Which of these places has the best pizza?

Of these chains we only have Domino's and Pizza Hut.
But I never eat my pizza in such a fastfood place, I always go to an Italian restaurant.

Bertucci's is a (mostly) New England area chain that has much better pizza than any of these that I've tried (except for my own).

None of these places has the best pizza.

In Boston, Bertucci's; in New York, a lot of places.

You call that crap pizza?

Sbarro is the most passable of those you list, but I'll stick with Bertucci's and Uno's, thank you very much.

Pizzaiolle. Its a local restaurant that I've been going to since I was a kid, they have amazing pizza there. There pizzas are cooked in a wood burning oven. They have this Pizza aux Escargots thats just terrific!!!

Pizza aux Escargots!! Wow, I'd love to try one of those!
I'm taking the plane tonight, Matt!

Is Donato's local to Cincinnati? I know Larosa's is and is very popular there.. although I don't like it. Is Godfather's still around? What about Noble Roman's?

Matt - Do you suppose those are the same snails you and your cousin raced?

Sbarro has incredible Calzones for a Franchise.
I prefer non chain Pizzarias. There is a place in town called Paccioni's. OMIGOD....Hearthfired Pizza and Calzones with exotic vegetables and gourmet Cheeeeezes.....

Don't forget. The two local breweries have mighty fine hearth fired pizza, too. (And better beer than Pacci's!)

Papa John's and a local parlor named Pudge Bros. (tie)

Nick's Pizza in Medford Mass. they really know how big the chunks of garlic should be.

Sue, they might, but they'd have traveled a whole lot ;) Those ones I raced was back in a little village in Provence... and there, most of the people there would go in the fields and pick them out and cook them, they were really good. So I'm not sure if a lot of them would have made it this far ;)

Vos, you wouldnt be disappointed hehe I've been enjoying that pizza since I was about 5!!! I still remember the waiters were really surprised when I'd ask for that hehe :)

Center Pizza, down the street from me. Actually, I like the Dominos near us too. I don't like Pizza Slut very much. Bertucci's is OK, though a bit too watery sometimes. I like Papa Ginos sometimes. I think I've had Sbarro pizza, but I can't remember.
I think an interesting thing to note is that I probably prefer Greek pizza to Italian. I like the thick, firm crust with pizza wedges that stay ridged when you hold them. My perception of Italian pizza is that it's quite soft and I have to roll it up to hold it, and I dislike that.

bill: If you think Italian pizza is bad on the floppiness scale you should *really* avoid Turkish pizza then Floppiness depends a fair bit on who's making it though, and if the types of pizza you see in American ads, sitcoms etc. are representative of American pizza as a whole (and since they're generally not even representative of American sitcoms let alone society as a whole I don't see why they should be...) then it seems a bit floppier than what we get here

Well of course homemade is always best. Of the others I'd probably pick local parlor...Sal's North End is awesome. Papa John's is the worst pizza I've ever thrown away.

Local

Brian, Denver?

mary: Yep.

My homemade pizza is not the best. It's passable and fun, but most pizza places near me do a better job.

My favorite is Papa Gino's.

Brian: I knew that, what area?

mary: The metro area. Think there are ones in Littleton, Ft. Collins, and Saudi Aurora, and the People's Republic of Boulder.

doom: Papa Gino's?!? Wow, you must have some really bad pizza places where you live.

Don't care, don't like pizza, never been to these places...

Mabe's. Good luck trying to find it anywhere but here.

Gus's

Because of this survey, I had to drive to Providence, Rhode Island so that I could have a pizza from Caserta Pizzeria.

It's a 50 minute drive each way, but the pizza is well worth it. Yum.

Analog.. so you live Outside Providence?

they: Good one!

Brian- she's a good crap

Papa Murphy's

poppa johns, for sure!!!!

Fast food chain pizza is crap.

LaRosa's

BJ's
