Outrageously good pizza. Due to the fact that I live like 40 minutes away, I grabbed two pies, a Grandma with sausage (sounds inappropriate when I read it out loud) and a plain Detroit style, which is very difficult to find in the northeast. Both were really amazing and seemed to be made with high quality ingredients. Without question, I'm making the trip there again, and probably sooner than later.

My buddy told me I was nuts to drive so far "just for pizza"; I told him to enjoy his Domino's.

Genuinely my favorite pizza place around. Their food is fresh, hot and delicious. Everytime!!! I have not been disappointed...
... Lorenzo, the owner, is a sweet man. Always pleasant, always makes me feel welcomed. Local kids and drivers are respectful and prompt and courteous. I recommend Joe's Pizza very much so!

Probably the best pizza in the immediate area. The Sicilian is super fluffy, I love it, but if you don't like it, ask them to leave off the Parmesan cheese. The sauce us a little thick and over-spiced but that's my only complaint. It's quite good. Not as good as I can get if I want to drive towards New Haven or towards Mount Vernon but definitely can recommend.

I'm an idiot for not trying this pizza sooner! Less than a mile from work and easy pickup window but what took them over the top was offering that fresh burrata on top!! So few places offer my favorite, decadent cheese and this cut the saltiness of "original" cheese pizza underneath. Crispy, yeasty crust and delicious sauce with fresh basil - I was in heaven on a Tuesday. Perfect combo :-)

Got the Brooklyn Sicilian pie tonight with extra pepperoni and it was amazing! It was my first time ordering (won’t be my last!) - super easy, they take payment over the phone and then when it’s ready you walk up to their takeout window and pick up.

I thought Joe's pizza in Mount Vernon NY had the best Sicilian pizza. I had Joe's Sicilian pizza in New Canaan CT the first time time last week. It was The best corner and middle slice of Sicilian pizza I ever had in my life. Sorry Money earning Mt. Vernon. Gotta try it,got the pie btw. The best.

The pizza is good but getting a text saying it will be ready at one time and having it 30 minutes late is too much. Plan on more than 2 hours no matter what they say.

Joe’s is THE go-to pizza place in New Canaan. The food is amazing. The pizza is incredible, but be sure to try the chocolate chip cookies - really. Warm out of the oven, they are the perfect end to an extraordinary meal

I was looking for some good pizza, found Joe's because they deliver during this tough stretch, and Wow, we are happy we did.
Love the Pizza, tried 3 or 4 of their special pies and love them all. Enjoyed the chicken dishes, pastas, salads and calzones. Joe's is now our go to place!

Last night we had JOE's SPECIAL (ordered without meatballs), we've been getting pizza from this place for 9 years but first time to get this selection. AMAZING! Lorenzo fully stands behind his quality. You will not regret going to Joes, especially during these Covid days when we all need a pick-up!

Lorenzo is the best! Specialty pizzas are fantastic. Great eggplant, plate of chicken Parmesan you will not be able to finish in one sitting! Enough for two. Open now and taking precautions.

Just had Joes cheese crust base pizza. No dough. It was. Incredible. Anyone on the no carb keto based diet ITV was an excellent alternative.

I just wanted to say, again, best pizza around!!! The love and attention that goes into all your food, is commendable. Unless you’re in the business you have no idea what effort it takes to always bring your… A-game. Lorenzo, keep up the hard work and constant learning, you are a jewel! Big things coming your way, trust your hard working path!

Love this place. Great pizza. Always get the grandmas style pizza. I don't like the Sicilian style but that's a matter of preference. Prompt delivery.

Things to get
- grandmas pizza

Lorenzo is a fantastic pizza maker and a charismatic and generous business owner. I’ve been going to this pizza place for the last 15+ years and the quality of the food and service consistently exceeds my expectations. It doesn’t get much better...
Buffalo chicken and BBQ chicken pies are both top notch 👌

The pizza is OK if you can get one fresh from the oven. I get skeptical when a place opens and they already have partial pizzas sitting out ready to serve. (Yesterday's anyone?) The lack of customer service doesn't help this place. However, the pizza is tasty if you don't mind the service and you get a slice in the middle of the day.
