Dude. That's the best pizza review I've ever seen, you captured everything perfectly. I've been going to Sally's for 50 years, and have always felt that they are the pinnacle
of the "holy trinity" of NH pizza. You nailed it when you took the first bite of the pie without the cheese and recognized that it was better than the one with cheese. Only
the best of the best can pull that off, there is literally nowhere to hide with a pie like that. You understood that it's simple, but not so "simple". There is a magic to it that only
Sally's has. I could tell that you recognized it by the look on your face when you dug in. You knew in that moment that pizza, or maybe even food, doesn't get any better.
There is something "transcendent" about their pizza that makes everything else pale in comparison. The only negative is that they set the bar so high that it ruins eating
pizza in other places. As you mentioned, the "wheels of sadness" get even "sadder" after experiencing Sallys. Thanks for the interview, that was great and heartfelt.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️
I've never had New Haven pizza but want to try to make it in my Ooni. I understand it's a 70% hydration roughly. What makes the toppings unique? I hear the tomato pie is just tomato sauce, oregano, olive oil, garlic and pecorino Romano? Are the clam pies with mozzarella or pecorino Romano and olive oil and garlic and clams?
Wonderful comment! Describes Sally's perfectly! I'm a lifelong CT resident and just picked up a couple pies this morning and felt like watching Sally's while eating Sally's ! God bless you my friend!
A pizza that makes someone almost burst into tears has to be damn good.
Sally's, the real goat. Brought a tear to my eye seeing this review. Bless up
Me too ❤️ Thank you for being here. We really appreciate your time.
Matt
Me too! If there’s one thing we are proud of in ct it’s the apizza
New Haven,CT. Pizza capital of the world.
FRC has evolved into its own entity - truly a giant of food review now. These videos are amazing - the way you guys put the people and places on display is magnificent and the respect you show to each and every establishment is palpable. Keep it up lads
A genuine bucket list destination - I'm pretty confident this would be my 'final meal' choice.
Grew up around New Haven. Sally's is an absolute icon. I cherish the moments I get to visit and have it again!
So maybe it’s just dif taste buds but I’ve seen reviews from multiple people about this place…some say it’s really really good some say it’s just decent pizza but nothing special…heard it’s gotten inconsistent…idk
Awesome review! The chew difference is from the hard spring wheat. The guys coming over from Naples had different ingredients to go with the recipes they knew. So many places in the northeast with roots from Italian immigrants from Naples and Sicily are still standing strong. Hydration is higher than home by an extra 10-15% too. Appreciate the review. You would also love a Texas bbq tour.
Good review. In the pictures were Flo, Bob, Rick and Ruth, (Sal and Flo's first child and only daughter),who didn't get mentioned.
pizza looked great, review was bang on, bubble blowing was crazy "not a bad set of pins for an old bird.......was that gumball machine wearing a wig 🤣🤣
I love your videos on tiktok glad to see you review one of my bucket list spots
Heard spanish music in the kitchen, thats why its good. Hispanics make some of the best cooks. When they say its “made with love” ingredients + technique + timing = goodness.
very true!
Sue, I remember that gum ball machine in your room!
You have to catch Modern if you haven't already!
This would be right up my alley, I ALWAYS ask for extra sauce on any pizza and ask for it well done… I mean why can’t they just cook it a bit longer for the dough to cook properly and have a bit of crunch? Is that too much to ask? 😣
Lmao from the thumbnail i thought that Nico Leonard (the watch guy) has started doing food reviews 😄 the stuff looks legit tho!
Damn that wall of pictures and those booths are giving me flashbacks to my childhood. Grew up going to sallys, ill always remember flo sitting in the back booth handing out lollipops to the kids ❤
Sally’s is great (my fav, modern a close second) but what makes New Haven amazing and beyond compare is the number of great places is such a small area. Sally’s, Pepe’s, modern, Bar, Abate, Grand, Zeneli, Zuppardis, one6three…all amazing and each would be the best pizza place in almost any other city of any size.
Omg what an incredible place !! Wow !!
