The Spot

Khalid Anwar 2 months ago

It’s Turkish/Syrian cuisine restaurant with excellent food with great selection of Mediterranean dishes.Knaffe, a traditional Middle Eastern dessert made with shredded phyllo dough (kataifi) or semolina, layered with a sweet, stretchy cheese, and baked until golden is worth trying. Hostess Besra was very nice and hospitable and helpful. Highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing experience!! Erika was our waitress, and she was absolutely incredible, she made a lasting first impression for us! The pizza was so delicious, especially the crust, and the atmosphere was so warm and friendly. Will be back!

The pizza here is SO delicious. It was my first time eating new haven pizza everyone talks about, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I only have a couple complaints, specifically regarding the tiramisu. The desert and food here is not cheap, and we ended up being served a tiramisu was was basically a brick because of how frozen it was. Keep in mind that when you come here, its not by the slice. You're going to have to buy a whole pie. Great experience overall.

I had the pleasure of eating at “The Spot” last night and boy was I pleased with my experience. Not only is the pizza far superior than Sally’s in terms of quality and flavor but this is the original joint that Frank started, brick oven and all! We ordered the small original tomato pie with mozzarella. The pizza was thick enough to stand on its own, cheesy and delicious, and had an incredible flavor profile. I can’t stop thinking about it! For those who are confused about the two places, let me clear it up for you: you wait in the main line outside “Frank Pepe’s” and if you’re lucky, they tell you that there’s a table in the back for you at “The Spot”. Per the waitress, Frank started at The Spot and expanded to Frank Pepe’s in the front. What does this mean for you? It means your wait time is cut in half because there are two buildings for you to que into. There are also two parking lots, one on either side of the Frank Pepe’s building.

Came here on a Sunday at 1 for some renown pizza was not disappointed. I am a NY/NJ pizza fan, thin crust with slightly sweet tomato sauce and slices you can fold. The parking was tricky on a Sunday and after seeing the lines at the other spot up the block Sally’s we waited in line for about 10 minutes but decided on take out from the smaller spot around the block. Walked right in and ordered. The were 4 guys making pies and after about 30 minutes I was enjoying a plain cheese pie and a margarita with the family. No slices so we had left overs. The plain cheese was a bit oily and floppy with the tangy element to the sauce it was an amazing I understand the criticism of well done but this is intended. The texture of the margarita pie was crisp like a cracker with cornmeal on the bottom. Amazing sauce and texture. Will try to come back again and sit down for lunch next time. 2 pies was $47 usd
