Ozzy's Apizza

A perfect pizza! I had the basic and it was really good. Beer garden atmosphere was quite a surprise and a pleasant one in a warm day, and tucked away in a residential area and small street, it's a nice touch. Alexis and Jesse were friendly and helpful. They gave me stickers, pictures. I'll be back to get other choices on the menu, the pepperoni one and the extravagant clam one.

My new favorite pizza place. I ordered the “your very own cheese pizza” it was airy and crispy with delicious cheese topping. Also had the “you knead this bread” garlic bread was also crispy and light with topped with lots of garlic and cheese.. both were great, can’t wait to try the other pizza combinations. I enjoyed coming in for dinner and drinks the atmosphere is awesome and so is the staff! Thank you!

Each pizza was cut into six slices, came out hot and crispy! My friends noted that the undercarriage of the cheese pizza was a little disappointing because it was floppy from the tip to the middle of the pizza, but they said maybe it was just an off day because it still tasted fine. My partner and I got the Mikey rabbit and the undercarriage was totally fine with no flop! I personally am not a thin crust person, but the flavors are great. Solid stop to make before heading to the movies or if you just like outdoor dining. Pizza on average is about 20 to 22 dollars, and a couple could for sure finish one pizza be full! The service was great though, and they were so lively and attentive. Would come back again!

Found Ozzy's thanks to Dave's one bite review and recommendation. This pizza is absolutely amazing. This is hands down the best pizza in LA. Personally, I rate it a 9.1. Everything tasted so fresh and can totally taste all the quality ingredients they use. Crispy dough with a good bite. The staff was very nice and welcoming. Outdoor seating was very nice as well. Ended up getting the "The Liotta" and "Your Very Own Cheese Pizza." Liotta had an amazing flavor and lets the sauce shine. The cheese was fresh, hot, and had a little cruch to it. The cheese was our favorite of the night. Can't wait to come back and try the rest.

Been wanting to try this place for a while and I can happily say I had a pleasant experience. The service is incredibly friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed; the whole experience feels like you’re eating pizza in your friend’s backyard. Since I’ve never had New Haven style pizza before, I had to keep it simple with the Liotta. I was surprised with how firm the crust was, it was very crunchy, in a good way, and I liked the flour dusting on it. The thin dough was perfectly speckled with a subtle bite to it. While the dough was great, what really impressed me the sauce. I was able to taste and see every seasoning that went into the red sauce. It is amazing how proper seasoning and fresh ingredients can pack so much flavor into something so simple. Ozzy’s Apizza is definitely worth trying even if you have to drive an hour to get it.

We were excited to try this place because we heard good things about it. We came as a party of 7 and they had more than enough seating for us during lunch time. They were very kind to us from the beginning and recommended us 5 good pizzas. The pizzas were incredible and the atmosphere was amazing. I loved the Mikey pizza and all the pizzas I tried. I cannot recommend this place enough, this is easily my favorite pizza in Glendale!

Amazing experience here at Ozzy's. My boyfriend had been wanting to come here since he saw the review from Dave Portnoy. We loved the cheese and pepperoni pizza. It was a good atmosphere with the outdoor patio seating. Very friendly and good customer service.

If you want abeetz in Los Angeles, this is the place to go! The staff and everyone there is high energy and very friendly. Clearly they understand and hav a passion for the style of pizza made in the New Haven area and produce fine pies in a wood burning oven. Like it charred the way pizza ought to be? Then thi: is the place that will satisfy your slightly scotched gluten needs! I'm planning on trying the clam pie next time I'm in. Looking forward to reporting back to my CT ex-pats The place itself is very relaxed, and you can park yourself in the middle of it, or in the nooks and crannies of this outdoor, enclosed venue, Have a good time and tell them, "Jimmy the Gut" sent you. Abbondanza! Pro Tip: NH pizza is scorched (burnt)! You should ask for light scorch for your 1st go round or you may regret it!

Best pizza in Los Angeles I'm from New England and this is the best pizza I've had outside of Boston

went there with a group of seven and absolutely wonderful experience, customer service was great and, the main the was the food which was honestly the best pizza ive ever had.

