The clam pie at Bellucci’s Pizzeria in Queens is not a last-minute decision.

Has anyone tried this? It was just featured in the NYT as "life altering clam pizza"

I wouldn't be too offended. The list skews heavily toward traditional Neopolitan pies.Just saw this... 15 in the US and ZERO in CT... not sure how 2 Pizzerias in Miami beat our little world... Here Are the 100 Best Pizzerias in the World, According to a New Ranking
I moved here in 2002. First five years here the food scene was about the worst of any top 50 city in US. Then it exploded. Lots of great places now, but 98% of pizza is still mediocre at best.As a former resident of Pittsburgh (4 years @ CMU waaaay back in the 80s) I always love seeing any positive reference to quality food!
The large is $55, what do they charge for a large clam pie at the New Haven area places?![]()

Jay's does Italian style personal pizzas. Just a little bit larger than the kind you get in Italy. It's basically $13 or $14 a pop for a pizza for one person. You can easily eat the entire pie yourself but it's more like 3/4 for 1 person. The equivalent of 4 or 5 Pepe slices.I wouldn't be too offended. The list skews heavily toward traditional Neopolitan pies.
Closest I've come to eating one of these was back when Roberto (now owner of Keste) started out here in Pittsburgh. Went to a cooking class as his place. That was almost 20 years ago, and still the best pizza I've ever had here.
Might have to take a trip to Jay's one of the days. I'm amused that there are no Detroit places on the list, but Jay's in Buffalo does both Neopolitan and Detroit and doesn't do Buffalo-style, which is pretty awful.
"Market price," which was $32.45 for a medium at Zuppardi's three years ago when this article was written:The large is $55, what do they charge for a large clam pie at the New Haven area places?
Prices are 12" $17.75, 16" $27.25 AND 18" $35.25. At Pepe's. They have gone up in price but still one of my stops when I go back home. No such clam pie in Florida.The large is $55, what do they charge for a large clam pie at the New Haven area places?
I've eaten at many of the places on this list, I wouldn't knock any of them. San Mateo (27) is a personal favorite. And we all know these lists are always arbitrary more than not.....Just saw this... 15 in the US and ZERO in CT... not sure how 2 Pizzerias in Miami beat our little world...

Would be a heck of a bucket list to go to every one of those places and try one.Just saw this... 15 in the US and ZERO in CT... not sure how 2 Pizzerias in Miami beat our little world... Here Are the 100 Best Pizzerias in the World, According to a New Ranking
Color me confused. We looking at the same list?I've eaten at many of the places on this list, I wouldn't knock any of them. San Mateo (27) is a personal favorite. And we all know these lists are always arbitrary more than not.....
But it's ridiculous to not have anything from New Haven (or CT/RI at all) on any top pizza list. It's either ignorance or bias against the culture of pizza in the northeast US amongst the people involved. If you have 5 places in Portland and none in the two states which have the highest concentrations of Italians in America, then you have failed to make a proper pizza list.
see? this is what im talkin aboot on size. this one says '18' for the large, but that poser ('Someone had tipped him off to Frank Pepe’s in New Haven, the man credited with inventing the clam pie in the ’50s, so he traveled to Connecticut. “It was like going to a cathedral. I think I might’ve gone six weekends in a row. I became obsessed with Frank Pepe’s clam pie and stylized mine based on his.”,) ripoff clam pie says 'The large, 19-inch pie.'Prices are 12" $17.75, 16" $27.25 AND 18" $35.25. At Pepe's. They have gone up in price but still one of my stops when I go back home. No such clam pie in Florida.
I was looking at the top 50 in the US listColor me confused. We looking at the same list?
It looks pretty good but I find it hard to believe there’s a more delicious clam pie than the one Zuppardis’s makes![]()

Especially since Bellucci’s gets their clams from Connecticut!It looks pretty good but I find it hard to believe there’s a more delicious clam pie than the one Zuppardis’s makes
Seems kinda silly. International rankings may be nice for the locals, but unless we're talking about Italy, I'm not going on a trip around the world to get pizza, and if I'm in some international hotspot, pizza is going to be pretty far down the list of food I'm orderingJust saw this... 15 in the US and ZERO in CT... not sure how 2 Pizzerias in Miami beat our little world...

I would agree with this 98% of the time. But, if you're in Eastern Europe for a couple-plus months in winter, having a good pizza place in your back pocket is a necessity. There's only so much агнешко печено one can eat.Seems kinda silly.

Naples does run a solid pizza truck! They are also one of the main food options at Stony Creek Brewery if you're ever there. Their restaurant in a strip mall in Guilford I cannot say the same for. It's fine, but nothing special.FYI, just had this Pizza Truck at a party, it was very good. Naples Pizza Truck | CT Food Trucks
