This post comes from our friend Kristin at
Small Reviews: I've been waiting to try
Grimaldi's pizza for about three years, so yesterday, when Roger and I happened to find ourselves in Dumbo for a
gallery opening, we decided to finally try it. After waiting on line outside for about 40 minutes, we finally entered the building, which is decorated with a lot of Frank Sinatra pictures and red-checkered tablecloths. It was crowded and we sat between two other couples, which was fine. We ordered two cokes and a pizza.
Let me preface the rest of the review by saying that I firmly believe that New York's Best Pizza should be New York-style pizza.
The pizza, coal-cooked, arrived very hot, and legitimately tasted pretty good. However (and perhaps this is my fault, for not fully understanding what I was getting myself into), it i

Mauro's Pizza-By-The-Slice in Hollywood, Florida is located on 1904 Hollywood Blvd. It's really simple why I love this slice of pizza: Cheap, greasy, huge delicious slices right next door to my favorite bar in Hollywood. Mauro is great because it knows exactly what it is. It's a hole-in-the-wall, cash-only joint with outside-only seating that caters to the locals who've been out for a night of drinking and need some grease to line their stomachs to prevent an impending hangover.
There's nothing fancy about it. No gourmet Italian cheese. No fancy charred crust. Just a nice marriage of the right amount of sauce, a nice fluffy crust and plenty of foldability. If there's a negative about Mauro, it might be an excess of grease. But after a few craft beers at PRL next door, I say bring it on.
For $2.50 you get a hot cheese slice th

This is our first review from
Co_Foodie! Glad to have them on board! You can find some of their other reviews on
Foodie Dreaming. On June 30th, we went to check out
Fat Sullys. This is an unassuming little pizza joint inside the
Atomic Cowboy. It was also my first
Denver Tastecasting event so I was very excited!
As I entered, I found a bunch of board games and great music greeting me. I joined the group and introduced myself. There were cute little signs on the tables, each one looking like a Twitter posting. Hungus came out and gave us a little introduction to Fat Sullys and then their wares started parading from the ovens.

After a day of traveling, I ended up in Marshall, TX for the night. The motel clerk recommended Gucci's Restaurant as having the good Italian food, as opposed to the Italian restaurant right across the street. After eating, I really hope Gucci's can't speak for all Italian restaurants in Texas.

The pizza was topped with half green peppers and half ground beef with a sesame seed crust. I am almost certain that Gucci's used pre-made pizza crusts. The crust was a horrible, dense, foamy bread. I say foamy because if the crust was poked with a fork, the holes would close up and appear that it was never stabbed. Although the crust had seemingly magical powers to heal itself, one thing it couldn't do was connect with cheese. Every bit of cheese, sauce, and topping slid right off the crust. Sometimes this happens if there is too much sauce on a pizza, but there was actually very little sauce on this pie. It's hard to tell exactly how much sauce the pizza started out with though because a
