The Connection
The Pizza: 10 Pizzas out of 10
Pizza Style: NY Thin Crust
If you've been searching for authentic thin crust pizza in Ithaca, your search has ended - The Connection is waiting for you. These guys just started selling Pizza and they have quietly built a following of vocal fans (Connection-heads? Connectionists?) And there is a lot to love about their Za. The cheese pizza is the special of the house as the quality of the cheese used really shines.
The crust is thin and light like a Macbook Air.
The sauce is robust and full and floats on the palate.
The Brownie is decadent and surprisingly good - ours came warm and gooey - the next morning I thought it was even better cold. The Connection lets you select what goesinside the brownie so you can you dial in your own personal yumminess - ours, I am ashamed to admit, had Reese Peanut Butter cups melted inside. Highly recommended, with an emphasis on high.
The Connection is located at 310 Stewart Ave, in Ithaca, NY
