to do another review of Frank Pepe's because they've changed their recipe.
