He kept eating it to make sure he had the right score out of respect for the name. It was never an 8 pie just off the look alone. If they left it in a little longer and crisped up then sure
And it's not just the story itself. It's the cadence of the speaker. The rise and fall of tone, the rhythm of the speaker. I could listen to this dude banter for hours.
Not for a pizzeria that spent 8 years to get Di Fara’s secrets. Portnoy is not lying. I was born and still live in NYC and Di Fara’s is top 10 in the city. It’s a 9 pizza any day.
7.9 is actually low in my opinion for their pizza. I live around the corner from Dom's and been going there since they opened in 2011. While it surely ain't as great as the original Di Fara in Brooklyn, it is an outstanding pie and probably more like an 8.4. Dave under scored it because it was a bit thicker than he likes after they even left the fresh basil off for him! hahaha
@@michaelderamo1866 I live about a mile from Doms, I think their grandma slice is their better pizza. I'm at Caesars all the time and occasionally use my voucher on a free slice, the price and the quality there is just simply terrible. What do you think of Those Guys? I would put them ahead of Doms
i love how old people say "i could tell you the whole story, it's interesting" and then they go on to tell the whole story anyway. Not that it's a bad thing. Once and a while i run into them and embrace the story in hopes of potentially learning something new.
The old Italians are the ones with the greatest stories. My grandmother, God rest her soul, use to tell me stories of my family and our heritage. All the old crime bosses and the way it was in Italy and in Brooklyn. This guy is legit. Next time I'm in Vegas I gotta try this pizzeria.
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen to him. Shows a lot of class; showing respect for your elders. Good job Dave. With how busy you are, and the money you have…. that can teach the younger men. Good Job Dave.
What a great episode! The story time at the end was absolutely a special treat. Being that I am from North Carolina, I had to listen to the story several times to understand what the heck the man was talking about. But, that’s what made it so much fun? Keep up the good work…
The American dream and hard work. This guy knew what he wanted and went to work, working on how to become a great pizza maker from the best. Great story
I love these little big longer than usual one bite videos... the stories & just feeling like you're kind of there yourself. Dave listens very well and soaks in all the history. Hope to see longer videos more often!! 🙏💯💪🫡🔥👑🐐
Wow ! One of the best reviews ever . All because of the story being told . I'm 68 and actually was born in Brooklyn and lived on Ave J and Ocean Pkwy . Moved to KIngs Point in 57 , but my grandparents stayed in Brooklyn, on 51st street , literally down the road . When we had pizza it was Di Fara's . Crazy good story and man who pursued and conquered . BROOKLYN IN THE HOUSE !
Great story and storyteller. If there's anything I learned from this guy, it's never give up. Keep pushing, and one day, you'll get what you're fighting for.
As a Dominic who also used to make pizza I feel as if I was put on earth to do it and many other Dominic’s before me have felt the same way it seems. Cheers!
Having the back story of Di Fara and all that history that would have otherwise been lost is just amazing. Dave does great work enabling stories like this to happen through the lens of a pizza review.
I forgot I was watching Dave’s pizza review I was so into this story true Italians use there hands and atleast put there hand on you’re shoulder 15 times during a story. God I loved this video it just kept getting more interesting. You know a story is good when you start tuning out the noise in the background and just completely focus on one person.
This guy's story is better than 99% of the movies being released these days.
Where's the T and A?
All of them hollyweird freaks
Fr. It's like he's narrating a Scorsese film 😂
As I was kicked directly into a marvels movie commercial…….99.9. I hate correcting people, but I think you’re absolutely right, just off by a smidge….
Hollyweird freaks
One 7.9 that Dave can’t stop eating. Everybody knows they deserved the 8.1
8.3 even. Yeah, that's right.
7.9 is a high score for a pizza that thick
Looked amazing but could tell right away was gonna be a bit too cheesy/thick for daves personal taste.
Yeah I knew it was doomed sub 8. You can’t use cheese and dough and get higher than a 7.9.
He kept eating it to make sure he had the right score out of respect for the name. It was never an 8 pie just off the look alone. If they left it in a little longer and crisped up then sure
No crisp...or it would have been.
When an older Italian-American wants to tell you a story, you sit down and listen. The best
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
That guy def aint Italian. Jew all day.
7.9 Pizza, 10.0 Story.
Rookie score
Meh, he didn't make it personal enough.
He robbed him for the name? The story’s bogus
??? That story was horrible
More like 7.9 pie BS story. What a loadashite.
They don't tell stories like this anymore. That was refreshing, loved it!
And it's not just the story itself. It's the cadence of the speaker. The rise and fall of tone, the rhythm of the speaker. I could listen to this dude banter for hours.
They don't? I could have sworn I just watched that old man Albert drop a great story on Dave's ass.
I hope Marty Scorsese is taking notes of this story scene for his next movie. What a gem.
I got the vibe of his movies also
martys bout to beg joe pesci to come back for another movie lol
That WAS Marty
A Brooklyn to Vegas mobster movie focused around money laundering and pizza. I'd watch that.
