What is the best Pizza on Long Island? (Hicksville, Holbrook: moving to, dinner)

Just had Eddie's in NHP a week ago...really great. Nice guy, great pizza. Ultra thin, crisp pie. Very nice change of pace. Still love Grimaldi's and Mama T's, though.

i remember mario's in Plainveiw! good stuff!

I'm not sure about Long Island, but I know that Gaby's has the best pizza in NYE,

I'd venture the best in NYS and beyond.

Not that I've tased all the pizza in NYS, but Gaby's Pizza is soooo good.

Also, the little pizza shop near the bus terminal on 165th street and Jamaica Avenue has nice, light, crispy crust.

I don't recall what the pizzeria in the former A&P shopping center was called, but lat time I was there (over 25 years ago) it wasn't Brooklyn Boys. I just remember going in there in HS with some friends one afternoon. We put some change into the jukebox and for some bizarre reason, the song, Renegade (by Styx), kept playing over and over and over. If I hear that song I still think of that day in the pizzeria.

My old boyfriend worked for a pizzeria in East Meadow, Pietro's, and the owner there used to put sesame seeds on the crust (by request) It was delicious. I've tried to get that out here, but no one does it

Joe's Pizza in Holbrook does sesame crust JFYI it is on Union Ave in the Waldbaum's shopping center

GABY'S, by the way, is in Northern Queens Village.

I like a thin crust but I didn't care for Eddie's at all. Too pita bread like crust..

Another place that does it is Bucci's Pizza on 101 in East Patchogue. The pizza's nothing special, though.

My choices:

1) Amore Pizza, Brentwood Road & Union Blvd, Bay Shore
2) Delfiore Pizza, North Ocean Avenue & Oak Street, Patchogue
3) Savarona Pizza, Stop and Shop and Kohl's shopping center, Shirley
4) Pompeii, Rocky Point Road and 25A, Rocky Point
5) Little Vincent's, Ronkonkoma (mentioned over and over again)

Most overrated: Gino's, Main Street, Patchogue - that pizza is as fresh as three-day old milk.

Spasso's in Wantagh on Wantagh Ave (in the shopping center) has the sesame crust pizza (I love it). They call it Brooklyn style. It's great!
