However the 10 worst pizza places in the USA are any 10 Domino's that you happen upon. |

After adding red peppers, it started to taste good.. or it was just good for the fact I was w/o pizza for weeks prior. When looking at the menu, I basically said "you got to be kidding me" but found the meat lovers to be relatively decent. |
Q:What's the difference between a St. Louis style pizza and a bowling ball?
A: If you had to, you could eat a bowling ball. |
Any place serving "St Louis style" pizza.

STL-STYLE PIZZA--Let me explain!!
I am a St. Louis native and I lived there for 27 years until moving to New England last year. For the first 17 years of my life, I hated St. Louis style pizza but it was the only pizza that my dad would order. (His favorite-Cecil Whittaker's anchovy pizza--you would think St. Louis Style pizza couldn't get any sharper.)
After ignoring stacks of oversized pizza boxes in my family's refrigerator for years, I finally started eating it and now I crave it. St. Louis style pizza is best when eaten cold: roll over the thin powdery cracker-crust pieces and top them with black olives or hamburger. No more than two toppings at a time. Otherwise, eat the pizza reheated and generously sprinkled with red pepper flakes. And be sure to accompany Imo's or Cecil Whittakers STL-Style pizza with Bud Light. One of the best things about STL style pizza, is that it doesn't get soggy. You can also enjoy Talayna's (it moved) and Cicero's for great non stl-style pizza right in the U-City loop or you can enjoy our traditional Italian food on "The Hill." |
Any pizza in southern California! Californians are totally clueless when it comes to pizza!!! To start with, they're half-uncooked! Pizza crust with the consistency of bubble gum and uncooked veggies and other strange and unappealing toppings....pineapple, bamboo shoots, clams, and barbeque sauce? Yecch!!! And raw, sliced tomatoes, but no hand-crushed cooked tomato sauce??? Disgusting!!!
I've had several southern Californians recommend Round Table Pizza. Well, I tried them twice, and both times the pizza was so bad that I couldn't finish it! |

In my neighborhood there are some truly vile pizza joints (Maria's, Frankie & Johnnie's). Good pizza can be found at Toscana, Divino, La Scala. Look for good pizza in good restaurants in So Cal. Da Pasquale in Beverly Hills is a great example of a restaurant with pizza on the menu. Pizza is excellent, but not the primary focus. |
The alleged pizza in any Amtrak lounge or snackbar car.
Microwaved pizza? The horror, the horror.... :eek: :( :td: |
Little Stevie's
Boylston St, Boston.
Big slices and not so horrible after a million beers since they're open 'til 3am, but I actually saw the guy mop out the oven with the same mop he does the floor with. I guess that's the secret spice! |

While I was attempting to eat dinner, the assistant manager was hassling a person at another table for only eating the toppings and not the crust, saying that they couldn't have any more slices unless they ate the crust because without eating the crust they could eat a disproportionate number of slices. (Not sure why they would have wanted to, but Boulder is an expensive college town to live in, cheap goes a long way for most students....) |

Corn is not as bad as it gets...

I agree. But I have seen corn pizza described as "American Style" in Germany and Switzerland. They seem to be confused :rolleyes:

Pizza Man--Stay away
I am a pizzaholic. When I first moved to LA from NJ, the first food I ordered out was pizza from a place called Pizza Man.
I took one bite and I cried. Would I have not have a choice and be forced to eat this crap? At this time there were no Domino's or other chains where I lived. I am not a fan of the chains by any means but until I explored further around LA, these places would have to do. LA does not know the concept of a slice of pizza either. I am now in LA for 20 years and I still haven't found a decent NY pizza. As soon as return to NJ, the first thing I eat is pizza and never stop eating it until I leave. (No I am not a 400lb hippo either). I don't even order it in restaurants for the fear of being disappointed, again. Long live NY pizza. |
