Pazzo

Fantastic family friendly spot with amazing food. The shrimp and grits app was delicious and the grits were like a polenta cake and had great flavor. The pizza was thin with a little char and good crust. Cesar salad had a really good dressing and was very fresh. The Chicken Parmesan had great flavor, nice lightly breaded chicken with spaghetti. Can't wait to go back and try some more.

Get the cauliflower. No… like… you HAVE TO order the cauliflower. I’m no vegetarian or anything, but whatever these guys do to the cauliflower dish they make… I could live off the stuff. Oh, and the pizza is also quite good haha.

Pazzo Pizza is a decent restaurant that serves up tasty pizza in a casual setting. The menu offers a wide range of pizza options to suit every taste bud, from classic Margherita to more adventurous toppings like fig and prosciutto or spicy salami. The pizzas are cooked to perfection with a thin and crispy crust and fresh ingredients. The service at Pazzo Pizza was efficient and friendly. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and made recommendations based on our preferences. They were also attentive to our needs, ensuring that our drinks were refilled promptly and that our food arrived hot and fresh. The atmosphere of the restaurant is relaxed and laid-back, with a modern and minimalist decor. The seating arrangements were comfortable, and the noise level was just right, allowing for easy conversation without being too loud. While we enjoyed the food and the service, we did find the prices at Pazzo Pizza to be slightly higher than average for a pizza restaurant. However, the quality of the food and the overall experience made it worth the extra cost. In summary, Pazzo Pizza is a decent restaurant that serves up delicious pizza in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. While the prices may be slightly higher than other pizza restaurants, the quality of the food and the excellent service make it a worthwhile dining experience.

I finally got a chance to try this restaurant, only a few blocks away from my place. I am sad that they no longer serve the molten chocolate cake (they had it pre-pandemic). Still the food here is amazing. Seeing the oven for pizza with the chefs busy popping the pizza in and out non-stop already told us something. My friend ordered fried cauliflower, which I was not excited about. However, it tastes amazing with a touch of sweet and sourness. I believe from dried berries and some vinaigrette. Pasta with white sauce, shrimp, and beans are tasty. The crispy pizza is brilliant, not too greasy even with added bacon and white sauce base. What I admire about this place is that they can deliver the dishes that I thought will be heavy in a delightfully light way. Pazzo is now an Italian place I can welcome people to San Carlos.

The food is great BUT I have to give a one star review: my wife and I came in, seated and token order for our wines, only after all these we were told “NO PIZZA TONIGHT”. No apologies given, no explanation. I asked why and was told they “run out of dough”. For us we came for the pizza, if we knew this ahead of time when we just came in, we would have gone to another pizza place but now our drinks are served, what can we do?? What’s more disappointing is that for the next 30 minutes, we saw 10+ newly made pizza coming out of the oven and went into delivery boxes. So looks like they are prioritizing online orders? At the end, our check was given to us BEFORE we finished our food.

The only New Haven style pizza place in the bay area. If you have never tried it before, I'd highly recommend the new haven style red pie made in their coal fired oven!

Every time we come here the food is always excellent! We’re so hungry that I forgot to take pics. The salads are amazing! My favorite app is the shrimp and grits, pizza is very good and so is the pasta! We usually do a family dinner and it never disappoints! Staff is always helpful and on top of it. Get there early, they are always busy!

At this pizza joint, mushrooms are a hit, Their salad with it? Just perfectly fit, Meat balls so tender, they melt in your mouth, But patience is key, for a long wait's about. As you sit and wait, your stomach does grumble, But trust me my friend, it's worth the preamble, Their pizza is excellent, with toppings galore, Each bite is a delight, you'll surely want more. Despite the wait, the food is worth staying, Their taste and quality are truly outstanding, So if you're in a rush, this place may not do, But for a leisurely meal, it's well worth the queue.

