How often do you eat the pizza your region is known for?

I''m from Detroit, I'd say 75% of the time we get or are served pizza it's Detroit style. Basically every restaurant here with pizza has Detroit style, even fancy hipster foodie places. It seems like every kid's party, work party, super bowl or any celebration with pizza will have at least some Detroit pies, if not all that style.
But I lived in Chicago for a long time and literally never ate Chicago styles, whether deep dish or tavern, except when people came in from out of town and insisted on getting it. What about where you are?
kjb76@reddit
Pretty much exclusively because that’s what’s always around. But sometimes we will have Neapolitan style brick oven pizza, or Roman pizza, or tavern style pizza because those are available too just not right in your neighborhood. We don’t often have Detroit or Chicago style because they’re not as readily available.
Weird_Squirrel_8382@reddit
It hurts my heart that LaRosa's pizza isn't good anymore, but I make it at home every so often. I guess you could call it Cincinnati style if you wanted: thin crust, thin layer of tomato sauce, pepperoni under and over the cheese. I add bacon and green peppers.
eltigretom@reddit
Do you guys do that pizza they do in Dayton? I lived in Dayton for a few years, and when I asked for good pizza everyone pointed me to Marions or Cassanos. It in fact was not good pizza haha
Weird_Squirrel_8382@reddit
It looks pretty similar, but I haven't tasted cassanos in forever

I’m in Houston area, and it seems NY style is most popular here.
RoeMajesta@reddit
other than detroit, deep dish, detroit, sicilian, new york, that white/ tomato pie thing, and clam pie, idt regional pizzas are that much a thing elsewhere
feralflannelfeline@reddit
There’s also Philly tomato pie and New Haven apizza. I live in Philly and tomato pie isn’t exactly the most popular pizza though. Most of the places around me do New York style slices and craft/artisan pizza.
birdie_buttons@reddit
St. Louis, New Haven, Chicago tavern style, Altoona (ew). Buffalo, NY has a very distinctive style of pizza too. I'm sure I'm missing a bunch
Tankieforever@reddit
Ohio Valley style is a popular abomination found in Pittsburgh, Wheeling, and Youngstown. Involves baking the crust with sauce on it, and heaping cold cheese and toppings in it after it comes out of the oven.
mickeltee@reddit
I live in Youngstown and I’ve never once in my life seen an Ohio Valley pizza. We have our own style, Brier Hill. Youngstown has deeply Italian roots and they would never let an abomination like Ohio Valley pizza take off here.
scootertrash@reddit
The originators of Ohio Valley pizza were of Italian descent from Steubenville They obviously didn’t consider it an abomination. And yeah, we like it.

shelwood46@reddit
New Jersey pizza is not the same as New York, it's often sold by the pie (and also we call it "pie") but also by the slice, and it is similar but not quite the same. There's a place in NJ that does mustard pies. Sometimes tomato pies will have the sauce on top (they are gross, don't get those).
Sevuhrow@reddit
Tomato pie is excellent
JoshHuff1332@reddit
Tomato pie is it's own thing, but outside of that, I feel like the differences are more down to variations at specific pizza places, not any general regional differences that would constitute New Jersey and New York pizza being different
igottathinkofaname@reddit
“California pizza” is a thing, but it mostly means non-traditional veggie toppings.
Background_Humor5838@reddit
California pizza is strange. It's always a fluffy kind of thick crust, with not enough sauce and cut into a million skinny pieces for some reason
igottathinkofaname@reddit
I think it’s supposed to be thinner crispier crust, like a Neapolitan style crust.
Cache-Cow@reddit

Oklahoma style pizza is called Chicken Fried Steak.

I grew up in Chicago and it is true, pizza choices are slim.

