Pizzetta in Mystic has the best pizza by far. Fresh as can be and great taste.

Pizzetta is great and they have a gluten free option but it is a little on the pricey side. Taste for value and convenience, I have to nominate Stonington Pizza Place. It would be great if they had a gf pizza but you can't beat a place where they know your name!

Pizza today in city of Groton

Stonington Pizza!! The pizza is great along with all the owners and all the nice people who work there.

Nothing beats Stonington Pizza!!! Friendly, fantastic food fun atmosphere when you choose to eat in vs take out.

Stonington Pizza is the best around!! Great service and friendly owners and staff!!

I think Angies pizza in Mystic by far the best

Angie's, the real Mystic Pizza. Where the locals go. They have a fabulous Greek Salad as well.

NY Family Pizza in Groton in the Kohl's shopping center is the best! Don't forget the garlic knots, too.

RT 184 Pizza in Groton has the best food and pizza.

We have looked high and low for New York style pizza. Angelos' on Plaza Court in Groton is as good as it gets outside of the city!!

Stonington Pizza: great taste and great staff!

Dominos Pizza of Mystic and Groton. Just love the new Artisian and cheesy bread.

Gotta give it to Mango's in Old Mystic Village...that is if you are from the Greater New Haven area and like the thin-crust style and can't get to Pepe's at Mohegan.

Our favorite is Christo's in Pawcatuck.

Angie's Grecian Delight gets our vote.

My vote goes to Avanti's for all pizza but especially their spinach and feta.

Pizza Palace in Groton at 944 Poquonnock Rd @ www.grotonpizzapalace.com

NY Family Pizza in Groton and Angelo's in Groton. Both are great if you like NY style pizza.

Our family loves Mango's in Old Mystic Village.

NY Family Pizza in Groton!

Mango's in the Old Mystic Village is hands down the best pizza. Yeah it's tough getting a set in the summer but it's well with the wait.

Pizza Lady in Pawcatuck. Only place that has ORIGINAL pizza.

Pizzeta! Hands down!

Here are some comments from Facebook:

Joanne Holly: "I like pizza but don't love it but on the few occassions that I feel the urge it is off to ANGIE's..and then if I need my salads, they have delicious Greek Salads and that nice Lemon Chicken soup. GO ANGIE's!!!!"

Aimée Allaire: "Gluten Free and Dairy Free Pizzetta! WooHoo!"

Stonington Connecticut FB Page: "I"ve always loved Stonington Pizza Palace.. Also, it's what the movie stars ate when they were in town!"

Erin Santos Lautenslager: "pizzeatta all the way"

Rachel Fowler: "Angie's! :)"

I nominate Christo's Pizza the best pizza I have had since moving here from Manhattan it is delicious!

And here are some more comments from Facebook:

Barbara Wrobel Heine: "Stonington Pizza is the best!! Great food, great service and friendly owners and staff!!"

Jackie Corris Bunovsky: "definitely pizzetta!!"

Tracy Irene Brunelle: "Stonington pizza"

Bethany Guthrie Martell: ‎"Angie's Pizza & Pier 27 Lounge has the BEST pizza in town (or out of town)!! their spaghetti pizza is awesome!! and the ribs rock!!"

Heather Saphore Overholtzer: "For flavor, quick delivery, and creative specialty pizzas I always rely on Gus's on the corner of 184 & 117."

Karen Negrelli- Griggs: "Midway Pizza in Groton also Pizza Palace in Groton I think if u order small pizza's they come out better then large ones also :)"

Coming from the NY area, Stonington-Mystic pizza has been a real disappointment. Stonington Pizza is good, but travel a little further and have the fabulous Arthur Avenue flatbread pizza at Tuscany (Mohegan Sun).....absolutely the best in the area!

From Groton Patch Facebook:
Alison Gouette - Midway Pizza in Groton! Its delicious! :)
Karen Negrelli-Griggs - Pizza Palace in Groton Midway in Groton has yummy pizza's also.
Rosa Woodhams - Mango's in Old Mystic Village

Pizzetta in mystic is best pizza for many miles. Thin crust, great toppings. Good wine, too -- especially Big Yellow Cab. These folks have sense of humor and fine pizza.

Pizzetta in Mystic

Stonington pizza best food best staff.

Stonington Pizza!!!

