With all the food threads going around I thought i would ask where people think the best pizza in the state of Iowa is?

I love me some Old Chicago double deckeroni, but I think I might have to vote for Zoey's in Marion.

Should be multiple categories.

Best chain
Best sit down restaurant
Best delivery
etc.

For sitdown pizza, Pasquale's in Humboldt handsdown. One of the area's best kept secret pizza place. However, I had Salvatore's in Muscatine last week and that is a close second. Third is probably Pagliais (spelling?) pizza in Johnston.

For drunk/messy pizza Jeff's in Ames is #1.

For chain, Old Chicago

Best delivery, Pizza Pit in Ames

The thick crust from Wig & Pen in Ankeny/IC is pretty darn good.

Zoey's in Marion for sure

I'd take Cedar Rapids' Tomasos (Detroit Style) over Zoeys any day of the week. My vote is for Tomasos as my favorite from anywhere, including Italy (I know this is a bold statement). We just went this past spring to Italy and while pasta and wine was the best in the world there, I truly feel like America has taken Italian pizza and perfected it.

Agreed, I have no clear-cut favorite but you've got to be joking about Old Chicago. Will it fill me up? Yes. Should it ever be mentioned as anywhere near the "best in the state"? Heck no.
That one pizza of theirs i really like though, the double layers of pepperoni one i think is quite good, but my vote goes to zoeys.
