You've tried all the rest?

Yes, I have and Colony is KING

7.8, but coulda been in the low 8’s. We’ll see about Mondo’s.

I wanted to like Sicily pizza. Had it twice early on and I simply don't like their sauce. I like the place otherwise, very nice inside.

Honestly if you gave me the Fairfield Pepe's and the New Haven Pepe's blindfolded I doubt I could tell the difference. It's exceptional.

Honestly, I thought the sausage and mushroom pie I had there last Saturday was better than the last Modern S&M I had. I will say though that if you want a cheese only pie I’d still ask for the Modern first.

I've been telling people for a long time, Fairfield Pepes is excellent. I eat there occasionally and get take out all the time (can make R/T from Norwalk in less than 30 minutes w/o traffic), can't remember the last time I had a pie that wasn't excellent.

The oven is now almost 20 years old, so its properly seasoned. And for a long time, the pizza makers in Fairfield had to put in a few years in New Haven prior to working there. 9.2!

I live 1 mile from Sapore. Portnoy gave it a 7.9/8.1 this week. I gave it a 6.2. Dude is a hack. I love his propping of CT pizza, so I will take it, but what a

Big score for Mondo!

As a Middletown resident...we are known for our Main St restaurant row and Wesleyan University (which I don't think is often a backup school...certainly wasn't for Lin Manuel Miranda)

Obviously no disrespect to you, but you understand he’s eaten maybe 25,000 more pizza slices than you. Right?

I think you're wrong there. Portnoy eats a slice. ADub houses the entire pie.

 

[dvegas]

It's Connecticut. Slices don't count. not parmasean. Pecorino Romano.

This is like ADub telling Jerry Garcia he was off on some 40 minute guitar solo.

 

[HooperScooper]

There are several serviceable options on the shoreline, they are all decent. Carpanzano’s in Guilford is similarly good, but has better pasta dishes.

Portnoy was just in Guilford. 8.2. He certainly loves Connecticut pizza.

Yesterday around noon a friend and I were in New Haven and on the way home I decided to go down Wooster St to get on I-95. Sally's had a line 20 deep and Pepe's was just starting to fill. Being that parking was available we were seated in Pepe's where we ordered three small pies. Mozz with pepperoni and peppers, white clam and mozz with bacon and onion along with a large birch and large orange Foxon Park. You can't have New Haven pizza unless you have Foxon Park soda. Nothing better than an unplanned lunch with a friend at Pepe's.

I would do that. Jerry Garcia at his best is a million times the guitar player Ill ever be, but if you listen to his sad playing from 1995 (the year he passed away) I was at least 100 times better. He literally could not play the guitar. At all.

You've tried all the rest?

You’ve just disqualified every human being on planet earth from being able to participate in the thread. Including yourself - show yourself out.

 

[dvegas]

ctbites.com , which I'm not convinced isn't a "pay-to-play" website, did a fluff piece today raving about Vincenzo's Pizzeria in Waterbury. Any reviews/opnions?

ADub would start telling Jerry Garcia why he was off, but then would just get bored with the story and walk away from it.

This pizza shop owner is great.

-> The Dorchester location is set to open in the South Bay Center off of I-93, while the Concord location is part of a new development. It will include a Starbucks and Chipotle and will be located in the former Papa Razzi Trattoria, according to a Sally’s press release this week.

Both are slated to open in 2025, and a Seaport location is also on the way, its opening date now pushed to 2025 as well. <-

Brewport. Looks a brewery pizza
Not for take home. Got an 8.1.

I need to get here. It's on an alternative commute route.

 

[Huskybass]

Brewport is pretty good. I dare say very good. It was recommended to me by my friend who runs the New Haven Pizza School and we hit it before a concert.

Btw, I had a cheese slice from Lorenzo's in West Haven yesterday. It was superb NY style. I mean absolutely delicious.

When hot, it's better than anything else in the Bridgeport area.

Isn't Guilford east of New Haven, halfway between New Haven and Old Saybrook?
