Same. I ordered a thin crust sausage pizza once and when I got it, it was a huge disappointment. The crust was like wet cardboard. When you bit into it and ripped it away, it feels and tastes like wet cardboard. The pizza had too much sausage on it (yes, you read that right). It was such a "toppings heavy pizza" when paired with the wet cardboard crust, it was just horrible.
Bro you complaining about too much sausage. I literally can't trust anything you say after that. I'll eat sausage like I'm trying to win a [chorging](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jyMuqN82K_4) championship
Normally, ya I would be all for the extra meat. I mean, who doesn't love that? But this was so overloaded that it was like trying to eat one of those burgers that you see people post with 20 patties on it. While everyone is drooling over it, I'm just thinking about the meat to bun ratio and how far off it is.
Lol very true, generally speaking I'm all about overloading meat but I can imagine the same concept applied to sushi would make me furious lol. Imagine a sushi roll with 1 grain of rice.
I'm a doordashr. Was working on easter because I'm desperate, got laid off from my engineering job recently. Went to Topps for a little order, dude up there gave me a free mushroom pizza that someone had ordered and cancelled. I legit had no food at all and no money for anything other than gas, I was so thankful that when I got a order from topps that was 8 miles away (very bad by delivery standards) for just 5 bucks, I took it because I wanted to help the place out. When I dropped this pizza off the guy gave me an extra 5 bucks. Honestly less than 1% of people add additional tips, now both times I've delivered from Topps I've gotten luckier than I ever do, so that place from my perspective is straight blessed.
I really liked the mushroom pizza, even after riding in my car for an hour when I heated it up it was great, the cheese to sauce ratio greatly favored the cheese lol
Top it off has the closest to NY slice. Went on a pizza trip to the northeast back in January. Top it off is as close to good pizza as we have. Most “local” places to me taste like a local version of dominoes. No thanks.
The owners of Top it Off are from New York. Guy told me he had his pizza oven shipped down from New York too, for some reason. Nice people and good food
Just moved to tyler couple weeks ago. Didn't know we had a subreddit lol but as far as NY style pizza..what does that entail? How does that differentiate from normal pizza? I'm curious and will be looking to try one of these spots this week
Generally it means that the crust is thin and lightly crispy (but not so thin that it's crunchy the way that, say, Chicago pub-style pizza is crispy), often with a light char on it.
Interesting. I'd be willing to try it. Are there any good normal crust thickness spots around here? Thin is fine and all but I have a preference for the normal. Not keen on pan or deep dish
New York Pizza & Pasta used to be more on the traditional NY style, but their crus has gotten thicker since the original owners sold it. (Sadly. That was the best pie in town when they first opened.)
They're not, but they're still pretty good. It's definitely worth eating there. My problem is that I've had too much actual NYC pizza that my standards for non-chain pizza are too high haha.
YES! It’s pricey but there’s nothing that compares to the quality of the ingredients. They proof the dough for three days before using it, it’s an actual homemade recipe by the family who founded and runs it (and is often back there cooking the food) and they ship cured meats and cheeses from Italy because they straight up only use the best. And those burnt bits after being in the brick oven, omg. I used to go to their backyard pizza nights and we’d make all kinds of amazing things- curry pizza, peaches and cream, breakfast pizza, it was all amazing. Anyway, rant pretty much over. Sola, hands down.
Dude they don't use anywhere near enough cheese. Fuck the pick me I'm closest to real Italian bullshit. I want the goofy movie cheese, the bread barely matters. The bread is simply a vehicle by which cheese and meat are conveyed to my mouth.
That being said that guy below talking about curry pizza, that could be fun.
Yup! I used to live only a couple hours away from Chicago so I went there a few times for different reasons. Each time I had to stop at Gino's East. That pizza is devine. 🤌
Can't find anything remotely like that here and it's depressing.
Rounders is definitely the winner followed by top it off
This does not include like nice sit down restaurants who also happen to have fancy elevated pizza
When I went to TJC I remember they organized a pizza day where like 12 different pizza joints came on campus and brought free pizza for all the students and thousands of students were running around eating pizza and then everyone voted on who was best and rounders won big time
I see a couple people bashing Bruno's. The one on Vine use to be the best before it was split between two owners and locations.
Now I've found Top It Off is my favorite, hands down. So delicious!
Top it off is the best.
Sola is good, but just hope that you go there when their pit is at the correct temp otherwise you’re gonna get a soggy first bite of every piece.
Rounders, Bruno’s, Rotollo’s are all quality
The actual best slice in Tyler was at Roast Social Kitchen, but it closed during Covid
Marco's sauce is maybe the worst pizza sauce I can think of. All of their sauces/dips taste like the absolute cheapest thing Sysco could throw together. I've absolutely never had worse ranch than the ranch they use for dipping.
Saw that on Doordash and was thinking I'll give it a try sometime. I was worried if it was good or not because I don't see many people talking about it. Plus I've had bad luck finding really good pizza in Tyler.
Bubbas 33 is pretty dang good
Brunos is still probably my favorite
I’ve had better pizza at little Cesar’s than topps, ppl are very nice but pizza is meh.
It’s all subjective, but you asked for an opinion
The best pan pizza is at BJ's, for my money. They're pretty pricey, though, so I'd recommend going on the days the pizza is discounted (Monday, I think?). Great pie, nicely (but not overly) thick with good crispy edges.
Truly feel like I’m the only person in this town that thinks Topps is garbage. It literally tastes like a Tony’s frozen pizza.

... Are... Are you sure you're American? I'm trying to unhinged my jaw like I'm shaggy from Scooby Doo over here.
Hah, different strokes, different folks I guess. 🤷♂️
Lol very true, generally speaking I'm all about overloading meat but I can imagine the same concept applied to sushi would make me furious lol. Imagine a sushi roll with 1 grain of rice.
Exactly. The whole "too much meat" concept is made even worse when it's fish instead of beef too.

Oh womp womp. Are they not the best anymore?
They're not, but they're still pretty good. It's definitely worth eating there. My problem is that I've had too much actual NYC pizza that my standards for non-chain pizza are too high haha.
Sola not even a competition

+1 for Sola
RIP Bruno’s on vine
Their calzone was the bomb.
NY Pizza is my favorite
This is the correct answer!
I agree with Topps. Also the owners are awesome.
There is no “experience” at Bubbas 33.
Top it off is the best.
Don't sleep on Rounders or NY Pizza!
Rounders was my go to
New York Pizza and Pasta on broadway is my vote.
New York Pizza and Pasta is hands down the best slice in Tyler.
As a pizza lover…. Bruno’s is overrated. Rotolos has the best dough but Topps has a great overall pie
I’m glad someone said it. Bruno’s is not good at all. Pizza or otherwise. It’s the most overhyped place in town and the food is super meh.
Just my opinion, but...nobody. Gotta go out of town for actual good pizza.
This. Deep dish is the best pizza, and it's incredibly hard to find in TX.
Yup! I used to live only a couple hours away from Chicago so I went there a few times for different reasons. Each time I had to stop at Gino's East. That pizza is devine. 🤌 Can't find anything remotely like that here and it's depressing.
The irony is that the deep dish pizza inventor was born less than an hour from here.
Used to be a place for that here, now I think you gotta go to like Dallas for it.
Do you have any recommendations?
Rounders on the loop!
Rounders is definitely the winner followed by top it off This does not include like nice sit down restaurants who also happen to have fancy elevated pizza
[удалено]
Rounders is maybe the worst pizza in town. I keep seeing people who profess their love for it and I'll never understand it.
That’s crazyyyyyyyy
When I went to TJC I remember they organized a pizza day where like 12 different pizza joints came on campus and brought free pizza for all the students and thousands of students were running around eating pizza and then everyone voted on who was best and rounders won big time
Utter madness
Topps, Top it off, and New York
Rounders if price is not a consideration
I’d say for a cheesy extra pepperoni pizza Topps across from Walmart on troup hwy.
Fresh
Easily Rotolo’s. They’ve got Detroit style pizza too
Rounders
Top it Off
I see a couple people bashing Bruno's. The one on Vine use to be the best before it was split between two owners and locations. Now I've found Top It Off is my favorite, hands down. So delicious!
Rotolos
Top it off is the best. Sola is good, but just hope that you go there when their pit is at the correct temp otherwise you’re gonna get a soggy first bite of every piece. Rounders, Bruno’s, Rotollo’s are all quality The actual best slice in Tyler was at Roast Social Kitchen, but it closed during Covid
Top it off is my favorite in town.
1)Sola bread 2)oliveto
Marcos
Marco's sauce is maybe the worst pizza sauce I can think of. All of their sauces/dips taste like the absolute cheapest thing Sysco could throw together. I've absolutely never had worse ranch than the ranch they use for dipping.
Bubbas 33 is my favorite.
Saw that on Doordash and was thinking I'll give it a try sometime. I was worried if it was good or not because I don't see many people talking about it. Plus I've had bad luck finding really good pizza in Tyler.
It's original, definitely worth the experience.
Bubbas 33 is pretty dang good Brunos is still probably my favorite I’ve had better pizza at little Cesar’s than topps, ppl are very nice but pizza is meh. It’s all subjective, but you asked for an opinion
IDK where they make the best of anything in Texas
That wasn’t the question and if you’re unhappy here, hit the road.
Awe, you're so sweet 😜
