OT: Best Pizza in CT

[Hoophound]

I've been disappointed with Roseland. I just had it again 3 weeks ago and I never get those who rate it so highly. Just my opinion though. What part of Northern CT? Unless Litchfield County you are probably going to go thru New Haven anyway. I'd give any of the big 3 the nod not only for the apizza but the experience.

Heading to West Hartford then points north. Going to New Haven midday doesn’t bother me. I was just questioning if that was the best bet for New Haven style. West Hartford has a couple places that are great IMO but my buddies want to try New Haven. I also plan to play a round of golf at Cedar Knob in Somers and I love Italian Villa there. It’s a Greekish thin crust pizza that’s just off the charts with pepperoni, hamburg and onion. Red Rose in Springfield is also on my radar. It’s delicious. We are going to fit in two pizzas in 2 days, just not sure where we’ll end up. Looking like Modern and one to the north.

Sorry to hear about Roseland. Haven't been in years.

I’ve had better frozen pizza than at the West Hartford location. Went for lunch with a coworker and it was so bad we left.

Had a similar experience at their East Greenwich / Warwick RI place.

Anyone ever had pizza from this place in Glendale, CA? Legit? Aggressive move opening one in New Haven.

Ozzy's Apizza, which opened Friday at East Rock Market on Nicoll Street, is the second location for founder Chris Wallace, who initially started the business out of his home kitchen in Los Angeles in 2021. Wallace now owns and operates Ozzy's in Glendale, California, and was inspired to open an East Coast location so he could see his Connecticut-based family more often, he said.

Not sure if it's the lighting, but that pie looks charred to point of crispy. Too charred for me and I like a lot of leopard spotting on the cornice and undercarriage.

Did anyone go to the CT Pizza and Brew Fest in Bridgeport? Great event! My favorite pizza there was Grand.

 

[Huskybass]

Grand Clinton was fantastic last week. Spot on.

There's no way it was "great". On it's best day, it's a DiGiorno's.

'I'll run a couple slices of a frozen $5 DiGiorno's pizza thru my air fryer, and it's pretty damn good. Better than most local places at $25 for the entire pizza. And the delivered pizza is always soggy.

I guess we didn't really need 325 pages of discourse on it then....

I hate pepperoni, but that looks pretty good.

Is it sliced?

Nah. I have very low standards.

Let others with higher standards debate their best pizza place in CT. I'll stick with ordering a party size pizza from my local shop, vacuum seal three slices at a time and stick each into my sub zero freezer.

That lasts me a couple months. The air fryer brings it back to life.

Ugh. Oh, Tom.

Ugh. Oh, Tom.

Yeah, three pieces isn’t enough for me either. Lol

That's all that fits. Rinse, repeat at least twice.

Yup that is my air fryer experience too, and people dont realize that there is a real hidden benefit there. If you put 3 pieces in after your first 3 pieces already cooked, the second 3 are finished at pretty much the exact time your finished eating your first 3, so you get the advantage of all 6 of your slices being able to be eaten at optimal temp right out of oven.

$25-$30. Run a slice of Costco pepperoni thru that air fryer even better. Even with inflation, increased wages, and costs there is less than $5 worth of ingredients in most pizzas so I do object to pizziaflation and greed by shop owners but addictions must be satisfied.
