New Haven Royalty Arrives: Sally's Apizza Opens Its Doors in Dorchester!

Boston’s vibrant culinary scene just got a legendary upgrade! Sally’s Apizza, a name synonymous with iconic New Haven-style pizza, has officially opened its highly anticipated first Massachusetts location right here in Dorchester. As of Monday, May 20th, pizza aficionados no longer need to trek to Connecticut to savor the exquisite, coal-fired perfection that has garnered Sally’s a revered spot in the hearts of food critics and enthusiasts alike.

Nestled within the bustling South Bay Center, Sally's Apizza brings an authentic taste of its 86-year legacy to the Bay State.

For generations, Sally’s has been a cornerstone of New Haven's famed pizza rivalry, known for its distinct 'apizza' style characterized by a thin, crispy, and often wonderfully charred crust, achieved through their signature coal-fired ovens. It’s a craft perfected since Salvatore “Sally” Consiglio first opened his doors in 1938, building a reputation for pies that are simple yet profoundly flavorful.

The expansion into Massachusetts marks a significant milestone for the brand, which has begun a carefully planned growth beyond its Connecticut roots.

While Bostonians have previously been able to enjoy another New Haven titan, Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana, in Burlington and Chestnut Hill, the arrival of Sally's intensifies the friendly 'apizza' rivalry, bringing a new dimension of choice to local diners.

Anticipation for Sally's Dorchester debut has been palpable, with news of its impending arrival generating significant buzz among residents and pizza lovers across the region.

The opening promises to be a culinary landmark, offering a chance to experience the very essence of New Haven-style pizza without the drive. Prepare for perfectly blistered crusts, rich tomato sauce, and the unmistakable aroma of a truly exceptional pie – a taste of history now readily available in Boston.
