The thing is....that this pizza is so delicious and the crust is so great that it's still an 8 despite being sloppy...because the crust was NOT soggy. If the crust was soggy I would have went lower...
He uses the Mother…airborne yeast. The crusts I’ve had in New Haven seem pretty similar, this one was thicker…low hydration I’d presume… not too airy like many New Haven pizzas.
i agree that modern isn’t the tightest pizza ever made. and might not be one everyone’s radar as a topping, but the eggplant pie might be the greatest thing ever put on dough.
Hey, have you ever been to O’Scugnizzo in Utica NY? It’s supposed to be the second oldest pizzeria in the country and has a pretty good reputation. I’ve never seen anybody do a serious review of their pizza and I’m pretty curious about it. I’ve been meaning to ask about it.
Nah, I was there several days. I did a burger review too. It was too much food, and too much pizza for my health. I had salads for other meals. My next trip I will do BAR !
Very accurate review. Modern is my favorite tasting NH pizza but with that said, there is considerable flop. It's very crispy and floppy at the same time. That flavor though......
You should try pizza a go-go In st.louis. it's a greatly over looked place that has better pizza than any place I have ever had in missouri. This place looks very similar. The crust looks exactly like this.
Not sure if you caught it on utube..a group of 8 30 somethings from NYC reviewed 3 places in New Haven. The reaults..1 Modern 2 Sallys 3 Pepes. Some saying Pepe use to be easy 1 but has changed simce going change. Tc.
I heard that it's been inconsistent in recent years. I think they need to scale back that cheese a bit, I hardly tasted the sauce. Crust was excellent though.
@@pizzareviewsonthego Someome told me a couple of People left, and it has not been the same since. The last time I was there the dough was kinda raw, not fully cooked.
Could have used another 60-90 seconds in the oven. I can see that the dough isn't fully cooked under most of the cheese, that's why it's messy and flopping all over the place. I bet the leftovers would have heated up real nice in the oven though. Cheers.
Oh it was cooked everywhere else though but yeah, it looked light. I think its the oven technique, they aren't lifting the pies up high up in the air or something...
You got the right idea. But not 60-90 at those temps in those ovens. Its a matter of 10 secs +-. So im sure when they're its easy to get off by a few seconds.
@@piecesofme8531 remember New Haven has some of the best pizza in the country brother even a lot of the new places some of them are pretty good too the place that took over Humphrey's restaurant and bar they make a good pizza too
@@davidclark1896 No one takes pride in that type of stuff around here it seems. I notice that people are quick to demolish old buildings and build new ones. Same goes for ovens I guess. I find that there is more desire for preservation in other countries, such as European ones. But just speculation.
Hey Antonio how are you enjoy your time in New Haven for me it’s not my type reply I hate it when there’s all that cheese it comes right off like that or you would have to use a knife and fork to eat it, that’s just my opinion but you said it had a real good flavor right, i’ve had some pizza just like that but worse that Didn’t even have any flavor, by the way was just wondering usual make up a T-shirt so all your subscribers can buy it start a Merch store,
Ant, I’ve had 30 pie’s in the past 5 years.. I know the owner Bill well .. thru a friend he grew up with.. this pie is the worst I’ve seen them put out.. something going on ova there.. seen some garbage pies coming outta there on pizzaholics..I love Modern.. just speaking the truth..
I recall reading a lot of negative feedback on Pizzaholics regarding Modern recently. I think Bill should do some quality control because this pizza would have been in the 9's if made like it should be.
Sorry everyone but SALLY'S is still the king just ate there last night with my wife and kids and my god its so good its not even fair the tomato sauce pie is on a different level no one is better then sallys
New haven pizza isn't for takeout you can but it gets ruined....you have to wait in line and sit there it's an experience it's not just food. People have been doing that every day for decades...the line always has great conversations Crack jokes about how it sucks to wait in line, talk shit, be a dick, hey thats new England.
Hey in a way New York is New England too except that the Dutch were here for a little while before being kicked out by the English and so yeah that’s why there’s a lotta dicks in New York as well! Lol
Modern rules and I love flop - Their pizza has the best ingredients starting with the dough - very light if you ask em to go easy on the Mozz- Nothing compares to Modern- Nothing.
So annoying that they gotta cut the pie into 20 slices . Like why? Just to be different. So dumb it doesn’t allow the cheese to sit on the slice. Poor kid’s tryna fold it like a NY slice and he can’t 😂
I told you 3 times why they cut them like that, go watch my Pepe's review with Al. I think a wider slice would be better at preventing flop but I think this cheese would've slid right off anyway. Too much of it. I had a lot of pizzas heavy on cheese, such as Scarr's and it never slid off, as you already experienced yourself. I think they need to put some flour on the dough...I dunno...
I agree...although the pizzas aren't my favorite. I love Best Pizza and DiFara better, the oven at Best is 101 years old. DiFara when done right is unparalleled in the thin-style pizza world.
@@FireinTheBowl well was that one time or was it did it happen on a few occasions cuz you can get somebody that's new that is making the pizza that will totally mess it up but if the brothers are there and they make the pizza it's still the best
Yes! I was waiting for you to review Modern! Awesome, bro!
Sloppy just like people! Another great video! Thanks for shooting this one! Not sure I would have been that generous with the score.
The thing is....that this pizza is so delicious and the crust is so great that it's still an 8 despite being sloppy...because the crust was NOT soggy. If the crust was soggy I would have went lower...
I love this channel because it’s a up close detailed review.. dough talk . plus I like the hot slice then the cooler slice..
Thanks for the feedback.
The best in New Haven!!!! Don’t know what happened you have to double BACK🔥🔥🔥Great review and pizza content 🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕💯
I dunno man, loved the taste of this pizza but next time I'm going light on cheese.
That dough is definitely naturally fermented. I think they might be the only ones in New Haven doing that.
He uses the Mother…airborne yeast. The crusts I’ve had in New Haven seem pretty similar, this one was thicker…low hydration I’d presume… not too airy like many New Haven pizzas.
Years ago they were using Liuzzi Cheese. I was picking up my takeout order when the Delivery Truck was in the lot. Not sure if they still use them
Man, I need that cheese! Thanks for the comment.
@@pizzareviewsonthego You're welcome.
Modern has been my favorite since my first try in 1980.
Excellent video explaining in simple language
Really like the way you make poolish look easy
Well done 👍
i agree that modern isn’t the tightest pizza ever made. and might not be one everyone’s radar as a topping, but the eggplant pie might be the greatest thing ever put on dough.
Oh I will be back there ! I'll consider that one or the potato one...
@@pizzareviewsonthego why not both? 😎