Ozzy's is easily among the best pizzas in LA. Recommended by Dave Portnoy, Ozzy's offers delicious, authentic New Haven style pizza with great vibes at a competitive price. Constructing an East Coast pizza is like making an airplane. Too heavy will give you structure, but lacks the crisp crust that makes a good pizza fly. Too light and the whole thing falls in a disappointing flop. If Dominos is made from steel, Ozzy's is made from aluminum, and the product soars. Truly, Ozzy's Apizza is one of the greatest crusts I've ever had in a pizza. Our family ordered the Mikey Rabbit ($22), a ricotta cream sauce, mozzarella, pecorino, spinach, and garlic pizza which was rich, creamy, and topped by delicious homemade Italian sausage. I'm normally not one for white pizzas, but this delectable treat, thanks to its crisp crust, remained light and satisfying. Following was the Mega Powers ($24) a veggie and garlic delight my partner adored. After that was the superbly summarized Swanson ($22), with bacon, sausage, pepperoni, and, I recommend, an added drizzle of hot honey ($2). While the crust struggled to hold the mass of this mountain of meat, the rich and savory favor was unparalleled. The service was friendly and effusive. The staff picked up the phone and answered my questions before we arrived, the staff friendly and relaxed, and they guided me through the inKind promotion ($25 off for $75+ purchase). The vibes are spectacular for the location. Hidden on Arden Ave in North Glendale, just south of the canal, there is a generous patio sitting area, separate bar, private seating area in the back, clean bathrooms, and trendy (but not too loud) music. The eponymous Chihuahua also wins points in my book. The value is a surprising treat. The pizza quality is excellent and the prices very reasonable for what you get. Pizzas are 14" and range from $18-$22. Each pie is enough for one hungry or two peckish individuals, or a price tag of $15-20/person. For the quality provided and superb crust, this is a great value. Excellent ingredients, great service, personality, value, and a phenomenal crust, Ozzy's is some of the best Pizza in LA, and well worth a detour. Give them a visit, and come back again - I know I will. Food: 5/5 Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance/Facility: 5/5 Value: 4.5/5

We were the first to arrive, & the staff was very welcoming. They brought us a sanitized water bowl for our dog. The patio is very spacious; however, the tables are crammed together. You order your food at the counter, & you get a number. There is also a bar from which you order your beverages separately from your food. There is a water station for self service. As for food, we tried You're Welcome aka clam pizza. The pizza is thin & crispy. Wish there were more clams. We also had You Knead This Bread aka garlic cheese bread which was delicious. House Salad was fresh & good for sharing. It's located in a residential area. We parked on the street, & it didn't seem too hectic. We recommend Ozzy's.

As always, another IG reel lead me to a new place to try out. No surprise where I found this place. Ozzy's Apizza is located in Glendale. The atmosphere is very cute for a date night with its outdoor seating. It's also pet friendly as well. I went here on Saturday and luckily was able to find street parking. My friend and I ordered 3 pizzas. We ordered the liotta, pepperoni idiot and the zupp. I'm usually a toppings for pizza kind of gal but my favorite was the Liotta. Who would have thought a simple pizza would be my favorite. The tomato sauce goes so well with the pizza, it's so flavorful. The crust is also thin so I can eat more slices and I don't feel as guilty hahaha. The only thing that I wished it had more was the cheese. The pepperoni idiot and zupp were both really delicious as well. The service is friendly and it's a good place to hangout with friends or take a date to. I will be coming back to try out more pizzas.

Had dinner with the family Sunday evening. What a nice surprise to find this place in Glendale. We had no idea there was a pizza place here. My son found it on IG and we gave it a try. I loved the whole outdoor seating patios. So nice to chill with family or friends. Also the bar was really cool with variety of cold beer and wine. We ordered a six pizzas and couple of caesar salads. The Liotta was everyone's favorite. The sauce was really good, my favorite was the pepperoni idiot. The white rabbit was ok. Each pizza costs over $20. Customer service was ok, could have been better. Overall the ambiance is great specially for families dining out with kids.

