I recently did a NH pizza tour with a few friends. One afternoon, all 4 of the main spots in a row- Sally's, Pepe's, Modern, Bar. In that order. From each place we ordered one cheese/tomato pie, and one specialty recommended by each place.
Here were my ratings out of 10.
Bar- 9.4
Pepe's- 9.3
Modern- 8.6
Sally's- 8.1
Bar had a lobster pizza. $36 for a small. But it blew my balls off. The tomato pie was outstanding as well. That was my third time there and it lived up to the hype each time. Nevermind the great atmosphere there, the pizza holds up big time. Bar might be my favorite pizza restaurant in the world. We also saw Dan Patrick at the bar. And then Anderson Cooper at a cafe the next morning.
I said that Bar was better than anything I had in Italy to a native Italian girl a few weeks ago and she thought I was insane and just laughed.
Sally's was the biggest surprise- underwhelming. I went there a couple times before and was underwhelmed. Still very good pizza, just doesn't hold a torch to the other 3 IMO.
Modern surprised me- really loved it. A bit different style from the other 3. More of a classic American pizza parlor.
Pepe's clam and fresh tomato pie were both outstanding. I had been to other Pepe's locations around the state (Mohegan, Manchester) and was very disappointed. The New Haven one is just far superior.
