zcaveman and tommyt---We would drive miles out of our way to go to Patti's. The last time we kept driving in circles trying to find it. Finely gave up and assumed they had closed. This was years ago.

Alright. I've been waiting for someone to ask what the heck this is so this Ohio girl will ask--what the heck is this???

I miss the chain "East of Chicago" pizza we had in Ohio.

Never had one but it sure looks good!

But I'll take a Chicago Italian Beef with sweet peppers ! (and not the ones sold at the joint that closed next to Katie Belles)

Upon arriving, we discovered Bella's is take-out, delivery and catering. Not an eat-in restaurant.

So, we ordered a traditional crust sausage pizza and a salad, waited in the car and brought it home.

Menu has quite a few choices besides pizza, the people were very nice and what we ordered was made fresh. The place was clean and we thought the prices very reasonable.

For pizza, you can choose from 3 kinds of crust, 5 different sauces & cheeses and a myriad of meats, fruits and fresh vegetables.

We may try one again sometime. Gonna explore some more.

Does anyone else wish UNO Pizza would move into the area. Granted it is not the typical pizza, but it sure is GOOD !!!!

That being said, I'm sure my hubby will want to check out all the pizza places in TV when we get there just to be sure!

Angiefox.... I am from Milwaukee and I too miss the areas pizza.

Two different people have recently told me that there's a place in Spring Hill called Guido's run by a guy from the Racine/Kenosha area that make the closest thing to that style of pizza around.

has anyone tried the Chicago deep dish at Legends Cafe?

This is for the folks who say I have rose colored glasses.

There isn't any La Rosa's Pizza or Donato's Pizza in this area. And because of that, there isn't any ANY excellent Pizza in these parts, i.e. The Villages, Lower Paradise, my home town, does not have excellent Pizza!!!!!!

Excellent Pizza is like the Pizza from your home town.

Now I am going to talk about another local sandwich I would like to try.

All of you Buffaloanians rave about this. I can't find a Kimmelweck roll, which I have figured out is a "bun" with kosher salt and caraway seeds on it. So I may have to bake one, unless one of you is gonna fly one in for me.

Swimdawg???? You have a little container to carry on the plane???

The pork roll sandwich last week was yummy!

That Beef on weck sandwich looks good. Never heard of it before.

Agree with you about the place that was next to Katie Belles. Their Italian beef was just OK. We got it once and that was it. Their pizza was better.

Sorry I had to post, and the best pizza: and only pizza: is REAL NEW YORK PIZZA, the kind that you can fold over and allow the grease from the cheese drip down your arm.....and served on a paper plate....that's real pizza folks! And NO I am not from New York....just know GOOD pizza!

And by the way, Welcome to TOTV, Pastor!

Grandfather's pizza was the best!

[SALYBOW]

Nope, Gracie is correct. Cincinnati has many good pizza brands, but IMHO, La Rosa's is best.

Here2stay, bravo. We've lived in 8 states, and NY/NJ pizza is the best ever. I think because mostly it's from small independent shops, as opposed to chains. The folding... the dripping... the exact correct ratio of sauce to cheese. I'm having a meltdown just thinking about it. And so many of the little places, you can walk in and buy by the slice. Ohhhhh.... (sob)
