LOL I thought the same thing. I watched the review this morning and Dave was like "owner in there didn't even look up at me, couldn't give a fuck. I respect that" And now as im watching I thought owner sold out and has media attention and still doesn't give a fuck . AHAHAHA
He knows the rules. A 9.1 where he keeps his @$$ inside and not breathing down Dave’s neck while he scores is a REAL 9.1z I warned him in the comments of the original Review to triple his truck order but he didn’t listen. He underestimated the power of the Prez
@@freedman3912 getting a review like that is the opportunity of a lifetime If the pizza man were to just ignore this opportunity that would be a shame If he invests his money probably he could take over his local area The attitude of quality over quantity is a lazy man way Up production treat staff properly Nd he will retire 20 years early and his name will go down in pizza history

I would never be able to find it, but within the last two months there was a review where Dave said the owner didn't want to serve him a pie because he was afraid of the increase. Sure enough, awesome pie.
The owner still didn't give a flying fuck while being interviewed! Haha! Love it! He still got his head down busy making pizzas! Man got his priorities straight! Mad respect!
Fair play to Dave Portnoy, I’ve seen countless reviews and he reviews honestly and fairly. Seems like a genuine guy too. Well done to this pizza place also. 9.1 is an incredible score if you know how Dave scores pizza
guy took one bite and literally left the rest, when every other review he goes for multiple bites. probably just in a good mood. his scores make no sense and have zero consistency.
I don't always agree with every point of view Portnoy, but that dude is a legend imo for helping out small pizza shops. He's brought a lot of people a lot more than they ever would have had. Hell, even I have a list of pizza places per state that I have to try going on from watching that dude all these years. lol
Yeah, they're so used to being fake and artificial that doing something authentic looks robotic. Like, Dave's done thousands of these reviews, and he gives zero fucks about how he looks.
Exactly. Most people I’ve seen eat who are on tv a lot eat like absolute weirdos. They act like the world is going to come to and end of someone sees them with sauce on the side of their face
@@bobcalifornia9622 Yea tbh those New Haven pizzas dont look like they have any 'complex' flavors really, just a very specific type of pizza. Lucali seems like it would be considered great by everyone who tries it.
The irony is that during the review the owner was actually so busy he never even gave Dave the time of day or even acknowledged him. I said, this guy is about to find out real fast who he is and what a 9.1 review means lol.
We don't. Shits been insane the last 3 days. We are literally already past quota for a "Good week" and got 2 days left. Wish me luck yo. And thank you for the kind words yall
I though the owner had a “I dont give a fuck” attitude just for the review. But seeing how he still doesnt give a fuxk when the news are there is gold🤣🤣🤣what a legend
False news. We appreciate every eye we've caught, and while it's been CONSIDERABLY busier, we feel up to the task, and willing to serve all our new guests!!!
I’m way down here in Louisiana and Dave has my family and I planning a whole vacation to go up there just to try some of his highest rated places. As a small business owner I respect Dave for what he is doing.
There's another recent review Portnoy did in Brooklyn where he called the owner a "pizza genius" and gave them a great score. My best friend lives one block from that place and had never heard of it or noticed it when walking by, so go figure.
Good stuff....really love to hear the success stories of small businesses & El Presidente helped put em on the map....that 120 year old oven, wow!...power to the people my guy!
That’s such a great story! Hey, I live in a town where there are many restaurants and it’s still hit n miss and they still use covid etc for excuses. You see a good quality product there and employees showing up for work! I only know small business and self employment. Good for them! Work hard, good quality product, pays off!
I've noticed over the last 10 years or so that Australian news has got more and more cringe. Now i see where it's coming from. That opening 10 seconds was like something out of Anchorman.
She was very cute. And portnoy surprised us during the crunch time on a Saturday. He didn't have time to really talk or acknowledge. We had deadlines to meet.
Maybe the news station called in advance and he could make the time for them? You did notice that he was baking all of the pizzas himself and really busy when Dave walked in, right? And Dave prefers it when the owner isn't hovering around him when he reviews...
@@PapagenoMF yeah, but dude didn't even look at Dave when he was there. Not that he didn't make time. He literally never acknowledged Dave's existence.
I agree but I also think that's not how it works. The owner is the creator of the pie that got him recognition. Those guys are actually just employees. Maybe get some bonus perks ( deserving) but make more money, nah. Steve don't give a damn!

Got a pizza there and it was one of the worst I've had. It was like eating a cracker with tomato sauce on it. We ended up throwing it out. Flour everywhere dusty boxes stacked the ceiling, spiderwebs, and dirty floors. I don't know maybe I just came on a bad day.
I live in Florida and he did a review of what he said is the best New Haven pizza outside of new haven... and the place is 20 minutes from me. He's GREAT for these hidden gems.

Yea right lol well only liberal sissies probably supporting and leftist buying since that review tbh

My man is more focused on making pizza and posthumous medical bills sent to Portnoy than the news reporter.
HAHAHA
Haha
Couldn't have happened to a better guy
Dave has to pay the mans medical bills now, everybody knows the rules
In the review video Dave straight up said that the owner was in there and "did not give a fuck" that he was there. Making pizzas is his sole focus.
Dave pays the medical bills everyone knows the rules
This is the way brudda
The owner could not care less, looks like he preferred it stay off the radar.

Amen!

@@papaya32 you make no sense
@@papaya32 100% his scoring is very inconsistent, I stopped watching his reviews after the 6th one, he's walking clickbait.

Same before I go on vacation I check out his app and map out the 2 pizza places I will go to
i know! like his beef with alex stein. That I didn't agree with.
Who cares, he’s a net positive on society which is more than 99% of Americans can say.

Dave has helped more small businesses than our government. God bless him.
💯
I mean our government kills small businesses and boosts mega corporations so yeah
ok fanboi lol
this comment was said a day before you and I'm sure that wasn't even the first.

One example of social media actually being a force for good.
Brah, if he gave it a 9.1, it must be FIIIREE 🔥 🍕
Yes, but the caveat is according to his preference which is thin, light, and crispy.
I need to try New Haven pizza to see if it's as fire as people say it is regardless of pizza preference.

I don't think it was a cold shoulder, maybe the guy didn't want to be annoying.
The owner is an artisan, he was focused on making a first class pie.

why do i feel part of the success just because i watch every single review dave puts out lol