In the Quad Cities (Iowa/Illinois) it’s mostly Quad City style pizza of course lol. Lots of Chicago tavern too because that’s an hour away. Idk if there’s any Detroit style places around there.
One of the best pizza places in Denver is Detroit style - Blue Pan. So good. There’s also Colorado style but not very popular imo. There’s a big variety of different pizza styles out here. Mostly mediocre, a few really good spots. Everyone from the east coast says it all sucks.
bladel@reddit
I’m from the QC originally and i always make a point of having Quad City pizza when I’m back. I love the spicy sausage and the cheese. Growing up as a kid, this was just what we knew as “pizza” and my cousins and I would always fight for the edges.
oldtinman15@reddit
Still in the quad cities. Grew up on Franks and Harris. Still get a quad city style every couple of weeks. Love the crust. It's the only style pizza I'll save leftovers of and actually eat
No-Type119@reddit
I live in Michigan, and I’d never even heard of Detroit style pizza until about a decade ago. ( For the uninitiated, it’s a deep dish pizza, originally baked in old high-rim steel tool trays from assembly lines, with the sauce added last instead of first. )
Awdayshus@reddit
They opened a Red's Savoy Pizza in Fargo. When I tried it, I was surprised to learn that they have Sota-Style pizza. Apparently, Minnesota style pizza is a fairly standard thin crust pub style pizza, cut into squares.
I've lived in Minnesota for all my life, and I had no idea there was Minnesota style until I tried a place that opened across the river in North Dakota. Red's Savoy is a Minnesota based chain, by the way.
Effective_Pear4760@reddit
Haven't in about 40 years. It kinda sucks. I would say we aren't KNOWN for a pizza style, but we have one. Its just not that well known, or good. Besides the size there isnt all that different about it.

Grew up in Connecticut, which has the best pizza in the country. Unfortunately, i haven't been to New Haven in forever and didn't get a chance to hit up Modern Apizza (better than Pepe's, fight me) when I was that way this past week. I moved 800 miles away and I miss a good New Haven style pizza
OriginalSilentTuba@reddit
I will agree that Modern is better than Pepe’s. I will not agree that it is the best. It’s very good, and I’ve always enjoyed it, but give me a good NY/NJ pie any day. New Haven is definitely legit though.
IWillBaconSlapYou@reddit
The pizza Seattle is known for is known because it's bad 😂 We don't often get pizza. The kids like it, so we buy the four packs of frozen cheese pizzas from Costco and serve it with salad once a week or so. If I do get pizza, it's Costco food court pizza because that stuff is actually pretty alright.
OriginalSilentTuba@reddit
I’m in NJ, I eat NJ pizza at least once a week. There’s a pizza spot a block from my house that Portnoy (deservingly) gave an 8.6. He’s reviewed at least 3 pizza spots in my town. There’s at least 5 more I can think of off the top of my head. It is not a very big town, either. Pizza is a way of life here.

When I lived in Massachusetts I ate south shore bar pizza all the time. Now that I live in Utah it's a struggle to find good pizza of any kind.
Vyckerz@reddit
I was born in Massachusetts and have always preferred Boston style pizza. Thinner crust, plenty of cheese and sauce, like what you could get at Haymarket Pizza back in the day or the North End at Reginas. Papa Ginos back in the day was like this, though it's varied a bit since then.
However, outside of Boston it's not always easy to find that exact style. Alot of Italian style pizza places have slightly thicker fluffier crusts, which I am ok with. But there are also alot of Greek style "Hous of..." Pizza places and Sub shops that server Greek style "soda crust" type pizzas, which is not my favorite.
Eat_Drink_Adventure@reddit
Massachusetts is known for the bar pie more than anything else

I live in Michigan and never eat Chicago style because I think it’s terrible and I rarely eat Detroit style although I think it’s good. I just prefer Neapolitan style.

We generally don’t get the Greek style that’s common here but every couple of months we’ll have New Haven style from one of the small family chains that’s expanded into our area (Pepe’s or Sally’s).
FubarSnafuTarfu@reddit
I’d say 50/50 for whether you get Columbus style at any given place here
CBus660R@reddit
It's funny how people in Ohio call it Columbus style because of Donato's when it's actually tavern style and it didn't originate in Columbus.
FrankNumber37@reddit
Columbus style looks similar to tavern, but uses different sauce, cheese and crust. The tavern has a crisp or crunchy crust and is made with mozzarella. The Columbus has a softer yeasty (while still rigid) crust, provolone (or blend) cheese, edge to edge toppings, and a sweeter sauce. Interestingly enough, while Donato's current pizza is much closer to a tavern style, their original was very much a Columbus (locals can find the exact version at Grandad's) They modified the crust and sauce during the McDonald's era and kept it post split.
CBus660R@reddit
I didn't realize there was that much nuance to it lol I moved to Columbus from Cleveland in 1998 and had never seen that style (tavern or Cbus style) before. Donatos was definitely better back then.
FubarSnafuTarfu@reddit
TIL. Tbh I moved here from the southeast and hadn’t encountered it before.
Papa-Cinq@reddit
I haven’t had a pizza in maybe over a year. This makes me want to make one soon. I like making my own because I put enough sauce on the pie so that it doesn’t all burn off in the oven and result in being just cheesy bread. That’s what it ends up being too often when I purchase it from somewhere.
LunaGloria@reddit
My husband and I never eat California-style pizza. We get about 80% NY and 20% Chicago.

