Question: Is there fresh & tasty pizza in Westchester County?

Where can I find fresh & tasty made-to-order pizza in the Mamaroneck/Rye/Larchmont, NY area?

I recently moved to Mamaroneck, and I'd love to find some great fresh made-to-order pizza. Non-thick crust is preferable.

Please do not suggest a pizza place that fits the following description: The (usually cheese) pizza is already cooked when upon entry, the toppings are placed on the pizza when you order, and then the slice is re-heated. The only pizza places I've been to since moving to NY have been of this variety, and they have not been very good.

Wow - a question I can answer.

There are a couple of pizza places on Mamaroneck Ave, across from the movie theater, which I assume are the not-so-good ones you refer to. I agree with you. Those are good only for a late-night, post-movie slice.

Rye is my hometown, and sports Sunrise Pizza, an old favorite and a highly reliable pizza place. My family is fond of the combination broccoli + (fried/battered) eggplant, which I have to admit is pretty good.

Rye also has Piazza Pizza, which is, in my opinion, less good, but may suit your tastes.

Harrison (closer to you than Rye) has Re'Aldo Pizza on Halstead. I haven't had it in years, but my recollection is that it is AWESOME. Terrific calzones, too.

Mangia!

You're right; I was referring to the ones across from the movie theater.
