Dayton Street Apizza - New Haven, CT

The owners of Dayton Street Apizza grew up eating pies from New Haven’s Big Three, and theirs is very similar but with no lines, no waiting: rich sauce, sparse toppings, and thin ‘n’ crispy crust. Like Frank Pepe’s across town, they also use fresh clams for their pies. A full selection of Foxon Park sodas is available, and Dayton Street also sells their own jarred pasta sauce. But are they better than the Big Three? Order a couple of specialty pies and decide for yourself.
