Florida style pizza is - cardboard with a delicate brushing of over-peppered tomato-flavored corn syrup with poorly-distributed shredded natural and artificial processed cheese food. I'm sure it's great if you're into that.
Everything else is flatbread. My position is unassailable, moderator you can now lock the thread.

Most people who know more about Chicago than what the bombastic media reports realize that true Chicago style pizza is thin crust, or tavern style. The deep dish is ok for a change every now and then, and it is indeed good, but it seems to be a favorite among tourists and newly arrived “Big 10 Transplants”.
Piesano is OK, but overall, pizza around here is forgettable, and that includes NYPD Bravo, Red Sauce, Giovanni, Francesco, etc. Even Great Chicago Fire Brewery in Leesburg seems to have slipped....way too much cheese. YMMV.
