​Frank Pepe's Pizzeria Napoletana is a bustling establishment situated along the historic Wooster Street. There was a line in the waiting room nearly out the door just to be seated. Everyone seemed to know the code: line moves clockwise and closest to the restaurant entrance enters when seats free up. The waiting area had antiques, historical relics, and a powerpoint slideshow of pictures. The seating area consisted of the classic booths. I decided to order the famous white clam pie and an original tomato pie. While I waited to enjoy some of the famous pizza, I had the opportunity to try the Foxon Park ginger ale and white birch beer. Both tasted fantastic. The original tomato pie has quality sauce and a great flavor. The crust and base were crispy and featured a good char (which got heavy on some parts of the crust). The fresh parmesan cheese adds a pleasant creaminess to the sauce creating a well-rounded flavor profile. The clam pie is very unique. The clams were fresh and balance well with the oily, garlicky white pizza. This pie also featured the same great crispiness as the original tomato. Overall, I would say this pizzeria is a pilgrimage that needs to be made for any self-respecting pizza lover. New Haven style apizza is tremendous and this spot sets a high bar for others to try and reach for.
