Mauro Pizza Hollywood Florida Best Pizza

mauro.jpgMauro’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.

Capone’s Flickerlite Pizza in Hollywood

flickerlite1flickerlitepizza.jpgEveryone in Hollywood knows Flickerlite. The servers’ T-shirts say “Capone’s Flickerlite,” but I’ve only ever known the place by its second title. The guys who run it are Chicago transplants who made their way south in the 40s but established themselves as a go-to pizza place in the 80s and 90s. I ventured there after having some pretty stellar pizza on my last two visits, loaded up with veggies and meat. Again, for the sake of a fair review, I went for plain cheese with pineapple on half, medium, $10.65. Had I known these guys were Chicagoans beforehand, I would have opted for the signature deep dish. Either way, if you can’t make a cheese pizza well, it doesn’t matter how good your specialties are, in my opinion.

It wasn’t bad. But it wasn’t amazing either. The dough needed some salt and the pizza needed more sauce. I like a saucy pie. The cheese was OK but I wanted some more spice or zestiness. It did come served super hot which was a plus, and I just love the dock seating on the intercoastal. It’s hard to complain about a place that you can pull your boat up to, have a cold beer and some hot food. I will say that they do a lot of other things well (seafood, burgers), but it originally was strictly pizza, so I can’t give them bonus points for that stuff. If you’re on a boat in the intercoastal and trolling the waters for pizza I’d tell you to stop there. If you’re just in the area, I’d say cross over A1A and venture over to the boardwalk. 5 slices out of 8.

Sirrico’s Pizza Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood WORST PIZZA

If you are ever at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida and feel like spending $3.50 for a horrible slice of what I guess they consider Pizza, then have I got the place for you! Sirrico’s Pizza located in the food court of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida had this haunting aroma of garlic when I walked by it, and after getting the smell into my head I had to stop and take a look at what they were serving.
