New Haven Pizza, Part Two: Sally's Apizza
Sallys is better than Pepe's by a hair. A white fresh tomato and garlic pizza from Sallys is unbeatable. Onion pizza is also great. You can't complain about the service from Sallys, you have to know what to expect. They've got one or two waiters at a time, and they get you your drinks and pizza with no sugar-coating...they've got a lot of people to satisfy and their number one priority is efficiency. I find ithe service great, in a strange kind of way. Modern pizza is number three in New Haven with some great pies as well. But Sallys will always hold a place in my heart as the top pizza in New Haven, and for me, the best pies that I've ever had. Awesome baby!!!!

Sallys and Pepes give you a "slice" (pun intended) of New Haven culture. If you want to chat it up with the staff at Sallys, you really have to know them previously. Also, if you know what you are doing and place an excellent order of pies, they will complement you and you will gain immediate respect from them.
They ignore the out-of-towners who come in expecting to get served a pie as if it were a normal restaurant. Sallys is above that- this is not your typical establishment. People need to come in expecting bare bones service, long waits, and great pies to make up for the first two.
Bottom line- if you can't handle waiting and being slightly uncomfortable, dont go to Sallys. But you'll miss out on the best pies in the world.
