I disagree…. Master Italian Pizzeria in strongsville is the best pizza in Cleveland! They have the perfect blend of ingredients and flavors from their homemade dough to their sauce. Once you try their pizza you will definately agree that master Italian pizzeria is one of the best pizza places in all of Cleveland if not anywhere!
Well, we’ll have to give Master Italian Pizzaria a try sometime…=)
I have to disagree too with Mama Santa’s… went there once and the pizza was awful. Maybe I had expected more since they always seems to be the top joint. The crust had a “freezer” taste to it, and the toppings were too few on top of the pie. The atmosphere in the joint was fun, but that was about it.
I haven’t tried this one yet, but I hear Angela-Mia’s in Collinwood is great. Been around for decades, and will be one I wish to visit soon.
Angela Mia is in East Cleveland and yes they make some of the best pizza I have ever had in Cleveland. They make their pizza like a pie with the toppings underneath the cheese. I think I will have one this weekend. Yum…
