    The man who managed this place did a better job than the owner is doing. I asked for side of meatballs, waitress who kept staring at me and could not crack a smile once brought me a dish of 4 meatballs with cheese. Then I get charged 8.95 for a meatball grinder with no bread. When I questioned it, the owner said it was a full meal because of the cheese. He couldn't consider reducing the cost and rudely walked away. I can find better service and pizza restaurants elsewhere. Meatballs were frozen and reheated, but they forgot to turn the plate since one was partly cold. Pitiful.

    Great quality food, they cook it once the order is placed and they don’t microwave it. I ordered one customized pizza and it was delicious, exactly my taste. Tried the gyro sandwich on the platter, it was ok, maybe a little more sauce would have been better. Was so hungry and ordered a Bolognese pasta, with meat and tomato sauce, tasted good. The service was relatively fast and the waiter was professional. The only reason that I’m giving 4 stars only, is their bathroom. Dirty, untidy, unkempt floor, smelly, they need to fix it and keep it clean.

    We went here on a saturday afternoon and it wasn't very crowded. We ordered a veggie pizza and a Greek salad pizza and it took almost 25-30 minutes for us to get our pizzas. The veggie pizza was really good. We loved the roasted flavors of the veggies on the pizza. The Greek salad pizza was decent but it could use some more flavoring, definitely the amount black olives need to be reduced. It was way too salty. If you took the black olives out, it was a good pizza.

    My favorite pizza 🍕! They have kept their recipe the same and it tastes fabulous. Pepperoni is my #1 but you must try the buffalo chicken pizza! Very juicy. The server was friendly. I always find the time to come visit them when I am in town. They have been in business for many years and I know why... great food and atmosphere!

    Hands down some of the best pizza I've ever had, visiting from Riverside, California and I can honestly say better than any west cost pizza I have ever had

    A great local pizza spot in Norwalk! I usually pick up the Meat Lover's, and the small size is perfect for a dinner for one. Prices are reasonable, and the staff are friendly as well. I will definitely keep them as my go to pizza spot, and it's great to support local businesses.

    Ordered a salad with shrimp had old green peppers and had tomatoes called restaurant spoke to im guessing the owner who refused to refund the salad if you are selling food and your main item in the salad is bad and someone can get sick you will refuse to refund a little $15 dollars will never eat there again. Sent pictures of Peppers owner is going to say the shrimp cooked it but you can clearly see that the pepper is going bad and was not fresh

    It's a small cozy place. It was pretty busy when we went and had to wait like 20min to be seated. When seated we did have to wait awhile to order because it was only one waitress on. When we did order our food came pretty quick which was great because we had 4 hungry children. The pizza was great and so was my wings. I even ordered some to go!

    Ok greasy new yorkish style pizza. Service was great and very friendly but the pizza was average, not bad but average.

    I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The pizza was perfect - crispy crust, chewy texture, and bold flavors. The pasta was also delicious with perfectly balanced flavors and texture. Prices were reasonable and staff were friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this place - you have to try it and experience the deliciousness for yourself!

    Who would know that a pizza place would have such a great chicken gyro platter with perfect fries, coleslaw, pickle, that I can't finish! Just imagine! Worth a detour off 95 north/south.

    Been coming here for years. Since i was really young. And im about to be 39 now. Personal pizza are then way but hot italian combos will always be my heart.

    Great Pizza. Was a nice treat during lunch break a few years back. Try to get it hot, fresh & crispy. Don't let it stew in a pizza box to get soggy and ruined.

    Wow. Nicest owner and working team. I can’t wait to go back. Gluten free/vegan crust was unbelievable

    I am so glad I listen to my girlfriends and decided to try famous pizza!I was not disappointed! I have not eaten meat in 3 to 4 years so today I decided to have a cheeseburger and a small pie and I went to heaven the cheeseburger was amazing so tender so meaty so juicy oh my God they know what they’re doing! Their pizza is so good and I’m from New York. The best pizza ever! the customer service is impeccable. Thank you Sarah.😊 if you’re in town check them out. Trust me I’m a Taurus ♉️ I know good food!

    My favorite pizza spot in Connecticut. I’ve been in CT my whole life, I’ve visited this spot countless times, they would give my mom a free box of pizza back in the day if it was a spare. I still visit today and it has never changed. This pizza is good when it’s hot, and personally even better when it’s cold. I’ve visited a lot more pizza joints now that I’ve became a bit older and still I decided that I want famous pizza still. It’ll be a cold life once I move out of this town.