"Come on in buddy ill pour you a drink" - Favourite line of the video
Hahahaha exactly! Such a Brooklyn move. Love it
Hahaha me too.
In the time it took Prez to finish that conversation he lost half the cheese from the pizza
the loss of toppings inaccurately skewed his rating.
Great content and story
Total goof move
It's criminal to lose all that yummy cheese! He should have picked up a new slice for judging.
Stop talking and eat! 😂
He's done this at least 10 times that I've seen. Everybody knows the rules.
Dave meets an older version of himself, everybody knows the rules!
After the video the old man hands Dave an all leagues sports almanac for 2024/2025. 2028: Dave is declared POTUS
He’s not as angry as Dave. He waited his whole life for this moment to tell his story.
Chefs kiss my friend Great comment!
@@RyanMcAndrewsnice reference.
@@Woozlewuzzleablemore like he tells the story over and over and over and ove
This was a real treat, thank you for letting him tell his tale.
I'd love to just sit down with that owner and listen to his stories. He's got a ton of passion and it comes through in every word.
I swear New Yorkers and Italians could tell a story about paint drying and be the most gripping/entertaining story I’ve ever heard
This man seems like the sweetest thing... almost makes me tear for some reason. God bless this man
All the storytellers I grew up with who taught me everything I know are all gone now and they all remind me of this fella. A dying breed. God bless
This guys a hell of a story teller
Emphasis on “hell”
Prez just letting all the cheese fall off while he yaps
Everyone knows the rules
Gawd that bothered me so bad lol 😂
I fucking cringe every time he does that! Lol
He only gave it a 7.9 because he felt as though there wasn't enough cheese 😂😂
@@sftrkrt07 dude I was thinking the same thing as half of it slid off before he bit into it. Dude is giving me PTSD cause of the way he eats.
this dude came straight out of a 1950’s classic, i love him
I could listen to a million more stories from that guy!
You know when the owner is name dropping De Lorenzo’s Tomato Pies and Di Fara that this one’s going to be good!
What a great owner. Kind, charismatic.
7.9 is a monster score for a Vegas pizza..
Not for a pizzeria that spent 8 years to get Di Fara’s secrets. Portnoy is not lying. I was born and still live in NYC and Di Fara’s is top 10 in the city. It’s a 9 pizza any day.

7.9 with Nevada water? 👀
It’s the best pizza in Summerlin. My go to.
Dude....yo could a gave him an 8.1. Come on!!!
He deserves the "8" bracket!!!
Yes, he does.
He had to go hard on him but if he had heard the story before giving the score he would have gone 8.6
@@shadow_realm47everybody knows the rule
The pizza there is a def worthy 8.2 plus IMO. Dave did them dirty! lolol
Riveting content. No stuttering, just a clear beginning, middle, end type of tale.
A real First Class Raconteur
I really like this video, I wish Dave you would do more of them. The stories behind the pizza business is awesome. 100% Best Pizza channel.
The cheese falling of is KILLING ME!
I know would it kill em to pick another slice?
Literally sitting there having a full conversation as all the cheese falls off is a rookie move
*off. Sry it killed me.
That pizza was way too cheesy. It was a soupy mess. A disgrace
@@McBain-qe2jh And it still looked too cheesy and heavy slop.

Right on, man. 100 percent agree, and I do the same.
Dave could have said no and not went back inside, but decided.. hey, let's hear it.
I'm not reading all of that.
The guy waited his whole life for this moment.
This is hands down one of your top 10 reviews!!!🎉😂😮
The old Italians are the ones with the greatest stories. My grandmother, God rest her soul, use to tell me stories of my family and our heritage. All the old crime bosses and the way it was in Italy and in Brooklyn. This guy is legit. Next time I'm in Vegas I gotta try this pizzeria.
Two guys, a cameraman and a pizza place.
aka three guys, a camera, and a pizza place
A totally harmless comment describing the video, yet it gives off ominous vibes that I don’t like…
A tale as old as time
Your observational skills are otherworldly!
such an underrated comment. cheers!
Best story from this channel. Ever.
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen to him. Shows a lot of class; showing respect for your elders. Good job Dave. With how busy you are, and the money you have…. that can teach the younger men.
Good Job Dave.
Way to go Dave. You have a lot of respect to history and the pizza industry. Keep up the great videos and reviews.
What a story teller. Love this guy
Super Bowl hangover Dave? We’re glad you’re back!
FR. I started Googling whether Dave decided to stop using TH-cam or if something crazy happened. I have a problem
What a great episode! The story time at the end was absolutely a special treat. Being that I am from North Carolina, I had to listen to the story several times to understand what the heck the man was talking about. But, that’s what made it so much fun?
Keep up the good work…
We have a Di Fara in NC if you didnt know, Figured id pass that along. Cary NC
@@jxhn314 if the Brooklyn Di Fara is a 9.4 and the Vegas is a 7.9 that makes me think the Cary one is a 6.4
I really dont understand how everyone is thinking this, ive never heard a more boring story in my life
WOW!!!
That's an amazing story. Dedication to the game. Both sides of that conversation.
I need more stories from this guy.. incredible!
