Nana's Byrek & Pizza - Waterford, CT

This place was amazing. We tried their burek on September it was delicious. The owner very polite and great service. I wish they were closer to visit them more often. Amazing restaurant.

I've never written a review before but I felt compelled to leave one after my experience at Nana's. Yesterday was my first time there and it was awesome. Nana and the rest of the staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and just great to talk to. My boyfriend and I ordered the Alfredo pasta with chicken and it filled us both up which is surprising considering my boyfriend eats a lot, but anyways it was delicious, filling, and well priced. We also ordered the tiramisu and fried dough and both were extremely good. We were the only ones dining in there and Nana even threw in some extra fried dough for me. One of the best experiences I've had at restaurant, will definitely be going there again.

1st time here. Stopped in on our way to the beach. The owner was very friendly and polite. Also made my 6 year old a small portion (not on menu) of lasagna. Thick crust pizza was AMAZING! Definitely will be back anytime we make our beach trips.

I’ve gotten takeout from Nana’s a few times now and they are 100% every time! The food is so good and made/packaged with care. Staff is always friendly and sweet. What a good local food joint should be!!

This is a covid 19 takeout review. All food is eaten fresh in the vehicle. After reading all of the glowing reviews I decided to stop by. And I am so glad that I did. First, the woman running this place is one of the most pleasant, humble people I have ever met. She alone was amazing. The meat Byrek I had, which I had never heard of before, was amazing. Flaky dough, meat and cheese, and great flavor. The pizza, a meat lovers, was also great. Thin crust, but chewy, flavorful sauce, nice cheese and plenty of toppings. This is a place absolutely worth visiting. On a scale from 0-10 I would rate this 9.6.

I stopped here to bring food to one of my clients in the area, the lady serving me was so kind and warm. She made an AMAZING pizza and was very sweet and helped me feel more confident before my meeting. Great food, great service, great atmosphere.

This is an absolutely wonderful place. The owner is super nice and introduced me to the 8th wonder of the world, Byrek. Had the meatball grinder today. Best grinder roll ever. She makes it all in house. You’ve got to check Out Nana’s Byrek!

My favorite local pizza! I requested heart shaped pizzas for a Galentine's Day lunch I set up for my daughter's and they went above and beyond.

Also their grinders are amazing, I ordered an Italian with banana peppers and it did not disappoint!!

This is one of the best pizza places ever. The owner made us her special version of a byrek without dairy and it was marvelous! Crunchy and soft, and flavorful at the same time. They are the sweetest people. We also got a large pizza with mostly veggies and some baklava, just delicious and their toppings are genuinely high-quality, their mushrooms are real. I highly recommend this place - their tomato sauce is so flavorful and they put extra garlic on the pizza which makes it pop even more! They also sell drinks. They are fully functional even during this COVID-19 time, they are still doing takeout orders. Will be back!

Excellent pizza joint! The owner is one of the chefs and is friendly, engaging and honest. A great place!

Just tried this place and let me say I was very pleased I did. Owner was extremely pleasant and atmosphere was terrific. Food was exceptional and very filling.

We did the kids make your own pizza and they LOVED it!! We will be back again for sure!

Extremely great atmosphere and the staff is so down to earth. The made your own pizza for the kids is the best! We can't thank them enough for a great time and being so friendly with out son. Food was fantastic and so worth the price. Coming again for sure

Found this gem while traveling through Waterford. We had the meat and cheese Byrek - OMG so delicious! Very inviting, great service. We will definitely be back to try the pizza, entrees and desserts. They also offer a military and first responders discount.

Wonderful pizza, and their chicken parm grinders are out of this world! The breads are homemade, and the desserts are gorgeous! It's small, so if there's no seating, order to go. You won't be disappointed!

The spinach pie was delicious like back home
Val the owner was such a nice lady and her baklava so good
Thank you Val

The best place! Not only is the pizza and byrek delicious but the service is top tier. Val and her staff are so personable and friendly. Val is so interactive with the kids and they just adore her! My girls love making pizzas with her. It’s a local favorite for our family now!

Usually going out to eat feels routine,almost like a chore but the experience here was amazing! The kids loved making there own pizza and the time the owner took to help with making the pizza and talking to us was very much appreciated. We wish going out to eat, always felt genuine like our experience here.

Best Gluten free Pizza in all of New England! I am from Waterford, but live in Maine. I have not been able to find another gluten free pizza that even competes with Nana Bryeks! From NYC, Boston to Maine, hands down the best GF pizza that exists! Whenever I am back in CT, if I have the time, I will be ordering a pizza. Please don’t stop the amazing work, I as well as anyone else with a similar restrictive diet greatly appreciate the care put into the Pizza!!! So good, must get.

The Spinach Byrek Ricotta pie is delish....
Definitely going back.
