New Bedford or Fairhaven? I lived a few miles from the Fairhaven location. There’s is okay for the overall pizza. Crust is a plus but sauce and toppings are a negative. Have you been there before? Any other local restaurants that you liked!
Best thin crust pizza is at Mikey B’s on Acushnet Avenue across from Trucchi’s supermarket and a pretty good Chinese restaurant. The crust is basically four layers of phyllo or filo dough. Paper-thin without tons of cheese and toppings, you can eat a whole pizza and not be too full. I eat half today and half tomorrow.
Riccardi’s in New Bedford is tiny and has steps so no wheelchair access. I like that their pizza is just ten inches, not twelve. You can share and not overeat. I’m not a pizza size queen lol.
I’m going to Mikey B’s this week. Owner is the guy from..... damn I can’t think of that name, it was a high-end restaurant in Fairhaven that I loved. He had a second restaurant in New Bedford that did well. I can picture it.....
Marion had a great place with thin crust pizza but it wasn’t Italian, they had a mixed menu. Near the Walsh estate on the water, with a dress code. A dozen years ago they got $9.95 for a lunch hamburger and fries and you had to dress well. No jeans or sneakers, no hats, no low-cut tops and no men without ties.
I ate there thirty years ago after mom had a mastectomy. She wore a light shirt with a v neck and her bandages showed a bit. They told her to put a coat on. Mom refused, saying as a cancer patient she needed light clothing and access to adjust herself if a bandage slipped. He didn’t care and mom said he was discriminating against a breast cancer patient and she wasn’t showing cleavage or anything other than a bandage. The owner came over, apologizing and saying she was fine and he’d comp our meal, and encouraged us to eat lobster. $105 later, he gave us a $100 gift card but we refused it. $205 was too much to offer for rudeness. We told everyone about it and he made up the $105 easily!
Damn now I really want pizza
