This thin crust bar pie institution in Stamford, Conn., is notorious for its no-frills demeanor, no-special-options policy, and for not making exceptions (though it occasionally bends the rules, as was the case with 2011's special Corned Beef and Cabbage Pizza for St. Patrick's Day).

Delicious. Worth the wait. I would say it's better to order in the restaurant as opposed to picking up for take-out.

The specialty, a Hot Oil pizza, is a local legend and has spawned a few franchised locations elsewhere in CT. The ambiance and experience makes seeking out this hole-in-the-wall original worthwhile.

The sodas come in tiny juice glasses. You're better off getting a pitcher if you like to drink a lot with your meal.

Always save at least 2 pieces for Breakfast. Cold Colony is the only thing better than hot Colony. If you eat your whole pie. Bring a Friend who doesn't eat a lot and take theirs home.

I reccomend the delicious sausage, peppers & onion pie. It's thin thin, thin crust, oily and every bite is packed with flavor. I'd say its no frills bar pizza that surprises you with it's tasty punch.

The stingers are serranos. Likely the source for the hot oil.. Rocking both is suggested unless you don't want it to rock.
