    Tried Cowabunga! Pizza Pies in Bridgeport and it's such a fun spot for kids. Huge NY-style slices packed with flavor for around $8-9 a slice. There's only a couple picnic tables outside, so maybe not ideal for big groups, but there's a park nearby which makes it easy with kids. The pizza was really good, the vibe was fun, and my kids loved it. we will definitely be back!

    I ordered a slice each of: 1. Cowabunga Special - pepperoni, sausage, mushroom, red onion, green pepper 2. April O'Neil - Spinach, Garlic, Grilled Chicken, Tomato, Pecorino Romano (White Pie) Who knows how long the slices are sitting in the glass but they reheat the individual slices in the oven so it comes out hot and crispy. Maybe the quality is better if I got a fresh whole pie but regardless, the individual slices were tasty. Slices were floppy, not very crispy, but still nice chew. Toppings are generous and evenly distributed. No issues with service. Limited seating inside.

    20/10 of neighborhood staple that reminds me of the classic NY style pizza that's all ninja turtle fans love! The owner is amazing always doing family activities to bring the community in! You can play board games as you wait or post-meal! If you order online understand this a small business and everything is made from scratch! Want to get a peek into the process? Just step inside to see the chefs in actions flipping, spinning, and spreading pizza love Wed- Sunday! Family faves: Donatello (meat lovers), Cowabunga Special (supreme pizza) , and ofc classic pepperoni! Fun fact you can earn free slices through points! I've had a few and it comes in handy with a house of 5!

    Unique ninja turtle themed pizza shop. A variety of pizzas are available. Tried Chicken BBQ and Cheese. Both were great.

    Hidden Gem Alert! I love checking out local spots that actually live up to the hype--and this Ninja Turtle-themed pizza joint definitely does. I passed by one day and was instantly intrigued, and now I've been back three times. Every visit has been a hit. The customer service is always top-tier--super friendly and welcoming. The place is small, but it's just the right size to grab your food and go. And the pizza? Unique flavors that will not disappoint. A fun, tasty experience every time.

    This is both dine in and takeout. They have several chairs inside as well as tables outside. This is worth going to if you were ever a fan of TMNT or just want a NY style pizza. They have a lot of memorabilia, games (I believe one has to be fixed), and TMNT movie on TV. We got two 20" pizzas, April O'Neil and Casey Jones. The toppings were great and there was a good amount of meat. Customer service was very friendly. My pizzas were finished before the scheduled pick up time. Both pizzas were delicious. Only criticism would be that the crust could be a bit crispier. I prefer less chew.

    Duuuude! This pizza is like totally radical! No bogus pizza here. These guys are just slanging some totally bodacious pies in the 'hood. Make you wanna slap yo mama and yell' Booyakasha" after declaring that its turtle time!! Fun nostalgic little NY slice pizza spot in the hood. Living in the area over 5 years now, I am loving all the cool places pooping up. Loved bringing my daughter here for a mommy/daughter date night to share some pies and little lady talk on their patio on a gorgeous summer night. Bitchin pies, my dudes.

    Great new pizza spot that just opened in Bridgeport, just down the street from Maria's on 31st. It's been a welcome addition to the neighborhood, specializing in NY style slices, to compliment the more traditional Chicago pizza style places that are already in the area. They have a wide variety of topping choices, with various meats and sauces and vegetables on top. I've tried 4 different ones so far, all really good. While the inside is small, it's filled with a ton of 80s/90s nostalgia, from retro video games to VHS tapes to other cool decorations on the walls. The owner is very cool and friendly, and seems like this was definitely a passion project of his to start. The only downside is that it's only open half the week. Hopefully as it grows in popularity it will be open more days. Will definitely become a regular here!

    Pizza is good excellent dough. The only thing is they don't give you any napkins when you take a slice to go.

The Italian beef + giardiniera half was good too, more savory and heavier, but the meat had more of a pulled texture than actual than expected. 7.5/10. The seafood skillet didn't really land for me. It had too much wine flavor and the breadcrumbs got soggy fast. 4/10. Overall, come here for the pizza only. That's what makes this spot worth fighting for reservations.

I'd definitely go back for a pint and to watch the game.

Food reviews: Truffle and mushroom tavern--light and well balanced. Delicate sweet notes from the red onion balance out the earthiness of the mushroom, truffle and charred crust. Cheese doesn't overwhelm the pie and compliments all ingredients with a salty bite Spicy vodka and sausage--so different than the first pie but equally as delicious! Vodka sauce has a deep flavor with only subtle heat. Sausage packs a ton of flavor. Heavier of the two pies since it had more cheese on it but my husband enjoyed Chocolate peanut butter sundae--birthday celebration treat brought by our server! Wow it's a must order. The puppy chow was an insanely smart ingredient to add for texture and bit of chocolate. Can't wait to return to try another specialty pie!