Don’t have one, (speaking about MA) but New York is close enough that good pizza is everywhere and you can get a New York style pizza if you want a regional pizza.

The closest thing to a regional pizza in Colorado is Beau Jos which only exists in a few places and is just ok. I have had it a couple times in my life.
Federal-Membership-1@reddit
My region, close to Philly, doesn't really have a distinct style IMO. There's the Trenton/Boardwalk pie, the generic mall/strip mall pie, Sicilian/square pie, Neapolitan pie in bougie areas. Most of our pizza is homemade. It's thin crust, cheese-then-sauce.

mozzerellasticks1@reddit
St. Louis Style pizza has provolone cheese. If you've ever been to an Imo's, it's St. Louis style. Highly recommend it if you've never tried it and like thin crust pizza and provolone cheese!
Mental-Paramedic9790@reddit
If I’ve been to an Imo’s, it was years ago. Unfortunately, it’s just me, so I usually have to go to Pizza Hut to get their personal pan pizza. I wish some of these other places would start having that size pizza as well. I’d love to try out some others. 🍕
Excellent-Pitch-7579@reddit
STL style pizzas have a very thin crust so if you get a small one you might be able to eat the whole thing or close to it.
mozzerellasticks1@reddit
Imo's does have some 10 inch pizza's! I think at lunch they also offer specials with an 8 inch pizza. I used to get them for lunch sometimes at my old job since it was nearby. Depending on the grocery stores near you, they make also have frozen Imo's pizza. I know the Schnucks in my area carry them but I definitely don't recommend the frozen sausage pizza, it's really poor quality sausage and nasty. But the pepperoni, bacon, deluxe, or cheese ones are good!
Mental-Paramedic9790@reddit
I’ll Check into imo’s then and see what kind of specials they have.
Prinessbeca@reddit
Provel, not provolone. Aren't those two different things?

Saltpork545@reddit
I don't eat a ton of pizza and eat a variant that most people here don't but I would have St Louis style a couple of times a year, which is normally all of my pizza consumption.
I will occasionally have a piece of commodity pizza, the 4x6 rectangle pizza from school but that like 1-3 times a year. I just don't eat a ton of pizza.

Can you explain how it's different from a Sicilian? I lived in Michigan unfortunately and I never really had a decent example. Now that I'm back in Jersey though, I'm curious where you are getting Detroit style Pizza here
Individual_Success46@reddit
Honestly the real difference is that Detroit is smaller, so there’s no ‘middle’ pieces and every piece has a crust. That and maybe the dough is different? I’ve never had Detroit style in Michigan so maybe I’m off base.
In Nj, Buckey’s in Chatham is amazing.

I don't know if we originated it, but central California has a lot of places that specialize in "Tandoori Pizza" which is just regular round pizza with a lot of usual Indian toppings and sauces, like Saag Paneer or Butter Chicken. If you ask someone their favorite pizza place, it might be a Tandoori pizza place, and I like many of the shops near me that have it.
Upstairs-Storm1006@reddit (OP)
So that actually sounds delicious. How different is the pizza crust from Indian Naan bread? And are there other traditional pizza ingredients like tomato sauce or cheese, or is it just Indian food on top of pizza crust?
Bright_Ices@reddit
We have that here in Utah, too. I’m a fan. The main local mini-chain here is called Curry Pizza and they make incredible Indian food and incredible pizza. I’ve had tandoori pizza from them and another place maybe 5 times total, partly because the Curry Pizza joints are all about an hour away from me or more and the place that’s close to me just isn’t as good.

You can often find a "Vermonter" pizza, which usually has some ingredient marinated in maple syrup. I wouldn't say Vermont is known for this type of pizza, though.

I was born in Illinois and lived across the state. Anywhere in the state, Tevern Style was simply known as pizza. It was very rare to have a Deep Dish and most folks I knew didn't care for it.

