Best Pizza in Columbus?

[Andrew Hall]

No food is worth being disrespected for and that includes even the best restaurants in the world.

Even so, Flying Pizza is not that superior to others in Columbus as to not be easily substitutible.

My vote is for Rubino’s.

i tried rubino’s for the first time two weeks ago. what’s up with the paper bag??? allows for the pizza to get cold quickly.

pizza was pretty good, very thin crusted. spaghetti was typically boring.

To clarify, I’m definitely not advocating being disrespected in any frame of reference, let alone at a restaurant, where service should be as valuable as the quality of food. Simply a metaphor to explain how good Flying Pizza actually is, and putting up with their weird hours, and possibility of disrespect.

Has anyone mentioned Tommy’s yet, had it again last week, yum!

I actually really love Easy Street’s pizza, with Planks on Parsons a close second.

my vote is for the rossi or adriaticos.

Enrico’s on Frantz Rd in Dublin.

Great family operated pizza joint….

My vote goes to The Rossi or Zamarelli’s Pizza Palace in Grove City.

Never got it to go. Whenever you eat pizza not at the place, all bets are off. Whenever pizza is discussed, there should be two categories – in-house and off-premise.

Flying Pizza (on campus) is better when getting a slice. It was – and may still be – the only place on campus to get a slice. Crisping up the crust in the oven improves it, though their use of the cheapest ingredients (told to me by an employee years ago) brings it down.

Adriatico’s just offends me for calling itself ‘New York’ style. Haven’t had it in a long time, but it certainly wasn’t memorable either way.

you can get slices at cat fish biffs, but that might be even cheaper ingredients

I would have added Pizza Plus in Gahanna had I only gotten it once. The first time it was outstanding, easily best in Columbus by a mile. Subsequent visits were anywhere between OK-but-not-worth-the-trip to downright bad.

Bloody flatlanders! Anywhere else, this is know as “Pittsburgh style”.” :lol:

When OSPC (Fromaggio now, I think) opened, I was all excited to have Pittsburgh-style for the first time in years. Then I got it and realized why I never bothered even when in ‘burgh.

I’ve been to Pittsburgh. I have friends in Pittsburgh. And that pizza, sir, is not Pittsburgh-style. As far as I know, it originated in the Ohio Valley, specifically the Wheeling/Steubenville area. And has since spread out some through Ohio. Everyone refers to it as “Valley-style.”

I will tell you what, though. I had Frank’s Pizza in Ambridge and it just knocked my socks off. But that is a traditional-style pizza.