I was in the area and wanted to try this place for a while so it was a perfect time to go. Placed my order to go over the phone. Pizza was ready when promised. I got a cheese pizza. Walked in a saw a beautiful outdoor space filled with plenty of tables, greenery, and a bar. Really nice! Walked up to the counter and my pizza was ready. The people behind the counter were really nice! Friendly! I paid and walked to a table to have a slice before I left on my 30+ min drive back to the valley. My pizza was good. Not mind blowing, but good. The cheese was good, sauce good, and crust good. Would I go out of my way to come here...not sure ??? Worth a try though. And I'm glad I did.

This place has an excellent pizza. One of the best pies I have had. The crust is amazing. Every bite was so tasty. I had the pepperoni pizza but there are other toppings that I want to come back and taste. They have a bar on the side and you can pretty much have whatever cocktails you would like. I had an old fashioned and it was perfect. There is no inside seating. It's all outside and there are plenty of seats. Especially for big parties. Service was great. Friendly and helpful.

Owner operated. Very cute table and umbrellas, almost an island vibe. Great menu with many choices and a separate beverage station. We ordered the liotta pizza without Parmesan (I have an allergy)- it was tasty. Thin crust, homemade red sauce, and just the right amount of olive oil. It's a very friendly laid-back place for a family or a date. We sat near a very quiet table with a dog and another with the baby and everyone was just chill. Will definitely be going back, especially since another one is opening in our neighborhood in October.

This was my first time trying New Haven style pizza, and I'm not really a fan of the texture and thickness of the crust. We ordered " the very own cheese pizza" and a couple drinks. The patio seating is nice and relaxing and all the workers were friendly. You go up to the counter and place your order , then free to grab a seat wherever you like. There is a bar/drink stand in the patio where you place your drink order, so you basically are required to make two separate transactions. You can't order drinks at the same cashier you order pizza. . The pizza came out quickly and piping hot. The crust was thin and crispy, like biting a cracker, which I'm not a fan of., and the pizza was just too saucy for my taste. It was nice trying a new style of pizza, and I respect the craft. Another con for me was the parking situation. It's street parking only, which was a headache finding a spot . There is a lot across the street that charges a flat rate of $10 , if you don't mind going that route Pizza prices are in $20's , which is reasonable for the size .

This is one of the best non-Neapolitan pizzas I've ever had. I LOVED the consistency of the crust-- thin but still with a little bite to it and extremely flavorful. The pizzas themselves were delicious altogether. The service was very friendly; chill vibes. It's a nice place to hang out and eat in a spread out patio area that's covered and has some ceiling fans. I would absolutely come here again.

A friend suggested this place since it was one of Dave Portnoy's recommended pizza spots. The service was just about standard and the seating is all outdoors. Parking is very limited since it shares with residential complexes along the street, so be ready for a hunt during busy times. I'm not sure if it was because we were hot and hungry, but pizza itself was good. We got the Mikey Rabbit (which was my favorite), Bada Bing, and You're Welcome. While the combination of toppings were flavorful, there was just too much crust on it. Overall, I'd come back if I was in the area.

Came here when the weather was like the surface of the sun, but it could detract from how yummy this pizza is. Think New York style pizza, but much much thinner, and much crispier...but most importantly, it still had some chew to it. This was our first time trying it and for some reason we thought it was going to be more similar to bar style pizza from Chicago - thin like a cracker - but it was delicious and different than what we thought. Come here and try it! It's definitely a must try for any pizza lover.

Lovely outdoor patio with great pizza! This is a really great addition to the neighborhood. There's a bar too so you can get some pie and a drink and relax in the shade.

Don't sleep in the liotta's pizza. It's different, but bomb. There's only outdoor seating, but plenty of room for large parties. They have decent restrooms and their service is good.

Hell Yes! New Haven Style in LA! I've been eying this place for Apizza since the chef was slinging pies from his place, and finally got the chance to come thru. To start off I think some people dont really know what New Haven style pizza is. Its a thin crust with a nice crunch yet still chewy! Grabbed a Pepperoni Idiot, and the sauce was a nice savory leaning red sauce with really good cheese and peps. The crust itself was so good! This is what sets apizza from the others. A little life hack might be that you should put your order in before you get there because when we showed up there was a 90 minute wait because they got bombarded with door dash orders, but the workers there were so cool and chill. The space is shared with I think the arden club or something where they offer beer wine and liquor, so you can get your drink on here. Its an outdoor space with lots of covered seats. Definitely will be back again! The apizza here is top notch!

