Portnoy has previously declared New Haven the “Pizza Capital of the World” and said Sally’s was the best he’s ever had.

Portnoy gave Sally’s a 9.2, Modern Apizza on State Street an 8.8, Pepe’s an 8.5 and Bar on Crown Street a 7.4. He said Modern and Pepe’s were very close in quality and noted that Bar was more of a nightlife pizza, but was still good.

In addition to New Haven’s iconic institutions, Portnoy also visited Zuppardi’s Apizza in nearby West Haven and gave it an 8.2.
