Anyway you slice it, Connecticut is the pizza capital of the U.S. And with New York and New Haven battling it out, News 12 Connecticut decided to do a little taste test of our own.

First stop: Fairfield. Nauti Dolphin has been the upper crust below the tracks since 1999. Their specialties are the Spicy Sow and the Commuter, but they also bake up a delicious clams casino pie.

Next stop: Renato's New Haven Style Pizza in Westport. Renato's is a bit newer to the pie scene, but this brick oven pizzeria bakes up pies to New Haven-style perfection. Specialties include the Firecracker and the Frank Sinatra.

Our final Stop: Roseland Pizza in Derby. This iconic gathering spot has been baking up "abeetz" for 90 years. Signature toppings, such as homemade sausage and freshly-sliced vegetables, make a perfect pizza to remember.

Whether you prefer Chicago, New York, New Haven, Greek, thin, thick, square or round ... just follow the CT Pizza Trail, where true love can be found.
