Plain Tomato Pie (V) 10.5 / 14.5
In New Haven, you have to ask for "mootz" to get what most people think of as a plain pizza. When you ask for "plain," you get a simple, classic fresh tomato pie the way Frank Pepe made them when he first opened for business in New Haven in 1925. Ours features our crisp thin crust, all-natural tomato sauce, fresh chopped garlic, extra virgin olive oil, a dash of oregano, and a good sprinkling of pecorino-romano. Light, healthy and a great value.

Kyra’s Favorite: 12" Gluten-free Pizza 14
Pete's makes its own gluten-free pizza crust in-house daily using the freshest all-natural ingredients: tapioca starch, chickpea flour and rice flour, plus water, salt and yeast, and a splash of olive oil on the pan before baking. Choice of toppings.