The reds are beautiful in that pizza. Always stuck out too me. God I wanna try it so bad 😂
Pizza trolling the prez !!
I have never had NEW HAVEN pizza and I used to be a Pizza Hut Pan Crust kind of guy and still love it. However, the best pizza is NEW HAVEN, NEW YORK and CHICAGO!
He rates pizzas similar to Dave can tell Dave inspired his reviews
Absolutely!!! He’s the goat, however we like to try and do it in our own style ❤️
Going in August. Did you get right in or call days ahead?
Wow The Mecca !!! Great video
Not the Mecca ...infact is over the best 100 pizzerias of the world
When did you go it was so empty?
First, I'm going to use the phrase "wheels of sadness"!!
Guy in the burgundy shirt looks like the singer Phil Perry 🎉🎉
New England, New York State, NYC - the only places you’ll ever find a good pie, good Italian. Don’t waste your time searching anywhere else.
True words!!
100% NYC and New Haven pizza. Nothing better
Wish I lived in New Haven. So much good pizza!
I know it's going to be amazing, you've got pepe's, Barr and modern too. Hope you do Louis lunch, oldest burger restaurant just dont ask for ketchup . 👍
You need to try the Other. New heaven places.
Is there a "Billy special" on the menu 🤣🙄🤣🤣🤣
Great review 👏
Please come to Phoenix, Arizona, USA for the best food in the world!
Never seen a bigger reaction from you Matt, where would you as an one of your best overall feeds?
I see it looks great. But I love cheese on the pizza. Hard to image sauce beats out cheese. 😮😂
This isn’t the Prez this is the secretary.
CT just has good pizza. Even where I live in Middletown. Mondos is the shit.
Middletown has great pizza. New Britain also has Marathon which is my favorite pizza place. Farmington has Naples which is really good. all over CT is great pizza
just realised you don't do the promo for small companies anymore, obvs making that big DOE ;] now i thought it was a nice touch
Sals don't pay for promo 🤣 one of the best rated pizzas in the world, being. Review channel you have to try new spots and review the most popular as well, just look at his belfast Reviews all small local spots
i love how he put his finger in cameramans side of the pizza, lets hope he washed them hands!
Need to get over to Detroit - Buddy’s
I know one in CA according to some locals in New Haven is better.
OMG - you're not really trying to copy Dave are you ...???
Yep
To expensive now, everyone looking to retire after a month of sales, greed and a shame
Just a couple things to mention here... Firstly, replicating pizza like this is close to impossible. For 2 main reasons. 1. The age of the brick ovens, and 2, the cost now... First off, Properly made and maintained large brick bread ovens like this get better with age. The char, coal build up on the walls actually allows for better convection of heat over time. Along with this, is the transference of that smokey, char flavor onto the bread/pizza that you just cannot replicate. The reason the Pizza's get this dark color is because of this. You notice, in a brand new oven, no matter what temp, you cannot achieve this color. Same reasons Delucia's in NJ gets the same dark color.... Right now, a large brick oven, of this size, made with proper materials of the time period(dense brick), would cost you $50,000 easy and maintenance on it is not cheap. It just is not easy or practical for a small pizza shop or even a bread making shop to build these anymore, when they can get modern stainless ovens for half the price with better heat dissipation. Working around these brick ovens is not easy and its super hot.
Everyone's a pizza reviewer these days.
Bro please try fireaway pizza Preston insane
Just leaving NYC! ON MY WAY 🚀
Are you in ny now or is this old??
bubble gum sue is a legend
screw the hipster places, this place speaks for itself. Love it!
I'm from Ct. and I've had excellent apizza all over the northeast and in Italy when I lived in Florence for a while, but there is just something about a New Haven pie done right that's just incredible.
dear that is GRAGNANO PIZZA STYLE : from where our compatriots came ...... and extended in some part of Italy : Legion Calabria, Lazio and Tuscany ... ;)
from CT and lived in florence for a while, now thats a story id like to hear
@@KenSalaga Lived a year in Florence when I was a kid. Have family in Naples and in Sicily. Been over a few times over the years.
