Joe’s Pasta-N-Pizza—Pretty Good Pizza in Weatherford, TX
It was Christmastime, and Mrs. Pie and I were visiting family in her hometown of Weatherford, Texas. (I sure am slow in writing these reviews, ain’t I?) We already had our now annual holiday tradition of a family gathering at Nizza Pizza, our favorite pizza place in town. For reasons unknown, it had been a […]
Columbus, Ohio’s A Slice of New York—Tasty Campus Pizzeria in Transition
Coming back to Columbus for work duties, I continued my assault on the capital of the Buckeye State. I thought, why not look in the Ohio State campus area? You would think that out of 65,000 students, there would enough who refused to settle for chain pizza and instead support an indie. Scoping things out, […]
Mulberry Street Pizzeria—A Wow of a Slice in Beverly Hills
It was starting to get dark on a Sunday evening. Although my long weekend in Los Angeles was coming to an end, there was still time for one last pizza stop. This one was a recommendation by my pizza-loving friend BP who had spent a few years living in the City of Angels. The place […]
Culver City, CA’s La Rocco’s Pizzeria—A Great Slice in the Downtown District
My next West Coast pizza adventure was the choice of my California pal in his home town of Culver City: a moderately-upscale movie business-centric community in the shadow of Los Angeles. The place was La Rocco’s Pizzeria, a small storefront restaurant in the somewhat swanky renovated downtown dining district. It was a busy Saturday night […]

Combo’s New York Pizzeria—A Tasty Slice of Pizza in the Center of Hollywood
Still on my L.A. sojourn, my Left Coast buddy and I headed into Hollywood for some necessary business at the world’s greatest record store. Afterwards, we took a stroll over the stars on Hollywood Boulevard and made an unplanned pizza stop at Combo’s New York Pizzeria. In addition to its blatant name appeal, Combo’s looked […]
Joe’s Pizza—The Pizza Snob Finds a Perfect Slice on the Left Coast
Hard to believe that it was over 10 years since I last visited the Los Angeles area. Finally making my way back, I had a feeling that I would be able to find some good NY-style pizza there. If both the Dodgers and Giants baseball teams could make their way to California, I figured that […]
Big Ed’s Pizza—Oak Ridge, TN Pizza-Making Institution
As we exited I-40 for the city of Oak Ridge, it was totally lost on me when my travelling companion said he wondered if everyone would be singing “Elvira.” To me, the city had always been the place with the nuclear power plant you pass on the way to Knoxville from Nashville. I had never […]
Sal & Carmine Pizza—New York Slice Perfection on the Upper West Side
The Pizza Snob is a master at the art of working a pizza stop into almost any situation. With this having so far been a low-volume pizza trip to New York, a Saturday slice adventure was a must. In addition, with back-to-back Margherita experiences, it was time to return to the basics with a New […]
L’asso Pizza—A Great Margherita Slice in NOLITA
Anytime spent in the New York City area with Mrs. Pie means at least one dinner in Little Italy. While we never know where we are going or remember where we went, we always seem to have a satisfying dinner and a great time. We arrived in the city just before 6pm to secure some […]
