Anyone been to five50 pizza in Vegas at all? Heard great things about their Gotham pizza but interested more in any reviews of the truffle pizza so I know whether to waste my time with it next trip over.

Giordanos is the worst of the Chicago deep dish players. Lou Malnatis is number 1.
I'm going to be in Schaburg for a week and that's where one of my friends said to go. Said there are plenty of really good places, but won't have to go into the city for it and it's just as good as the others

I don't like Lou Malnati's as much. The yeast flavor is way too strong in their crust. Tastes like shitty beer.

It's not pretty but this is one of the most authentic italian pizzas you can get in the US.

It tastes a lot better than it looks.
Ugh, black olives. I'm still convinced that growing up my parents would order their pizza with black olives just to keep us kids from devouring it.

Wife made us get Pizza Hut the other day. I tried my pizza and it was undercooked, soggy, tasted like shit, and had giant chunks of fat (I ordered bacon) on it.

Tried hers and it was the most godly pizza I had eaten in the past few months.

Thanks for the great quality control shit hut.

What is the deal with marinara sauce on Chicago style pizza? I'm not a huge fan of the sauce - All I've had is something like this, are there any other variants?

There are some pizzas that have a white sauce, but most are a red sauce (marinara, or some other derivative).

Most normal pizzas have it below the cheese but Chicago wanted to be different.

Chicago loves getting sick burns so it puts the hottest parts of food closer to the roof of your mouth.

Carrabba's has pretty decent pizzas. They have a chicken bryan pizza which has goat cheese / sundried tomatos and grilled chicken with white sauce on it. Pretty damn good. I've had their pepperoni as well and it was good.

There was an honestly good Pizza Hut around here for a long long time but it finally closed.

Pizza Hut used to hand roll their dough years ago, but these days all of it comes frozen off the truck. I'm not a fan of the open air ovens and the variability of cooking that comes from it as well.

Carrabba's is pretty damn good for a chain. I really like the oil/balsamic vinegar dip they give you with the bread.

Yeah I'm a pretty big fan. It is basically a better version of Olive Garden. Maybe not "true" italian but accessible and good food.

I agree. Especially if it keeps Grimmlokk and Joeboo away from my pizza.

I feel that Pizza hut is much worse than it used to be. Used to be my favorite national chain but I think they dropped their quality to compete with Domino's and Little Caesars.

Pizza Hut is still king for thin and crispy chain pizza. Thin n' Crispy + Meat Lovers is a damn good pizza. Haven't had it in years, though.

My wife used to work at Pizza Hut back about 10 years ago. She said everything was hand made and really good. Now it's definitely all pre-made.

Several Sunday nights I have ordered large deep-dish pizzas and they've called back saying they are out of deep dish dough......

Bro, you live in the sweet spot of Ohio for the king of all thin crust pizzas. Don't be fuckin' around with the amateurs.
