Deano's

Been going here for almost 2 years or so when up in CT for the weekends. Glad we found this place because we were looking for slices instead of full pies. The pizza was great and tasted exactly like a lot of my local pizzerias growing up in NYC, where you’d order by saying, “Lemmegettuh peppahroni slice…” and eat on the spot while having random discussions about everything and anything in life. It turned out that the owner is also from the same neighborhood that I grew up in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn!! We chatted it up talking about our times growing up and living in the old ‘hood. Also, I love the New York Rangers decor all over adding to the old school vibe as the owner is also a local HS hockey coach. Great slices, great staff and all around great times when there. My only problem with

I picked up an order of mozzarella sticks. ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Upon opening my order, it was very clear that these were frozen mozzarella sticks, NOTHING like the photo. The food was lukewarm and soggy!!!! I will also mention that the marinara sauce wasn’t closed properly and was instead spilled in a corner of the box. Which is odd, because I didn’t drop, kick or throw the bag, but instead held it just as the man at the counter handed it to me. I was so appalled by its presentation and marinara in the box instead of provided cup, that upon first opening it, I took a half bite, took a pic and trashed it immediately. Waste of $11. It is frustrating because only went there because I it was the first storm of the season and everything was closed in the area. Yeah… no.

Driving from Connecticut to upstate New York, I happened upon Deano's. The first slice was so good, I had to get a second! Cool atmosphere in an old (19th century?) storefront. Great service, great price, great pizza!

The pizza is thin crust New York and when I say it is amazing I mean it is amazing. It's flavorful and doesn't have too much of anything. Perfect pizza. I drive by it all the time and I've been meaning to stop by and I'm glad I did. He told me I wouldn't regret it.

Best pizza around!! Thank you Deano!!
