Well then it's new since I was last there about a two months ago.

And their website is wrong

You could order on seamless and pick up in store to use cc.

They say there's a min but it's a known thing apparently that their machine has been broken for years. It's ironic that they have an atm in the store...not

Rafaellos very good, very genuine Italian pizza.
-100 on Bravo's and -1000 on Renaissance.
I think OP was discussing real pizza as opposed to American pizza in which case pizza time in Flatbush is great (is that place even open still?) and, believe it or not, Kingston pizza in CH has had great American style pizza since the owner of Dagan partnered up with them (ambiance aside)...

Yes and no,
I think there's merit to any pizza as long as it's flavorful. Even American. I think italian is more likely to taste good because they're going for a much more simplistic approach. When I was in Rome, I don't think I saw any pizzas with too many toppings. They spread them out thin and you get individual bites of flavor. In America, they try and drown your taste buds. Most of us assume that the more money they put on top of a pizza, the better it tastes.
I was just giving bravos credit for putting out good flavors. Out of the pizza in ny that I've tasted, it was the best. It's still not my favorite but was a very good slice (the specialty slice). But I still would never call it italian pizza.

From someone who has been to den and Rome my other top 2 would be the 3 cheese personal pie in sea and Jerusalem pizza in oak park but definitely the one in Seattle I still dream about it perfect dough sauce and cheese!

Where's oak park?

Pizza Mayven's pretty decent.

-1, very boring pizza there, Nagilla had a lot better. Especially their stuffed crust pizza.

Easy to dream about that pizza, tops it all.

That's debatable. They have an interesting concept that's somewhat original and their dessert pizzas are good, but I was largely unimpressed with their regular (non-dessert) pizza. Relatively bland and under-seasoned, especially considering they are promoting their variety of flavor combinations.

Took a look at some pics of their pizza. Looks like it might be closer to italian than others I've seen. Looks like they're going for flavors

Concept is excellent. Execution leaves a lot to be desired, IMO. However, their dessert pizzas are really good fresh.

Is it customizable or do they have premade pizzas?

They have predesigned combinations but I think they let you customize as well.

I've had 3 of their pies. They are all equally underwhelming and had no flavor. If I'm paying $13 for a miniscule personal pie, I shouldn't need to douse it in sauce and spices just to experience any flavor. Not a fan.

I also tried out Naomis Pizza on main street in Queens. I heard good things about their pizza (And also heard very high things about their falafel which I thought was alright) so I tried it out last friday.

I got 2 specialty slices and a soda for like 7.25. Very good prices.
My first was their "white slice." It was thin crust (but not crispy) and there was no sauce. They also throw on some spots of ricotta cheese which added to the flavor. It wasnt fresh and that definitely impacted the overall taste but it was still good. not my favorite, but definitely a good slice with some nice flavor.
My second slice was the 'pesto slice.' Not good at all. I think there was cheese but I couldnt tell. There was what I think was pesto spread over the entire thing. There was this weird flavor of cilantro or parsley or something that just ruined it completely. I couldnt get the flavor out of my mouth for a while. Im glad it was my second slice so it didnt ruin the first. Also, it was even worse because it wasnt fresh at all and I had to reheat it by the time i was ready for it.
Overall, Naomi is a bit dirty and they only take cash but that one slice was pretty good for the price. In my area, it probably gets my vote (over bennys, bengis, and labellas)

Pizzamania is very underrated for Queens options. Good pizza, good price, fresh.

I would say go there for dessert. Get the chocolate pizza. It's very good. As for a meal, Benny's across the street is fairly good but a bit overpriced.
