Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana

Pro-Tip: order extra sauce. You’re welcome.

Half Potato/ Bacon (seasonal) Half Regular w/ Ricotta and Mushroom I’ve been to a couple different Pepe’s locations and they all seem all over the place in terms of consistency. This time around, it still had the amazing char flavor with quality ingredients. Thin, crispy, but not completely crispy all around, a couple floppy areas. If they had kept this in a bit longer, it would’ve been crispy all around and would’ve been a high 8. In terms of taste this is still on par with the other New Haven favorites. Quality sauce, quality cheese, good char, crunchy crust, delicious pie. 8.5 If you live far from a Pepe’s, you have to try it at least once.

Can’t lie not my favorite, a lot of hype around this pizza, the cheese was too sharp, the sauce didn’t taste like much and there was barely any of it. Only good part was the cook time. Not my favorite

Well, I don’t share Dave’s love for New Haven style pizza, this still isn’t too bad. This is my second time trying it the first time it was delivered and in route to getting to my destination it took forever so the pizza was dry and tasteless. I thought I deserved a second try and I’m glad I did. It’s good pizza but again it’s just not my favorite style. Still the sauce was goodcrunch was good not bad!

Better than the original??? It’s been a few years since I was at the OG spot on Wooster but my growing love for a well done, apizz style and overall hunger mightve over hyped this review a bit but if you told me this was from CT I wouldn’t argue. The oven is built to the same specs as the original and has about 15 years of seasoning in here. The crust is everything you’d want from a coal fired pie, that smoky flavor and char all over while having some nice consistent airyness. The sauce has the tang, has the sweetness complimented by the aid I’m sure of some grated cheese added before and after spending a little longer in the oven melds into one with that NH style cheese. It has that funk that all the best places in CT have, those first few bites will burn your face off but the flavor is out of this world. The Yonkers spot more than lives up to the hype of the Pepe’s name and deserves more recognition for delivering absolute elite level pizza.

Could have been thinner, but solid slice nonetheless.

First New Haven style pizza and not the last. It was amazing. Top quality ingredients. Beautiful char on the bottom. Zero flop.

This is one of the best pizzas I've had in a long long time. This pie has pepperoni and hot cherry peppers and all the components are divine! I suggest you eat their pies in the restaurant itself because placing it in the to-go box robs it of its most distinguishing characteristic, the insane crisp!

This is from a 6 year old pizza expert. He eats only pizza seven days a week and he know his pizza….

Got two pies from here: Original Tomato Pie with Mozzarella & Shrimp White Pizza. The original with mozz was solid, nice char on the crust. The Shrimp white pizza was out of this world! A must try, definitely worth a visit.

Excellent thin pies. Crust is maybe a little too crusty but pies have great life. Undercarriage and flop are impressive.

Not worthy of a 30.00 pie

better than most

Can’t go wrong. Throughout 10+ years of coming here, I’ve had one pie out of hundreds that was off. The rest all fall between 8-9. Top 3 in Westchester for sure.

Great pizza. Great crunch, great cheese, EXCEPTIONAL crust.

Love this pizza. Was not as good as new haven’s though. The crust was very doughy and was not burnt enough, especially by their standards. Ignoring those standards, the pie is awesome not a lot in the sauce department but exceptional cheese. Good stuff.

Extremely overcooked. What was left was a tasteless pizza.

The pecorino and fresh tomato really take this pie to the next level. Not quite the best, but better than your average football slice. Easy 8.1. Possibly the best of Central Ave.