Thanks for that recommendation! I gotta check them out.
My old man us from Utica and this place is his favorite.
Did you do Bar in New Haven? I may have missed it if you did.
Nah, I was there several days. I did a burger review too. It was too much food, and too much pizza for my health. I had salads for other meals. My next trip I will do BAR !
Bar suxx
Very accurate review. Modern is my favorite tasting NH pizza but with that said, there is considerable flop. It's very crispy and floppy at the same time. That flavor though......
That is not "new haven style".. That is PIZZA ROMANA TONDA (Roman pizza pie) how was used to be till 80's 90's!
Have you done Colony Grill? Great bar pie.
I have heard yes, no, never had it. I tend to put bar pies on the backburner, I tend to rate them low.
@@pizzareviewsonthego Don’t rush to Colony, it sucks. Frozen dough canned mushrooms etc. Roseland it Derby definitely worth the drive.
@@thomasnodine9188 To be honest I never felt like I should rush to Colony grill...
There's hidden gems all over Connecticut. Try Marco's and Capone's in Branford
Ill look into it...thanks.
Enjoy your reviews.
Head to Robbinsville NJ for Trenton Stle Tomato Pie. Papa ‘s. In my top 3 all time.
I already reviewed them...I loved it.
Park Tavern East Rutherford.
NJ.
Calabria Livingston NJ
Both great.

I've seen them all !
Modern Apizza uses semolina, not corn meal.
Their crust is insanely good.
Ahh, okay thanks. Hard to tell for me. I figured it was one or the other. And yes, I agree. Phenomenal crust!
They use plain bread crumbs
I would like this pizza because it has a lot of cheese on it!
Indeed you would John, indeed you would!
It was great, and my place to get pizza, back in the day but unfortunately that place went way down hill.
I heard that it's been inconsistent in recent years. I think they need to scale back that cheese a bit, I hardly tasted the sauce. Crust was excellent though.
@@pizzareviewsonthego Someome told me a couple of People left, and it has not been the same since. The last time I was there the dough was kinda raw, not fully cooked.
As much as I wanted to like Modern, the pie was oily and floppy both visits and that was dining in. Real shame because it has such a great reputation
Indeed...someone told me you have to order it light on cheese so it holds up better.
How about doing a review on Pepe's Pizza in New Haven
I reviewed them 3x, and twice in New Haven.
Enjoy ur video, like ur Recommendations
Could have used another 60-90 seconds in the oven. I can see that the dough isn't fully cooked under most of the cheese, that's why it's messy and flopping all over the place. I bet the leftovers would have heated up real nice in the oven though. Cheers.

You’re in my city. And I haven’t even had Modern yet.
Order it light on cheese if you feel like you agreed with me here.
That's sad
@@davidclark1896 Yes, it’s upsetting me and my home girl.

The best Pizza in Connecticut. Hands down…. I have never had a pie like yours from there ….
I'm pretty sure that they use Grande whole milk mozzarella

Didn’t even have any flavor, by the way was just wondering usual make up a T-shirt so all your subscribers can buy it start a Merch store,
Had a great time in New Haven, lots of things to do there. I don't have a Merch store yet, but am thinking about giveaways...
I gotta make a trip to new haven
Worth it. I can't wait to go back.
You know what kind of cheese it is?
Try olde world apizza in North haven ct.!
No, I don't recall what cheese but I obtained lots of information from the Pizza: A Love Story documentary.
@@pizzareviewsonthego thanks man ill check it
Btw..what is your fave mozzarella for pizza...I got mine!!
Modern is my go to never got one as sloppy as this, sucks they served you a “bad” one

I'd say it's the best crust I've ever had. They just need to hold back on all that cheese. It's just my personal preference.
Probably Grande cheese .. top of the line in my opinion..
Yes that's good cheese and the brand Lioni for the fresh mozz.
"Apizza" 🤏
I can deal with the mess.
A better balanced cheese/sauce ratio would have propelled this into the 9’s. Cheese people will love this more .

Howard pizza on chapel street is the best in New Haven
Need recommendations for my next trip! Thanks!

Snob pizza country
Sally's is still the king followed by Pepe's

Sally's use to be my favorite. Mot the same. Dry, no cheese or sauce. It's a shame

@@FireinTheBowl I'm sorry to hear that my friendthere's a lot of good pizza in the Haven though just try and try other places
you def make top 5 worst noises while eating i have ever heard .. work on that …
There already is a pizza review guy, everybody knows the rules!
8.1?
It was just too messy, personal pet peeve. I still enjoyed it highly.
