The Dean Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 This needs to be moved to Off the Wall. I always thought that the pizza in Niagara Falls was better than the pizza in the Bufftown. After living in Boston, NYC, SF, LA and now northern Florida, I think Buffalo pizza is generally, consistently OK. LaNova is the perfect example...there is really nothing special or interesting about LaNova pizza, IMO. It's better than the average pizza in most towns, though. As I prefer an extremely thin crust, cooked in a VERY hot oven, until crisp, most Buffalo pizza just isn't my style.
DrDawkinstein Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 i had some Just Pizza when i was home last week, it was the exactly the type of pizza ive been longing for down here in Atlanta. Id go with La Nova too.

Id go with La Nova too. I'm a Bocce's guy. That's the one I get everytime I go back home to visit. (although I did get La Nova from a street cart on Chippewa last time I was home for the Bills Jets game)

Chandler#81 Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Pizza Junction -NT Always stop there when I get back. Great Fingers too!
The Dean Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Pizza Junction -NT Always stop there when I get back. Great Fingers too! Pizza Junction is among the top pizzas in WNY, IMO. LaHacienda (Pine Avenue), Buzzy's and Ventry's (for slices) in Niagara Falls, are good, as well. IMO, although it has declined, LaHacienda in Niagara Falls is the best pizza in the area. Pepperoni, WELL DONE, eat it there...heaven! Mister Pizza used to be good (like a better version of LaNova), but I've only had it once since it moved, and it was just OK. Just Pizza is just OK, in my book. I'd add Santoras to that list, too. If you are explicit on how you want the pizza made, they do an OK job. Bocce is good, but I can't eat it all the time. There used to be a Bocce knock-off that was good, too (Milano's maybe?). Isn't there a pizzeria in WNY that uses wood fired, or coal fired, brick ovens and makes their pizzas very thin, and cooks then until the crust is blackening? I thought there was a Tuscan-style place in the area.
buffaloboyinATL Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Bocce is good, but I can't eat it all the time. There used to be a Bocce knock-off that was good, too (Milano's maybe?). Yeah Dean, it was called Milano's. I ate there all the time when I was in college. THe owner used to work at Bocce's and opened his own place with basically the same recipe. I agree that Pizza Junction is good but I like their subs and wings more than their pizza.
stuckincincy Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) I liked Avenue, just off of Hertel. But try the new frozen offerings. DeGiornio broke the mold in years ago - made frozen pizzas pretty good - but they've gone to the garlic dark side, unfortunately. I recommend the Tombstone brand...$4.50 to $3.50 price depending on on-sale price. Easy to cook - buy a 6-buck aluminum perforated pizza pan, plop it on - 15 - 18 minutes in a pre-heated 400F oven. Give one a try - you might find that that high horse you are sitting on, declaring yourself a pizza gourmand of the first rank, falls into the toilet when you find yourself still burping with satisfaction and saving 10 bucks...

Chilly Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Cincy, while frozen pizzas can be good when you don't have a good local one, the fresh cheese on a good local pizza is just amazing

Get one of these at Amazon or Walmart, they do an amazing job.
stuckincincy Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Get one of these at Amazon or Walmart, they do an amazing job. I'm sure they are amazing. Been on the market for a while. I'm also sure they have set up a shell corporation for that with zero assets to avoid totally valid liability claims.

If you are (God forbid) going to make frozen pizzas, you might want to try cooking one on a pizza/baking stone (bricks are fine, too). It actually makes the crust acceptable, for the most part.
