"Though fraternal owners Kris and Jason Wallenta, who also run Dos Santos around the corner, opened this cozy Uptowner in honor of the New Haven–style parlors they grew up around in Connecticut, their menu is anything but beholden to tradition, East Coast or otherwise. Pies here come topped with everything from mashed potatoes, bacon, and candied walnuts to butternut squash, pumpkin seeds, and romesco sauce to Brie, Swiss, garlic crème fraîche, and smoked salt — and, with their distinctly irregular-shaped crusts, they look as well as taste as intriguing as they sound." - Gigi Sukin, Paul Albani-Burgio, Ruth Tobias
