Black Thorn Pub & Pizza is somewhat of a hidden gem of pizzerias, and I only knew of it thanks to someone that lives in the area. It is tucked away in a neat older neighborhood in southern St. Louis, and is well known to the locals for its Chicago-style pizza. They also offer thin […]
Glass Nickel Pizza Company | Brookfield, WI
I briefly lived in Wisconsin, and during that time Glass Nickel Pizza was a staple of my diet (along with beer and cheese curds). My favorite of their pizzas is one with pepperoni and extra cheese as it creates an amazingly delicious and greasy pizza. Aside from the good amount of cheese, their pizzas are […]
Giordano’s | Chicago, IL
I’ve never reviewed the same pizza place twice before, but I had to make an exception for Giordano’s. I had previously been very excited to find a Giordano’s location in Florida, and I enjoyed their thin crust at that time in anticipation of the moment when I could feast on their famous stuffed crust pizza […]
Gino’s East | Chicago, IL
Gino’s East is one of Chicago’s best known pizzerias, and I believe their reputation is well-deserved. I enjoyed their cheesy pizza bread appetizer, and I especially enjoyed their sausage deep dish pizza. But this wasn’t just any sausage pizza, Gino’s East offers the option of traditional sausage chunks or a sausage patty that covers the […]
Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria | Chicago, IL
Lou Malnati’s is one of Chicago’s well-known pizzerias, and therefore I greatly enjoyed the opportunity to be able to dine at its Lincoln Park location. Lou Malnati’s first opened its doors in Lincolnwood in 1971, and they now have thirty-two locations across the Chicagoland area. I obviously had to have a Chicago-syle deep dish pizza, […]
Pizzeria Uno | Chicago, IL
The Pizzeria Uno that I visited in downtown Chicago was the birthplace of Chicago-style deep dish pizza, and following is its history as described on Uno’s website: “In 1943, when Ike Sewell opened a restaurant at the corner of Ohio Street and Wabash Avenue in Chicago, Americans ate pizza primarily as a snack. Ike figured […]
Pizza Factory | Payson, AZ
I was unfamiliar with the Pizza Factory when I tried it, despite the fact that it apparently has over 120 locations across five states (Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, and Washington). I visited a location in a strip mall in Payson, AZ as I had been driving from northern Arizona for a couple hours and Payson […]
Pizza Saves Lives
Just in case you haven’t been able to fully understand the greatness that is pizza yet, perhaps you would be interested to know that it can save lives. Check out out the video below from the Today Show to see how ordering delivery pizza daily from Domino’s saved a Memphis woman’s life: Visit msnbc.com for […]
Abby’s Legendary Pizza | Redmond, OR
Geno’s Italian Grill | Madras, OR
Geno’s Italian Grill was recommended to me as the best pizza in Madras. I tried the New York White Pie which consisted of four cheeses: mozzarella, provolone, parmesean, and ricatta, and I also chose to add pepperoni. I don’t think there was any sauce on the pizza at all, or at least the little bit […]
