Classics CT pizza. Love this place since I was a youth. Don't forget your Foxon soda when you go. White pizzas very good.

My brother and I are New Haven Apizza snobs. We rate on a scale where the Modern and Sally‘s are A. There is no other A. We are impressed by Grand Apizza. The key to excellence is the crust and the sauce. The way to evaluate them is to order a “plain”. (if the shop doesn’t offer plain it’s immediately disqualified). I ordered my usual “half plain half mootz” and it was great. My brother got some other toppings and that was excellent too. We rate Grand Apizza B+, just beneath the legends. A wonderful surprise on the shoreline.

I discovered they appear to use chicken patties in their chicken parm dinners. This is sad, because, other restaurants I frequent, use real chicken breast for the same price. I don't go to an authentic Italian eatery to be served chicken patties. The funny thing is the waitress saw me picking under the sauce and cheese and asked if everything is OK. I said yes, because I was trying to figure out why the meat was all the same shape and size. Don't get me wrong, it was delicious. It's not what I expected.

First the food here is very good but I ordered a small pizza to be delivered plus other items. Everything was good except for the sml pizza . I do not know if it was dropped or what but the hole top was off of the pizza and all stuck to the box and the crust was broken and folded over. It was a mess so I called the owner told him about it and said he could come get it so he could see . He said no just call when you want one again and he would just replace it. I have 3 times he will not get on the phone he never asked for my name . Not happy as I do like this place and never had a problem before and I am very sad I have been treated like this way as this is not something I do but to buy something and have to chuck it and try and talk to the owner I am not happy. Maybe he has money to toss out but I do not but seeing he has bought the comcast building to move into I guess he has the money and one customer dos not matter. Very disappointed in the place.

We moved to Illinois and missed good pizza. Back in CT for vacation, we satisfied our fix here with a specialty pizza and a clams casino pizza. Delicious and just what we needed! The service was friendly and patient.

Grande Apizza just tied Zuppardi’s on my list for my favorite pizzas— and that says everything. The dough has that perfect balance: tender but with some old-school bite. Sauce? Straight-up excellent — bright, clean, and clearly made in-house. Cheese melts smooth, never oily, and blends into the pie like it was meant to be there.
This is serious pizza. No shortcuts, no gimmicks, just flavor done right. Every bite tasted like someone actually cared — and that’s rare these days. Whether it’s a plain pie or something more loaded, they hit it out of the park.
If you’re the type who judges pizza like it’s a family heirloom, Grande is where you go.

We had Grand Apizza food truck cater a party and we were incredibly impressed. They were easy to communicate with, punctual, and everything tasted amazing! They offered multiple kinds of pizza, stuffed breads, and salads. Would definitely recommend!

We all liked the food.
Servers were very friendly.
Cash only is a big bummer, honestly. I am very against cash establishments.
My “go-to” pizza place.
