I Flew from Bari italy directly to New Haven CT to Visit the most historical Pizzeria in Usa
It started over a century ago when Frank Pepe made his way from the Amalfi Coast in Italy to New Haven, Connecticut with little more than his strong work ethic and the support of his wife, Filomena. Like many Italians, Frank had a natural love and appreciation for craft and quality, leading him to work for a macaroni manufacturer and bread baker in New Haven’s growing Little Italy neighborhood.
Driven by their entrepreneurial spirits, Frank and Filomena decided there was no better way to serve their community than with the humble product of their homeland, pizza (pronounced “ah-beets!”, in proper Neapolitan dialect). They started with two simple pies made from the best tomatoes, cheese, olive oil, and anchovies they could get their hands on, baking them in their behemoth bread oven, and sold for 5¢ each from their horse drawn carriage.
In 1925, as the popularity of their product grew, the Pepe’s decided it was time for people to start coming to them, leading to the opening of their own bakery at 163 Wooster St.- still known today as “The Spot”. Thanks to Frank’s dedication to the craft, Filomena’s financial know-how, and the couple's generous spirit, the pizza was a hit in the neighborhood and The Spot became a gathering place for those craving an authentic taste of home. As Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana flourished, so did the neighborhood, and the Pepe family became a mainstay of the New Haven Italian-American community.
Today, Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana has grown and evolved quite a bit, but his grandchildren (the current owners) have stayed true to the family recipe - including replicating the 14’ x 14’ coal fired oven at every new restaurant. Pepe’s continues to expand, sharing 98 years of family tradition and New Haven’s coal fired pizza with the world.

@@saccobello6516 If there was a true authentic pizza, it wouldn't even have tomato sauce right? Because I know the Spanish brought tomatoes to Italy just a few centuries ago from the Americas and before that I don't know what kind of sauce was used. Maybe an alfredo type sauce? Because Alfredo sauce on pizza is damn good too and I know pizza is much older than the tomato sauce style that is standard now.

Frank pepe: The tomato pie wasn't that good, but the clams are. i knew i should have gotten something with mozza on it. to me that is essential for tomato based pizza. Sallys is just as good. had a plain mozzarella + tomato pie. they should just call it pizza instead of trying to be different. kinda annoying and appears snobbish. new haven has good pizza, but not the best. NYC has the best pizza of all time for me. i dream of it. that is the capital of pizza that i compare all pizza to. i am from kentucky but when i visit my relatives in the city, they know to bring the best pizza from all over the area. i could eat pizza every day while i'm there.

Glad you got a chance to try Pepe's. The original New Haven location (actually, in the back of the parking lot is the original building - open evenings - it's called The Spot) is the best pie in the world. I had to design my own pizza oven (wood fired black oven instead of Pepe's coal fired white oven) and build it in my backyard when I couldn't make it down to New Haven regularly. I've found Pepe's other locations to be somewhat erratic in their product, but New Haven never disappoints. New Haven has the most experienced pizzaiolos. And after you've had a couple of pies, go next door to Libby's for cookies and Italian ice! If you're going there via NY, you should stop at Lombardi's in Little Italy. It's the first pizzeria in the United States and is where Frank Pepe got his start. It opened in 1905 and has some awesome pies (and some not so awesome ones too - all depends on who is working in the kitchen). Catch it on a good night and you'll get a sublime pie. Pepe's in New Haven is more consistent though and is a little different with Frank's tweaks to what he learned in NY.

In my life, I can recall traveling from Bridgeport to New Haven for our typical Saturday APIZZA night at Frank Pepe's. In those days, before I-95, it took a long time to get there on Route 15. But boy it was and still is worth the trip to the MECCA of APIZZA. Buy the way, in Connecticut, especially in New Haven Pizza is pronounced Ahh-BEEZA. (AHH BEETS). Notice also how they cut the pie at Frank Peppe's in New Haven on Wooster... in managable slabs not triangles. BTW we have an engraved, 50th year Frank Peppe pizza cutter wheel which was presented to my Dad back in the day. So glad you came to New Haven and your video and the hospitality they showed you was amazing. The "chew" of the crust and flavors are hard to describe, Yes? To all who watched, please make it a point to get to Wooster St... in New Haven. Thanks for this Vito! Art

Hi Vito. I really enjoyed your visit to Pepe’s. It always interesting to learn about other styles of pizza. I lived in Connecticut for 10 years and was told great things about “New Haven” style pizza. It’s not my favorite style. More like NY style pizza. I still like the classic Neapolitan style pizza, made with poolish fermentation the most. I would love to see you do a video on how to make Pizza Bianca Roman style pizza for someone using a home oven. I’ve looked up several recipes, but I know you will present the best recipes, with details that are so important.

Great video! Love Frank Pepe! Have it at least once a month in Massachusetts. Francis reminds me of Corrado Soprano, or Junior Soprano...

Watching this was close to torture. I’ve been hearing about Pepe’s for many years. People don’t realize the hard work and long hours it takes to be in this business, let alone being successful. Can’t wait to visit for a sit down . Chicago Chris

Thank you from Vienna (Austria) my dear Vito- I love your channel and have watched all your amazing Videos- I am obsessed with pizza and thanks to you, I can also make half way decent pizzas (I mean not as good as you!) for my family and friends- which I do a minimum of every week on my Ooni Karu pizza oven! Best regards, Alex

man I hate that most American's do not understand that the char brings flavor and it isn't simply "burnt" drives me nuts lol. I worked in a Sicilian style square cut shop for years when I was younger. The owner of the attached restaurant and Pizzeria was an older man who came to the US from Italy and built everything from the ground up on his own. I would soak up every single bit of knowledge he would drop in regard to cooking and pizza making. Taught me soo much that I still use when I cook at home. Pizza is a bit of a underappreciated art, everything has to be fast and quality is compromised at like a Dominos or Pizza hut. I cant even consider that pizza just dough with something slightly thicker then ketchup lol
