Sally's Apizza
Opened in 1938, this long-established coal-fired pizzeria competes with Pepe across the street. It is known for its tomato pie and a seasonal fresh-tomato pizza.
Sally's was founded in 1938 by Sal Consiglio, the nephew of Frank Pepe. It stands on Wooster Street, and the 'pizza duel' between the two restaurants is a favourite topic of New Haven food talk. Both bake thin, crisp crusts in coal-fired ovens. Its signature is the simple tomato pie, and it offers a limited fresh-tomato version in late summer. Many American presidents and celebrities have dined here. Seating is limited and the queues are long, so put your name on the online waitlist in advance or go on a weekday.
Opening hours
