Joe’s Pizzeria in New Canaan is about the best you can hope for - low key keeping it real but with solid quality on their menu. One of the best things about this place is the different types of pies they offer in addition to the standard NYC style pie you can get Sicilian, Grandma, and Detroit style pies, as well as different cook levels and thin or thick crust.

Highly recommend it, family friendly, great location, and...

The staff (bearded) who made my Pizza first walked away from me as I was going to make order (another staff took order), then he asked "what's up buddy?" carelessly from the kitchen area without even looking at me. Eventually he made my ordered XL cheese pizza pie so carelessly that it shaped almost like a triangle. There was barely any cheese on it, and the crust was hard like rock. Worst pizza I have ever had in my life, and we ended up tossing most of...