We heard that this place had some really good pizza and we had to try it out!! And yes, their pizza was solid! We just had a half and half version of their cheese pizza and pepperoni pizza so that we can try their basics, but not necessarily their signatures! It's a little on the smaller side and the pizzas themselves are pretty thin, so you may or may not want to eat multiple in case you are hungry! It also takes some time! We want to try more different pizzas they sell here in the future since we only tried their basic flavors! This is a nice spot to eat outdoors because there's lots of seating and there's even a bar. There's no parking lot so you have to street park!

Talk about a place that's hidden in plain site; even when I was driving by and standing right in front it of it, I wasn't sure it was the right spot. So, if you don't see it, just walk into the hedges and you're there! I would've never heard (or seen) this place had it not been for my friend who'd seen it on a show he follows. As for New Haven style 'aPizza', even after trying it, I couldn't describe it any different than oven-fired pizza. It's very good, light and not filling, so you can actually polish an entire pie no problem. I couldn't pick it out of a police line-up next to any other wood-fired pizza vs coal-fired pizza though. The patio layout is nice and peaceful with a very relaxing ambience and it's big enough space to host a massive party if you desired. The "landscaping" and canopies/cabana's provide and very nice outdoor environment.

Calm and relaxed atmosphere to enjoy a nice slice of pizza and a glass of wine on a patio. The perfect California weather, soft music and an urban oasis makes for a perfect lunch spot. Great spot if you had a large party, first date, or family meal. It is an outdoor space only with plenty of covered patios. Lush potted plants cover the patio. We got the liotta and pepperoni idiot. Both had a nice crust, very little oil and delicious taste in the pepperoni. I personally wouldn't get the liotta again, perhaps it will be will suited for kids. Definitely worth a stop to try the pepperoni. It's peaceful here and delicious. Lastly I can appreciate the support they show for breast cancer patients on their shirts and napkins. As a cancer survivor it's nice to see support at local businesses.

After seeing Dave Portnoy give Ozzy's Apizza a decent score, I had to try it myself, and it did not disappoint. I went for the New Haven style, and it was amazing--even without the cheese, the sauce alone was fantastic. I can only imagine how good it would be with cheese and other toppings. The staff here are super nice and helpful, making the experience even better. The ambiance is great, with plenty of outdoor seating. Five stars all the way--highly recommend!

The newest Ozzy's Apizza East on Nicholls Ave in New Haven has excellent New Haven style pizza!! Several options are available including vegan and gluten free!

One bite everybody knows the rules... Came here on a Sunday night, streetside parking was easy to find. Very nice decor and atmosphere in the outdoor eating area. I ordered the pepperoni pizza. A good pizza is one that is thin, well done, crusty and charcoaled. This pizza had all that. There were a couple slices in my pizza though that was a little too well done, so much so that the crust was way too tough to bite through. But the majority of the slices were cooked just right. One way you can tell a pizza is great is by seeing the charcoal bubbles on it and this one had that. Typically the best pizza places are in NJ, NY and CT but this place is pretty close to New Haven (CT) style as it suggests. Friendly staff as well.

5 stars! Awesome New Haven style pizza! Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. And my wife loved the Vegan cheese pizza. Highly recommend!

Each pizza was cut into six slices, came out hot and crispy! My friends noted that the undercarriage of the cheese pizza was a little disappointing because it was floppy from the tip to the middle of the pizza, but they said maybe it was just an off day because it still tasted fine. My partner and I got the Mikey rabbit and the undercarriage was totally fine with no flop! I personally am not a thin crust person, but the flavors are great. Solid stop to make before heading to the movies or if you just like outdoor dining. Pizza on average is about 20 to 22 dollars, and a couple could for sure finish one pizza be full! The service was great though, and they were so lively and attentive. Would come back again!

This place was Amazing! Delicious pizza and perfectly balanced Moscow Mules. The ice sandwich dessert is expensive and worth every penny. Place is adorable with a huge gorgeous patio. Everyone was friendly and helpful.

Great location. Very friendly people. Great with kids. Dave did a review of this place. Came to check it out and love it. Large outdoor shaded area. Calm and peaceful sitting spaces. Food is great and you get a full bar. Great spot for families gatherings and even with friends.

