    Berry Mango Salad special
    Alejandra S.

    The food was surprisingly amazing! It was so yummy, it kept us in a happy mood. Yum! We sat out in the patio. It was a great space with flowers and it's much quieter than inside. The inside doesn't have any sound dampening so it gets quite loud when it's packed. The staff was friendly.

    Good pizza. Wide varieties of pizza. Good prices. Bar on premises. Plenty of seating and parking. Definitely worth a try if you've never been. They have other items on the menu but I still go for just the pizza. It's that good. I'll get around to the other items eventually.

    Oh yeah, was I blown away by this small pizza joint with some big time flavor and character. Coming to this quiet area for work, I sought out a quick bite to eat next to the bank and with this being next door, it was a no brainer. Entering and it's already slowly getting busy with pizzas being made, a deliveries being sent out. Having some time to sit and relax, I decided to grab a slice of shrimp pizza and a chicken bacon ranch pizza to accompany my Dr. Pepper with the local news playing on the flat screen TV. I was able to beat the crowd as all the tables were filled up with different parties and more people in line to place orders and take out. I sat there enjoy my freshly made pizzas that were crunchy yet chewy with depths of flavor and filled with all the proteins. The slices were huge pretty much filling a dinner plate with the two slices. I liked that the toppings for each slice was filled with so many pieces; every bite I had of the shrimp pizza had a shrimp in it which is how it should be while the chicken bacon ranch pizza had crispy chicken cutlet diced with the bacon and a heavy drizzle of ranch. With the employees chatting up with the clients and the whole place being pretty homey, this place is a great place for lunch. Two slices of pizza $6 and a $2 Dr. Pepper...ummmm YES!!

    This is a great place with one of the best pizzas I've had in CT. Wish they would have a location closer to Danbury, but I'm willing to drive for great pizza. Don't understand the so-so reviews of the place. I've only had pizza and grinders, so can't speak about the other items on the menu. They don't skimp on toppings at all. Great crust, sauce and fresh toppings. 43 different pizzas to order from in addition to if you pick your own toppings. That's crazy! The new location is bigger and has more parking. Staff is very friendly and helpful. No complaints, the pizza and grinders has been consistently great.

    Food is ALWAYS good.. service is pretty good too. The inside of the restaurant is really nice. Me and my kid go there sometimes for lunch. He loves the meat ball pizza. I live in town so it's nice to grab a quick bite and support local business.

    Eggplant pizza home town.. they use real dipped Eggplants.. it covers the pie. And cheap and great taste..

    Solid pizza and prompt delivery. Toppings are quite good and generous. Large menu, not at all just for pizza.

    Wait time, lack of seating, prices…read more An hour and 10 minute wait for two small pizzas?! (As long as eating dinner at 3:15 pm on a Friday doesn't bother you...try it.) We drove to New Haven and were eating our pizza in less time at one of the more popular/well-known places. Seating is almost a waste of time. Maybe there's enough seating for 25 people?! You need to get to know the people next to you because you're basically at the same table. Prices are shockingly high for what you get. With the sheer amount of pizza-places within a 2-10 mile radius of Fuoco - you're better off giving another establishment a try. Try Half-Moon in Wallingford. The pizza is delicious, less of a wait time and there's actually room to eat and relax.

    I'm in town on a short business trip and made it a point to check out Fuoco Apizza after seeing it…read morefeatured on Barstool Pizza Review with Dave Portnoy--and I'm really glad I did because he was absolutely spot on. I ordered a large cheese pizza, and it has to be one of the best I've had in a long time. The crust was perfectly crispy with just the right amount of char, not greasy at all, and every bite was packed with flavor. You can really tell they use quality ingredients and put care into every pie they make. It's that kind of pizza where you immediately know you'll be thinking about it later. Honestly, I wish my wife and kids were here to try it with me--they would've loved it. I'm from California, and I can say I haven't had many pizzas back home that compare to this. It's that good. In fact, I ended up coming back a second time before heading home because I just couldn't pass up another chance to have it again. That alone should say everything. On top of the amazing pizza, the employees were friendly and welcoming, and you can tell it's a family-owned business that takes pride in what they do. That kind of atmosphere makes the experience even better. If you're anywhere near the area, I highly recommend stopping by Fuoco Apizza. Whether you heard about it from Barstool or not, it absolutely lives up to the hype. You won't be disappointed.