Bright_Ices@reddit
The thing to know about Chicago is that the actual Chicagoan-style of pizza is thin crust, round, and cut like a grid, into small square pieces. People in Chicago eat that pizza all the time. Chicago deep dish pizza is more of a special meal out now and again, a lot more like going to a sit-down pizza restaurant in nyc. People do it now and again, maybe a few times a year, but it’s not an every-day thing.
Bright_Ices@reddit
When I lived in NYC, I ate nyc style pizza more than weekly. It’s ubiquitous, cheap, and delicious, and you can buy it by the slice so it’s easy to grab a slice for lunch or dinner or a late-night snack away from home. I don’t think we ever ordered pizza to eat at home, but we did sit down at a pizza place to share a whole pies with friends a now and then.
Cheap_Coffee@reddit

PsychologicalBat1425@reddit
Regional pizza in California focuses on nontraditional toppings, locally sourced vegetables, etc. It is on a thin, hand tossed thin crust. Think goat cheese, fresh veggies, crust may be whole wheat, cauliflower, etc.

Only regional food i know of is a California burrito and that's good enough for me. I guess there are California puzzas, there's one in my freezer rn, but the burrito is better

New England (MA) Greek style pizza- just had it on Tuesday.
mythicalwolf00@reddit
Tavern style is basically the default for any 'proper' pizza place that isn't a non-chicago chain. I didn't realize that huge pizzas cut into squares weren't universal for the longest time.
Deep dish, though, rarely. Once every couple of years at most. I like it, but it isn't common to bother having.
Quirky_Commission_56@reddit
Chopped brisket,smoked sausage, and jalapeños.
cmcrich@reddit
Haha. Maine is known for 🦞not 🍕
Tankieforever@reddit
I grew up in Maine and miss the House of Pizza Greek style that is commonly found throughout New England. Your average pizza in Maine is leagues better than the best pizzas in most parts of the country… it’s really only that the only parts of the country with better pizza happen to be very close by, so it doesn’t really stand out. Once you get out of the northeast, finding a pizza half as good as a substandard gas station pizza would be in Maine is like finding a unicorn.

Greek Pizza is my absolute favorite Pizza but I cannot reasonably justify nearly $20 for a single Pizza so basically never.
Tankieforever@reddit
Growing up I had no idea that Greek Pizza was a regional thing and moving away as an adult was a big disappointment in the pizza world. I still eat a lot of pizza… but I would commit war crimes for a good Greek Style right now it’s just not a thing out here.

Milwaukee here. We copy Chicago tavern style which is the most prevalent but we also have Detroit-style, deep dish and NY slice. We rotate among the varieties. Detroit-style is for when you’re so hungover you’re going to die. Deep dish for when you want to be able to drink all night. Tavern-style for when you’re already drunk and can’t drive. NY slice for when you’re drinking and CAN drive. Frozen pizza when you’re doing drugs at home and it’s 3AM.

Except in NJ they mostly call that "Sicilian".
Tankieforever@reddit
Sicilian pizza the dough isn’t as oily as a good Detroit pizza. I don’t tend to care for Sicilian pizza, but I’m down for a good Detroit style. Mostly because I miss a New England Greek style pizza now that I don’t live up that way, and the proofing in an oiled pan done with Detroit style gives the closest thing to that crispy yet airy almost fried texture of a crust. Sicilian pizza just tends to be a thick, square crust, but doesn’t get the same texture.
pparranninno@reddit
Nah Sicilian and Detroit are two distinct styles
BankManager69420@reddit

The last time I went somewhere that did Oregon/parlor pizza, I remembered why I started going to the NY style places.

Bag_of_ambivalence@reddit
I’m in Chicagoland. I enjoy dip dish fairly frequently but your comment on tavern-style really surprises me. If I’m getting thin crust, I can’t even think of a pizzeria in the area that serves any other type of thin crust but tavern style.
JulesInIllinois@reddit
I am in Chicagoland. We eat tavern-style pizza (Rosati's) probably 2x every month. But, we have lots of other choices.
There's a bunch of restaurants offering great Neapolitan pizzas. So, that it common. Deep dish is something we do probably 5x per year only. There's a couple decent NY and Detroit-style places. And, stuffed pizza. I rarely do those. They are too heavy for me.
It suffices to say ... we do a lot of tavern-style pizza. It is common at work lunches, kids' birthday parties, football parties, family gatherings, etc.
SabrinaFaire@reddit
I live in Omaha which is known for shitty pizza and everyone thinks the best place to get pizza is a gas station chain. So I very rarely eat it.

