I read this whole ridiculous thread to see if New Haven got mentioned. The pizza here is out of control. It's ridiculous how high the standards are.

Regina is the stuff of greasy, garlicky dreams. I don't know if they still do it, but when I was a kid, they'd have bottles of olive oil with big chunks of garlic floating in it on the tables ... you know, just in case your pizza isn't greasy enough ...

If you're north of Beantown, there's a place in Melrose called Caruso's that's a close second to Regina's.

If you're here picking up your Carl Strong frame in person McKenzie River Pizza is just a few blocks away. Otherwise Colombo's up by the college.

Along my ride in Houston,TX, there's New York Pizzaria on Holcome, Frank's in Downtown, and Star Pizza on Washington. Frank's always gets a nod from me, as I can always shoot the breeze with Tim between his deliveries.

Encinitas, CA:
Olyo's on Hwy. 101
Run by stoned 17-year-old surf doggs who know how to fix a f**kin' slice.

The length of that slice is greater than the max diameter of most pizza here. Are you sure you didn't cut up a blanket?

Jeez. I've never seen anything like that.

Best pizza I ever had was in Boston, north end perhaps. I don't remember the name of the place but there was a line around the corner waiting to get in. My friend and I skipped the entire line a picked a spot at the 6-8 person bar. I remember seeing pictures of I believe the owner crawling inside of the oven doing some repairs. I think it might even be wood burning, but perhaps not. But damm that the the best pizza I've ever had.

I lived in Chicago. Chicago Pan is not pizza. When you're given the option of sausage pieces or an entire patty that is not pizza. In fact I'll go as far as to say that I don't like it. The crust is more like corn meal then flour...eeewwwuuuu.

duder. that was regina's. and yeah they still have olive oil in big jars on the table with garlic and peepers floatin' in it. and good cheap wine. go there.

St. Paul, MN: Punch's on Cleveland Avenue in Highland Park. Authentic wood-fired neapolitan pizza.
Portland, OR: Escape From New York on NW 23rd. Not as greasy as Rocco's.
Lucca, Italy: Can't remember the name, but oh my god!! Perfection by the slice.

Atlanta: Mellow Mushroom is always top on my list. Savage, Felini's, Oz, Mojo's, or Everybody's are all further down on the list.

Like I said, it was a battle. Craig (the guy in the picture) actually provided two pictures... the one above and this one:



I think it shows incredible foresight on his part to size up the toilet to make sure that the whole slice will fit.

For the East Bay, you just gotta go to Lanesplitter for beer and pizza. They have the only good vegan cheeze I've ever tasted!!!!! YUM. (it even attracts the carnivores) I'm dating someone who works there just for "the in"

DC's not a great pizza town, but these are my places:

I like Ella's a lot. Unlike Matchbox, it's always easy to get a table at Ella's, and they have a soy cheese pizza (a little easier on my system). I also like Alberto's on P Street, sort of across from Paradiso.

I actually miss Trio's carry out pizza; it was admittedly an acquired taste, but I grew up on the stuff and I liked being able to walk around the corner at 3am for a slice and an orange soda. <sigh> Its' replacement, Hank's Oyster Bar, is a much nicer place, though; so I'm getting over it.

Best pizza hands down is Brother's in Telford,PA.

But since I don't get up there too often;DC has alot of decent 'big slice' places that will fill the need,but for taste I'd suggest Palisades Pizzeria & Clam Bar on lower MacArthur or Cappuchino Pizza on Wisc in Georgetown.

jitensha!

if you're ever in Norfolk, VA swing by Cogan's. $5 cheese pie Sundays. if i'm working, i might hook you up with a slice if you holla. look for the short black guy wearing a Columbus cycling cap.

For SF, North Beach pizza is pretty good, Goat Hill is good, and only a few blocks from Anchor brewing so fresh beer, and Escape from New York is decent...

In Santa Cruz, CA where I was raised, Pizza My Heart ruled the day. Razor-thin pizzas decked with pepperoni grease for days, served with as much great ranch dressing and habanero sauce as you could take (yeah, I know, adultery). I probably gained a good dozen pounds in my time there eating just that very combo. That dozen pounds was well worth it.

Now I'm vegetarian (and actually, right now, vegan) and live in San Fran so I will rock Escape From New York now and again, and also loves me some Zachary's if I'm in Oaktown. Everyone goes there for the thick crust action but it's often too much for me- I love their thin crust very much.

There's a cornmeal crust-slanted place in the city called Viccolo's that sells pre-made crusts at my favorite organic grocery store. They turn out beautifully right out of my crappy oven, and I get to get creative with toppings.

Mmm, miso & olive paste with marinated tomatoes and 4-year-old gouda.. Pretty hoity-toity but I love rolling weird combos like that.
