Some good answers in here and the previous thread. I’ll always shout out Franks Pizza on Harford Rd Belair Rd as the best typical faux Italian delivery/carry out pie in the city. This isn’t a fancy pub pizza, they have the exact same menu as every other faux Italian place. But their pizza is the best. And unlike some places, they are technically in the city.

I live near Frank’s and I am glad I live near Frank’s. Great pizza as well as other stuff.

I live near too and we love Lil’ Niros at my house. We’ve never tried franks. Too bad we just had pizza tonight. Next time we’ll have to try from there.

And they do Detroit style now! I love the Mediterranean pizza. 🤌

I just looked this up and the only one I see is on Belair, is that the one?

Edit: I see in another comment it is. Thanks for the suggestion, I live near.

I used to sell restaurant equipment to them, great group of folks who run the place.

I’ve got to try this out. I generally hate Baltimore pizza, except for tiny gourmet pies with a lot of toppings

Pro tip: they do have the menu of any other faux Italian place, but some of their pasta dishes are better than anything you’ll find in Little Italy. The Mediterrano (pink sauce, crab meat, shrimp, scallops) and Reffugio (pink sauce, chicken, mushrooms) are both absolutely to die for. And, as others have mentioned, an incredible staff. My family has been going for decades and the quality has never dropped

Best pizza in Baltimore and many of their pasta dishes are on point! Love that place.

Yeah no disrespect to OP, but honestly this question is getting old.

Whatever happened to people just searching Google for what the want and including “Reddit” in the query? /s

I'm forever devoted to the Pizza Boli's in Remington because I have celiac and have never once had a cross contamination incident with their gluten free pizza (which is by far the best gf pizza I've had anyway) AND the one time they did screw up my order and sent me a regular pizza, they called me and screamed "don't eat that pizza!" before I had a chance to call them. (Luckily I noticed the crust was thicker and puffier than the gf crust is, and had my phone in my hand to call for confirmation before it rang.) They then immediately sent me a new pizza free of charge without me having to return the old one, so my roommate with the proper digestive system was happy to have a free pizza all of a sudden.

artfullyjaded t1_j3080sj wrote

This is so good to know. I moved to Baltimore a month ago and haven't wanted to do the trial-and-error that it takes to scout out good gluten-free pizza options, so obviously I'm craving pizza at this point. I'll definitely be getting a pizza or six from here.

justhere4bookbinding t1_j30cyjy wrote

If you haven't found it yet, Sweet 27 is a completely gluten free restaurant and bakery. Most of their non-baked goods are Indian fusion, but they also made a decent cheese pizza and a caprisi pizza. It's more expensive than Pizza Boli's tho

What other places have you tried? My partner has celiac and her favorites so far are Angeli's and Verde. Always looking to add to the list of places for us to go together

Verde is by far the best pizza in Baltimore. We’ve been ordering the gluten free pizza for years and think it’s better than their gluten pizza!

Paulie Gee’s for wood fire and NY style. Underground for that deep dish. Hersh’s was amazing too. Pizza Di Joey is great NY style too and the pies are fuckin huge.

JBGB’s in Remington has excellent gourmet pizzas.

JBGB’s is real solid. Love the bacon egg & cheese one. Pretty much a carbonara za. Plus if you are with someone who, for whatever reason, doesn’t want pizza, all their other food and drinks are great.

Went a few weeks ago and it was terrible. A handful of toppings pushed to the middle of the pie, not much cheese or sauce. Such a ripoff.

I can’t believe I haven’t seen Ribaldi’s in Hampden in here yet. It’s the closest to a traditional New York style pizzeria I’ve found.

I saw Vito’s on York Road was mentioned and felt the need to toot Fortunato Brother’s and Pasta Mista’s horn because they are both, in my humblest of opinions superior North Baltimore/Towson options.

drydabland t1_j2zar5f wrote

Italian gardens in Kenilworth is also a good one on the topside of the beltway thats been around awhile. They do good NY style and get buffalo chicken pizza exactly right.

Underground for the win. Second best is Matthew’s then Pauli Gee’s

Infamous_Somewhere_3 t1_j302hy8 wrote

I heard that Pauli Gee’s is the same owner/restaurant as the one in Brooklyn NY. If so I just ate at the Brooklyn one last week and it is delicious wood fired pizza. The Brooklyn one is usually very crowded but worth it.

NeatLeft t1_j302vfu wrote

Not sure about that but the one in Hampden is wood fired also.

I used to be a Zella's acolyte until NYE when I drunkenly stumbled into King's Pizza in Hampden. I was shitfaced but thought it was the best pizza I ever had.

Last night I went in completely sober and ordered the same pie -- large pepperoni. The crust could use some improvement but their sauce is incredible and they are a strong contender for my new favorite spot.

No one outpizzas the Hut. Although Papa John’s is good, too. Domino’s is OK, but not for its price. Little Caesar’s is something a kid might appreciate, but not for somebody with more sophisticated tastes.
