Best Take-Out Pizza

[cordenny]

Who do you think has the best take-out pizza?

[Chatbrat]

Bellview Pizza of Giovani's Deli

[My Daily Run]

I have given up on pizza here in The Villages...I have it when I travel or I go to Walmart...they have a refrigerated pizza (not frozen) with all the fixings for 5 or 6 bucks and it is as good or better then any I have found...16 to 18 minutes in the oven and it is not bad at all. For that price you can't lose.

[Blessed2BNTV]

Aldi’s makes a really good refrigerator pizza.

[leftyf]

Sam's Club, but have them bake it, it has all fresh ingredients. I don't like the take and bake as well.

[BobnBev]

It's a toss-up between Mallory Hill CC and NYPD pizza.:MOJE_whot:

[B-flat]

Caserta’s Pizza 121 Spruce Providence, Rhode Island. Oops wrong state, I say that in jest but we have never found pizza we like anywhere in Florida. Thanks for the suggestions on Walmart and Sam’s club refrigerated pizza.

[SFSkol]

Stay away from Flippers. Who puts Pepperoni under the cheese? Ordered 1/2 chesse 1/2 pepperoni and couldn't tell where the pepperoni was.

[Chatbrat]

In all reality--by pillsbury thin pizza dough, make your own pizza--if you have a Big Green Egg, indirect heat @ 600 degrees on pizza stone--let the stone heat for 20 minutes--use parchment paper instead of corn meal

Beats any pizza in TV--the 2 restaurants I mentioned are not in TV

[TommyT]

STAVROS PIZZA in Leesburg...

Best we have found here.

[SFSkol]

STAVROS PIZZA in Leesburg...

Best we have found here.

Agreed. Best Greek style pizza. Thick crust, crisp bottom.

[Rapscallion St Croix]

Pizza is not even a thing back in Possum Poot, Louisiana, so I have to ask....is "take out" pizza different from "eat at one of our tables in the restaurant" pizza?

[Chatbrat]

should be the same, but, as previously stated -pizza in this area is a poor imitation of pizza--one the greatest pizza's we ever ate was in Cary, NC--thye had a 1000 degree coal fired oven--the first day they opened , they ran out of dough, they were named restaurant of the year in the Triangle, after being open less than 90 days--when they sold the restaurant , the purchasers folded in a year--it takes skill to cook @ 1000 degrees--look up Bella Mia-Cary, NC

[vintageogauge]

Pasta Fair or Fare in Belleview. Located in front of where the K-mart was. Excellent think crust pizza. It's quite a drive from Fenney so only go there if we are up north for something or coming back from Ocala. We buy a couple of them and freeze what is left to heat up in the oven another day, it's even good after freezing it.

[Topspinmo]

Pizza is individual taste depending on where you're from and acquired taste. For me I rate pizza compared to godfathers supreme. Yes I know now where near to authentic Italian pizza which I don't like. If I pay 20 bucks plus for pizza I expect the ingredients to piled high not so thin and sparse that the oven burns it up. I find sams club Meat trio for 6 bucks with adding I like at home it's the best pizza for the buck around here for me.

Absolutely horrible pizza. Went there once and would never go back. Of course, I grew up in an Italian city so all to me, Greek pizza, or cafe style pizza is just not good.

Little Joeys on 27/441 in Summerfield is pretty good.

[Inexes@aol.com]

Being a major pizza fan, I do find Mallory or Sammy Jo's pizza edible..... but not like "back home"..... Ha! Right! We all sit here and lament on how things were "back home". I have fond memories of Vincent's and/or Mineo's in Pittsburgh. Always talking about how I would love a pizza from there. Well.... my sister from Pgh came to visit and lo & behold, she surprised me with not 1 but 3 pizza's from Mineo's. So much for "fond memories" .... i almost gagged, could not eat it. So, just maybe ...... things weren't that much better "back home" ?????

I wonder why the pizza is in squares no triangles. I went to college in Peoria and the 1st time we ordered pizza to our dorm we were shocked by the squares.

[My Post]

What the hell is that thing? Looks like something from the Pillsbury bake-off. Is it true if you order a pizza in Chicago it comes with bullets as topping?

Be careful about the parchment paper. I've set it on fire on the grill. Also, not advisable to use fresh moz. Use the bagged shredded that's dryer. The fresh had so much liquid in it, it boiled up and cracked two pizza stones.

That is what you get for making your own pizza! I thought pizza only came in delivery vans.
I've heard Flippers is good, but not for me.

Do yourself a favor, next time you're headed north on I-95 and you've past the northside of the Baltimore Beltway (I-695). In another ten miles get off at exit 77B Bel Air, Maryland. Go west towards Bel Air and turn right in a 1/2 mile at the first intersection (Rt 924 Emmorton Rd.) proceed about a mile just past the Walgreens to the shopping on the right. Midway just past the center next to the Ravens/Orioles Souvenir Shop is "BOX HILL PIZZA". Voted best Crabs Cakes in Maryland, also excellent pizza and even better steak subs. BTW, fans of Wegmans, you'll past a Wegmans on the right just past the WaWa.