We took a quick trip to the Bay Area a couple weeks back and met up with our friends who live in Redwood Ciy. We needed a place to get dinner without reservations on a Friday night, and they suggested Pazzo, a New Haven-style pizza joint in San Carlos. The place apparently gets busy, so my husband and I went early and camped out at the bar, enjoying a round of beers while we waited to claim a table. The staff wouldn't seat us far in advance, but we were in there before 5:00 and they said we should be good for another half hour. It turned out we could've walked in whenever we wanted. The dining room filled up while we were there, but never to capacity. The space was comfortable and inviting, built around an impressive pizza oven. We watched the pizzas take shape while we sat at the bar, then moved to a pleasant table that looked out onto the street. The New Haven pride was apparent, with posters and pizza boxes from Sally's, Pepe's, and Modern. There was even a potato pie on the menu, a probable nod to Bar. (I spent a few years in the area and got to know the pizza scene reasonably well.) The vibe was casual but lively, and service was good, helpful and attentive. There was a pretty robust beer and wine list. We went for the beers, mostly localish brews that we don't see in Southern California. I had the Little Beast Hot Break, a dry-hopped sour ale, and the Ghost Town Scaredy Cat, a Brett saison. My husband had the Moonraker Captain Mo pale ale and the Ghost Town Lecherous Haze, a hazy IPA. All nice, and well suited to a pizza dinner. The food was excellent. We started with several non-pizza offerings, and they were all winners. The housemade focaccia was fresh and warm, flecked with herbs and salt and served with an addictive sun-dried tomato spalmare (I guess that's an Italian word for spread). The meatballs al forno were hearty and delicious, bathed in tomato sauce with mozzarella and a side of toasted garlic bread. The crispy cauliflower was a pleasant, unexpected dish, tangy with citrus, almost like orange chicken. The cauliflower was lightly breaded and fried and served with currants, pine nuts, honey, lemon, champagne vinegar, and parmigiano. We also shared one pasta, the lovely, rustic cavatelli with slow-braised pork ragu and pecorino romano. We ordered two pizzas for the four of us and this filled out our substantial meal, with a few slices left over. The pizzas were in the New Haven style, with thin, almost crackery charred crusts. The margherita was classic, a red pie with fresh mozzarella, parmigiano, and basil. The New Haven clam pie took me back to Pepe's, chewy nuggets of clam on a white pizza with pecorino, parsley, mozzarella, and plenty of garlic. This was a fun dinner, with great food and drink in a charming, cozy environment. I'd recommend Pazzo if you're looking for a noteworthy restaurant in this part of the Bay.

Pazzo has been on my to-try list since before the pandemic and we finally made it happen. There aren't many places in the Bay Area that make a clam pie and Pazzo's doesn't disappoint. It was perfect, chock full of finely-chopped clams, pecorino, parsley, and garlic. I honestly could have eaten a whole pie myself. The house made fennel sausage with mushroom was also really tasty. I will definitely be back to try more pizzas! The Caesar salad was a really good one, with dressing that was heavy on the anchovy and garlicky croutons. Yum. And I'm normally not a fan of gnocchi, but Pazzo's ricotta gnocchi was surprisingly light. Like little pillows of delight! And the homemade sauce was so good. Pazzo's pretty much got everything right. The restaurant is small so seating felt a bit cramped. Service was very nice and friendly. Oh, and their prosecco exceeded expectations. It's not as boring as other proseccos. Crisp, fruity, easy to drink. Get the bottle.

I tried Pazzo with a friend last night. It's located in downtown San Carlos. Parking was really easy to find, plus this place didn't require reservations which was great. We came here at 6:40 pm. The restaurant was moderately busy and within 30 mins, it was packed. We ordered a few menu items. I love thin crust pizzas and this is one of the best places I've tried in the Bay Area for it: Roasted shiitake salad 5/5 - it was fresh, delicious and healthy. Dressing was light and flavorful. A must try Crispy cauliflower 4/5 - it was tasty but a bit sweet and a bit moist, not crispy enough for my taste Bianca 4/5 - flavor wise, I think the combination worked. I just think our pizza was a little overcooked, so burnt at the bottom. If it wasn't for that over charred texture, I would rate it a 5 New Haven Tomato Pie 4.5/5 - I liked the flavor, I thought the tartness could've been a bit more balanced Ambiance was nice and cozy. I'll definitely recommend to give this restaurant a try.

Amazing woodburning oven pizzas, All of their pastas and daily specials are spot on. Great restaurant.

