Bravos is very overrated
I'll agree it's overrated...but compared to what?
Which places in ny are much better? I had their vodka sauce thin crust slice and it was Definitely good. There regulars were only considered a bit better IMO because their sauce tasted more like tomatoes than most places. That's why, until I find better, I'll say they're good for ny

I think I had it when I was younger but like the original post up thread, I really haven't found anywhere that comes close to the one in Rome and in Denver. My next best is home made.
I haven't tried anywhere in la that I thought was good.

Bravos was lost to me when I saw them representing a Sicilian slice as "chicago style." I'm from chicago--I'm chicago style.

Calling Bravo overrated if you haven't had the Grandma Sicilian is like calling First Class overrated while sitting on Spirit.

Negative in taste and attitude. Pizza plus is the best by far in all areas including attitude.

What about pizza da solo? Did they close down?
Pizza da solo is absolutely awesome. Better than bother Bravos and raffealo in the city.
And once you go there try there tuna panini which is awesome as well.

Can someone explain or show me how to appreciate thin crust pizza?

Why is thin-crust more "authentic" than thick?

Don't you think the rich tomato and cheese flavors need something slightly more substantial to hold them than a puny thin crust?

The first time I had a thin crust pizza was in at Bleecker Bakery off Yaffo by Lunz st. in Yerushalayim (actually across the street from Big Apple Pizza which makes a poor imatation of Amnon's or Mendelsohn's pizza, which is why it's frequented by all the Americans). It was a beautiful creation but I was so put off by the cracker thin, almost flaky-dough-like crust that I can hardly recall the flavor...

Is that what you thin-crusters are glorifying?