After spending many of my young adult years in Connecticut and consuming many (maybe too many) pizzas from New Haven, I know a good "apizza" when I taste it. I've participated in many lively discussions debating the best New Haven pizza...Pepe's, Sally's, Modern...the debate rages on but the general compromise is that they each have something unique in their recipes that make them "the greats". After moving to LA, I was thrilled to learn about Ozzy's, a fun outdoor pizzeria in Glendale serving New Haven style pizza made by some native New Havers. Browsing through their menu got me a little nostalgic and I was excited to give it a try. I definitely don't remember sitting outside eating apizza on a warm Sunny February day while living in New Haven. That's something unique to LA for sure. The experience at Ozzy's was great, the venue was fun, and service was chill and low-key. The pizza was definitely New-Haven style, with its thin crust. It was crispy on the outside but the dough didn't have that same charred coal-fire taste that I was expecting. (I could be wrong, but I think this can only be accomplished with the use of a coal brick oven, which aren't made anymore.) Either way. when in LA and craving New Haven-esque pizza, Ozzy's is the place to go.

4++ New Haven style "ah-beetz" available here in Los Angeles. Sans that coal-fired brick oven, of course. Came here recently to what I think is there permanent location (2/2024). Really nice outdoor garden/ courtyard where you order the pizza and are able to eat at. Full bar available. Came here with someone who went to school in New Haven so I thought it would be fun with the additional insight. Personally, I was out in New Haven once for work and actually had a clam apizza from Modern Apizza, but it was so long ago, so my palate and exp for apizza is limited. You walk into the courtyard and walk towards the back where you order from some very friendly people. We ended up getting the Liotta (the one I really wanted) and The Bada Bing. I also ordered one of the cookies. There was a separate station where you order the wine/ beer/ liquor. We got some wine and we were ready to rock and roll! The pizza is really tasty. Nice crisp on both. I loved the simplicity of the Liotta and I do like a great red sauce. I also felt like I was eating healthier, haha. But the sauce was super flavorful. The Bada Bing was more conventional in what probably most people would think is pizza. The combination of toppings was also delicious on this pizza. Nice earthiness from the mushrooms and red onions and great salty, savory-ness from the pepperoni and salami. There are other pizzas I would love to try, but my stomach is only so big. Also, I love the setting. It almost feels like you're eating in Napa Valley or something. So...consider me influenced... yeah, like many others I saw the one bite clip, but honestly, I've had this bookmarked for a while and wanted to go when they were still doing pop-ups. Actually, I think Chris W. was hanging out and talking to the owner of Little Dynamite when I was having a slice on the west side when Little Dynamite first opened their Culver location. Listening them talk about pizza made me want to try Ozzy's even more. Maybe the one bite clip lit a fire under my behind since I thought it might make the wait crazy so wanted to come here ASAP. Definitely want to come back to try other pizzas and it's a great spot to grab a bite with friends in general. Parking was easy at the time. Found street parking pretty much right away.

Just go here. Whichever pizza you're in the mood for, get that one. Crunchy, great ingredients, you can't really miss here. The classic cheese or pepperoni are my favorites, and the place is a cool area to sit and chat. Truly a great addition to Glendale and easily a top 3 pizza spot in the area. I wouldn't get the Liotta pizza again just because it was a bit overwhelming for me (lot of sauce, no cheese), but if you're into that type of pie, it's delicious. Tasty sauce and crunchy, high quality dough.

I've had this place on my "to try" list for ages, following them on IG for quite some time. I finally routed myself heading home from Upland to the Westside and made it a point to stop. Hit the sweet spot of mid-day / mid-week right before a storm and there was no wait. The guys working were awesome and friendly. I'm happy for them for their success. The covered patio is a great California ambiance. I see warm summer nights with twinkly lights being great here. Street parking was easy at the time, but could possibly be challenging on the weekend. I ordered a Liotta and Pepperoni Idiot. Today was the day that I learned that I personally am not a fan of a plain, New Haven red sauce pie (Liotta). I need cheese, and lots of it. That doesn't mean you won't like it, it's just not for me. The crust was nice and crispy, but the rest of the pizza was not. When I picked up a slice all of the sauce slid right off due to serious flop and I was left with limp pizza dough. I would have liked the entire pizza to be well done and crispy. The Pepperoni Idiot was definitely more my style and was good. You can tell they use fresh, quality ingredients. Will I be back? I would like to try the cheese pizza everyone is raving about. If I can route myself to pass by again at some point I will, but I'm not specifically driving to Glendale for it.