Disappointing... not many good pizza places in San Carlos. We chose Pazzo to stay local and not wanting to drive any further for food and we really wanted a wood fire pizza. We ordered online for pick up. Arrived exactly when expected arrival was noted. The pizza was already cold when we picked up. Drove a few miles home (we used an insulated pizza bag to get home). When we got home, the pizza was cold and soggy. We put it in the oven at 400 for 10 mins to reheat, that worked well. The flavor was good, I liked the crust but could have been a bit thicker. Probably won't try Pazzo again, unless we eat at the restaurant for a fresh pizza.

Get the cauliflower. No... like... you HAVE TO order the cauliflower. I'm no vegetarian or anything, but whatever these guys do to the cauliflower dish they make... I could live off the stuff. Oh, and the pizza is also quite good haha.

I have been coming to this restaurant for a very long time and my family has been going to all of their previous locations. The staff are always super nice and the food is always amazing!

Came here on a Thursday evening for dinner and I'm glad we came early (~5:15) because it started to get packed shortly after! We ordered the crispy cauliflower and the New Haven style baby clam pizza. The crispy cauliflower was delicious and I was surprised that I haven't had cauliflower served this way before. It had a nice caramelization and slightly crunchy texture that was light and not heavy at all. It reminded me of maple glazed brussel sprouts which I'm a big fan of. I'm usually not a white sauce pizza kind of person but I was very intrigued by the clam pizza. It was good and I was pleasantly surprised by the abundance of baby clams and how they did not give off an overly seafoody or fishy flavor. After a couple slices though, it did become a little one note for me and I think I might have preferred it without the mozzarella. Service was super friendly and food came out in a decent amount of time, with the pizza piping hot from the wood-fired oven. I'll be back to try their other pizzas soon!

What a wonderful experience! We were in the area for an event and decided on Pazzo for dinner. It was a great choice! The service was excellent and the food... amazing! We ordered the special which was bucattini (my favorite noodle), in this wonderful tomato sauce. I'm so glad they gave me a spoon! We also got rigatoni with sausage and broccolini. Very tasty and 2 pizzas (mushroom with fennel sausage and a pepperoni). Everything came out fresh and hot. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the pizzas were thin and crisp. For dessert, tiramisu! We live about an hour away but would absolutely come back just for dinner. If you are in the area or live nearby, a must stop. You will NOT be disappointed!

The pizza here is as good as I've had anywhere in the country; it's on a par with the best in NYC. And it's on my doorstep; I feel so lucky. I've been in person several times and picked up many times more and never been disappointed.

A solid pizza spot! Good char on the pepperonis (but maybe too much char on the crust) and I can always appreciate the cupped pepperonis. The dough is really well done - some crisp on the surface but has some chew on the inside, good amount of toppings, and the ratios for cheese and sauce were good. It's a solid pizza that I wouldn't mind going to if I'm already nearby.

Hidden gem over in San Carlos making apizza. Apizza is a different style of pizza originating in New Haven, check out some of barstool pizza reviews and you will see that he ranks the New Haven pies as some of the best. Truly one of the best pizzas in the bay area, the crust is really the standout and then the ingredients all taste high quality and great.

Decided to try Pazzo for a birthday celebration and they did not disappoint! The wait wasn't too long considering we came at the peak of dinner time. Once we were sat our server provided quick and helpful service. Answered all of our first timer questions with ease and was always on top of when we needed something. The food was so good! The amount of food we ordered was for 4 people, the appetizers were more filling than anticipated, in result we ended up taking pizza home. The pizza is made in a traditional brick oven, the char adds a great flavor to the pizza. Definitely see ourselves coming back to try the other half of the menu!

The pizza was, in my opinion, the best I've had in the Bay Area. I will recommend this place to friends. Highest recommendation!!!

