Est Est Est Pizza & Restaurant

If you’re looking for some of the best comfort food in New Haven, you need to visit Est Est Est Pizza & Restaurant 🍕 Let’s start with the star of the show — their bolognese sauce. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s literally the best around. Rich, slow-simmered, perfectly seasoned, and layered with deep, savory flavor… it’s the kind of sauce you think about long after the meal is over. And when you pair it with their garlic knots? Game. Over. Soft, buttery, perfectly golden knots that you won’t want to stop dipping into that incredible sauce. Honestly, order extra — you’ll thank me later. And we have to talk about the cheese pizza. In a city known for pizza, that’s a bold statement — but EST truly has one of the best cheese pizzas in New Haven. The crust is just right, the sauce-to-chee

Such a wonderful family join with great pizza and other food! We highly recommend some of their fan favorites like the crunchy chicken Caesar salad. The cutlet is so crispy and flavorful. The est est pizza is chicken bacon ranch and absolutely delicious! For pastas I really enjoyed their pomodoro. The tomatoes and basil were super fresh and addicting! Highly recommend ordering from them!

Great pizza, with a good amount of cheese and crispy crust. Not too greasy at all. I hear this is the spot for Yalies who don't want to wait around at the Big Three (Moderns, Sally's, Frank Pepe's). Service is quick (5 mins?), but note that they have an $8 minimum for credit card purchases. If you want to get a single slice, you'll need to get a few drinks or pay with cash! Space isn't an issue, they have a couple of tables outside and many inside.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Really enjoyed this pizza store. The buffalo chicken pizza slice stood out—well-seasoned chicken, good sauce balance, and fresh crust. Quick service and great taste. Worth stopping by!

Tried the artichoke slice and the white tomato slice — both were amazing! Great flavor, crispy crust, and perfect for a late-night pizza fix. 🍕
