Surprisingly the Cheesecake Factory has some of the best BBQ Chicken pizza.

The toppings and home made sauce were all fresh and generously piled on. Now I see the new owners are offering whole wheat crust (yuch) and deep dish pizza. I probably won't go back and ruin my memories of the best pizza ever.
Originally Posted By Kennesaw Tom I grew up in an Italian neighborhood and I'm use to so many incredible different kinds of pizza, cold pizza, greek pizza you name it. There is even a place out in Provincetown, MA that makes a tunafish pizza ( absolutely incredible ). Here in Georgia we really don't have the selection typically found elsewhere. When in Rome I guess.

They make the Sicilian with very thick dough, then place the cheese, then the sauce. This makes for an even distribution of sauce. In my opinion, the sauce is what makes or breaks a pizza. New York pizza rocks!

Originally Posted By RoadTrip Best Chicago Pan Style: Green Mill; various locations in Minnesota. This pizza is a masterpiece. It is a good 2 to 3 inches deep. It is built in reverse order of typical pizzas. You start with a fantastic pan pizza crust and then add cheese, the various ingredients, and then top it off with a generous helping of a WONDERFUL tomato sauce with big chunks of tomato in it. The ingredients are all first rate, and their sausage is the best I've ever had. Best Thin Crust Pizza: Luigi’s Pizza, three locations in the Branson, Missouri area. Their “St. Louis Style” thin crust pizza is the best I’ve ever had. Even though the curst is cracker thin, it is wonderfully tasty – a hard combination to find. I’m not sure what they use in their cheese blend, but it provides a slight “creaminess” that you don’t usually find in pizza cheese. The ingredients Luigi’s uses are again first rate. I would not be able to decide which of the above was my “favorite”. They are completely opposite styles of pizza, and each is superb for its type.
