Check post 32 on this thread and a few later ones where it was mentioned. I've been missing them since he moved from NY.

Seems like so far this thread has missed American Flatbread in Burlington and Waitsfield VT. Out of the way, but all natural home grown ingredients, hand made stone oven baked, all sorts of goodness.

Oh yeah it's by no means the best pizza ever but I didn't think that Pizzeria Bianco was either. Maybe it was all of the hype that you hear before actually eating there but I thought Bianco was good just not over the top great. Given a choice between waiting hours for a table at a crowded cramped Bianco or sitting on the patio at Cibo, I'll take Cibo.

But yeah, I also agree with you that neither qualify as large slice NY pizza type places. I'm sure you've had Slices on Mill Ave. and now at Tempe Marketplace, I always thought they were pretty good. Out here in the East Valley we've got La Famiglia at Alma School and Warner in Chandler, their lasagna pizza (meatball, ricotta, mozzarella, and sauce) is something to go out of your way for. And, of course, Jimmy and Joe's is pretty good too!

Good points all around, especially on the not waiting at Bianco one. I used to love Slices when I went to Arizona State, especially as they were the first place I ever ate that had iDine. I think I got something like 11 miles for my first slice there, but it was worth it! I went to La Famiglia once years ago and really really liked it. I don't think I've had Jimmy and Joes though.

Spinato's, Cibo, and Pomo's are all better than Bianco and that's only because Chris doesn't make the pies anymore and also because the wait is terrible.

As for Tucson only Brooklyn is any good and its NY style which is nice.

Best pizza is in Kigali Rwanda.

I might get kicked out of New York for this, but The Bell's pizza in Hurley Wisconsin. It's in the middle of no-where and you would NEVER guess amazing pizza can be found here, but WOW.
I'm born and raised in Brooklyn and whilst I love my NY pizza, this actually is pretty awesome.

NY - Pizza, I love my old haunts in Brooklyn, like Luigi's on 22nd or Lenny's on Prospect Ave, but Lombardi’s in Manhattan is pretty sweet.

Best pizza on earth is at Phil's Pizza in Oak Lawn, IL. Get the thin crust with sausage. Carry out/delivery only though, so you might have to eat in the Jewel parking lot across the street.

Deep dish is overrated, but if you must you gotta go with Beggar's Pizza. I don't know anyone in Chicago that regularly gets deep dish. I don't think I had it until I was in high school.

I also think Lou Malnati's is way overrated. Beggar's, Giordano's, and Eduardo's are all ahead of Lou's.

why?
I'll actually be up that way in a couple weeks, hopefully I'll get time to try it out.
clearly you like stuffed deep dish as opposed to pan deep dish, the two are very different pizzas. I don't like stuffed at all as it is mostly cheese and will steer clear of places like Giordano's or Edwardo's.
cool, I've got next week to myself as the Mrs is at a conference, so I'm going to try it out.

My favorite pizza was from Fox's Pizza Den in and around Pittsburgh. It was mostly due to their sauce, which I would readily admit probably wasn't for everyone. It was a bit unusual.

Been along time since college and on my last trip out there I saw that they are still in business. Didn't have the opportunity, though, to check it out.

I love Ken's Artisan pizza in Portland.. the wait is a bit long usually but the food is great, and the wine is so reasonably priced..

I live in the West Loop and pretty much only eat deep dish, along with many others that I know that live in the city.

I will give you one warning. Phil's uses a lot of cheese. so if you don't like a very cheesy pizza, it may not be up your alley.

Are you a Chicago native?

Milo and Olive in Santa Monica, California now has my vote. Their pork belly pizza and their wild mushroom pizzas are out of this world.

The Four Kegs in Las Vegas is pretty good , Alberts on Long Island & Spumoni Gardens in Brooklyn (both are know for upside down pizza) are the best