I've had this place bookmarked for a while now and got to finally try it and I'm glad that I did. Pulling up to the restaurant, it was just down a little street that was mostly only street parking so keep that in mind. Walking in, there were a few tables outside and inside was very quint with not that many tables as well so some nights I can see can be a long wait potentially. Luckily we came on a Thursday night around 530 and was seat right away. One of the first things that you notice is the huge wood fired oven in the kitchen which got me excited for what was to come. We ended up getting: - Beet salad (fresh red/golden beets with argula and almonds. Super refreshing and not bitter from the argula) - Cavatelli with slow braised pork ragu (my wife said this tasted like her grandmother made, can't be a better compliment than that) - New Haven Tomato Pie (This is what I was most excited to try. Never having been to New Haven and it being listed as that, I just had to try it and it did not disappoint. It was light, crispy, good char from the over, the sauce had just the right tang, couple thin slices of garlic and a sprinkle of pecorino on top, it was just delightful) - Housemade Fennel Sausage Pie ( Also a good pie in its own right, I just preferred the Tomato Pie more but if they only had this, I would be satisfied as well) Overall, this place was well worth the drive and would be a great addition to the date night rotation. The only thing that I would nitpick on would be that the dinner itself had a good pace but it seemed like to-go orders were coming up much faster than the dine in orders, at least for pizzas

Very good food in a small little space. Quality: 4 Value: 4 Service: 4 Ambience: 4 This place was fine! Not amazing but not bad at all. Service was a touch slow, and it seats so few people that we had a wait even though it was just two of us arriving fairly early. The pizza was good! A solid margherita. The real star was the fried cauliflower - that was magical, with amazing texture and flavor.

Quick take: thin crust Yummy thin crust pizza. I tried the Housemade Fennel Sausage.

This is the best pizza place in the bay area and it's not even close. The freshness and flavor that the pizzas here have are impossible to come by, and Ive been to tons of other pizza spots.

Incredible. Came here on my birthday after having this place on my list for a while. The inside is quite cute, though a bit loud and cold. The pizzas were delicious (though the crust of one of them was just a tiny bit too burnt). The focaccia appetizer was also A+. BUT. The absolute pièce de résistance most life changing part of the night was the crispy cauliflower. I will be daydreaming about this dish for a long long time and will be taking everyone I know back here for it. Amazing. Don't skip it. The service was also very good! 9.5/10 will absolutely be back.

Visited this DDD destination for a quick dinner before heading to my hotel. Pazzo makes all of their pasta in-house and claims to serve "New Haven"' style, wood-fired pizza. Started with the fried cauliflower and an order of focaccia which were both very good. The focaccia would have been even better if served warm. The tomato spread was a perfect compliment to the focaccia. For a main course, tried the rigatoni with sausage and broccoli. Pasta and sausage both made in house. Pasta cooked to a perfect al dente and the sausage was really nice. Very good dish. Finished the meal with a citrus ricotta cheesecake. Decadent, not too heavy, and great creamy texture with perfect hints of citrus. Service was great as was the atmosphere. Impressive wood fired brick oven. All the right pieces for a quality Italian restaurant!

Good switch from traditional pizza without mozzarella cheese and just pecorino. The dough was paper thin and reminds me of east coast pizza. Only thing is the waiter took forever and had to be flagged down to take my order. Will return to try the pasta!

Pazzo appeared on the Washington Post's nationwide pizzeria survey as the best New Haven-style pizza in northern California. The best pizza I ever had was at Frank Pepe's, one of the iconic pizzerias in New Haven, and while I also had some less outstanding pizzas at Pepe's while I was staying in New Haven, I was looking forward to that charred crust and chewy body. And that's what Pazzo has. It was less than ideal in that the crust, while charred, was a bit soggy except around the edges, so it was hard to eat in the New York way by just picking up a slice, which tended to droop. It was also very greasy and hence messy. (The leftovers, heated up the next day, got crisper in the middle at the expense of getting crunchy around the edges, which was crispier than I wanted.) But that's a quibble. The taste was excellent, and the toppings - I got pepperoni and sausage, because I'm old school, which is why I was seeking out New Haven style in the first place - were big and meaty and had good mouth feel even when bitten into with a big mouthful of crust and cheese. That was excellent. Not having had any idea if parking would be difficult in downtown San Carlos - it was not too hard at 5.30 on Saturday - I didn't order ahead but ordered to go as a walk-in. This was a bit awkward as Pazzo is not designed for take-out walk-in. It's not a counter-top pizzeria but a sit-down restaurant. The friendly staff will take your order at the maitre d' station, but they're busy and simultaneously are helping other incomers to tables, and there's one little chair to sit at. But the pizza took only ten minutes to come out in a sturdy box, and, having already paid, I was off.

