I have been there many times and always take new people to Lombardi's! It's the best ever hands down!

I live in NYC and it's the best pizza anywhere! They don't sell it by the slice but if you go there with a friend, you'll eat the whole pie.

Connecticut has 3 pizza restaurants that ALWAYS make it to the top ten in the entire USA. All 3 are in the same neighborhood in New Haven, CT. They're called "The Holy Trinity". Pepe's , Modern and Sally's.

They have the original brick oven from 1905. Check it out!

They used to slice the long pie according to how much a factory worker could afford - how many Penny’s worth!

Workers used to warm up their pizza on steam pipes...

Been to Lombardi several times. Definitely a good New York pizza but it has grown somewhat commercialized. If you really want a great NY pizza head to John's On Bleecker Street. One of the best!
