Top Pizza Places

- Pizzeria della Piazza: The best Chicago-style pizza in St. Louis, hands down.

- Pi: Gets consistently rave reviews. I must visit soon.

- Dewey's: I have enjoyed coming here with friends. The pizza is extremely tasty.

- Vito's - Scrumptious gourmet pizza

- Il Vicino: Tasty, wood oven pizza.

- Joanies: Great thin crust

- Fortel's: Amazing mom and pop pizza joint

Great list!

B&T Pizza (I enjoy it and it's conveniently located! I love being able to enjoy pizza without having to buy a whole pie and end up overeating in the process!)

Not so great list!

Except for leaving out Feraros.

Racanellis sucks. I ended up with muddbutt the last three times I ate there. I'd rather eat a cup of lukewarm ramen noodles than a slice of their pizza.

Well, they are better that Domino's!

Just remember, they're only open on the weekends.

Are they the BYOB place?

Mr. B's on Southwest has good pizza too.

Domino's and Pizza Hut hardly qualify as "Best Pizza" in StL! Good Heavens!



I would have to say that w/in the city limits Louie's is a top contender, as is St. Louis Chicken & Wings (downtown location only) and Vito's. I personally like Blackthorn, but I know plenty of people who think it's too thick & saucy. I say, "what could be better than thick and saucy." ;^D Tulayna's can be good, depending on the maker. I like the Tulayna's on Gravois near Kingshighway but have gotten both decent and disgusting pizza from the Skinker-DeBaliviere location.



Dewey's is good, but I'm not sure about best, I honestly haven't had enough to determine that. Pizza World is OK (though world's better than Dom & PieHut.) People rave about Joanie's in Soulard, but I thought it was about as good as Dewey's, though, again, I've only eaten there once. Racanelli's Loop location is good NY style, but their CWE location never really drew me back.



There are a lot of places that have great pizza that aren't pizza places, too. I'm thinking of 3Monkeys on Morganford, in particular.



Best!

Technically, cheese on a piece of cardboard is a better value. And probably tastes about the same.

Can't forget good old Frank & Helen's on Olive in U. City!



Also, isn't Pi (across from the Pageant) supposed to be great? Haven't been there yet.

You don't like StL style pie, we get the point. Your obsession with letting us know that must be keeping you from your work CS. Just let the dead horse be.

Where did I say that? Perhaps you need a reading comprehension course? Ouch, that's embarassing.