We got the white sauce potato pizza and tagliatelle ragu past special. Both the pasta and pizza were delicious, this place is great for a date night!

So good! I'll be back. Was here years ago and glad I returned. Kale salad was amazing and so was the pepperoni pizza. Best crust. Nice a think and light and crispy. Service was great. Go early they don't take reservations and it fills up starting at 6pm.

Absolutely delicious food. The service is fantastic - so attentive, efficient, and enjoyable. Loved it and we will definitely be back. Crispy cauliflower is sooo good! Great portion sizes. Love it all.

My first visit to Pazzo on a Wednesday evening left me pleasantly surprised and satisfied. I had been craving authentic wood-fired pizza, and Pazzo delivered just that. Arriving around 5:30pm, finding parking was a breeze with a few spots available on the street, and seating was abundant. The ambiance was lively, with a TV airing the Warriors game, adding to the casual yet inviting atmosphere. Opting for something new, I tried the New Haven pizza, and it exceeded my expectations. The absence of mozzarella cheese was replaced with a generous amount of zesty tomato sauce and garlic, resulting in a lighter yet flavorful pie that I thoroughly enjoyed. My wife opted for the Margherita pizza, which boasted a really thin and crispy crust--a true delight for any pizza aficionado. We also indulged in a Caesar salad, which had just the right amount of anchovy flavor to elevate the dish. Although we skipped drinks and dessert this time, we're already planning our next visit to indulge in those offerings. Overall, Pazzo delivered a delightful dining experience, and I can't wait to return for more of their delectable pizzas and other menu delights.

This is one of those local places you hear a lot about, have bookmarked, but always forget about when you try to figure out what to eat. I kept hearing about their pizza's and that they are "new haven style". I wasn't really sure what that meant until I came here. It is pretty similar to Napolitano style, where one pizza could be eaten by a single person, but these are slightly bigger, but also they are thinner and more crispy. Napolitano style is really soft, light, and sometimes you have to just use a knife and fork because that dough doesn't have the structure to hold everything up for too long. That's not always the case going place to place in Italy, but there is a lot that you would have to knife/fork it. New Haven style is somehow thinner, but much more crispier. It is actually impressive how well it holds up given it's thinness Sausage Arancini - Pretty good size balls, maybe the size of a baseball and it comes with 3 for $12. Nice crisp outer shell with a beautiful golden color. I was fully expecting it to have a red sauce inside since it says sausage ragu, but ended up being white on the inside. The rice was nice and fluffy, the sauce creamy, and overall had great flavor. I do wish there was more filling, there was barely any sausage, so that was a bit of a disappointing, but the flavor was great. It also came with a green onion aioli which got used up pretty quickly by the table. Homemade fennel sausage pizza - homemade sausage and mushroom pizza. This had such a great color on it. I absolutely loved their pizza sauce and almost wished there was slightly more on it. The sausage had great flavor and everything was cooked perfectly housemade smoked bacon and spinach pizza - This was pretty unique as the bacon I usually have on pizza is thicker cut and/or cubed, but also I've never seen spinach on a pizza. It worked well together, especially with those thin red onions with it. It was a white sauce which was light and didn't give it much of a chance to overpower the rest since they aren't really strong flavors. It was a great balance. Friendly staff, good service, good food, short wait, and worth the trip. I will be back for sure for more pizza and probably try a pasta eventually too which I've heard from friends is really good.

best pizza in the bay area, no competition!!!! everyone run to pazzo, you won't regret it

Maybe the best pizza I've ever had, but nothing on the menu disappoints. The food is great, and you can tell how much effort they put into making sure every dish is crafted perfectly for the customer. The quality control is outstanding as the food is just as amazing every time, and the staff is amazing. Come in and enjoy!!

