Ozzy's Apizza hits different, without bailing on that New Haven style. When im in the area, it is mandatory to grab a pie. Many options available not just pizza.

Ozzyâs Apizza at East Rock Market â Respect Served by the Slice
Second visit to Ozzyâs, this time rolling in with the Slice Mob, and it only confirmed what I already knew, Louâs the real deal. No gimmicks, no shortcuts, just respect paid the New Haven way: through damn good pizza.
Ozzyâs lives inside the East Rock Market, a cool, community-driven space full of local spots; coffee, food, good energy everywhere. Itâs laid-back, social, and exactly where you want to be when great pizza hits the table.
We started with the buffalo chicken, built on Louâs housemade sauce, bold, tangy, perfectly balanced. Then came the half-sauce, half-mozz pie: simple, honest, and flawlessly executed. Bright tomato, creamy mozz, and that two-day fermented crust with the perfect chew and char.
This round, we also went big with The Swanson, a carnivore loverâs dream stacked with flavor, and The Gene Parmigian, a chicken cutlet loverâs fantasy, crispy, cheesy, and pure comfort.
Lou doesnât need to talk up his food, it speaks for him. Each pie is proud, passionate, and crafted with heart.
At Ozzyâs, you donât leave the table hungry. You leave the gun, take the pizza.

Tried it last week. Based on the reviews, I was expecting the second coming of the pizza godsâbut in reality, itâs just a step above your average downtown electric-oven spot. Solid, but not mind-blowing. Iâd give it a 6.7 on the one-bite scale.

If youâre hunting for the best pizza in New Haven, donât sleep on Ozzy Apizza. This place is the real deal. The pizza comes out with that classic thin-crust apizza style, charred just right, with a tangy red sauce that actually tastes fresh and a cheese pull that doesnât quit. Every bite has that smoky New Haven edge that separates the legends from the imitators.
The crust? Strong enough to hold up without folding into a soggy mess. The sauce-to-cheese ratio? Dead on. Itâs got that perfect blistered bite on the rim, the kind of detail that tells you someone in the back actually cares about doing it right.
Iâve hit 70+ pizza spots all over, and Ozzyâs stands tall with the big names. This isnât tourist fluffâitâs authentic New Haven pizza through and through.
Bottom line: Iâll be back, no doubt about it. If youâre serious about pizza, Ozzy Apizza deserves a spot on your must-try list.
Iâve lived in New Haven for over a decade, and Ozzyâs made me fall in love with New Haven pizza all over again. By the time youâre a bite in, youâll be checking the box just to remind yourself what you ordered because the pizza is that good.
I love that all their specialty pies are fun and themed. every one Iâve tried has been a 10/10. Itâs also super cute that they write your name and the pizza you ordered right on the side of the box. And the mascot? Adorable. I kind of want one for myself đđ„č
Ozzyâs proves that even in the pizza capital of the world, you can still be surprised and find a new favorite. đđ
FYI The Mikey Rabbit doesnât mess around with garlic đ§â€ïž caveat emptor. Donât change a thing. đ€€â€ïžđŻ

Our family was doing a New Haven Apizza comparison test. At East Rock Brewery and tried to order take out from Sallyâs. Waited on line for 30 min and couldnât order by website as so busy. Saw Ozzyâs and decided to give it a try. The chef and co-workers were just the best. They totally hyped their Apizza and were so proud to show us their style. We were not disappointed. Crust was perfect thin and charred, sausage and hot peppers Apizza was insane. Clam Apizza delicious. They even noticed we had a dog and brought him pepperoni treats. Also quick service and so much cheaper than the big 3. Ozzyâs is our new No. 1!!!
