Modern Apizza is another classic apizza spot in New Haven that’s easier to get a table at than Frank Pepe’s or Sally’s. While there are fewer tourists, the pies still have a wonderful bite and char to their crusts. We recommend the clams casino for a riff on the true New England classic, but you also can’t go wrong with the Italian Bomb, which comes with loads of meat and pairs well with the old-school Italian cool scenery of the wood walls and leather booths.