Solo dining on this Friday night. First time here. Love the vibe. Casual, welcoming, non-pretentious. Food -5/5 - Pizza as heavenly as in Italy! Perfectly charred crust - the right amount of gooey cheese, sauce done right. You can taste the freshness ! Ricotta cheesecake - made in-house. Oh so light and fluffy. Not too sweet. Perfecto. Service - oh wow! The service!!! 10/5! My servers tonight were Nelson and Matt ( maybe Max?) - two fine young men , both so friendly, efficient, and the epitome of what service means - with a smile! - Guys you made my dining experience tonight a most wonderful and memorable one! Grazie! Fantastic food + Superb service staff @ Pazzo. I think I just became the newest fan!

They don't take reservations. Popular place so we had a 30 min wait that was becoming 40 min. It's a small place & it was way too hot outside @ that hour to sit outside. We actually were just about to leave when our table opened up. Food is amazing! We understand why it's so popular! Party of 7 and we basically order something of everything to share family style. Appetizers: Crispy Cauliflower , meatballs . The sauce for the meatballs is amazing! Beet salad - delicious & refreshing! Pastas: shared Cavatelli & the rigatoni dishes and could've had just either of those alone, lol. Pizzas shared: New Haven clam pie (yum!), Eggplants & Peppers (double yum), and Pepperoni. Needless to say we were too stuffed for dessert. . Will go back but need to be more cognizant of time & possible wait.

One of my favorite spots in town for a casual pizza/pasta night. Great beer selection and pizza is top notch. Went with a friend from New Haven and he said the pizza tasted like home. Give this place a try!

Pizza is a solid 4 stars. I think sometimes the toppings can be a bit scant and the crust a little too charred (AKA burnt). The arancini is also pretty good and deserves a solid 4 stars especially with the delicious dip it's served alongside. The absolute star of the show and the sole reason for 5 stars is the cauliflower. I have and will continue to place takeout orders for only the cauliflower. Maybe once I'll even place a double order.

Great pizzas and pastas. They have daily specials, we ordered the one with the seafood and that was very tasty. Usually like to take pictures of the dishes, but was there with a bunch of kids so didn't get a chance before they inhaled them all! :)

This little spot reminds me of some of my favorite places in the northeast. Great pasta, great pizza, and an intimate setting. The clam pie and the cavatelli were phenomenal. We will be back.

Loved this place! there was a ~15 minute wait on Saturday evening. It was popular and rightfully so! We got the meatballs, gnocchi, shrimp pasta, clam pizza, and sausage pizza. everything was delicious and had us wanting more! My favorite pizza was the clam pizza. It was the perfect amount of garlicky, cheesy, and creamy! a must for seafood / white pizza lovers :)

So good. Got their New Haven Tomato Pie and Rigatoni pasta. Taste (5 out of 5): First time having a New Haven style pizza. It's such a simple pizza, but they do it so good. Tomato sauce is bomb, and the crust is cooked to perfection. Rigatoni is also simple. but very tasty. Pasta made in house. Value (4 out of 5): What you would expect from a 'casual' sit down place in the Bay Area. Maybe slightly cheaper? $16 for a decently sized thin crust pizza was very worth it. Service (5 out of 5): Everyone was friendly. They checked up on us a few times. Food came out quick!

Was craving a homey pizza/pasta place and this is definitely that! Food (5/5): Pizza was unexpectedly one of the best I've had in the bay. The crust has been perfected such that it stays crispy as time goes on. We almost always get a meat pie at places, but felt it appropriate to try their simple New Haven style pizza. It was AMAZING and huge! Great bang for your buck. The Tomato sauce was tarte and had the perfect amount of acidity to balance the saltiness from the cheese. Would definitely order again. The rigatoni was made in house (or at least it definitely tasted like it), and had a super simple flavorful sauce. It's been hard to find good pasta in the bay, this hit the spot! Service (4/5): Nothing special about the service but they were attentive enough to refill waters and check up on us every once in a while. We entered close to closing and they were nice enough to accommodate us! Ambiance (5/5): Loved the intimate setting inside. I wouldn't bring a big group of people here as the restaurant doesn't have much seating, but I would 100% bring my family of 4 and my boyfriend for date nights. Looking forward to returning and trying more dishes!

