The Take
At Pinellas Pizzeria the clear order was always the cheese or pepperoni pie to highlight the thicker pillowy crust. Slop Score sits at 58 for a family-owned local joint with solid taste but thin details on oils and sourcing before it closed for good.
Nostalgia buyers chasing Connecticut roots and rave reviews got a decent pie experience while it lasted. The rest was standard pizzeria fare with no standout sourcing.
The Verdict
Pinellas Pizzeria served solid thicker-crust pies with Connecticut flair while open, but the lack of oil details and permanent closure make it irrelevant now. Skip it entirely.
Slop Score: 58
