Bravo pizza in Massapequa is another old school pizza place.

When I think of the best pizza I'm not talking about fancy slices with pineapples & crap like that-those kinds of pizza can be good but IMO its almost a different food.


Colisseo is probably still the best around but they still don't accept debit or credit cards. When I go there--- 2 large pies with MEATBALL--- the BEST!!!

I have no insight as far as Nassau goes, but in Suffolk I go to Mama Lombardis straight from the airport when I visit. Sicilian only, the Neopolitan pie is just average.

Other favs are Little Vinnies, Aegean and Pizza Stop in Farmingville.

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
I think that same guy owned Pietro's in Seaford on Washington Ave., but they left that area. They put the seeds on the crust as well. Very good.

Woodbury Pizza was very good as well. Everything is always fresh.

I dated a boy who worked in Pietro's in East Meadow. We started dating before the owner opened up the shop on Washington Ave. I believe they opened that shop up in late 82 or early 83 as I had broken up with the boy by Aug of 83 and the shop was already open by then.

He's the one responsible for getting me hooked on sesame seed crust

The time frame is about right as I had a friend who delivered for Pietro's in Seaford for awhile. He also delivered for Mike's Firehouse Pizza on Merrick Road in Seaford as well.

Based on some of the comments here, I tried out Little Vincent's in Lake Ronkonkoma. I thought they made a very good pie - nothing amazing, but still very good. Their menu is very limited though - they do not have any rolls though, i.e. sausage roll, chicken roll, etc. and they have no seafood. The menu is very small. Sometimes when I am picking up things for a family get-together, having a variety of things to choose from is nice. I actually like Gino's, just a little further east on Portion Road in Lake Ronkonkoma. Good pizza, nice variety, good seafood, and they are always pretty crowded. It is surprising that I have not seen anything about Ginos on this thread. I have also liked Albert's in Lake Ronkonkoma, but they can be hit or miss sometimes. Sole Mio in Stony Brook (right next to the movie theater) is also very good and always packed - they have a great variety of special slices, i.e. buffalo chicken, grandpa slice, many different roles, etc. And I have to throw in a plug for Dalisa's in Deer Park near where I grew up - their pizza is awesome! Finally, believe it or not, Mama Sbarro's in North Babylon makes an awesome grandma's pie, espeically if you eat it there - give it a try, you won't regret it.

I worked at the pizza place across from the 7th precinct when I was in high school. Their pizza was horrible and the owner was a jerk, they went out of business a long time ago.

The best pizza in Seaford used to be Tarrello's but I haven't eaten there in almost ten years!

I've never gone to Sole Mio, now that I know they have Buffalo chicken pizza I have to give it a try. There was a Mama Sbarro's on 25A in Setauket and they had awesome pies -- I don't know whether there was a connection between them and the one in NBAB -- unfortunately they sold the Setauket location and the next guys in, Five Brothers, took a good business and good pizza and ran it into the ground
