Would not order the clam again Overall I would probably come back for a slice if I'm in the area.

We walked in and were greeted immediately by everyone in the place as we walked by them. We were seated promptly and our waiter was helpful in introducing expectations of the style for us as first-timers. It wasn't overly crowded, the booth was in great shape, and we had plenty of space as two colleagues who enjoy pizza (sometimes fixed tables in booths can be a bit uncomfortable). We went with the benchmark, a medium cheese. It was excellent. The char was a smidge (and I mean it - barely) too much but it adds a layer of depth to any pizza. The cheese was perfectly melty, and while it looked like it might be messy, there was barely any flop. We also felt that a $20.50 medium cheese of this quality was worth the money (but a $3.75 fountain soda is mentally harder to cope with haha). But the total package price did seem fair considering! Pizza was probably an 8.3/10, service was excellent, so I'll round up to five stars!

You can tell when someone really knows what they're doing and cares, and that was definitely the case with him. Great food, great service, and Cory and Amos really stood out. We'll definitely be back.

Vespino Pizza + Restaurant is a modern Italian restaurant and New York-style pizzeria that opened…read morein Fairfield, Connecticut in March 2023. It was founded by Italian immigrant restaurateurs and business partners Nunzio DeTommaso and Biagio "Gino" Riccio. DeTommaso ran Gravina Pizzeria in Greenwich for a number of years before it closed, while Riccio is most well-known for founding Quattro Pazzi Café in Fairfield in 1997. In this new collaborative venture between the two, DeTommaso and Riccio serve authentic New York-style pizza in a friendly and casual atmosphere. The name "Vespino" is a reference to a brand of mopeds which are a popular mode of transportation in major Italian cities. In addition to the signature New York-style pizza, the menu also consists of Detroit-style pizza, Italian entrees, pasta dishes, salads, classic antipasti, beer, wine and craft cocktails. In summer 2024, Vespino was sold to restaurateur Marcelo Acosta. My family and I recently had dinner at Vespino for the first time. We've had them on our "must-try" list of restaurants for some time and we were excited to finally sample their food. There were some fancy-sounding drinks on their cocktail menu, so I decided to order the "Sardinian Special" (Redemption bourbon, prickly pear, citrus, mint). This delicious cocktail reminded me of being on a warm Italian beach: a nice distraction from the freezing cold temperatures outside. For food, I ordered the "Burrata Pizza" (mozzarella, tomato sauce, topped with/ fresh burrata & EVOO), my wife ordered the "Tortelloni" (peas, prosciutto, mushrooms, vodka sauce), our older son had the "Kids Chicken Tenders" (w/ fries), and our younger son had the "Kids Penne Pasta" (w/ butter). We all really liked our food! My pizza had a crispy crust, really creamy burrata, and an excellent sauce! My wife loved her pasta, especially the vodka sauce). Overall, we all had a great experience at Vespino and would love to return. Next time I really want to try their Detroit-style pizza.
