I have had pizza at all of the pizza shops mentioned in your article and Abate on Wooster Street has, hands down, the best Margherita pizza anywhere in CT. Unfortunately they experienced a fire back in may 2023. Hoping they reopen as soon as the can

Barbara, You’re referring to Ernie’s Pizza. I’m told it’s still there and run by the son now. It was our favorite and if I lived closer, I’d probably dine there at least once a week like we did years ago.

I remember that place on Whalley Av. near Davis St., as my parents lived on Whalley and we too got pizza, spaghetti etc. from there. Sorry don’t remember Rosetti’s but sure it was good too. Pepe’s and Sally’s were a favorite when lived in New Haven. Good taste memories!!

My father would often get a pizza there for a special Friday night treat. We loved the sights, the smells, the friendliness of the place. Once, we even got to see the pizza ovens. We loved the Wooster Street places, but the close-to-home place, to us, at least, was the best. BTW, does anyone remember a little Italian restaurant by the name of Rosetti’s on Wooster Street? Sunday dinners there were a real treat.
