OT: Best Pizza in CT

[Huskybass]

Tried Modern for the first time today. Had the Italian Bomb, it was excellent... maybe half a notch lower than Pepe's, but still excellent. New Haven truly is the pizza capital of the world.

Travel Channel 's Food Paradise show running Pepe's / Sally's episode right now. Rivalry is between the customers. But we knew that.

BREAKING: Diamond Stone expected to announce, on November 12, his decision. Sources close to the family say that he's down to Sally's and Pepe's.

My people tell me it's Stone = Pepe's

I live in Stamford and think Colony is very overrated. I don't understand it. In Stamford, I would recommend Hope Street Pizza (Greek Style). Best Greek Styple pizza in CT though, is Max Pizza in Bristol. That place is a awesome.

For Greek Pizza, I have not had better than Jordan's in Norwalk. And I really like Town and Country in New Britain as well.

The national media is always several years behind, Pepe's is still good but not what it used to be. Definitely dropped a notch or two in the last 15 years or so. If you want the best pizza in CT, go to Zuppardis in West Haven. Their sausage and mushroom pie is unmatched. I'd rate Modern pizza 2nd, and Roseland Apizza in Derby 3rd.

Town and Country Pizza (New Britain) - OUTSTANDING Greek Style Pizza. The place has been there forver and is particularly well known by the locals. This is really worth a trip for anyone living in Central CT.

So, is are the Sally's kids selling the business or not?

Yeah, I heard that too!!! Very sad.

I got on a train in New Haven for a meeting in NYC and 20 minutes into my ride got an email that the meeting was postponed until next week. I got off in Stamford, then back to New Haven and decided to change the course of a day with a pizza. I love Pepe's but I've gotten a lot from the West Hartford branch recently and wanted something else. Sally's didn't open til 4 pm so I went to Modern and got a bacon and clam red pie.

I had never been to Modern before but will definitely be back. I'm gonna give it a couple more trial runs before I commit to this statement, but it might have been the best clam pizza I've ever had.

Sorry to star a new one and this isn't to do that. I went back fas to check for the original but did;t find it right away so hence here's an add on. I found this article while reading a UConn article so thought I'd post it. I believe someone mentioned this place as their favorite so here's a good article on the history. 2nd oldest in the state to Pepe's.

I drive by there often. I'll have to try it.

My one contribution to the Boneyard, creation of the Pizza Thread, is now meaningless.

Solid place.

Here's the original thread.

Mau, I'm begging you to put your post in that thread and delete this one. Shouldn't it be considered Boneyard sacrilege to post anything about pizza outside this original thread?

 

[earl the pearl]

Definitely worth a try. Great place!

Nuzzo's of Madison all the way, with Ray's in Niantic coming in at number two. The top five rounds out with Ash Creek (Bridgeport), Pepe's (any of them, they're all good), and Little Rendezvous (Meriden).

What the hell is Ash Creek(Bridgeport)?

Zuppardis is decent but doesn't compare to the top New Haven Spots. In fact I much prefer Papa's (not Papa's II) in Milford to Zuppardis, Since there has been very little BB talk this week I'll ask here. Does anyone know if Omar is practicing this week. If he doesn't play against Coppin State I wonder if we will see him at all this year.

It was a pizza place. Sadly I just found out "was" is appropriate as they've closed.

Never heard of it, and I've lived in the area for a long time, and thought I knew all of the pizza joints.

I haven't been there in nearly 20 years, so I'm not sure how long ago it was that they closed their doors.
