I will never regret stepping foot into this delicious spot. At this very moment I'm still thinking about that savory and spicy onion roll. I definitely should have bought way more for home! I grabbed an assortment of items from sweet to savory. Everything was excellent. There were so many more items that I will need to get back to try. This isn't just a quick stop, but a destination. You won't regret this stop! read more

Ok so the place is lovely - nice seating areas. However there are NO PRICES LISTED SO THEY CAN CHARGE WHATEVER THEY WANT- and they did. And the receipt wouldn't print, surprisingly, so they said they would text it to me. I didn't get that either. And the cashier was a bit snippy - so we did not have a good first impression. Hospitality was a level 1. Sorry read more

Ricotta is a Kosher Pizza and bakery. It's a small restaurant that sells pizza, bakery goods, Israeli breakfast, Israeli foods, Shakshuka, and other Israeli foods. On my way home out of New Haven I decided to stop by. The store was about to close in a hour so they didn't have as much pastries out but I will come back for another visit. The store was small and very clean. My daughter got a Chocolate Rugalach and she said it tasted pretty good. The staff were really welcoming and I would definitely have to come back to taste the Israeli food. read more

The food is great but every time I order pickup (I order a few hours in advance) they never have it ready in time. Always ~15 min delay...

Excellent downtown spot. The calzones are delicious. Big fan of the shakshuka, too! There's also an inviting, cultural and community-based feel to the environment. read more

This place is amazing!! The personal sized pizza pie is great, the crust was not burnt, the sauce was very good too! Really cute seating area too. And great service! The person that helped me was super sweet and answered all my questions. Definitely will be back soon! read more

Ricotta is a kosher pizzeria and bakery that opened in New Haven, Connecticut in September 2022. It was founded by Israeli-born restaurateurs Yaakov Atia and Nadav Adad. After dropping out of high school at age 14, Adad began pursuing a career in the culinary arts and owned his own restaurant by the time he was 17. He now has over 20 years of cooking experience and opened several restaurants in the northeast including a pizza shop in Lakewood, NJ as well as the Brooklyn-based restaurants Ess & Bentch and Albany Bagel. Although Adad lived in NYC for quite some time, Atia has spent the last several years living in New Haven. The new venture between the two was named "Ricotta" after the Italian cheese byproduct. In keeping with Jewish dietary laws prohibiting the mixing of meat and dairy, the two decided to make the menu strictly vegetarian. In addition to offering Kosher food, the partners also had a goal to make the food healthy. I recently stopped at Ricotta just two weeks after they opened to the public. My son's daycare was having a picnic and I wanted to grab some food for takeout. Although I don't keep Kosher, I am Jewish and enjoy supporting local businesses and fellow Jews. After walking in, I was met by Atia who was manning the cash register. He later introduced me to Adad who was busy working in the kitchen. Both partners were very friendly and appreciative that I came down to check out their new venture. There were several delicious-looking baked goods on display including baguettes, frena bread, croissants, halva, rugelach, and different flavors of babka. After looking over the menu, I decided to order a Plain Cheese Pizza and an order of Falafel Balls served with Tahini. They also offer Bagels, Israeli Breakfast staples, Lasagna, Eggplant Parmesan, Shakshuka, Salads, Wraps, Pitas, Hummus Plates, and appetizers. My son and I both enjoyed the food later at the picnic. The next time I stop in at Ricotta, I want to try some of their delicious-looking Garlic Knots! read more

Food wasn't my favorite, the sushi should be much better for the price and the pizza wasn't very good, unless you only eat kosher probably wouldn't recommend read more

I was really pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food here. I don't think it's totally on par with the major players in the New Haven market, but it's definitely very good. The service was also very friendly, and the food was ready quickly. I would not hesitate to order again. I would probably give the food alone four stars, but the fact that it is Kosher I think fits it into a slightly different category and warrants an extra star for convenience, inclusivity, and contributing to the variety of options in the area. read more

Absolutely disgusting behaviour from the manager, had to wait 2 hours for a single piece of salmon. The manager offered me a piece of disgusting malawach as compensation. Stay away unless you want to deal with a dreadful service. Never coming back. read more

No such thing as Israeli food. False advertisement. Hummus is not from Israel. It's an Arabic word the literally means chickpeas. You can't even make it right! Shakshouka ? Really ? Do you even know what it means? Worse I ever had read more

So glad this place opened in the area, and I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious food actually is! Will be coming back.

Just tried this new bakery for the first time and oh gosh am I a happy customer! Their Halva Croissant is one of the most amazing pastries I've ever had! The perfect sweetness and texture, a MUST try! Their pastry wall holds a plethora of Jewish pastries, which though are generally smaller in portion than other bakeries, are mostly under $2. The staff are friendly and there is a small space for seating. Definitely will be a regular here. read more

We ordered take everything pizza from them. One of very few kosher places in New Haven . Their pizza is also a good choice for vegetarians . Their Shakshuka is also a great Moroccan dish and great choice for brunch read more

Kosher goods pastries and iced coffee just like back home in Israel. Very nice customer service:)!

Stumbled upon this kosher pizzeria. Super kind owner. Very good pizza and French fries. Yummy Israeli salad.

Amazing place I had the Moroccan salmon with quinoa salad was so delicious. The owner and the workers were so friendly and it really made my experience even better. The pizza and bakery items looked amazing as well. I highly recommend going there if you are in the New Haven area or just driving past it. I know I will definitely be going there again for sure! read more

Amazing quality for price. Cooked fresh. Every item I've ordered has been amazing which is surprising considering how many things they offer on there menu. Typically most places that have a menu that lengthy lack in the quality and taste category -but not here! read more

I drove an hour to get to Ricotta from West Hartford it's the best kosher pizza in the state. They have so many trendy Israeli and Middle Eastern food options. The staff is great too, especially Galor she's really innovative and nice. Eating at Ricotta makes you feel at home like I'm back in Brooklyn eating a slice in my old neighbourhood. The slushy ice coffee is a must try. My kids keep asking to go there every week. Everytime we go there we get something new. read more

Great food! Kosher pizza and falafel plus delicious baked goods. Israeli food and desserts. Nice people.

Amazing service, menu, and atmosphere. Ricotta has all the things I love about little bakeries and pizza places in Israel in a charming, well-lit space. Everything was clean, we were served quickly, and I left with my heart and belly full. 10000/10 will come again. read more
