Came here to pick up some pizza with my family. We all ordered slices. Can I tell you they are huge! We also got garlic knots and they were huge too. Pizza here tasted good! I got 3 different slices. The veggie special , regular cheese and chicken bacon ranch. None of them disappointed me. I would get pizza here again. They have a Thinner New Haven style pizza and I am a huge fan of that. The Service here was fast , easy and friendly. They even have a Small dine in area too!

My ham and provolone.

Wow, walking in , tables full of customers eating. A menu beyond cold grinders. A place full of tradition. I had a ham and provolone grinder, soft bread full overflowing of lettuce tomato oil . .old school so so good. A place to come back to against

Honestly, I'm not mad about it. I wanted a late night snack and there wasn't much else open in this part of downtown Hartford. Pietro's Pizza came in clutch! Not sure why everyone is hating but the NY style pizza slices were pretty large and you can even see how I split my pizza into two so I even got my monies worth. A bit greasy but that comes with the territory and nothing that some napkins won't fix to dap the extra oil. It was yummy and I finished it in my hotel room afterward. It's pizza. Come on peeps. Yes, more pizza please!

Red Velvet Cake

Stopped by Pietro's for a quick to-go order while walking through downtown Hartford. I grabbed a medium pepperoni pizza, a slice of red velvet cake, and a tiramisu--and overall, I was pleasantly surprised! The pizza was really solid--crispy crust, generous pepperoni, and melty cheese that held up well even after the walk home. The sauce was on the milder side, but it balanced nicely with the salty pepperoni and bubbly cheese. The red velvet cake was soft with a good amount of frosting, and the tiramisu had that classic creamy texture, though I would've liked a little more espresso flavor. Still, both desserts were satisfying. Friendly and efficient. I placed my order at the counter and it was ready in about 15 minutes. Staff was helpful and kept things moving even with a few people ahead of me. No issues at all--just easy and smooth service. Classic no-frills pizza joint--clean, casual, and comfortable. There were a few tables filled when I stopped by, and the vibe felt relaxed. It's not trying to be upscale or trendy, just a solid spot to grab a slice or take something home. Would definitely come back to try one of their specialty pies or maybe even dine in next time. A good spot for dependable pizza and sweet treats in the heart of downtown!

Pietro's Pizza - A Local Favorite That Feels Like Family I've been getting pizza from Pietro's since 2010, and it's been a go-to spot ever since. Their buffalo and downtown slices are personal favorites--perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and always satisfying. One thing that never changes? The mountain of garlic knots by the register that tempts you every time you walk in. They're just as good as they look! The staff is always nice and welcoming, making every visit feel like catching up with family. That feeling was especially clear when they made a giant, delicious lasagna for my great-grandma's 95th birthday--it was a hit with the whole party and showed the care they put into everything they make. Whether you're grabbing a quick slice or catering a special occasion check them out!

Got some pretty decent pizza from here last night. My husband had the pepperoni pie and I had the chicken Alfredo. I liked the Alfredo pizza, but it could have used a bit more cheese. The garlic knots sadly were not good. A bit over cooked and lacking flavor, they definitely needed less time in the oven and garlic.

I was staying in the Residence Inn next door and they recommended the pizza place next door. I figured it would probably be average, an assumption accentuated by the counter service aspect, but I was surprised. Rather simple, but a variety of slices and pies, including styles not normally as popular in a small pizzeria near NYC. The place is really small. I would guess the majority of their patrons don't eat in house. There are only a handful of tables. Not an issue, as there was room. The counter person brought the food out when it was ready and I started chowing down. The food? I tried the Chicago Style. A bit different than I remember Chicago style, but very tasty. Maybe not 100% authentic, but it was a very good slice. For a drink I got a local brew from the cooler and sat and ate pizza.TTT

Great Happy Hour Value with Crispy Pizza and Strong Cocktails…read more Stopped by Sparrow Pizza for Happy Hour on a weeknight with a few co-workers and was impressed by the value. The $7 cocktails were well made, and the sliders and 6-inch personal pizzas were all enjoyable. The pizza had a nicely crisp crust, while the roasted cauliflower was a standout--still juicy, not overcooked, and finished with a drizzle of sriracha. A solid spot for an affordable after-work meal and drinks. Would recommend.

I love it here!!! No, I don't think you understand how much I actually mean that!…read more Like a fool, I waited a couple of years before checking them out but after the first experience I wanted to go back constantly! Whether it's for dinner or happy hour, I am a huge fan of this spot and their perfectly thin crust pies, so this is right up my alley! The toppings and topping combinations are unique and fresh and delicious and I really just can't say enough good things about it. OMG, and if you can possibly save room, I highly recommend the ice cream sandwiches for dessert! Big enough to share, but I didn't. I was greedy and loved every bite. overall service is good and staff are knowledgeable, although it is a popular spot so if they're super busy, you might wait a little bit longer than you want to. There's always music on and it seems trendy where people like to hang out at night also, for the music and the vibe.

One line for take out or dine in. 2 blocks up we see Frank Pepe's, heard it's been a long standing rivalry between the two. The line for franks is also ridiculous, but they have a carry out spot that lets you go in order and just get it fresh out the oven. Got the white clam jawn and the regular cheese, my dawg got their seasonal cheese pizza that had something special going on with the tomato's. Best got damn pizza I've ever had in my life man.

The crust is tough and crunchy with delicious charred flavor from the high heat firing. We tried their tomato pie with mozzarella which I quite liked. It was on the blander side but with the oregano and garlic, was quite palatable. We also got their famous clam pie but we were not terribly impressed. To me it almost tastes like a clam pasta on a pizza. It's basically just what the name implies. I wouldn't go out of my way to get it again but the tomato pie was great. Our service was stellar. The people checked on us frequently and got us all the drinks we wanted. They helped us pack the pizza in foils so we could out the leftovers in our hotel fridge. A word of warning! The pizza is huge!
