“I haven't gone out for a GOOD pizza in a long time. There has been a lot of hype over Fuoco Apizza so I was excited to finally check them out. They are conveniently close by from my work too. Don't know why I haven't been by sooner. Fuoco has really set the bar high with their coal-fired pizza. The pizza is slightly and perfectly charred (or burnt) that it elevates the flavor. The crust was not too crunchy and the bottom wasn't soggy from the sauce. We went simple with our pie choices: Original Mozzarella, Margherita, and The New Haven. What makes it The New Haven pizza? It's a classic tomato pie with crushed tomato sauce, garlic, oregano, olive oil, pecorino. The sauce, cheese and spices lived up to the hype. A few months back, Dave Portnoy of Barstool Sports visited Fuoco and gave them a 8.5 one bite review. If you follow his pizza ratings--that is very high. The pizza, in my opinion, was some of the best New Haven style. I liked that the cheese didn't slide off with a single bit and I did not kill the roof of my mouth (iykyk). It's probably the best pizza around without traveling into New Haven and the best pizza local to Cheshire. Next time we will kick it up a notch and try pies with toppings. It's is a great casual lunch spot with a small indoor dining area and a nice outdoor patio to enjoy on beautiful days. Besides pizza, the menu includes salads, sandwiches, appetizers, wings and desserts. They carry Foxon Park soda... The birch beer is an absolute staple! I love that the menu is simple and not overly complicated. You order at the counter that looks into the kitchen then you choose your seat. The staff were very friendly and the pizza comes out very quick. The pizzas came out at different times because they were pulling the directly from the coal fire oven. The restaurant was not busy either for lunch, but they had a lot of takeout orders. Anyway, if you are a pizza lover, put Fuoco Apizza on your list.“
“Cheshire Pizza catered my birthday party over the weekend and it was excellent! Ordering was fluid, delivery was on time, and the pizzas were a big hit! We ordered 5 party pizzas: fig, buffalo, pepperoni, eggplant, cheese, and chicken tenders. This fed 70 guests and we still had some leftovers.“
“Four of us went for dinner. We had a pizza as an appetizer (I always do this at Italian restaurants), then veal park, eggplant parm ,Pasta with clams, and shrimp scampi. All the meals were great. Pasta was delicious. Service was great. We went early - good thing because even gets a good crowd mid week. The biggest surprise was the bill...just how inexpensive it was!! Lots for you money. Highly recommend.“
“I love Mom Pop shops. They are amazing and so personal and old fashioned. This place fulfills its name "Pop's Pizza". The serving sizes are really good and filling. For ~$20, we got two sodas, two slices of pizza, and a grinder. There is not many places you can do that. And there are plenty of options for food. The atmosphere was also very cute and homey. They have sports flags (Go Vikings!) And a bunch of pictures and stuff from the community. As a small-shop-supporter I will be coming backParking: There is plenty of parking if you're okay in the dark at night. As a woman, I'm not.“
“My wife and I arrived irritated and hungry after a 7 hour drive with so much traffic, we were looking for a place to sit down and eat, though there are two small tables inside this isn't the place for that. They stayed busy with calls and customers coming in and now after having a couple slices I know why. I'm not even sure what slices I picked, I both had bacon on them and one was a white pizza slice, and though I was worried because it was nearly 8 pm at night and who knows how long they had been sitting on display I wasn't in the mood to go somewhere else.Fast forward to my wife and I getting to our hotel and opening up the box and taking a bite, I smiled, it was one of the best bites of pizza I've ever had from NY to Italy to Germany to all over the US. My wife had one of their chicken sandwiches which was delicious too. You could tell when I was waiting for my slices of heaven they have their regular customers and in a small town they were super friendly. AWESOME PIZZA“
