My first time here, since I was just visiting. Excellent thin pizza, which is my favorite. Crust was great. Will definitely be back.

Great pizza and super friendly staff!
Last year this place broke something in me. I thought I understood pizza. Thought I'd eaten everything that mattered, knew all the styles, had the hierarchy figured out. Then I had their grandma slice at the end of a long night after three other stops, and it demolished everything I thought I knew.
I've been back multiple times since. Today just confirmed what I already know. That grandma slice is perfect. Not hyperbole. Actually perfect.
The crust alone would be enough. Firm, airy, crunchy. Delicious. They could serve me nothing but that crust and it would beat 95% of the pizza in Rhode Island. That's not an exaggeration either. The texture hits every note. Structure without being heavy. Crispness without brittleness. Flavor that doesn't need anything on top to justify itself.
Then the sauce. Fresh in a way that hits immediately. You can taste each component. Normally I'm not a fan of sauce with visible chunks of tomato. Usually means someone got lazy with a can opener. This works differently. The chunks add texture, brightness, proof that someone crushed these by hand and knew exactly what they were making. It's a symphony. Every element pulling its weight, nothing competing for attention. Music in your mouth.
The fresh mozzarella underneath brings everything together and protects the crust from becoming soggy. That creamy base against the bright sauce against that transcendent crust. Each component is superior to almost anywhere. Together they become something that makes you question why anyone bothers making pizza any other way.
This is THE hidden gem in Rhode Island. Not on Federal Hill getting all the tourist traffic. Not in Providence with the food media buzz. Just Westerly, quietly making the best individual slice I've had anywhere.
Third stop of the afternoon. Stomach already working. Brain cataloging differences between places. And this slice cuts through all of that noise like a knife. Still perfect. Still the slice that everything else gets measured against a d never loses.
Last year I said it was the best pizza I'd had in Rhode Island outside the prime years of Twins and Caserta. I said it was top five anywhere. I'm not walking any of that back. If anything, the consistency of perfection makes it more impressive.
The place itself is unassuming. Brick oven visible behind the counter. Slices in the case. Real plates and silverware when you eat in. That's cool. No pretense. No marketing. Just people who know how to make pizza doing it as well as anyone.
They have other styles. Lots of different flavor combinations to suit your desires. They had a twice baked potato pizza on a New York crust. A chicken fajita pizza. Some great looking Sicilian pies. There's even a Gorgonzola version off the grandma pie. The standard cheeses and pepperonis, etc. So there's something for everyone. But for me, it's that Grandma slice. There's nothing else like it.
Worth the drive to Westerly. Worth whatever wait there might be. Worth coming back to again and again just to make sure your memory wasn't playing tricks on you. It wasn't. This is still the one.

Great food!
After a year in the depths of hell of Minnesota we have finally returned to the East Coast. The minute we got into Westerly we were told this was the place to go and they did not disappoint at all! We always go with the simple large extra cheese and pepperoni. The undercarriage is amazing, the snap is amazing, you can tell they use real mozzarella and not the bullshit. You guys made a Jersey boy blush last week! We will be back. We have decided to stay permanently here in Westerly and look forward to eating a whole lot more of you and your sister restaurant's pies! Cheers! Chef Rob Poole

I ordered a chicken parmigiana grinder 1st the bread was gross i’m sorry for being so direct, but I Grew up in Italian family. We’re taking pride in what you serve to People matters. First the bread was absolutely dried right out, burnt to a crisp crumbled Just like breadcrumbs when I bit into it. Secondly, you shouldn’t serve a sesame seed roll with chicken. Parm should be just plain Italian roll with the option of a sesame seed roll if you choose absolutely gross not a good combination. But sesame seeds are disgusting! Next, the chicken was absolutely gross. It was fried in a fryer and overcooked dry as a bone and gross. Definitely taste like frozen chicken that came out of a freezer and went right into a fryer. I will not make this mistake again.

Caprese pizza was outstanding! Great array of flavors that will give you cravings to go back again. Also, the Grandma Gorganzola pizza(not pictured) is my go to pizza from Vittorias. So good, and holds up very well when reheating or even cold out of the fridge.

I drive over two hours for this pizza (I make a day of it, not juuuuust for the pizza), and I’d do it again without hesitation. The Grandma’s Gorgonzola is everything, thin airy crust, just the right crisp on the edges, and those big roasted garlic chunks that make the whole thing smell like heaven. The gorgonzola and balsamic are the perfect sweet-and-savory duo.
Even reheated the next morning, it was still ridiculous in the best way. Vittoria’s is completely addictive.
