I’d like to hear what you think is the best pizza.

I’d like to hear what you think is the best pizza.

That’s tough but Rosatis wouldn’t be anywhere near the top of my list.

Top local places to me would be Little Italian, Papas Place, and Papa Passeros.

Not familiar, I’m assuming these are in the Naperville area?

Little Italian is in Naperville, Papas Place Bolingbrook and Papa Passeros Westmont.

I forgot Al’s Pizza in Warrenville too.

Papa Passeros is solid

We had Rosati's tonight. Just something different than the normal White Cottage. I have to say, it's not sitting well with me.

Growing up that was our spot. I spent a lot of time in the arcade as a kid.

Had deep dish Giordanos (815 W Van Buren) yesterday after class, could have used another few minutes as the crust was pretty soft, but it was good.

Was visiting my dad near Lexington, KY and went to a local place called Giovanni's. For $10 all you can eat and drink it was pretty good. What really surprised me was the pizza where they used a ranch and bacon sauce, instead of a tomato based one. I'm not a fan of ranch dressing, but holy fuck was that good!

Birthday lunch was delicious!

Happy Birthday sir... did they stick some candles in the pie? Maybe tie some balloons to your hair? A free soft drink? Maybe an extra napkin?

Sarpino's Santa Fe Chicken Ranch uses a Chipotle Ranch sauces, its delicious.

Sarpino's traditional pan pizza smothered in homemade Chipotle ranch sauce and loaded with juicy chicken strips, sauteed green and red peppers, tender onions, smoked bacon, melty cheddar and our signature gourmet cheese blend and a sprinkle of sharp Parmesan cheese.

Not bad for a frozen pie. Way better than that Rosati pos ??

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I like the Newman’s frozen pizzas.

 

[Bigturbonotch]

whole foods 365 thin crust supreme, bbq, or pepperoni for a quick frozen treat.

Met up with Teege24 out in New Buffalo, MI, and had to get a Chicago staple, Villa Nova Pizza.

Take this review with a grain of salt, as I haven't had a good thin crust pizza in MONTHS since Michigan sucks.

Villa Nova is a 2nd location for a popular, highly rated, Chicago Pizza in Stickney IL. I haven't had the original, but I know this place comes highly recommended.

We ordered a large thin crust, only cheese, well done. My God. This pizza was absolutely incredible. Some of the best thin crust I've had in a very very long time. I wish I wish I could pack one of the cooks into my trunk and take him back home with me.

8.5/10. Incredible pizza. Loved every bite. I was sad was it was gone.

I gotta remember that spot in New Buffalo. Occasionally I'll take a day trip over there in the summer with the gf to get lunch and hang at the beach. I didn't know good pizza existed in Michigan, outside of Detroit.

It doesn't. But there's a lot of Chicago people that live along the lake.

Villa Nova in New Buffalo is really good.
Guy who owns it lives down the street from one of my techs. We eat there when we’re working in NB.