This is the front, it's two storefronts. I just noticed on their facebook page they're expanding the front of the building and increasing the waiting area and a new doorway, so it will look different. I lived a 1/2 a mile from this place from 1998 to 2011, I miss them and two of my favorite golf courses the most.

[EPutnam1863]

We have lived all over the country, and the best pizza we have had is in Cable, WI.

Brooklyn in Melbourne serves very good pizza too.

Please - no frozen pizzas!

Please no Dominoes, no LIttle Caesar, none of those chain pizzerias - but Uno's is very good for a chain restaurant.

[Yung Dum]

I have read every post here and am so happy there were no votes for Papa Johns, Pizza Hut, Dominoes and the rest of that ilk. I vote for Bravos and Pasta Faire, which has a bogo on Wednesdays.

[kilowatt]

Bravos for me as well

[Chatbrat]

None of the above--no such thing as good pizza in TV

Recently went to Stravos, Leesburg

Excellent Sicilian pizza! Some call it Greek style. Felt like I was back home in Queens NYC at Coratos.

Don’t need to look it up...anymore than I couldnt find my way to Nathan’s blindfolded.

There is acceptable pizza here...so don’t be a pizza snob because for every good place in the old neighborhood there was some place with the same slop as here.

[marjie55]

You have not tried LEDO's in Tampa, St.Petersburg, or Clearwater yet. This is out of Wash, DC franchise and anyone from the College Park area of MD will know where I am talking about. My daughters live in Tampa(1 1/2 hours away) and each time they visit they are required to bring pizza with them! So I can say the whole state is not devoid of good pizza but central Florida seems to be. I will say Bravos in Sumter Landing is a fair substitute for boardwalk pizza but other than that all the rest of these places everyone mentions,examples: Flippers, Giovannis, Bellviewe pizza, all taste to me like the mall pizza from Sabarros. Am I wrong??

[marjie55]

I love the frozen pizza , Home Run. It is thin and crispy with a great tasting crust-not at all like bread dough. Publix has it.

[mic4me]

Pizza is like beauty, it's in the eye of the beholder. Everyones tastes are different, just look at some of the decor in the open houses for sale. Would you take a pizza recommendation from some of those home owners?

[l2ridehd]

Brooklyn in Melbourne is good. Ledo's is a decent chain pizza. In TV not much. NYPD is OK, but just OK. Flippers, Bravo's, I can at least eat it, but not good. Best around here is Big Bob's in Okalawaha.

La Rosa's and Donato's has my vote. The best pizza is always from your own home town.

LaRosa's has a bit of sweetness in the sauce and Donato's pepperoni is cut super thin and is crispy when baked. YUM.

You’re correct, Vincent’s has good pizza but I believe they’re in Mount Dora. There’s one in downtown Mount Dora and another one on 441 just past Renningers flea market.

And except for Arthur Ave and Tosca’s on East Tremont, you might be disappointed by pizza in the Bronx today. I remember when you could buy a small pizza for $.90 and a large pie for $1.20.

It seemed like it was 15 cents a slice for a very long time. It was so long that all the pizzerias had that price in neon lights.

Giordano’s pizza is amazing. It takes 45 minutes to prepare/bake. We always call ahead. It is loaded with cheese and has a wonderful crisp thick crust. Chicago style pizza at it’s finest.

They have several Orlando locations and they also will ship.....if only there were one here in The Villages...sigh!

Wait! It’s probably a good thing that there isn’t one closer. We would over indulge for sure!!!

You are right. When staying in Kissimmee for a Disney getaway the Giordano's on Irlo Bronson Hwy. is a must do to fix a pizza craving. Charley's Steak House nearby takes care of the red meat need. Thanks for the memories.

I really enjoy the pizza at Via Napoli..

[OrangeBlossomBaby]

And what place where your from has good pizza?

The Modern, New Haven, CT (nod to previously mentioned Pepe's but nobody does a white clam better than the Modern). Can you even get a white clam pizza in TV? Or anywhere in Florida? I lived in "unincorporated Broward" for a summer years ago and they all looked at me like I had three heads when I asked for that at the local pizza joint there.

I might have to just get the recipe from our local guy before we move south, and make my own pizza if it's true that there's no good pizza in TV.

We've grown to like Chef's of Napoli on 301.

[tophcfa]

It's a toss-up between Mallory Hill CC and NYPD pizza.:MOJE_whot:

I don't eat pizza, too many carbs, but my wife loves pizza. Thanks for the above advise, both are golf cart accessible, which is a must for us. Does Anyone know if NYPD pizza serves other food options that are not carb loaded?

[OrangeBlossomBaby]

I just took a look at the menu on their website. Other than salads, the entire menu is a huge carbo-load. Even if you get the chicken parm without the pasta on the side, it's still breaded. However, if you are allowed to substitute a salad for the pasta, it'd be a "lower" carb meal. Not low-carb, but lower. Maybe a once in awhile treat, unless you have some medical reason not to consume starches.

