Carrabbas' Pizza Excellent
 
I had pizza at Carrabbas for the first time last night. They serve a 10" thin-crust pizza with a choice of two toppings for $10. I had one with Kalamata olives and sausage and it was excellent. Thin-crust pizza doesn't travel well, so I would think you'd want to eat it there rather than take out.

We love the pizzas at Carrabbas as well.

I got delivery from NYPD a few nights ago. Had calzone (without the "butter and garlic" topping) with sausage, a greek salad and zepoles. It was very good, they got the order right, even included a little cup of marinara for dipping.

We went to NYPD with another couple after a show at Savannah Ctr and it was our first time there. It was wonderful. We got the Queen's Deluxe, thin and crispy with thick but cooked edges. Best pizza we've had since we moved here from Massachusetts. It is now our go to place. Service was great too.

Maybe NYPD has improved. I'll give them one more chance.

Had a good meal of 2 huge slices at NYPD with 4 other people who also had 2 very large pizza slices. For the reasonable price, it was quite good. Would definitely go back.

I grew up near a town in upstate NY who's claim to fame was the Endicott-Johnson Shoe Company, and the birthplace of a little company called IBM. Many, many polish, italian & irish immigrants settled there. My introduction to pizza was at a little italian "hole in the wall" where an old grandfatherly guy called "Duff" hand-made pizzas & cooked them in an old coal oven. I got spoiled with that pizza, and with the exception of Lombardo's in NYC, I've never found a pizza that could match Duff's. Doesn't mean that I don't eat or don't like pizza, but I've never found anything that I liked as much as his.

I'm also from NY. I haven't had a good pizza since I moved here. NYPD is pretty good, Bravo's is also good, Mallory is good too. The worst are Luigino's and Flippers. Most of all I wish I could get a great hot dog. I have to send to NY to get my Salhens and Wardinski's, with my Webers mustard, oh yeah and Beef on Weck. yum

The ONLY pizza that tastes right to any of us is the pizza we grew up with. We have a LOT of unhappy pizza seekers here.

They serve Beef on Weck at the Bowling Alley restaurant at Spanish Springs.


Tell us about Sahens and Wardinski's hot dogs. What makes them good? Anything like Nathans? Nathans are new to me since I moved to Florida and I think they taste nice.

went there yesterday at about 2:30 pm and asked for two slices - i was told no slices after 2pm ????? i can get a slice any hour of the day in NYC - i could have bought a small (i think 8"or 10")pizza for $6.95 or $7 - No Thank you

Duffs!!!! Haven't heard that name in a while. It was always my in-laws choice when they wanted pizza.

Now I have to settle for Brozzetti's when we go back.

Tried NYPD .... wouldn't go back.

I have called for delivery several times and no one answers the phone...guess the don't want the business....

REDCART 03-22-2013 05:15 PM

NYPD Pizza cannot compare to Bravo's--and they answer the phone. Bravo's is as close to a NY pizza as you're going to find in this area. It even costs the same as a NY pizza!

Beef on weck at the bowling alley?? We had that in buffalo 3 years ago and all I've done is talk about how good it was. Is it any good at the bowling alley?? May have to give it a try.
