You're in the ballpark, and you want to eat good food. This is a good slice of pizza - not awesome, not nouvelle-gourmet, and it's not going to bring back memories of walks in Naples or of Famous Ray's. It's a good slice of a basic snack food - decent dough, good toppings, it is as good as it gets while standing up!
The ballpark's best salad is here, too - it's a Caesar, and it's not fabulous, but it's green and satisfying enough for stadium food. -

Tasty wild mushroom slices at Safeco field, plus (drumroll...) expensive beer!
Way better than the "high cheese" pizza elsewhere in the stadium, which has something like a pound of heart-clogging cheese on each slice.
Plus any slice that features mushrooms is a good thing in my book -

First, this is no way anything like a New Haven style pizza. Granted, it's the west coast and this is the ballpark version, but this isn't even close.
I'm still giving it 3 stars though because at $7.50 (which would normally be insane for a slice of pizza, but for a ballpark is only a little bit crazy), it's actually a great deal because even though I didn't actually weigh it, I'm 94% sure that slice weighed at least 3.7 pounds, which was obviously very filling and prevented me from spending another $742 on additional food and booze (okay, I still had another beer, but was relatively sober afterward, which always equates to more savings, except that I'm still out several hours later, which, mostly negates that, run on sentence, comma abuse).
Also, it tasted ok. Better than most ballpark pizza. -

Since everyone else reviewing Modern Apizza in Safeco Field so far says they grew up outside of Boston, and have been to New Haven, Connecticut to eat real New Haven apizza--they're experts!--I figure I better chime in.
I grew up in Bridgeport and Stratford, Connecticut and lived IN New Haven. Been to the trinity -- Sally's, Modern, Pepe's. Also, all the other places with decent pizza across the area; the New York pizza (go to Big Mario's New York Style Pizza on East Pike on Capitol Hill, it's legit), the Boston pizza, the Long Island pizza, etc.
Is this the same as eating a slice of Modern Apizza in New Haven? The same exact taste, texture, flavor, seasoning? No, because you're IN SEATTLE. It's like complaining that the frozen White Castle sliders we get out here aren't the same as a White Castle off of I-95 in New Jersey. Of course it's not, because you're IN SEATTLE.
This pizza, depending on the slice -- I ate there at least six times last season -- is 90% to 99.2% true to the pizza served at Modern in New Haven. Yep, 99.2%. I lived there, I know what I'm talking about.
Short version: it's really damn good pizza on the field level behind Center Field. I can't wait till my kid is old enough to eat pizza that is 99.2% of the glorious back home pizza I used to eat.
I would give the Safeco Modern Apizza five stars, but the cruel, evil, vicious bastards do not offer a white clam pizza (a pizza topped with litteneck clam meat). They're lucky I don't give them 0/5 just for that! Mortal sin! -

When the announcer said "New Haven style pizza is available at APizza" at the game last night, I was a little confused.
But yes, for $5 you can get the best slice of pizza at Safeco Field at the ballgame.
I grew up in Boston, I know what real pizza is supposed to taste like, and this pizza is not good.
It's not great.
It's spectacular.
It's the real thing.
It's what I've been waiting for all these years after all these years of this weird stuff they call pizza here in Seattle, with the exception of Village Pizzeria in Langley, on Whidbey Island.
The other slices of basic disgusting ballpark pizza are $7.50. But Modern Apizza, a remote outpost of a local pizza place in New Haven, CT--really? offer the least expensive and by far best food at Safeco.
Get a $15 or $20 ticket, pay $5 for a slice, including tax and they don't have a tip jar. Don't even bother staying for the game and you'll be very, very happy.
