I have never heard this many people say that Pizza Hut was great. There used to be a Pizza Hut next to where I used to live and I thought it was pretty good, but it went out of business quite a while ago. So the only easy/cheap pizza place around is Domino's which I fucking hate!

 

[DoomsdayZach]

Dominos > Pizza hut

Real pizza > both

 

[Meedleyx10]

Dominos sucks and should only be eaten if Pizza Hut and Papa John's (in that order) are unavailable for whatever reason. I know there are other mainstream options, but those 3 are the only ones that I know are pretty much everywhere. Papa Murphy's (the take-and-bake place) is actually really good, but I know they aren't quite as universal.

+5 to your second point though

^ I agree with your entire post, except Papa Murphy's, not familiar with them. I've had Dominos just a couple times, but it was so freakin bland...though some of their specialty pizzas look OK, on TV at least

Canto's Greek pizza place sounds good...I'm assuming they offer feta cheese as a topping, and that rules on pizza!

 

[CantoX]

Yes they do offer fetta cheese pizza as a topping, and its AMAZING! The pizza is okay tasting, but most of the time the toppings fall of the pizza which I dislike a lot!!!

Little Ceasers has a $5 large pizza which is a very hard price to beat, but it doesn't taste that great.

Theres this damn good pizza place next to Clemson called Columbos, and its a Chicago style pizza. Its pretty good.

Lombardi's > All

Oh god, there's a New Yorker in a pizza discussion. Here we go.

 

[ABQShredHead]

I'll put Dion's and Saggio's up against anybody's pizza. Even New Yorker's. And Chicagoans.

What's funny is, every time I've had pizza in NYC, it sucked ass. I have yet to experience this 'omg to die for' NY pizza..I think it's a myth. *g*

Lombardi's was featured on The History Channel so it's awesome by default.

We like to hide the good places from the tourists ;P

Check out Papa Murhpy's if you get a chance...it's been a while for me so I can't remember what their prices are like, but the pizza is great.

My personal favorite pizza places are:

Savoy's- Local chain here in the Twin Cities (i think there are 3 or 4 locations)...great stuff, very filling, and the right price

Pino's- A small place in the foodcourt in the skyway here in downtown st. paul. It's a old itallian guy and his kids who run it...GREAT people and equally good pizza

Franco's- Back in Delaware....small place (can't remember if it's a chain or just the one location). Their Sicillian pizza is unspeakably good. Probably my favorite overall.

Well, now you're on the West Coast, so anything in New York wins. Seriously, I couldn't find good pizza anywhere out west.

 

[ABQShredHead]

Yeah, well Saggio's has Arrogant Bastard on tap. Win, hands down.

 

[Wander]

The best pizza I've ever eaten wasn't even made in a pizza place, but an ordinary restaurant.

Sounds like Vitale's here in Grand Rapids...best pie in the region.

Not a F'in chance, girlie!

Your on tap predjudices automatically disqualify you!

Ditto for me as well. Chicago style deep dish rules all. They just opened a Gino's East in Lake Geneva. Now I actually have to choose between Upper Crust & Ginos.....sucks! Of the NY pizza I've had, I'd much rather have gone to Little Ceaser's or Pizza Hut....I WANTED to enjoy it, but it was quite unimpressive. I even want to say we had Lombardis, but it was quite a while ago, and it honestly wasn't memorable enough...

CA has THE worst pizza on the planet......Iraq could do better!

Pizza Hut is my favorite junk-food place. Rarely go there though, with fear for both my health and economy...

Phanto, this is off topic from pizza, but I'm doing a report on Sweden for history and I may have some questions for you about your prog heaven of a country (Yes, that's why I picked it!) If you don't mind, that is. I figured it would be easier to ask someone who lives there than dig through articles and books.

No problem, shoot

 

[noble savage]

Excellent, thanks man!

 

[Phanto]

So, yeah, just write your questions and I'll answer them tomorrow. I'm going to bed now, it's 4 am here.
