Freshetta makes a good frozen pizza. There is one called Against the Grain for those who need gluten-free. Digornos frozen pizzas are also good.

Ask 12 villagers about pizza and will get 13 different answers

We had heard good things about them. I went in to get a couple of slices. While waiting I looked around. I saw a 5 gallon bucket of sauce sitting on the ground, uncovered while people walked by with trash. I tried to convince myself it was being thrown out, but it turned my stomach. Wont return there.

We love DiGiorno’s frozen pizza! Their hand-tossed pizza is great, as is their Rising Crust pizza. We always keep several in our freezer. Beats any Villages pizza by a mile!

I have gone as far as ordering a pizza from Buffalo, NY a place called Bocce Club Pizza. They ship it overnight delivery on ice. I throw a pizza stone on my grill, fire the grill up to 400 degrees and in 10 min. I have “real” NY style pizza that is delicious. As you might suspect going this far to get a great pizza is a little crazy and expensive, $60 just for shipping but I love a great pizza. Lol.

Stavros and Belleview Pizza are my favorites.

Napolinos on 301 has excellent pizza

I’m really surprised by these posts! I’ve eaten at paisanos many times, and always get their pizza. The service and the pizza are always excellent! It’s my favorite place in The Villages so far. I guess no place is perfect for everyone. But as for me and my buddies, it’s always our go to pizza place, and it’s great!

They used to be “good” now I think they are just too busy and can’t handle it.

I have been able to find OK pizza but that’s about it. The search continues, lol. Yes as one poster mentioned “ we should all be so lucky to have these first world problems”. I’d still like to be able to find a really good pizza somewhere around here. First world problems, LMAO.

BIG BOBS in Weirsdale

we used to go to piesanos regularly, the food was good, service was excellent, then something happened. the pizza didn't taste as it usually did, the sauce way too spicy yet sweet, as if someone added sugar. entrees are too heavy on the garlic with not much else for flavor. i DID speak to someone about the change, they said it was recipe improvements. really? we tried marco, flippers and all the rest, but i'm really picky when it comes to pizza. the best these days is Gio's italian deli, with the huge sicilian squares they refer to as 'Grandma's Pizza.'

Very scant on sauce.
