What kind of pizza do you like?

[Rondog4405]

Hands down best pizza ice ever had is from petrillos in san gabriel. Been going there since i was a kid and 40+ years later still havent found a pizza that even comes close.

 

[Flying_Lavey]

I don't know if it's the best for anybody, but the Naci and The Dragon at Rock 'N' Robles at Lake Nacimiento are some of the best pizzas I've ever had. I'm pretty sure @g.faulk will agree

A few years ago my Dad and I rode Scooters across the USA. NYC to SFO-LA. When we got to Chicago we had to go to Giodarno's for some Pizza (and a hundred beers), did not disappoint. I even took some to go and ate it across Iowa. Good times with my Pops. View attachment 821498 View attachment 821499

Although those aren’t my flavors, the process is spot on!

Next week I think I’ll start a homemade pizza thread.
I don’t have a brick oven, but I do them on my Traeger at between 450-500 degrees...depending on how it’s working that day.

Chicago Fire is a small chain here in the Sac area that can throw down a pie........
They have a two layer job that I get as a "stockyard" that is phenomenal.

i need a good crust recipe that doesn't stick to the peel when I try to slide into my egg.

 

[musicFunsun]

Pizza is my favorite food! There was a place in Prescott on White Spar in the pines, Papa’s I think, one of the better ones I’ve ever had. Here in So Cal, Romano’s in downtown Redlands is very good. Warehouse in La Verne is good, too. I don’t think found “the best” yet so I’ll keep searching

We typically use the dough from Trader Joe's. They're only $2.00. Add flour and corn meal. Corn meal on the peal is key. Like ball bearings. Don't let the dough sit on the peel too long. It absorbs into the dough and makes it stick. More corn meal on the stone too.

 

[riverrat4lfe]

Pizza on the Kamado Joe you can run it up to 900 to do a true Napoleon style pizza plus it also works great for BBQ and smoking

Try GROUND PEPPERONI on your pizza it changes the whole dynamic of the pizza

Hands down best pizza ice ever had is from petrillos in san gabriel. Been going there since i was a kid and 40+ years later still havent found a pizza that even comes close.

my parents dated going to that location. We hit up the one in Glendora from time to time. We usually buy from the location in upland they used to own and sold the rights to the current owners.

 

[GRADS]

He’ll no, had a previous Italian Girlfriend. One thing about all these ethnic girls, they know how to cook. I don’t have a figure like GRADS. Gotta watch that shit.

WTF does that mean?

 

[cofooter]

Best pizza I ever had was a deep dish pizza at a greasy pizza shop down by the lake in Chicago. Forget the name, only been to Chicago once, but damn was that a great pizza.

The kind that is in my stomach...

 

[78Southwind]

I have been know to make some home made pizza here and there. These i made with almond flour pizza crust.

 

[BajaMike]

Sonny’s is good. Tony’s Little Italy in Placentia is really good too. Ginas in Laguna or Irvine.

Sonny’s in San Clemente is mediocre at best......at worst its cardboard.....has been for 30 years. Try Surfside Pizza (down by DMV in San Clemente), the very best in South OC, with anything you want on it. I like pepperoni, black olives, Italian sausage and mushrooms.

The owner (Kenny) used to run Stuft Pizza in San Clemente. He delivers.

 

[rvrrun]

Red West, Rosati's, Papa Leone's in that order for basic pizza. For a "weird" pizza, it's the chicken ranch from Rizzo's.

 

[infield]

Gambinos. It is a midwest deal. Franchised places always in a building that housed something previously or maybe some strip mall. Best crust ever and the dessert pizza is unbelievable.

 

[Willie B]

...Marri’s Pizza in Long Beach in the ‘80’s is the best I’ve ever had...Apparently they have moved from their downtown location to somewhere on the outskirts???...

... I highly recommend staying away from Little Toni’s in North Hollywood couple of weeks ago...mediocre pizza mediocre spaghetti and meatballs and the worst service I’ve ever had...And that only cost $75

I picked up 11 pizzas and a few salads for my Grandma's 95th in September and 7 Pizzas and salad last trip few weeks ago for my nephews 3rd. Bomb pizza. Its around the block from one of my Sisters. Parking sucks but the owner has me park in front for pickup.