More stories! I could listen to this guy for hours.
The spirit of Dom is definitely still alive. I’m in Brooklyn right now…I still feel his presence. What a damn good story.
Liked the story, interesting to see how protective the family was about Dom's name and legacy.
Absolutely love this guy. He sounds like an Italian Timon, he's from Jersey, Dave is mesmerized and this video is longer than 3 mins.
What a great story
He seems like a genuine guy 😀
Great looking pie too
Love it! Good review and story. Daveys a class act for having this story posted.
El prez wishing this convo was done 3 mins in
The American dream and hard work. This guy knew what he wanted and went to work, working on how to become a great pizza maker from the best. Great story
honestly I was enthralled by the guys story
Great interview. These are the stories everyone needs to hear. Thanks.
Oh man he destroyed that poor guy with the 7.9. Ouch!
I love these little big longer than usual one bite videos... the stories & just feeling like you're kind of there yourself. Dave listens very well and soaks in all the history. Hope to see longer videos more often!! 🙏💯💪🫡🔥👑🐐

Great insight into old school.
‘Come on in buddy I will pour you a drink’. Fucking love this guy.
Great tribute to a great man! RIP Dom
Missing that Brooklyn water! Would have been an 8.4
Details on point
What a great story teller
Omg that cheese pull just falling as he spoke 😂 had me shouting out! One bite before it all falls out……!
Great story and storyteller. If there's anything I learned from this guy, it's never give up. Keep pushing, and one day, you'll get what you're fighting for.

I love old stories. This is gold
This is my go to in the city too. Great stuff
Having the back story of Di Fara and all that history that would have otherwise been lost is just amazing. Dave does great work enabling stories like this to happen through the lens of a pizza review.
Ed Bassmaster never ending story lmao
This guy knows business... Takes his time with the story...every second is a mouthwatering advertisement for his shop!
The man could make his story into the movie Scarface but only about a pizza restaurant.
The stories behind some of these spots are truly amazing
We need a pizza movie just like this guy described.
Wheres the wrap it up machine from the chapelle show when you need it 😂😂😂
White Plains, NY...Westchester Cty...Hell yeahh...
This is a lesson in persistence. What a great story!
Try Evel Knievel's place on Freemont in Vegas. It's called "Evel Pie" One of my favorite places for thin.
Evil pie is legit NYC slices. Rebel pie off Eastern near Seven Hills is solid also
Really cool hearing stories like this and watching your interaction with him.
Scorsese's next film better be based on this guys story 😂
Would be so great
It's almost as long.
Everybody knows that pizza is a solid 8.1. Everybody knows that story alone is worth an 8 or above. What a gem of a human being.
> All the toppings fall off while Dave stares in the other direction
> Eats the piece without any toppings
What a great segment...great find and great story Dave!
"cocktail waitresses, two at a time!"
lol this guy and Dom def banging cocktail waitresses two at a time.
I’m glad they included the story. Now I have to go get some of the pizza.
LETTING THE CHEESE FALL OFF THE SLICE LIKE A FUCKING SHMUCK!! PUT THE FUCKING SLICE DOWN DAVE!! IDK WHY THAT SHIT MADE ME SO MAD BROOO
I was thinking of di faras today. Best pizza review imo. And loved hearing this story
This was agonizing long to listen to for a 7.9 . . . . . . .
This story needs to be a movie!!
One long snoozer of a story...everyone knows the rules
This was the best Barstool pizza review ever. More of this please.
That was exhausting...
best one stop vid ever by farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
This is reminiscent of Putin telling Tucker the history of Russia.
exactly. Next week the history of Italy.
love that Dave listened to the story! Very kind of Dave.
Valued the man and the story of the business
Is it always just a cheese pizza?
sometimes
@@Toddheenan802 never, this is the first time...
Yes unless no
Everybody knows the rules.
It's always a cheese pizza, although there's been at least 1 time he got toppings, the owner was trying to impress him, he wasn't impressed!
Is it always just a topping-less pizza??
I have a similar inquiry!
Cheese is the gold medal slice do you live under a rock
He always gets cheese!
Sometimes it's topping-less, sometimes it's pepperoni hold the pepperoni, and sometimes it's just plain cheese. Dave likes to mix it up.
Always….
I could listen to that guys stories all day long, amazing!
longer vids dave!! pls!!
Whoever is doing the shirts is doing a good job. It made me come try and find this whole video
I love how Dave just listened, and seemed to enjoy it. Enjoyed the pizza too.
This guy needs a documentary!
This story is the best thing I've seen on this channel. Great stuff.
i could listen to his stories for days
Thanks for showing us the story! I loved seeing this. The story makes the pizza sometimes.
I forgot I was watching Dave’s pizza review I was so into this story true Italians use there hands and atleast put there hand on you’re shoulder 15 times during a story. God I loved this video it just kept getting more interesting. You know a story is good when you start tuning out the noise in the background and just completely focus on one person.
Dave has that look on his face “this old man won’t stop talking” 😂
Used to live 5 minutes from this place and enjoyed their unique and traditional pies!
Might go down as an all time best video
