Want a pizza!

[Uptown Girl]

Does anyone have info on the Pauly's Pizza that recently closed? It was located near Crispers (County road 101 & 466) and supposedly was to open again soon in a larger and different location. Their thin crust w/veggies pizza was REALLY good.


It is my understanding they are a separate entity from the Pauly's in Spanish Springs. They have no info they are willing to share.

[JohnN]

I hope someone replies, I've been looking for a good thin crust veggie pizza

Many of you know me as a total lover of TV.

That is not completly so.

There is a fly in the ointment.

I cannot find a good pizza here.

Like La Rosa's in Cincinnati.:grumpy:

Gracie, when you do please share with everyone. Moving to The Villages from 3.5 years in Italy we will be going through withdrawals for a good thin crusted pizza from a wood burning oven...

Longing for a Rosati's Chicago Pizza . . .

I like Little Joey's pizza pretty well.
Not like the streets of New York City, of course.

I agree...Little Joey's has to be the best in the Villages.:thumbup:

Good luck. I've been searching for pizza like I had in many places in Italy for many years. No luck. Everyone who lived in Italy knows what I'm talking about but nobody seems to be able to make it. I heard it's because of the water buffalo mozzeralla cheese they use in Italy, but who knows?
It isn't NY style, it isn't any style I've had in the U.S. but it's something I got used to and really like.

Where's the closest Domino's in TV????? :throwtomatoes: (just kiddin'!!! Ha-ha!!)

[jblum315]

:mmmm:You won't get pizza from a wood burning oven anywhere in the GOOD OLD USA.

Wood-burning ovens are used at Bertucci's in Chelmsford, Massachusetts....b

[duffysmom]

Pappa Johns has a very good thin, thin crust veggie pizza and they deliver.:thumbup:

[LittleDog]

I also like thin crust pizza and there was a place in NJ named Pete @ Eldas in neptune city which has great thin crust. The closest to that one here is the pizza at Cane Garden.

Pauly's is Pauly's is Pauly's. They presently are owned by the same group. There is also Papa John's Pizza who deliver. If you want GREAT pizza, go to Legend's Cafe in Fruitland Park - tell Nate or Pat that Tall Terri sent you!!!

[jblum315]

Wood-burning pizza ovens in Mamaroneck NY

[JohnN]

by the way, on the restaurant board, there are a few threads on pizzas.
This is an important topic!!!

[memason]

Doesn't Cane Gardens have a wood fired oven ??? I sure thought so, but I might be mistaken.

Anyone know?

[bluedog103]

:mmmm:You won't get pizza from a wood burning oven anywhere in the GOOD OLD USA.
There are quite a few wood burning pizza ovens around, both north and south but it isn't close to what you get in Italy. A lot of the pizzerias in Italy used to have coal burning ovens.

I'm sure you know that's not true Moe. You must mean something else? Do you mean 'good' pizza from a wood burning oven? There must be literally thousands of wood burning pizza ovens in the US. And there are actually coal fired pizza ovens as well http://slice.seriouseats.com/archives/2007/11/slice-coal-oven-pizzerias-nationwide-map.html

This include both Pepe's and Sallys in New Haven CT which I have been to numerous times and both serve a great NY style pie.

I think that group may have had a parting of the ways. The pizza in the alternate Pauly's location wasn't so pretty good looking to me or my taste buds. But, no matter.
Pizza is such a personal thing.... I first thought of asking fellow TOTV Chicagoans for new recommendations, because they would know what I was looking for.
But then I remembered that so called "Chicago Style Pizza" (deep dish goofy) was invented and introduced to Chicago for the first time in the early 70's by someone smart enough to market it to the "hip" North side of town, where people bought the concept hook, line and sinker. The rest of us took a pass and stayed with our own neighborhood Mom and Pop hand thrown masterpieces..... the REAL Chicago pizza.

Anyway, I'll keep a lookout and if I find something good again, I'll run it past the forum.
Thanks...:thumbup:

Papa John's is great!

Yep, they sure do. The pizza maker also puts on a pretty good show.

[hedoman]

On our most recent trip "home" I had Pizza at Bravos, Giavannis, Red Sauce and Pauly's in Spanish Springs just to decide once and for all time who is the best. Hands down winner was Pauly's where you will find us every Monday night when we arrive full time in the fall. Great guys there, even Bobby who HAS to wear his NY Yankees world champion tee shirt :(
Just because they beat our beloved Phillies.......

:mmmm:

[getdul981]

We have asked some of the folks that have grown up in the area about the best place to get pizza. We were told that Goodfella's up in Bellevue, just before you get to the Big K shopping mall on the right. We have not tried them yet, but soon. We have had pizza at Mallory CC and love theirs.

[texasfal]

Goodfellas is the best hands down!

[YodaMom]

Go to Mulberry Grove for good pizza. It is called Toscani's Deli and Pizzeria - excellent pizza and they deliver too. Their phone # is 352-693-2237. They just opened recently. They have subs and pasta dishes too.

[wendyquat]

We had a good wood-fired veggie pizza at Mallory CC yesterday! I suggested they have a garlic and goat cheese pizza option and they said they'd work on it.

We recently tried their pizza. It was pretty good. We bought some of their pinewheel sausage to grill also. It was tasty and unique to say the least.