Omaha pizza is hamburger and possibly green pepper. From Big Fred's or La Casa or Mama's or something.
Nobody thinks Casey's is the best. You're confusing Omaha with Iowa.

Godfather’s. It was conceived here, it grew here and its corporate office is still here. And I hate Godfather’s. It’s cardboard and pretty bad. But it’s ours I guess.

I'm pretty sure that the concept of "Maryland style pizza" was made up by the one local restaurant chain that's known for selling it. I haven't had it in probably a decade. I think attempts at a New York style pizza (successful or otherwise) are much more common in Maryland.

Boston has some good pizza, if you know where to look, but does not have a “style”. Some places do Sicilian, others Neapolitan.
worldDev@reddit
I grew up in MA suburbs littered with “greek” pizza places. Doughy yeasty crust with a daily to weekly varying cheese quality matching whatever the owner’s erratic economic situation currently was (I worked at multiple, this was a pattern, not just a singular experience). Nobody seeks that out, it’s a scourge on the country, I’ll eat dominoes before I ever look for it. I live in the Denver area now, and my favorites mostly are imitating NY style. We also have a Chicago style spot close by I like, and a Detroit style spot further away I love but is a special occasion calorie load. One thing I miss is the upstate ny tomato pie, something I’ve only seen visiting extended family in Utica.

Colorado: Several times a year
“Mountain Pie is a unique type of pizza, also known as a Colorado-style pizza, with a thick, hand-rolled edge crust made with honey instead of sugar. The hand-rolled crust prevents the numerous toppings from spilling over its sides.”
That’s straight from the Beau Jo’s website. It’s not deep-dish, as only the crust is thick. People often eat the crust with more honey drizzled on it. It’s good stuff after a long day skiing or hiking.

That is strange that you did not eat Chicago style pizza while in Chicago. I grew up in Chicago. Whenever we has pizza at home it was tavern style almost exclusively. Whenever we ate pizza in a restaurant it was deep dish almost exclusively. Rarely did we eat any other kind. Maybe it was because my family was native to Chicago?

We don't have regional pizza and different pizzas aren't really categorized like that here. I have no clue what a Detroit or Chicago style pizza would be. You might call a pizza deep dish though and I'd know that.
I've lived in 6 different states - none of them were Michigan or Illinois - and none of those states have used those monikers to describe their pizzas. I'm sure there were some mom and pop pizza shops that did, but the major pizza sellers did not.
Tricky-Wishbone9080@reddit
And Chicago has at least 3 styles. Deep dish, double decker (the best), and tavern. Maybe it’s my proximity to Chicago ~6 hours away in Michigan but most people are familiar with Chicago style. Though I’d bet Chicago or New York style are more well known than Detroit style, even though Detroit is a lot closer.
shelwood46@reddit
I had double decker in the 80s in WI, I had no idea that Chicago had laid claim to it. It's good though, I wish it were more widely available.
Live-Medium8357@reddit
I feel like maybe you're just in a pizza area.. I mean regionally speaking, 6 hours is nothing.
I have HEARD of Chicago style pizza because I've been around long enough, but I don't know what it is because it's not an option at most pizza joints. It's just one of those things you hear mentioned in conversations from time to time. I had no idea there was a Detroit style. I've been to New York and eaten pizza there and it seemed like normal pizza so I didn't realize that was a moniker.
Maybe most pizza joints just make New York style pizza.

My personal favorite is Detroit or New York style, but I do appreciate my square-cut thin crust bois every once in a while.

So that's probs why it's not as common as a easy party food
sharrrper@reddit
There isn't a regional pizza here (Oklahoma City) but I would say New York style is the most readily available regional style here. And I'm not counting like Pizza Hut offering New York style or anything, I mean I can think of three places off hand that specialize in New York style in town (one of which has at least three locations) and only one that does Chicago style. If there are any other regional style shops around I don't know them. I certainly don't claim to have exhaustive knowledge of all the pizza shops around though.

I'm claiming the taco pizza as our regional pizza because apparently it was first served in an Iowa chain (Happy Joe's).

Maryland isn't exactly known for a particular pizza style. I would say that, when given the option, the style I go for is deep dish. The problem is that it's hard to find a place that makes deep dish around me (not even a quality thing, no one makes it), so I don't actually eat it that often. But, I don't eat pizza in general that often, so it might be a pretty decent percentage of my pizza intake.
