Pizza is my FAVORITE food. I crave it and can eat it everyday with no problem, so I consider myself an expert.

Local chains: Armands (deep dish, wonderful crust, sauce not too bad, they don't drench the pizza, actual stewed tomatoes in there); Pizza Palace (simple is usually the best, not fussed with, NY Style); Mamma Lucia's (the best sausage, it's sliced lengthwise, it's not the crumbled variety, great crust, excellent cheese to sauce ratio)

National Chains: Pizzeria Uno's: this has been my favorite pizza place my whole life. It's the best flavored crust and sausage and cheese. My favorite is the Classic with broccoli. Sbarro's: The best of the national fast food style. I will go to the mall to get a pie take out instead of ordering Domino's. I only order Domino's if I'm having lots of people over and wantthe bulk order discount, but even then it's the simple style: cheese or pepperoni.

My favorite pizza overall though is a little place on Merrick Blvd in Laurelton, Queens, NYC called J&S Pizza. It's Sicilian style, the best cheese, sauce, the sausage sliced lengthwise, it also has sausage rolls, and excellent calzones. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANY New Yawkas out there! Take the E train to the last stop, then take the Q5 bus to right before the border of Nassau Co., get off by the bowling alley, and walk across the street to possibly the most stimulating pizza experience of your life!
