Is that with or without cockroaches? I went in there as a guest of a friend a few years ago and there were cockroaches crawling on the wall behind the cashier. Might have been quite a while ago, but I'm not giving them a second chance. No way.

Call me a pizza snob, I know I am, but I just can't get excited about any of the pizzas I've had here. Papa Johns is decent, but you take two bites of a slice and there's no more cheese. They don't add cheese to the crust edge. Mom and Pops is more convenient for me and is pretty good, but it definitely fails the morning-after test. I've only gotten slices from St. James, and they are pretty good too, so I've never done the morning-after test on them

The crust is what's lacking on most of these, they just don't compare to NY/NJ/PA baked in a real stone pizza oven, not these conveyor belt contraptions. The crust tastes different here and has a different texture, and the general theory is the difference in the water, just like bagels. I do know that in NY the pizza dough is in it's own separate sealed container brushed in olive oil while it rises, and here they put the dough, uncoated, in open bins to rise. Seems to make a difference when it's baked, the crust here just doesn't get crispy.

Anyway.... my 2 cents. Now I need to make a NY trip, got a hankerin' for pizza!

AMEN Brother Pizza Snob :)
fwiw the oil is to keep the outside from drying out, that way the dough doesn't get little flecks of dry crap in it.
The bagel issue is similiar, most of the bagels we see in stores are just baked, not boiled first, then baked. That process is what gives bagels that flavor and texture that is lacking in "bagel" you find in most bakery departments. I refer to them as rolls with holes. Spiros is the only bagel.

Pizza Hotline

Pizza Hotline in Charlotte Hall is probably the best around here. They don't shy on the extra cheese and their bread sticks are good. Not cheap though. Ledos is decent, I like the thick-cut pepperoni and thin wafery crust. It's a little too greasy though.

Nobody comes close to a place I went to in Connecticut called Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana

They baked the pizza in a coal-fired oven. Only two food items on the menu: Pizza and house salad.

Wow! St James. This thread encouraged me to try it. Not only is it tasty it is also a bargain (if you are down that way) The wings were also very good.

It's a medium crust and they don't skimp on the toppings.

Sometimes I prefer more of a deep dish style pizza. Then I get Nicoletti's...The works sans black olives and onions. The beast still weighs about 10 pounds.

I'm with Psy Ops, Three Brothers is the closest to the kind of pizza I like (Jersey style, I call it) around here.

I definitely agree. I was so happy when they opened Three Brothers here. It's the closest to NY pizza. Just had their white pizza last night. :drool: I don't know if there's one in SMC though.

Last time I ordered pizza from Nicoletti's they told me it'd be ready in 20 mins. When I arrived 20mins later to pick it up, they must've not even had it in the oven yet. I wound up waiting 20 mins, they kept telling me "it's almost done, just 2 more mins". I'll never go there again.

I second your vote. A little pricey though.

Pricey?

We got TWO large pizzas (and they were BIG) For $24. One was cheese and one was a meat lover thing. Whole strips of bacon! :faint: The pepperoni slices were the size of my fist.

I paid $25 for a large Papa John's last week (including tip) It was good but not close to St. James.

You know, I always forget about one I frequent..... Jerry's Pizza and Subs in Solomons. That is actually a very good pie, more like a NY style than any I've had around here. Good flavor, a bit of dripping oil, crust is just ok, it's still cooked on a conveyor. Even passes the morning after test, although there is usually none leftover.
