Who doesn’t like to grab a slice or two for a quick, tasty lunch or a whole pie for a comfort food dinner?

The Daily Meal, the website that keeps its knives and forks on the culinary pulse of America, has released its 2015 list of the 101 Best Pizzas in America.

And not surprisingly, there are several perennial favorites from the Northeast that made the fourth annual list, including the number 1 pizza joint in the country — Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana of New Haven, Conn.

In fact, five New Haven pizzerias made the list. But Pepe’s edged out the competition from around the country with its white clam pizza.

But what about Westchester, you ask? Well, two places made the list, Tarry Lodge in Port Chester ranked number 89 for its goat cheese pizza, and Sal’s Pizza in Mamaroneck is number 85 for its fabled Sicilian pizza.

The complete list of the 101 Best Pizzas in America can be found here.