    4.30.25 Today was an extremely special day here in Union…read moreCity. Those close will understand how special more than others. Stopping here for the first time was a very special treat. This place is one of the self dubbed three kings of pizza from the brothers. Christos, Foucos & here. This was my first visit of many more to come. I will officially be a regular tomorrow afternoon as soon as lunch hits. The service here was very friendly. It's a pretty chill place inside with dozens upon dozens of pizza boxes stacked from the ground to way high up that's hard to reach. I picked up a to go order and it was ready quick quickly. They had it ready for me upon arrival. Moderately average priced. For my maiden voyage i picked up a small cheese pizza, which is always my baseline anytime I'm trying out a pizza place the first time. Also had to try out a meatball parm grinder and a foxon park birch beer soda. Oh yeah, almost forgot. I had to grab a slice of peanut butter pie. I was pretty sure it was love at first sight when I opened the pizza box, but, after I took my first bite i found out I was wrong. It wasn't love at first sight. It was infatuation after my first bite and I fell hard 4.30.25 on this very special great day. The pizza is super thin crust with ample amount of ooey gooey melted delicious cheese and just the right amount of olive oil. Super light nutty mouth gasm. This pizza place knocked it outta the park it was so good. The meatball parm was good. A regular good/average for me that wasn't noteworthy because the pizza seriously overshadowed the grinder. That's how good this pizza was and is. The birch beer sets it off perfectly. Not many places carry the birch beer. Tasty. Can't wait to try something else for lunch tomorrow. If I bump into you, let's share a slice or two together. There's street parking and I'm pretty sure a small lot on the side of the building.

    Order a large cheese for pickup. Got there and they gave my pizza away.no apologies …read more Never again. Person who got mine ordered a Margarita. That's 2 disappointed customers.

    Time to resurrect another review that would have been written in 2025! This time, I re-visited…read moreGiuseppe's. My first visit to this place happened before a meeting in this plaza that lasted about 2.5-3 hours on September 10, 2025. Since I ended up driving on Highland Avenue in Waterbury towards Naugatuck for whatever reason, I decided at that point to make some fruit out of it and come back here, and boy am I glad I did! Today's visit was just as good as the first visit. That says something because during the first visit, there was one person who the order and remarked it was one of their Top 3 pizzas in the state! Honestly, I would not be mad to see this in people's Top 3 pizzas. I grabbed up a white pie with bacon, garlic, and basil (Yes, it is pizza, and if you disagree, then tough). Alongside that, some fried ravioli, garlic bread with cheese, and an order of mozzarella sticks with a Foxon Orange Soda because that's how I like pizzeria meals goddammit! And yes, all of these appetizers ruled! Anything different said will go in one ear and out the other because I ain't hearin' anything different. That ravioli has a nice squeeze after that first bite, crunchy, and the marinara sauce does give it a nice little kick. Garlic bread with cheese is always a winner, and the mozzarella stick is cheesy and delicious. What can I say? Giuseppe's serves up some bangin' out the frame appetizers! And the pizza. Oh the pizza! They make with love and care. One look at my pizza, and you could see how crispy that bacon was. The aroma was SO good that I had to have my first slice before I even started the car to go home. And yes, the pizza was that delicious! I even had my second slice after I parked my car to go home, so a quarter of the pie didn't even make it back to my apartment it was so good. Oh yeah, and while I didn't do it this time, last time I actually had a second person with me who also had a slice of the pizza and they also thought it was delicious. Dine-in or take out you can't go wrong here. Lastly, you can take advantage of some of the specials they have. As of 6/7/2026 (6 7!), Tuesdays and Wednesdays have all-you-can-eat specials if you choose to dine in. Tuesdays you get spaghetti, and Wednesdays it's ziti and garlic bread. On Sundays, you can get a nice lil deal on chicken wings ($1 per wing) and for those it doesn't matter if you dine in or take out. The ziti in particular seems like a great deal because that special is $10.95 (normal menu price is like $22). And speaking of prices, they're very reasonable for 2026. What I got tonight came out to $55.60, and it was a $55.60 that was well-spent. Seriously, this pizzeria is a must-go!

    Have to say I was impressed with Giuseppe's! They're a childhood favorite of my husband's, and I…read morehad only had them once years ago. They had a pretty good flavor, though I think the crust was a bit plain. Could be a good one to order every now and again for a change! Would also like to dine in again sometime.
