Frank Pepe's, Yonkers


The Yonkers branch of the classic New Haven pizzeria has the same decor as the mother ship, and the same crisp, thin-crusted pies.

We ordered a couple of individual pies, practically a light meal. The white pie with gorgonzola, spinach, mushrooms and mozzarella was rich without being overpowering. The topping combination would make a great pasta dish.

The original tomato pie with mozzarella and sausage was spicy, lusciously rich with a hearty red sauce. Much more intensely flavorful than the average pizza.

It's really dangerous to have such great pies so much closer than they used to be.
