While New York City is well known for being a pizza mecca, many in the know say that it is actually New Haven, not NYC, that is the pizza capital of the world. The famous New Haven apizza, pronounced "ah-beets" is known for being cooked in coal-fired ovens and many would put the best pizza in New Haven up there with the best pizza in New York City and the best pizza in the world even!
While there are plenty of New Haven pizza shops to explore, such as Sally's Apizza, Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana, and New Haven's Bar pizza, in this video we went to Modern Apizza. It has almost as long a history as all the other places but Modern Apizza was rated the best pizza in the USA by Pizza Today magazine. An impressive feat considering just how many great pizza places there are in the hometown of Yale University!
Today we seek to answer many questions: Is Modern Apizza the best pizza in the USA? Is Modern Apizza a tourist trap? And is New Haven pizza better than New York pizza or at least on par with it? Check out this video to learn more!

Thanks for all your well wishes! After feeling unwell for about a week, today I am feeling like myself again. To clarify, it was not from the allergic reaction that day, which subsided that evening after medication

It's usually shrimp, lobster and crab that causes allergic reactions - many people who are allergic to shellfish can tolerate clams AND oysters, scallops and mussels. But always consult with your doctor first! Great video as always! Hope you recover quickly from your illness.

How bad was the allergy as they can be very serious? My aunt can't eat shrimp because her upper lip and eyelids really swell up. I used Louisiana Supreme hot sauce and during a phone conversation, felt bumps showing up on my neck and shoulders. I noticed that my speech was becoming impaired and when I looked in the mirror, my right upper lip and left upper eyelid ballooned in size. Then I felt my throat closing up and I popped a Benadryl I luckily found in a bathroom cabinet. It was late at night and I prayed to God to get me through the night with my breathing while I slept. I had to wear shades the next two days to hide my eyelid as it finally reduced. Then I ate a Chipotle Chicken Snack Wrap at McDonald's and the opposite reaction happened and mirrored on my face but not as severe. So I have to watch it with some red pepper varieties.

I was born in NYC and think New York pizza is great. I currently live in Branford, CT (about 10-15 minutes from New Haven) and think New Haven style pizza is truly incredible mostly due to the coal-fired ovens they use. New Haven has been ranked the pizza capital of the world by many because we have many old, famous pizzerias such as Pepe's, Sally's, Modern, Bar, Zuppardi's, Da Legna, and so many others. The two you mentioned, Best Pizza and John's on Bleeker Street, are also phenomenal. I would also add Lucali and Spumoni Garden located in Brooklyn to your list.

I think what makes New Haven style pizza different from anywhere else and that I haven’t found duplicated is the texture of the crust. It isn’t about being thin and crispy. It’s the toothsome chewy texture to it. I worked in NYC for 22 years. Tried pizza from Coney Island to Manhattan to the Bronx. You can throw anything you want one a pizza but without our signature crust everything else just makes me grateful for being raised in this area. Even pizza in Italy didn’t do it for me.

Visiting NYC as a kid in the late 80s, the best Pizza I got to try was Patsy's in Harlem. Last time we were in NY 15 years ago visiting family, we tried Grimaldis (Patsy's Lanceri's nephew I believe), and it was not anything remotely close to how good Patsy's Harlem was pre-1991. My Dad grew up in Harlem in the 40's and 50's eating Patsy's. My Dad was not impressed with Grimaldi's. When some partner/owner came to our large dinner party table and asked how everything was, my Dad was a right ahole and told him about his History with Patsy's and how nothing can ever touch Patsy's. Guy made some excuses and then thanked us for coming.

As a local I rate Pepes,Sally’s, Modern and Ernie’s all are New Haven style winners! Your gripe about the line is understood but as a local this place has that side entrance “closet” for pick up only and it’s in and out and that’s how I get my pie! Great review I love the quality of the video on the slices and that you appreciated the “char” not burnt crust! 🍕✌🏻

Hope you feel better! Thanks for the review. Spot on! You are correct to point out that it all comes down to subjective preference. I do 1/2 pepperoni 1/2 sausage from modern but I go to Pepe’s for clam because they don’t put mozzarella on it. Just garlic, oil and grated pecorino. I do add bacon sometimes but no peppers. I go to Sally’s for their potato pie. To each it’s own. When I crave apizza, I call order all three places, drive do my round of pickups, eat a slice of each in my car and bring the rest home.

There is no best pizza place, it is all about what you like. I have a place near me called FireHouse Pizza & Pub, and in my opinion they have the best pizza I have ever had. It's an all meat pizza, with fairly think crust, not super thin, just a little thin. And to me it is the best pizza I have had in my life. So I told a few people in my pool league about it, and they said they had one, and they did not think it was that great. That tells me that pizza is just what your taste is, because they said they were not that impressed with it, they said it was ok, but not great. But to me it was the best pizza I have ever had, and to this day I still think that. I get them to go all the time and eat some of it, then I freeze some of it and re-heat it in my air fryer at a later time.

Thanks for the video. A friend of mine used to be a Yale professor and he invited me to come there and play the Yale Golf Course with him. i never got the chance to take him up on his offer, but it wasn't until years later that I found that New Haven is famous for their pizza, so I really wished I had. I grew up having allergic reactions to shrimp. But I also grew up eating clams no problem. I used to think I was just allergic to crustaceans. Thought that way for 30 years until about 4 months ago when I went to an allergist and they said 'nope'...just allergic to shrimp. Had my first lobster tail after that and then crab legs and never got sick. They did prescribe me an epi pen just in case there's cross contamination.

I've had the Colony pizza, with Pepperoni and Jalapeno peppers, with a drizzle of honey at the end, in Westport, CT. I know Emmy Squared is all around the area. The pizza has a nice crisp cheesy crust all around the edges and the blending of sweetness and heat work great together! It's thicker than NY style but thinner than Chicago style.

I went to Pepe’s and was not impressed. I enjoyed the clam pie, I liked the tomato pie, and then we had what you would would call a plain pie in NY (mozzarella slice in Modern). The plain pie at Pepe’s, I could find 1,000 pizzerias in NY that have better plain pies. And that’s what I judge pizza on, a plain slice. That’s what’s great about pizza, it’s all personal as far as what you like. But I didn’t find Pepe’s to be better than most NY pizzerias. I found it overrated.

I think frank pepe is best in New haven. The location in mohegan sun is great also. In ny, johns sausage pie hands down. Keep it up!!

Love Modern, I was there today. Not as good as Zuppardi’s in West Haven. Their sausage and mushroom is amazing! Oh and it’s called Ah-beetz.. not A pizza, and it’s not mozzarella it’s Mootz in NH . Lol

Summer of 2021 did the tour of New Haven Pizza's, in our rating Frank Pepe's was first, Sally's a very close second and Modern was a distant third.

My daughter goes to Yale, lives right near Modern…have to go with a few people and get a few different pies to share. They’re small and very shareable…

Deninos on Staten Island (aware they have one in the village now too) both good, partial to the original location.

It's pronounced "AHH-beets", not "Apizza" like it looks.

if you are able to get it, try czech Kofola. its also cola drink, but slightly herbal and Liquorice, little less sweet than your cola, i think you will enjoy it.

If you like the San Marzano tomato sauce you can get the tomato pie or tell them that you want the upside-down pie with the cheese on the bottom and the tomato sauce on top.