Lived in Florence for a bit too. Beautiful city!
Where would you recommend to eat pizza in Florence? Other parts of Italy that most people don't know about? I love pizza.
New haven cop for 20 years. Wooster St was part of my beat so the police gym was a big part of my routine. Loved the pizza in Naples Italy, but New Haven is the BEST!
New haven is what? dude ....however that pizza style it has been forged in GRAGNANO (from where our compatriots came)... and developed from that area to legion Calabria,Lazio and Tuscany ! ;) and in New Haven ;) so call it GRAGNANO STYLE. it was used also for bakery and pasta ;)
@Gianni Fraioli Models And Advertising Management where it was developed, is one thing. Where it was perfected is another:)
If you ever make it back to New Haven, Pepes, and Modern Apizza are absolutely worth re-visting for. IMO - Sally's stands on it own, but the other two are fantastic as well.
If you're not from CT, each one would be the best pizza you've ever had. But if you're from the area, you know 🤟
I drive 5 hrs for Sally’s on the regular… like literally drive there and then come right back home 😂😂😂(10 hr total drive time)
Jesus
It isn't worth that type of drive just to eat.
from where
@@rascal211 yes it is
@@jimmyg6531 from upstate NY
Your lack of words speaks volumes - it looks absolutely incredible. Can’t wait to see where else you guys are off to.
When the hype lives up to the legend! Fantastic mate! So pleased for you to be living the dream and going to these legendary places, meeting the people behind them, hearing the stories and seeing that the end product is a sum of all of it’s parts. Thank you for sharing your passion, it’s a joy to see!
I was born and Lived in New Haven CT for the first 18 years of my life,..you've done justice to Sally's! Its awesome to see a UK point of view, and love seeing you 'get it'. New Haven = Best Pizza in the US.
they have rise up the cleaning of oven! now is such a good product! an only think ;) that is GRAGNANO pizza style! (the area/district from where our compatriots come from) and expanded from there to legion of Calabria,Lazio (expecially an half trough Naples - Rome / Rome and its provinces). THIS IS FOR WHY RILEY ... example FRANK PEPE ... uses texting again "PIZZA NAPOLETANA" (It is not the METHOD STG , BIGA, CONTEMPORARY , DIRECT BAKE SYSTEMS .... )
People say New York is better.
@@rascal211 NYC has great pizza but New Haven is way better. Sally's has been in the top five every year whenever they do their reviews of the best pizzerias in the USA. Every reviewer puts Sally's usually first but at the very least, it's in the top three or five. Look it up.
@@rascal211 Houston Texas has the absolute best Pizza.
@@emageful No way/ They don't even have the right water to make the dough right.
Welcome to this side of the pond! Enjoy your visit.
Fave review ever from FRC and I’ve followed from the very early days! You guys are smashing it 👍🏻
It had everything, superb food, ambiance and the place was full of very special people. No question, the best video thus far on this great channel 👏👏👏👏👏
This is your best review so far imo big man. I want to tap my feet together, eat that fine looking pizza and talk to that dude. That looks an amazing experience.
Soon as I seen new haven wow proud of you food review club boys your going all out you know your food Dave’s best rated pizza capital of the world 😍 so excited but jealous
Thanks so much
Life long Connecticut resident here. Searched up sallys reviews to watch videos while i eat the sallys apizza i picked up an hour ago!!! Sally's is the best pizza on the planet!!!! I definitely think out of all the apizza greats, Sally's is the GOAT! It's the amazing sauce, the fresh mozz, but what separates sallys is the charred, crispy yet chewy at the same time crust. Its unmatched
Had the pleasure of working with Ray at Sally’s. He is the man. He’s worked at Sally’s for many years and has stories for days. He also makes a fantastic pie 😋
Totally agree, the food could be fantastic. But if the staff are shit its an awful experience. And these people were a pleasure to watch.
Grew up in CT. We'd go to New Haven for pizza every single year the day after Thanksgiving. It was a family tradition. We always knew it was the best pizza in the world, but it's so cool to see it get the recognition it deserves.
