Here we highlight the best pizza in Connecticut. 2022 edition!

We’ve traveled the state; North, South, East, West.

Tried as many as we can.

Put in the miles.

Put on the pounds.

It’s time for the best pizza in Connecticut!

#5: Colony Grill, Stamford

Address: 172 Myrtle Ave, Stamford, CT 06902

With it’s chewy, ultra-thin crust; it’s charred cheese edges; it’s hot oil, this pizza is one of the best in CT.

The Rating:

8/10

What happens next is we get into a lot of New Haven pizzas.

#4: Bar, New Haven

Address: 254 Crown St, New Haven, CT 06511

Cracker-thin crust, excellent toppings (only get 1 or 2 at most), and near perfect cooking make this a serious pizza.

The Rating:

8.5/10

#3: Modern Apizza; New Haven

Address: 874 State St, New Haven, CT 06511

This is the most perfect crust in CT. Toppings and sauce are all that’s holding this pizza back.

The Rating:

8.5/10

Now before we get to the best pizza in Connecticut, there are a lot of honorable mentions that nearly made the list:

Little City in Avon.

Brick & Basil in Norwich.

Zuppardi’s in New Haven.

E&D Pizza Company in Avon.

Sorella in Hartford.

Nana’s Bakery in Mystic.

All make a very solid pizza.

If you are near those places, they are definitely worth a try.

Now on to the winner…

#1: Frank Pepe’s; New Haven and Multiple Locations

Address: 157 Wooster Street, New Haven, CT 06511

There are multiple locations to this restaurant, and all are good.

But the New Haven location?

The OG?

That’s where to go.

The pizza tastes just a little bit better.

It was always going to be you, Pepe’s.

Can’t miss the Roasted Peppers.

The Rating: (New Haven Location; take off half a point at the outposts)

9/10
