There's a couple of those in Indy. My issue is they like to bake it and it sits for a while. They throw your slice back in the oven when you order so it gets a little dry. It's best if you wait until they take it out of the oven to really enjoy, but that could be a while depending on how busy they are.

Of everything you could say about Sbarro...THAT is your complaint?!?!?!?!?!

In college I did a summer semester in the Dominican Republic. We had talked to people who had recently spent a semester in the country. They raved about the corn topping on pizza. We ordered it, took one bite and knew that we had been duped. I’m almost certain it was field corn.

10 best pizza places I've had, in no order. Would score these all above a 9.0 out of 10 on my pizza rankings.

DeNino's of Staten Island
Di Fara of Brooklyn
Sally's in New Haven, CT
Frank Pepe in New Haven, CT
Adrienne's square slice on Stone Street in Manhattan
John's of Bleeker in Manhattan
Pete and Elda's in Neptune, NJ (Bar Pie)
Vic's of Bradley Beach, NJ (Bar Pie)
Lee's on Staten Island (Bar Pie)
L&B Spumoni Garden square Sicilian in Brooklyn

New Haven, CT is the best pizza-city in the USA.
And here I always thought Dave Portnoy was an scUM fan…

Can honestly say the only places I went to because of a review of his was making New Haven a must stop. My GF lives 10 minutes from Denino's and 5 minutes Lees. The ones I mentioned in NJ I've been going to since I was a little. We get pizza at the office from John's whenever we order in.

I will say, one of the better ones that would be close to this list is a Detroit style place in NYC is called Lions and Tigers and Squares... never been to Detroit though so no idea if it's like the real thing.

One of the more interesting ones that AB2's post about the corn pizza made me think of was a mustard pizza. Actually very popular in parts of this area. They mix it into the sauce. Wouldn't go out of my way for it, but some people love it.

Greater Cincy has seen a boom in pickle pizza... ranch sauce base with pickles and cheese baked over top.

I haven't felt the calling to try it yet lol.

My man. Pretty good list. Worked in Brooklyn by DiFara for a long time. The old man cutting the basil was awesome. Johnnys in Mt Vernon is good as well. I disagree on two points. The New Haven BS and the L&B upside down slice. Most overrated pizza I’ve ever had. Totonnos I’m Coney Island was legit too.

Holy Crap! I came on here thinking I would see something on Dante and it turns out to be a pizza pie palooza! Should a new thread dedicated to this passionate subject matter exist all on its own? I think discussing which chain is the shittiest which is more appropriate than which is the best since it is a discussion of the lesser of various evils.

I would suggest that individuals who know good pizza offer up their favs and the city and state they are located. Can be separated into thin crust, deep dish and in between.

Thanks a lot guys. Now I’m friggn hangry!
Here’s a few I made for the game the other night. I call them Victory Pies! Not perfect shape but they still taste the same.

Are you actually questioning New Haven Style pizza? I live in NE PA and travel to NYC and New Haven for business often. The problem I have with the list is that Modern in New Haven should be on the list. New Haven pizza overrated stfu!

You guys are going to think I’m crazy with this one but trust me. There’s a pizzeria every corner where I’m from and I’ve had slices from them all. There’s one place that does a grandma pie (basically a thin crust Sicilian) with those greasy ass pepperoni cups drizzled with some hot honey. Try it for yourselves if you can. And like an earlier poster, I’m so addicted to pizza I have my own pizza oven at home and make my own wood fired pies.
“Mamas Too” , with the cup and char pepperoni !!???

The pizza takes in this thread are gross and quite frankly disrespectful to the eye-talian Americans on this board. Mama Mia.

When I was 16 I made pizza at a place called Davincis in Elkhart. Great crust and pie as well.

Grew up in the Northeast. The best pizza is always [insert local place where you would go after basketball practice or pickup and bring home—almost never delivery because it’s not worth the delivery fee being so close by]’s Pizza. They always had the loud ass fan that sounded like a jet engine you could hear from the outside, smell the dough before you walked in, green and pink neon lights around all of the windows, had faded pictures of Italy on the walls, and a staff that barely spoke English. Don’t forget the little ceramic fat man holding up a pie in a chef’s hat. Bonus points if they served a Buffalo chicken or penne vodka pizza. Their wings were probably pretty good too, but you’d only ever get those for the super bowl.

Having transplanted to Chicago…Pequod’s is the move. Pub style thin crust cut into squares is just okay.