[2BNTV]

IMHO - Chef's of Napoli sausage peppers and onions pizza.

Gio Deli on 301 just north of 466 is the best outside of Regina's in the North End in Boston or Riccardi's in New Bedford!

[Dr Winston O Boogie jr]

Bravos for me as well

We had Bravos tonight. It was very dry, not enough sauce and the crust was tough and chewy. Will not be ordering from them again. Papa John's is better than Bravos.

[rivaridger1]

My wife and I have never been disappointed with Flippers new location on 44 near Brownwood. They make a good pizza. I lived in Philadelphia and its's environs for the first half of my life, eg., a good pizzeria or two in every neighborhood or suburban town. This is buy a quart of beer and pick up a pizza territory. Flippers is just fine.

[Sillymetwo]

Chi-Town, that looks like an Aurellio’s pizza. Our absolute favorite. Originated south Chicago in Homewood, Illinois. It is now franchised and the closest is Naples. Went back “home” last month and couldn’t wait to get my Aurellio’s pizza. The secret is the sweeter sauce. Nothing like it here, and believe me, we’ve tried them all. The square pieces are called “tavern cut.” - pretty typical in Chicago. Personally, I prefer it to the wedge. Oooh, I miss my pizza.....

[784caroline]

[jerseyvillager]

While attending college in Northern NJ I loved the pizza on Times Square NYC. None better. Wonder what it is like today? While not like what I would call old fashion Pizza I give my vote to Mallory CC.

[retiredguy123]

Mallory CC pizza is good, but I prefer the pizza at Cane Garden. Very thin and always consistent. Some pizza places are not consistent in the way the pizza is prepared. I hate when you get a pizza that has almost no sauce, but it seems to happen a lot.

[kdemps523]

Try STAVROS on 441.

[collie1228]

I love pizza and originally come from the Utica, NY area, which has some of the best pizza restaurants in the world, due to it's large Italian-American population. I have been mostly disappointed in the pizza here, but find that Flippers is edible, if not great. The pizza at Francesco's in Summerfield is very good, but it's just too far to drive for take-out. When we go there for dinner I generally get the Bronx Bomber pizza and a bowl of Italian Wedding Soup. I'm getting hungry thinking about it. Mallory is OK, and I've heard from several people that NYPD is the best in The Villages, but I haven't tried it yet. I just can't do Papa Johns or any other large pizza chain.

[Bill32]

Mallory....

[walterray1]

My wife and I also like Francesco's. They have a daily 2 for 1 take out deal for pizza and pasta. You can also mix and match.

Well, we've been fortunate to have the only real, authentic, pizza on the planet...in Italy. Anything else pales in comparison. A real pizza made with double zero Italian flour, streched thin and topped with a little Extra Virgin olive oil, fresh San Marzano tomato sauce, a few dollops of fresh mozzarella ( not a whole bag of Sargento's), some porcini mushrooms and Prosciutto de Parma. Heaven On Earth.

Be careful about the parchment paper. I've set it on fire on the grill. Also, not advisable to use fresh moz. Use the bagged shredded that's dryer. The fresh had so much liquid in it, it boiled up and cracked two pizza stones.

Actually microwave can be dangerous and RISKY. If, the instructions do not give microwave instructions and since companies know most people have and used microwaves for quick cooking there probably is a reason.

Soups, you open a can of soup, nuke it for 2-3 min and it is done. I've never done it but I heard people CLAIM they cook it in the can. THAT IS NUTS. The coating of the can is not designed to be heated and the can is not designed to take the added pressure. The reason opening the can and heating the soup in say a bowl is the fact that since with microwaves it cooks from the inside, beans will often explode.

Oh to avoid my mistake. Chestnuts do not have instructions on them demanded by their legal staff. I cut an X into the shells to vent and to make it easier to remove the shells. One nut which I did cut an X into EXPLODED similar to a monster popcorn. The noise which remember was reduced by the door was like a small firecracker. The good news the door did not blow open. I think there is a safety lock on the door preventing it from opening while the microwave is producing microwaves which, can and would cook you.

Shhhh! The poor misguided northern transplants think there is a difference. Most of the major chains I've ordered their pizza's for dine in and an additional one's to take home and guess what? They taste the same. :1rotfl:

Absolutely correct. Some pizzas do better than others in the box but they all suffer from the experience. Giovanni’s pizza for one is ok in the restaurant but acquires a cardboard taste from transport home. Bravo’s does better in the box but still not the same as eating it fresh from the oven.

The BEST pizza is in Italy! Especially Da Maria in Amalfi or almost anything in Napoli. So sad most Americans, even those with Italian heritage, have no clue what REAL pizza is. Ducking now to avoid the arrows :D

:agree:

On our multi-day, leisurely, coastal drive from Portovenere down to Rome, we kept seeming to find one family pizza place...that was even better than the last. :cool:
