This vegan pizza truck is quite a find… I’ve had vegan pizza before and there has been terrible pizzas as well as pizzas I thought were quite more than decent (which at this level gets a lot of rave from any vegans frustrated with subpar food and/or taste). Possum Pizza, taking over a parking lot with two other food trucks at an abandoned property (up for lease/sale?), took it to another level – churning out slices and pies that I, an omnivore, can actually love. So yes, they found a way to make me crave a slice of their vegan pies. I had the macaroni cheese and bacon (veganized) slice that has a drizzle of ranch dressing (this is a second time in which I’ve enjoyed vegan ranch dressing – a feat considering that I’m not a fan of ranch dressing under most scenarios). It had a kick, even though it was touted as being less spicy than their other available pie that was instantly available (I came in the late afternoon, my fault) – but it was perfect for me, who is spicy-hot-averse. And the best kick of it all? It’s quite affordable for vegan food – even compared to other vegan pizzerias in town (at this date, we have three in Austin, the new vegan capital?). Bravo Possum, bravo!

WestSide Tilth Farm – Menu with Prices – 246 Normal Ave, Buffalo

I noticed a sign advertising the Westside Tilth Farm and pizza at the corner of Richmond and Vermont on Saturday morning, and headed down Vermont to check it out. The farm looked lovely, as did the produce for sale, but let’s be honest, the pizza was the main draw for me. The four types of pizza offered on the day I visited were a Margherita, four cheese, Bianca, and a vegan one. I was with my husband and a friend, so we decided to get one of each, except for the vegan one since that one had cashew cheese and my husband’s allergic, and split them. You could opt for additional toppings like Italian sausage or carrot greens for a few dollars more, but we decided to get the pies as they were. There were two picnic tables with umbrellas, as well as several benches, so we snagged a spot. Since it’s an urban farm, there isn’t too much room, but no real issues with my son’s stroller. My ideal pizza crust is fairly thin but still chewy, and the farm’s pizza hits the mark. I would have liked it if there were more variety in pizzas, though, as our three pizzas were pretty similar to each other. For a farm, I would have expected to see more of their veggies on the pizzas. We could have added on some for a few extra dollars, but the pizzas were already around $14 each. Three pizzas for three adults worked out well for us, though three less hungry people might be content with just two pies. While I wouldn’t come for pizza every Saturday, this is a good Saturday morning kind of activity when the weather’s great and you want to show out-of-town guests a different side of Buffalo.

Ameci Pizza Kitchen – Menu with Prices – 728 S Glendale Ave, Glendale

The pizzas here are very tasty – I’ve had the meat lovers (it’s really meat heavy, so you better really be a lover of meat), the Hot Cheetos (it’s just a bag of Hot Cheetos over the top of the cheese pizza), the Alfredo, as well as the Ranch Chicken (both are just ok, the flavor and richness of the Alfredo and the Ranch do not shine through, which is a bit disappointing, but the flavor of the pizza itself is good). I also tried the thick crust, which is about $1 extra, and it was good – still thin compared to other places, but this being a NY style pizza place, it was good. I also enjoyed watching an episode of Friends when I was here – they put on Netflix movies and shows. I would also appreciate if their chefs put on gloves, as I could watch them making the pizzas, and it makes me uncomfortable to see hands on the food, but good thing the pizzas are cooked and heated through! Overall, would come here again if I am craving pizza and nearby; not my favorite, but good.

Blaze Pizza – Menu with Prices – 2348 Citadel Way #101, Melbourne

Blaze Pizza is much like the Chipotle of Pizza. Here you can customize your pizza to your liking. Kudos for having an option for vegans as they offer both vegan cheese & vegan chorizo. There are several signature pizzas w/ popular favorites along w/ calories listed. Probably the most popular choice here is the customizable Build Your Own Pizza. Choose your crust from original, thick crust, or cauliflower crust for gluten-free folks. Several sauces to choose from such as classic red sauce or spicy red sauce. Cheeses including vegan cheese options. etc. I opted for customizable Build Your Own Pizza w/ original crust, spicy red sauce, vegan cheese, vegan chorizo, & unlimited veggies. The toppings here hit the spot as lots of selections for those plant strong folks as the veggie toppings were plentiful, tasty, & nourishing. The pizzas are fast fired in 180 seconds in the oven. Fast, friendly service, & affordable. Found this to be one of the best vegan pizzas I’ve had in a long time for the fresh veggie toppings alone. Felt the crust could have been a bit firmer. The atmosphere pretty similar to dining at a Chipotle yet the vegan pizza hit the spot. I was able to finish the whole pie as was satisfying w/ just the right amount of food. Look forward to subsequent visits here.

Wall Street Slice – Menu with Prices – 753 Wall St, Winnipeg

Let’s put it this way , any other pizza owner in town better get a ladder and even then you can’t touch this Level . To say this amazing array of amazing “food” I say that rather than say pizza , because to generalize each ingredients individual quality level , which is none less than the best would be a sad over site . With the first bite you can tell you made the right choice for pizza , and super friendly people who still believe customer service is paramount. This was my second time . I’ve had the pepperoni, the “White out” “Sierra Bravo” and the “T-bird” and have now an internal argument for next time trying to decide which one to get . Because you only have so much room in youre stomach , and once you’ve tried most of them you wish you had room for them all! Fair price . Quick efficient staff , and you can have a beer with your slice . A whole pie is around the 30$ mark , but worth every penny. No one who loves pizza shall be disappointed . This is Dan and I give this place a 10 out of 10.

Palace Pizza – Menu with Prices – 114 S Kentucky Ave, Lakeland

Saw Palace Pizza on a segment on the news. I bookmarked it and knew one day we would try it when in Lakeland. On this Saturday afternoon we decided to try it out. It’s located in downtown Lakeland. There is no private parking lot for this establishment. We parked on the street and simply walked up the block. When we walked in and up to the counter we saw a large assortment of pizza pies. Many different types of delicious looking pizzas, garlic knots, bruschetta and cannolis. My eyes didn’t know where to look first. We were immediately greeted by a very nice young man who was extremely patient while I took it all in! I wanted to try one of everything. My husband and I decided to sample: *Square pizza – Absolutely delicious, would order again. Best pizza so far since moving to this coast. *Chicken bacon ranch – Was very dry and definitely didn’t taste any ranch. Would not order again. *Garlic Knots – Definitely not the garlic knots I’ve eaten in NY Pizzerias during my lifetime. They were more like a greasy roll with lots of butter. Would not order again. Also, didn’t have that garlic taste I was looking for. *Bruschetta – Was delicious and would order again. When you order and pay you are given a number to be placed on your table. When your order is ready, it is brought to your table. I would definitely go back for their square pizza and because they offer many different pizzas of which I would love to try. In addition to all the different pizzas, they offer an extensive menu with salads, sandwiches, Stromboli’s, flatbreads, pastas and many Italian specialty dishes to choose from. Being Italian from New York with the best pizza, I’m a tough critic when it comes to good pizza. I found everyone at this restaurant to be friendly, welcoming and courteous. The restaurant also has a very lovely outdoor eating area.

Lucos Pizza – Menu with Prices – 2925 W Republic Rd #100, Springfield

So far I can only speak to the vegan pizza so far, but wanted to share my experience. I went in with high hopes based on other reviews. I ordered the vegan supremo pizza. The hand tossed crust was very good, soft and not too thick. The sauce didn’t have much of a flavor. The vegan cheese that has been highly praised in other reviews was practically nonexistent. The vegan pepperoni were also sadly without much flavor. The veggies are the star. Lots of big, fresh veggie pieces that are not overcooked. The vegan ranch is delicious, with a nice garlic hint to it. Overall the pizza was good, but I probably wouldn’t order it again. I would definitely try a pizza with real cheese and see how that measures up.

Crust Almighty Pizzeria – Menu with Prices – 46 S 27th St, Pittsburgh

Cash only. There’s a lot of mediocre pizza in Pittsburgh. This place is well above the average. Best part is the sauce, not overly sweet like so many places in town, here you actually taste tomato and seasoning. Really, you can tell that quality ingredients are used across the board. Thin crust, appropriate amount of cheese, and not a grease bomb. This is the kind of pizza where you can “accidentally” slam 4 slices and not suffer intestinal mutiny for the rest of the day. Slice I got off the top was perfectly crisp as well, though the to-go pie may have been pulled a bit early as it was slightly doughy and had some serious flop that wasn’t present in the slice. Still, the pie I brought folks disappeared quickly with no complaints heard. I’ve visited twice, and both times I’ve had to figure out what on the menu could actually be ordered at the time (you can make small pies but not large pies?). Also, for a place that advertises selling pizza by the slice, they don’t seem to have slices up very often. These are things that I can chalk up to being brand new though, simple fact is this is the best NY style pie you’re going to find in the south side, and one of the better I’ve had around Pittsburgh.

New York pizza kitchen – Menu with Prices – 2-50 W South St, Orlando

Deserves ZERO stars! Literally the most horrible pizza place ever. Delivery took an hour for horrible, days old looking pizza, dry mozzarella sticks that came with ranch dressing, and soggy onion rings. Aside from everything being disgusting, the pizza order was wrong, they brought the wrong sodas as well and who serves mozzarella sticks with ranch dressing??? The driver didn’t even deliver to our room and asked us to walk to the lobby to pick up. He also made sure to tell us that tips weren’t included in the price which I’m pretty sure there WAS a delivery fee. Bottom line…Don’t trust a random flyer under your hotel door, esp if it has no location address AND read reviews before ordering anywhere!!

Papa Keno’s Pizzeria – Menu with Prices – 2330 University Ave, Des Moines

Well always down for new pizza place in town.. And let’s just say I kept seeing this XL pizza in my dreams or maybe it was reality! First I saw someone in my Apt holding this giant box the size of a card table! Next while walking on the sidewalk next to Papa Keno’s I saw a women putting the toppings on one of these XL pizzas through the window! I kept asking friends if they had tried Papa Keno’s and I kept getting mixed reviews! So I just kept on keeping on, getting pizza from my normal spots! But this XL pizza never left my mind! Then I heard through the grapevine that they had VEGAN Cheese, VEGAN CRUST, and had to do it. I had to order one of those card table size pizzas! So i did it! Before I tell you how it was.. I must say the last 4 meals I have had, have been Papa Keeno’s pizza, also had small get together where I fed everyone that same XL papa keno’s pizza! This thing is absolutely huge, the box even says.. Every piece the size of your face! And it ain’t no lie.. This is easily the biggest pizza I have ever seen! And guess what… It’s really good! The vegan cheese was melted to perfection, they did not skimp on toppings, the crust is crunchy and flakey awesomeness and it tasted great even 3 days later! The deliver driver was cool and even offered to get the doors for me so I could get the pizza box through it! Now mind you this is easily the most expensive pizza I have ever come across in my life.. But multiple meals for multiple people and a fed a small party! I say it was worth every penny!

Pizza My Cart – Menu with Prices – 99 W Broadway, Eugene

Do you want to know how good this pizza is? DO YOU?! So I can’t eat pizza because my insides turn into a fist when I look at bread, I still come here for pizza. I know there are some spots out here that have that gluten free sewer disk they melt cheese on and call pizza. NO. I can eat a full pie of that gluten free stuff and still be thinking about my main slice. They ain’t no side slice, the slice of pizza you hope your friends don’t see you with, the slice that hasn’t met your parents yet. Nonono, this is main material. They call you over for your order and you will be down on one knee making your girlfriend feel awkward. The pepperoni is the right kind of greasy, the Italian stallion making you think thoughts about where you are going in life, the shesochorizo smacking you in the face with that spicy flavor. Stop eating those pretenders, and come out for a slice of the contender.

Arizmendi Bakery – Menu with Prices – 3265 Lakeshore Ave, Oakland

Every time I come to Ariz I love it even more! Last night was the first time I had one of the dinner pizzas–I’ve only ever had their breakfast pizza that they serve for a limited amount of time on the weekends. The staff is always so friendly, and they really know how to run a business! If you are on Lakeshore during the evening and see a bunch of pizza boxes most likely they are from Arizmendi! The pizzas change daily I believe, last night’s pizza was Kale, Roasted Garlic, White Beans, Lime Chili Oil, Mozzarella, and Parmesan…HOLY GOODNESS!! Pricing is attached in one of my photos–$23 for a whole pizza and you can buy by slice or purchase a half pizza. You can also buy them ready to eat, or bake to finish at home. If it’s a nice night, I definitely recommend taking a whole pizza to the lake which is very close. Eat amazing pizza and enjoy the amazing Lake Merritt!!

Crust Pizzeria – Menu with Prices – 2071 Clove Rd, Staten Island

A good pizzeria has three key elements to be successful in my opinion, good atmosphere, great staff and excellent food. “Crust Pizzeria” meets the minimum in all categories. I spot in for lunch and parking is difficult. The lot is always packed. Inside the restaurant was busy, so I know this was the place to be. The interior was nice, they definitely had great music playing. However they had bricks on the floor holding boxes and soda. I guess storage space is a issue at the restaurant. The counter looks amazing. The black curved counter with fresh pizza displays true marketing on the owners part. The staff was friendly, mostly with each other and customers they know. New customers equal more business, but I’m sure it’s not that easy to get employees to see that. The cashier didn’t acknowledge me so the gentleman in the back making pizzas took my order. I got two slices and he welcomed me to a seat. The pizza was fresh so it didn’t take long to heat up. I got up to pay and he told me eat first pay later. I loved that I was trusted enough to pay after. The Bacon Chicken Ranch slice was good. I liked that they put extra ranch sauce on it. But I felt more Cheese was needed to make it work. The same with the buffalo Slice. Flavor is not a issue, but it feels like It could have benefited with more cheese. I still would come back. I’m definitely interested in trying a calzone. Next time though, if I want a slice, I will ask for more cheese.
