  • “We got there at 11:45 and we're second in line. By noon The line was 20 people deep. My personal favorite was the white pizza. I thought it was on another level”

  • “The pizza is the best in town and the staff is SO friendly! Decor is very cool. Very creative and beautiful. Atmosphere feels upbeat.”

    — E.B.

  • “I usually find a reason to NOT give someone 5 stars. But I could not find one for Forbidden Pizza. We got the Italian and the Pepperoni. The dough was divine with perfect crust, and the sausage even better.”

    — R.A.

  • "Hands down the best pizza in the city! We had a half All For Tru and half Ricotta Rendezvous which was amazing. We also had a slice of the Forbidden Fruit which upon taking a bite we knew we should have gotten a whole pie of it! All three white pies we tried were truly amazing. The crust of the pizza is superb and the portions are well worth the price."

    — I.V.

  • "The pizza is crisp and tasty. New York style with a New Haven crunch. The fig jam bacon slice was insanely good but the basic slice was everything you could ask for. A definite must go."

    — R.P.

  • "Tried Forbidden Pizza for the first time and wow—absolutely blown away. I had both the Original Sin and the Pepperoni Pleaser, and they were outstanding. The undercarriage on both was perfect—crispy, balanced, and held everything just right. The toppings? Insanely good. You can tell real thought and quality go into every ingredient. This is easily some of the best pizza you’ll find anywhere around. A must-try spot for any pizza lover."

    — J.P.

  • "The real deal. One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. Great crust crisp with just a bit of chew to the middle. Even tried the forbidden fruit with fig jam. Sounds weird but it works. If you love pizza add this to the list of must visit."

    — L.R.

  • "We tried it for the first time…OMG! Best pizza in the city! And if that isn’t enough, the owners and staff are top notch, honest people!"
