Our favorite pizza's down here are from Gio's. They'll make them thin for you, or you can get their grandma's pizza, both by the slice or whole pie. I bring our friday golf group there the first Friday of the month and the entire group looks forward to it. We're from Dartmouth, Ma. and while I prefer the food from home and especially Federal Hill in Providence, if you keep an open mind you'll be able to find some decent spots in the area. As far as subs go ('grinders' back home), every Saturday I would order several hundred dollars of them from 2 different shops in Fall River, Marzilli's and Marcucci's, and they would compete as the best in the area. Here's a picture of someone who might recognize ordering 4 grinders at Marzilli's. It's in the middle of the city, so he probably knew about it. By the way, I like the cold subs at Publix when I can get them with balsamic and oil. You might like Mesa de Notte in Ocala.