I was watching one bite not too long ago and noticed that Ozzys is literally in my backyard. Quickly I told my fiance we have to come here and try their pizza! Let me start by saying I love supporting small business. Even more so the people that were working/owners were beyond friendly. I brought my two dogs and the staff were super friendly and gave them treats. The lady that took our order was super friendly and recommended us their top 4 pizzas. The food did not disappoint! As I'm writing this I'm contemplating stealing my finances slice. The ambiance here is super nice and chill; we came on Valentine Day and there was plenty of seating and I know this place gets packed on the weekend. Honestly; my favorite restaurant/business in LA and I hope they continue to be the best for many years to come. I also forgot to mention this place is one of the top 5 pizza places in Los Angeles. Overall; come here bring your family, friends, partners and enjoy some proper pizza. Parking: there is a small lot across and plenty of street o parking.

Ozzy's is great pizza! We love it and the service is great. We were so surprised when we called today and the wait was only 30 mins vs the last few times we have ordered and the wait was 2+ hours. The new oven likely made a huge difference! We did however notice the pepperoni idiot tasted quite a bit different than last time and was curious if it was the new oven? Not sure. But still great, it was just better last time, the Mikey rabbit pizza is phenomenal !! Light and airy dough with a delicious cheesy sauce. Not too filling or overwhelming. Perfectly crisp. The location was not very busy but I am sure the rain had something to do with that. Beautiful outdoor patio with string lighting. I'm sure it's a great place to sit but we go our pies to go! Everyone enjoyed Ellie, the Ozzy impersonator - haha.

Wow this place is amazing! Ordered the bada bing pizza! The taste is excellent, and very crispy and one of the best pizzas I've had in LA! Great work! I'll be back for sure!

It's not New Haven style pizza. Not even close. For LA it's about average. Really disappointed, no char, tasted average. There's better pizza out there.

Sauce is the boss here, pretty unreal with the zest and tang. Plenty of it and so delicious. Could definitely see myself eating the OG (no cheese) and loving it. Crust was thin and crispy, loved a little olive oil flowing. Pizza looks pretty big but I ate it really quickly bc it was so delicious. I could see myself doing this once or twice a week if a lunch special came on board ;) also beautiful outdoor seating area and super friendly staff!

Do yourself a favor and try Ozzy's Apizza! I think it's a pretty new Glendale hidden gem for yummy pizza, good service, and nice ambiance. It was my first time having New Haven style "apizza", and it's a really thin and crispy type of pizza (crispier than NY style). The place may be a little confusing to find at first from a map because it looks like it's located behind a building. You enter a side gate on the east side of The Glen Arden Club building into this large patio space, and then you walk towards the back to find Ozzy's (there's a table with their banner on it to order at and the pizza oven is right behind it). All the seating is outdoors on the patio under string lights, but they have heat lamps next to each table for chillier weather. Service was really good and everyone was really nice. We ordered the You're Welcome because I had heard about their clam pizza--they originally told us they were sold out, but the owner said he had just enough ingredients to make one more. The apizza took about 30 minutes to be ready because they had to heat up their oven again, and it came nice and hot. It was a nice light combination of garlic, clams, and cheese and paired nicely with the wedge of lemon squeezed on top. The dough was light and crispy throughout from the middle to the edge. I would probably recommend getting one apizza per person if you want to be full, just because they're not that big and they're thin. Will definitely be back to try a red sauce apizza next time!

Liotta was my favorite and honestly I love the crust. We fought over the last piece. Got the cheese as well, good ole classic handmade pizza.

Loved the LA pizza joint, thoroughly enjoyed the white rabbit and the ingredients embedded on this great slice of pie Love the outdoor scene and eating set up don't forget to get a glass of coke . Excellent service at the bar and bus runner that took care of our mess

I've waited 1hr and 20min this pizza. Overall, this will be my first time and will be the last time... wasn't worth 1hr+.... I was very very disappointed. I give B- grade

Pro tip: add double clams on the You're Welcome! Omg yes! Love seeing how consistent their food is. Service is always impeccable. Really great place to relax with the breeze in your hair and a slice in your hand!

