I really like St. Louis style pizza, but I voted for NY style on the poll.  I prefer NY's thin crust so you can fold the piece in half and chow down.  You almost need a knife and fork for true Chicago style.  But I wouldn't turn down either.

Inarguably Chicago pizza. Any pizza outside of the ChicagoLand area is a sub par imitation. Chicago pizza sets the high standard all other pizza venues are judged by. Chicago epitomizes pizza. Chicago is pizza and pizza is Chicago.

Now, if you want the best of the best Chicago pizza, try Chicago's Home Run Inn. Genuine, original pizzeria style pizza. The recipe was created and initially sold in a corner beer bar right after WW2 by a veteran and his wife. Over the years it's popularity took off and it's taste and quality surpasses anything else made by others who came along later in the game.

Over the past 15-20 years they've gone commercial. But even the grocery store bought frozen pizzas are better than most of the fresh ones located around here.

I lived in Chicago for 5 years, miss the food...

Chicago style hot dogs.
Italian Beef.

and

Chicago Pizza.

Lou Malnatis
Ginos East
Giordanos

The ORIGINAL  Pizzaria Uno is pretty good (not the chain crap).

The Lou Malnatis frozen isn't too bad...I usually get one when I go back (nice to have around).   www.loutogo.com--check out the website, it offers Lou's Pizza, Eli's Cheesecake, Vienna Beef Hotdogs, and Portillo's Italian Beef.

Chicago style is better but it is hard to find a well-made Chicago pie.  NY style is impossible to mess up, even foreigners can make it.

There is no other pizza but NEW YORK pizza.

End of discussion.


ETA: Washed down with an ice-cold glass of NEW YORK CITY TAP WATER.

Not Chicagoans.

They screwed it up and called it Chicago pizza.

Best I have found is Giovanni's in Beaverton, OR.  New owners aren't as nice as the folks that used to own it 10 years ago, but they still make a pretty darn good pizza.

Best place for pizza on any corner is NYC.  It's about the only thing I can stand about the urban hole when I have to go there on business is being able to get great pizza any time of day.

Chicago for sure

Although Gino's, Giordono's, and home run inn lost it once they went comercial,--some of the best are still in the neiborhood-

New Haven... specifically Pepes or Sallys on Wooster Street. They've been making pizza on Wooster street since 1925, and yes, it is all that.

Leona's, on Taylor street, ?   It's been a while,  Their  Garbage Pie , kicks ass.  

It's near UIC.   Lot of good places to eat near there, been a while since wife attended there though.

"New York" style,

specifically, Pizzaland in North Arlington, NJ.
the best- period.

While I like both, and both have their advantages, I usually end up getting a NY style.  I like the floppy crust.  Add in lots of grease and you have a quality pie.

Tough decision.  I guess it depends on what mood I'm in.

Locally, I think the best is from a place called Erbelli's.  If any of you are in the Kalamazoo area ever, you have to check this place out.  Their handtossed pizza is the best!

I grew up in the Philadelphia region, therefore New York style. New Jersey boardwalk has some good pizza as well. Try finding good pizza in New Mexico!

California is NOT a valid pizza style but a bastardization.

Chicago style is the best.  

If you like New York style pizza, you are low brow and can't understand the finer things in life

If you like Kalifornia style, then you are limp wristed.

Shitcago pizza is nothing but crust and unseasoned tomato sauce.  I went to the damn save-a-lot and found shit that tasted better.  It's a mind thing in my opinion.  If a person tells himself that it's suposed to be good, that person will think that it's good.  I've had great pizza in Texas, California, Italy, New York..That Shticago tomato shit might be good enough to pack somebodys ass crack with.  But that's about all it's worth.  Believe me, I live here and do most of my training in Shitcago.  The pizza ain't worth a damn.  

Bland assed shit.


At on training, this one dude bragged and bragged about Shitcago pizza.  I ate a few pieces, went back to the Ritz, turned on HBO and Fat Moore's 911 movie was on.  I freakin blew chow all over the room.  Freakin red shit coming out of my nose and ass.  Fat fuck Moore being on didn't help.  But the fat fuck probably was a catalyst for bringing up that Shitcago shit pizza.  After room service moved me to another room, I ended up watching Myth Busters and Dirty Jobs.  

Shit tasted like it came out of a freakin cardboard factory.  

Next time I ship some ammo, I'll use the pizza crust as a box.

"Here's your twelve thousand rounds of Hirtenberger, sir."  "Uh, in a, uh Shitcago pizza crust."  
Shit was so thick and hard, BBT driver knew what is was and where it was from.


Hot Dogs.....that's a different story!!!