Mystic Pizza II and 184 Pizza

Pizzetta, no contest

Stonington Pizza!!!!

Stonington Pizza Palace is absolutely the best pizza in town!

Dominos

Pizza Lady in Pawcatuck for their sweet pizza -it's a local cult favorite! And Mystic Pizza II for their yummy Grecian Delight pizza and closeness to my home!

GO STONINGTON PIZZA!!! I think its the best... I also agree that its great to eat where they know your name....

I've got to say Mango's in Olde Mystic Village and Mystic Pizza 1 and 2.

Kevin: Stonington Pizza vast menue and everything I've tried has been GREAT!!
owners and staff are spectacular!

We make the drive to Illiano's in Waterford. Fantastic pizza and excellent service! If we have to stay on this side of the river, we like Pizzetta.

Well here's where I'm torn. Are we judging on the whole experience or just the pizza itself? In regards to just pizza I'd have to say Pizzetta because I am a huge thin crust kind of guy. However, overall experience, NOTHING beats the Cheers approach the Koukoularises have going on at Stonington Pizza. If all of the eateries in town folded up but one, my choice for the one left standing would be Stonington Pizza any day.

Puh-leeze, people. Snap out of your New Year's funk. Stonington Pizza Palace.

Three way tie for me, Pizza Palace, Wileys Pizzetta. Period, end of paragraph. :)

Stonington pizza Great food great prices and great staff

Stonington Pizza gets my vote. Love their food.

MIdway Pizza in Poquonnock Bridge.

NY Family Pizza in Groton - fabulous crust

Pizzetta Pizza! They even have vegan pizza with Daiya cheese for vegans and everything is fresh and additive free.

Stonington Pizza! Hands down! Pizza is the BEST!!

I think the Patch should sponsor a "Pizza Day" where all the pizza restaurants will participate and bring samples of their pizzas for the public to taste and vote on. One vote per ticket purchased. Proceed to go to the local food bank.

Since their overhaul of sauce and introduction of their Artisan Pizzas, the Dominos Pizza locations in Groton, and Mystic consistently leave the local mom and pop pizzerias in their dust. Don't take my word for it...if you haven't tried them in the past year give it a shot.

Domino's Pizza of Groton and Mystic.. New Pizza Rocks!! Have to love they are locally owned and run for over 14 years and always helping the community

Groton Domino's!!! <3

Groton/mystic dominos. Locally owned, wonderful service and great food.

Stonington Pizza has my vote!... the other places around are just ok but Stonington Pizza has the best food and service!!!

PIZZA LADY.

Pizza Palace in Groton & Midway Pizza in Groton there r a couple others in Groton that r right up there with these 2 places :) Sorry Dominos Pizza just reminds me of fast food Pizza nothing like oven cooked pizza except woodfire pizza's r delishous also

Stonington Pizza has the best pizza, and the best food!

I LOVE Jim Streeter's idea! I also think I need to make a trip to Stonington Pizza!

I love Jim's idea too. We'll have to see if this is possible.

And here are some more Facebook comments:
Rachael Wilson: "pizzetta!!!!! :)"

Ana Pancorbo Sanders: "Pizza Works & Pizzetta (it's a tie)"

Here is another Facebook comment:
Colleen Welles Cauley: "Angie's Pizza in Mystic!"

Every time I fly over from England to CT to see my friends and family I always look forward to getting some REAL DOMINO'S PIZZA and the staff there are the best, I just love them, and the food too!!! Don't forget the cheesy bread!! mmmm

Domino's of Mystic!!!

Stonington pizza for sure!

Another vote for Jim's idea. Excellent!
Pizzetta has the best thin, crispy crust, and wonderful variety of toppings, fresh and delicious. Clean, bright, "modern" atmosphere, with good drinks,

Domino's pizza of Groton and Mystic has my vote. I'm very sure that the picture attached to this article was taken at Mystic Domino's and just looking at it makes me want to order! In fact I'm headed there now!

Come on people we all know the best is Stonington Pizza!!!

Living in Mystic, I drive all he way over to Kohls Shopping Center in Groton to get my NEW YORK PIZZA. It is definitely made by New Yorker's, and it shows! It's the only thing I missed moving up here from NY was NY pizza, but I found this place, and yes, the garlic knots come with the pizza also.

Stonington pizza hands down the best