Enjoyed it but the pies were not done enough to be really "New Haven" style. They were also kind of small. I'd rate the pizza flavor 7/10. Sauce and flavor was excellent but I would have been happier with a bit more char.

Ended up at Ozzy's Apizza this past Friday night for dinner and it did not disappoint. Admittedly, I had never heard of "New Haven-style pizza" before, but the pictures looked great. So, I was excited to give it a try. I'll note that this place actually doesn't have an indoor area with TVs despite what some of the pictures might suggest, however, you're able to bring your pizza over to Glen Arden Club next door to enjoy. We partially chose this restaurant because we wanted to catch a basketball game, so this was a bit of a surprise when we arrived. We ended up enjoying our pizza and a beer in their outdoor seating area before walking over to Glen Arden Club to watch the game. Service was impeccable and the ambiance was nice. I highly recommend The Liotta ($18)!

I'm not from New Haven, nor have ever visited, but have been fascinated immensely by their pizza through stories I've heard from friends and YouTube. When I finally got to try Ozzy's it was when they were at Underdogs, which has since closed. The first thing I noticed was how friendly and fun the owners and chefs were. They were a blast to talk to and their personalities shine through their IG stories and pasta, but I was blown away by the pizza. On first glance you think is this pizza burnt? The char that kisses the crust and its blistered dark complexion are misleading... it's not burnt. In fact, it's perfectly cooked. It's chewy and crunchy allowing for a myriad of complexity. It has flavor. It's not a throw away taste overshadowed by the fresh and flavorful sauce and toppings no, this crust has some salty and mildly sweet notes. The Swanson is a beast. Worthy of the fictional character's name. Pork on pork from bacon, homemade Italian sausage, and crisp & chewy pepperoni cups. I indulged as added on mushrooms and hot honey which further elevated the myriad of complexity this pizza brings that is similar to that of a New Englander cheering on their local sports teams. It's in your face and bold, but unlike the sports fans you enjoy this company. Truly blown away by this place, and there's plenty of street parking. The residency also offers access to the event venue's bar with many beers on tap! Kudos to this team and hope you all try.

Really nice outside patio setting with fans and lights. Everyone here is friendly especially Ozzy himself! I loved having a pro wrestling themed discussion with him. Then I saw the shirts. It was worth the drive. The apizza was excellent. Crispy and light. Doesn't make you feel gross and full. We will be back!

I lived in CT for some time. Oh I missed the new heaven style pizza!! The thin crust!! This place is so on point! I loved my Mikey Rabbit Pizza. Definitely will come back. Their seatings are all outdoor, but there's heating

Usually I've never had a problem with this place. It's been my favorite pizza place for a while now and I've sworn by it to everyone. The past two times I have been there though have been a bit disappointing. One of the things I always ask for when ordering is to make them "nice and extra crispy". One of the guys made the comment that all of our pizza is crispy, which it usually is the case, but was far from it this and last times visit. The reason I gave them an extra star is because they offered to remake it but I didn't have the time to wait for another. The only reason I gave them a low rating, even though it has been my favorite pizza place, is because this has happened with back to back visits. Another staff said I should of asked for it to be crispy, which I always do so it's more of a disappointment since my expectations are high being it was one of my favorites. Overall I love this place, but just have had two disappointing experiences. Hopefully you guys just have new staff and they messed up in training

AMAZINGGGGG!!! I love everything about Ozzy's! From the pizza, to the environment, to the staff - everything is amazing! We walked in to try one or two pizzas and left with five boxes! The plain cheese ended up being my favorite, but you can't go wrong with anything you choose here!

My only apizza, so nothing to compare it to, but i can say I really enjoyed it. Very nice flavor and crisp.

The good: great ambiance, friendly staff, reasonable price, delicious thin crust, easy parking The not so good: I ordered the Liotta because I love a good red sauce, but the sauce was a total letdown. It was loaded with WAY too much oregano. Is that how they do it in New Haven? I hope not. I wish they would swap out the oregano for garlic and basil, because then the pizza would be fire. I think people would love it, but hey, what do I know?
