Very yummy. Another place that has a good ole fashion pie is Sam's Club, of all places. And it is affordable, as well. Sometimes we'll get one with Mushrooms, Green Peppers, Olives, and Pepperoni. I'm tired of the chains, myself. If we have no choice, Pizza Hut and Papa Johns are fine in a pinch.

Originally Posted By vbdad55 Best thin Crust IMHO- in entire Chicago area - is Vito & Nicks.....Traverso's also pretty good. Very thin - crispy piled with toppings. Edwardo's a chain ( although a lot fewer of them than a few years ago) - and quality differences by site.

Originally Posted By geniesjoy On occasion Round Table Gourmet Veggie with white garlic sauce is good with thin crust (more toppings that go all the way to the edge) & of course added pineapple & pepperoni. But my other fav is pear & gargonzola cheese at Calif Pizza Kitchen, best enjoyed with my darling DD Dlf8. Total yum!!!