Nice ambiance and attentive staff. We had pizza and really enjoyed it. Would Likely return if in the area again.

This is the best pizza in the Bay Area. It's traditional New Haven style pizza at its finest. We've been a few times, and they were all great (Margherita, Sausage, Clam). And if you need an appetizer, the cauliflower dish was surprisingly fantastic. Just wish they were open more days!

It was okay, service was great tho. I enjoyed the Connecticut sodas. I really don't know what to say about the pizzas. They were okay, not terrible. Just didn't blow me away.

The best pizza around town! I live nearby and I have driven by this small place many times before I read an aritcle which ranked it one of the best pizza's in the country. I had to try and u wasn't disappointed! Pepperoni and added sausage was amazing but it was the sauce and crust that was extra special.

Fantastic New Haven-style pizza. We tried the New Haven Clam and Pepperoni, both delicious and the crust is the star of the show. The homemade cannoli and ricotta cheesecake were both delectable as well. Highly recommend this place to get on your pizza radar. Service was great too.

I feel so lucky to have found this gem of an Italian restaurant. The staff is wonderful - attentive, professional and personal. The food is so authentic and absolutely delicious. Great portions, perfectly balanced and well priced. I cannot wait to go back! I love Pazzo!

Pazzo has been one of our go-to takeout places for pizza and pasta throughout the pandemic. We came in person once a few years ago and immediately wanted to come back with our kids. I am excited for when it's safe to reopen for in-person dining because I'm sure the pizza would taste that much better if I could eat it straight out of their oven instead of driving it home and getting everyone ready to eat. I tend to overorder here - it's hard not to pick out a couple pizzas and pastas, add a (kale) salad and an appetizer or two, and then tack on a cannoli (or two) or piece of tiramisu for dessert. All of the pizzas we've had are great - the kids love the Magherita. I particular enjoy the sweet and salty combination of sweet prawns and salty guanciale (the "White Gulf Prawns" pizza). The crust is perfectly light and chewy, slightly charred from the wood-fired oven. We also really enjoy the pastas, which have great texture and sauces. I always appreciate a nicely prepared spaghetti (and tomato) dish! We order online and the food-is-ready predictions are usually accurate.

Consistency is everything and 2.5 years later, Pazzo is still killing it! We went there last night and I'm so happy they are back to in-room dining. The service here is excellent and the pizza is off the charts good! It's a thin crust, lightly charred and I know this sounds crazy but it's very light. Their pizza is not a gut bomb, it's just plain and simple delicious and fresh. We also have a cannoli for dessert which was outstanding. Oh and can't forget the wine..if you like Riesling, try the Orange Dry Riesling (which isn't dry but slightly sweet). It is delicious. I honestly can't wait to go back here.

I love this place! The ambiance is spot on. It has a cozy welcoming feel. You'd never guess how cute it is inside by the outside. The people are so nice. I've been here a few times and the service is always great. The food is definitely 5 stars as well. Love the pizza, love the pasta, love the apps, & good wines by the glass. Also prices are very reasonable. It gets pretty busy on Friday night though so head there early! Highly recommend.

On a recent trip up to the bay, I was surprised and super exited to find a "New Haven style" pizzeria. I needed me some apizza. The pizza was good, got two pies. But, New Haven style it is not my friends. Place was packed. So hats off to them. Like I said, the pie was good, but a beetz? It was not. Burnt crust yes, but major flop, no crunch, not going to lie, I was kinda sad. Then I got over it and enjoyed. What was I expecting? I was not in New Haven haha.

Thank you, Pazzo, for rescuing me after many tough work days with your delicious Neapolitan-style pizza for our dinner. Coupled with a bottle of good wine, it makes for a perfect relaxing evening at home. We literally moan with delight when eating their house-made-sausage pizza--we add onion and hot peppers. The wood-fire-baked crust has a wonderful flavor and a perfect char. After savoring each bite of a slice, we enjoy dipping the charred crust in EVO. We're also fans of the salads and appetizers--especially the house-made focaccia. They also offer an excellent and always-changing selection of craft beers and wine. Oh yes, we are very grateful to Pazzo!