 

[FreeBird236]

Haven't had a really good pizza since I quit King Arthur's in 1969.

 

[Uncle Dave]

probably Chicago Fire in Roseville

stayed in Sac this weekend - tried Chicago Fire.

This is about 80% authentic -

Better than most who have not a clue. I enjoyed the pie - but its not equal to Lous, Ginos, Unos dues, and certainly not equal to Pequods.

The good it took a full 42 minutes from order to get so they got that part right. NY pies fly out in 10 minutes.
The crust snapped in the center
The thickness of the side was correct.
It was built upside down correctly but not enough base layer cheese

CF diverged from the real deal in a few ways

1. crust is too thick at the base of the L in the pan out to about 1.5 inches

2. Susage is chunks and not a full layer

3. Cheese should be an entire discreet layer.

3. Tomatoes didn't seem crushed but more like sauce

Maybe I needed to order the "Abe Froman" to get a more authentic pie, but I wanted to see what you get with what they consider the base pie.

In Havasu , El Padrino, hands down ! In the south end of Havasu

 

[farmo83]

meat lovers

 

[Ziggy]

Usually preferred thin crust, no olives or fishy shit, everything else I could eat. Never was a fan of half baked deep dish dough, even before I quit carbs.
There are a few cauliflower dough pizzas that are pretty decent, the good ones turn out to be most like thin crust.

This man knows what he is talking about...

Still have some in the fridge from the weekend. Yum.

There is one in Glendora as well.

Kiwi on top seems gross.

Lets look at a more authentic chicago pie than CF

This is from Hollywood pies - and is about a 95% accurate pie.

Notice the cheese in an entire layer- as is the pepperoni.
Crust is thinner and there is no hint of sponge.
(This was meatball so I didn't expect a layer of sausage)

The L at the wall of the pie is much thinner than CF's, but still a hair too thick but the rest of the pie is spot on.

Yes that’s pineapple

I'll be in the area this week. Will have to give it a shot

 

[getoffmylawn]

Antonio’s in Avalon thin crust with bacon and pineapple.
I’d never order it that way until a local brought a couple into the Marlin Club.

MFSOB Good.

Unfortunately, I heard they will be closing. Big Olafs (ice cream) is already gone........
Things seem to be changing a bit on the island

 

[getoffmylawn]

For a chain, Lou Malnatis, otherwise Vito and Nicks by Midway airport. True Chgo style bar where everyone still drink Old Style, they only accept cash and the pizza is a delicious thin crust. I haven't found anything decent in AZ.

 

[Nordie]

View attachment 836701 View attachment 836700

Is that Vito and Nick's? Looks pretty good

 

[getoffmylawn]

D’Agostino’s, on Addison. Couple blocks west of Wrigley. The Old Style was at a bar around the corner. Can’t remember which one, we went in all of em

 

[rvrrun]

A pizza with herpes?

 

[BingerFang]

Double pineapple, anchovy!!!

I have yet to have a pizza from Antonio's that I did not like... great pizza for sure!

I also heard they might be closing. Honestly the "island group" and the California conservatory is running all of the good things of avalon out. The locals are all closing shop as the island group takes over(running them out in reality) its actually pretty sad.. the island group will ruin that little town and then blame it on someone else!!

 

[River Runnin]

Best Pizza in Parker Az. is La Piazza -- BBQ Chicken pizza and the best wings anywhere we've tried!

 

[The Prisoner]

Uncle Tony's..East Providence. RI Now lock this thread...........there is no other!!

little Antonio’s will supposedly stay open. But the main one near the beach is on borrowed time. We have family that live there. Sad indeed........

We also have family on the island. My wife's stepmom was born and raised on the island and one of her boys still lives there. We go for 7-10days every Christmas

I have a brother-in-law that was born and raised on the island. He moved a couple of years ago, after retiring. Worked for the same place over 45 years, since graduating from high school. You don’t hear about that happening much anymore!
I’m sure they would know each other......
