Ferraro's. Hole in the wall place in Soulard. You know they're the real deal since they don't advertise being a NY-pizza place, but rather a new jersey pizza place. If you're an east-coast pizza snob, this is by far your best bet in the good ole' STL.<br /><br />2. Raccanelli's*. More of a NY-style place. *Very streaky. Sometimes I eat their pizza and can't believe I'm in St. Louis; other times, I can't help but think I've accidentally ordered Imo's. <br /><br />3. Il Vicino in Clayton. Best wood-fire pizza I've had in the STL. It's like The Good Pie, but cheaper, simpler, and well.. better! They also typically have one "home-brew" on tap as well, an added bonus.<br /><br />I thought I had tried most every pizza in St. Louis on my quest to find a decent NY pizza, but haven't heard of Pizza-a-go-go. Will have to try it out!Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08003156591063370819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3356197772493765397.post-36259812676557139662009-03-10T08:55:00.000-05:002009-03-10T08:55:00.000-05:00I agree that provel cheese sucks...big time (unles...I agree that provel cheese sucks...big time (unless you like the feeling of melted plastic sticking to the backs of your teeth), however, if you want a delicious version of St. Louis thin crust pizza check out Cafe Manhattan in Clayton and make sure to ask for mozzerella instead of provel.<BR/><BR/>One more note..."toasted ravioli MAY have redeeming qualities"?

Imo's is awesome.