Ha I think all of us have the same experience. Have to go to New Haven every time we get back to CT.
Subscribed! You got the formula down - so brilliant go to these places and try them all with an open mind and open tastes. SO right about the “it’s not that simple is it?” - So many try to emulate it but we can’t. New Haven is truly an iconic pizza town. So glad you tried. Love to the UK!
You can't beat eating a pizza and listening to Sinatra in the background.
Sally's the closest thing to Heaven.
Why isn’t the camera guy getting to have any? Cruel and unusual punishment.
Weird isn’t it 😂
Does this guy just go where the prez goes lols
Lots of reviewers have been there ya sausage
Who's prez
I mean they try and find the best of the best for viewers? Granted Pres put a certain spotlight on sallys and that’s exactly why Matt and Callum no doubt came but that’s to confirm or deny how good these places are. Does pres go everywhere this guy does tho?
We were just desperate to come to this iconic place… like most people who love food tbf. And yes Prez was the OG inspiration for this entire channel. I’d like to think now though that we have evolved into our own thing but I can leave that for you to decide.
Thanks for being here though 💪
@@thomers2451 it’s not hard to understand you bellend
Ive got italian irish family and from growing up all the pizza we had was cheese tomato and always extra sauce.. it makes any pizza taste that so much better!! Even in the uk dominos i have garlic sace then extra tomato base then cheese and it makes it better!! Love to try sallys
Nothing is better than having the highest expectations and for it to exceed that. It can get you emotional. Only people that are foodies understand that
what wholesome people
You are not Dave Portney, though, I guess flattery is the best, whatever the saying is, lost my train of thought, can't blame it on weed or add, simply aging, though, I am only 57. Lol!
Having an argument with yourself there?
So great to meet the people; absolutely love this in the vids now. The US just do it on another level don’t they?!
I don't think any pizza can come close to a basic, down to earth tomato with a good helping of garlic...
I personally don’t need anything more… it’s perfect
Im from Manchester in the UK, but I remember going to Sally's Apizza after stopping in New Haven for a couple of days about 15 years ago on my way from New York to Boston. I will never have a better pizza anywhere in my life again, I know that for sure! Dominos can burn in hell for eternity after trying New Haven's pizzas!
Dominos😂😂
Domino's? If Domino's is the comparison, New Haven can't be that good lol I would hope New Haven Pizza would blow Domino's out of the water. So does New York, Chicago, Napoli etc. lol
Probably the best review I have seen, the passion is unreal
What a wonderful, welcoming community
I been waiting for this review, can’t lie❤
Great place, great people and insane Pizza 👏
Love these reviews, keep it going! 👍
Holy smokes... That perfect score.. Never saw that... 🇺🇸 Reppin well done
Fair play Matt and Callum this channel is flying awesome lads best reviewer on TH-cam.
This guy definitely doesn't know the rules.
Bro, if you sprinkled Romano on there, forget-a-bout-it, even better!
Personally, this is my favourite FRC review ever. Sallys is an icon
Does this bloke know the rules?
There are no rules.
Ct people go to Italy and say the pizza is meh for a reason.
I know why man 😂
It's like Chicagoans going to Germany and having various sausages/hot dogs... They might not be the originators but they perfected it
who ? what ? please do not be blasphemy
You compare that to the cheese and tomato naan bread type pizza you got in (I think nottingham), and realise how little Britain knows about pizza.
Ish dude 26 min vid. U don't know the rules
The bedt pizza is in N.Y. all has to do with the water.
Great way to start your pizza tour off. Hope it went well for you!
Two class acts right here. Great job, guys. Fellow brit with Sally's on his bucket.
It didn't look "saucy".
Home of the best pizza to who???
Ray is a legend. It's amazing how much time he spent chatting with you.
Had to like this video, great work. Looks the perfect place, balance, food, ambience, characters, vibes. Love this content, your best video congrats!!
Wheels of sadness hahaahahh
Come over from the Tiktok and the first vid I watch is from the town I was born in ! Love the channel guys! Keep it up
Awesome! Thank you!
best pizza on earth is made in CT.
