Dewey's has restaurants in Webster Groves, Kirkwood, and University City, and they're all top-notch!

Ami's in Rock Hill is terrific, whether their New York or St. Louis style. Farottos is also tops. Dewey's and Raccanelli's are both just updated versions of Domino's...UGHHHHHH.

Pi Pizzeria in Kirkwood is on top. Healthy choices, freshest ingredients and green restaurant . Thin crust or thick is wonderful, family friendly, milkshakes to die for and relaxing atmosphere.

If you can't go to PI they can come to you. Watch for the Pi truck. Check their website and you can see if their truck is near you for lunch. $12.00 for a deep dish that you cannot eat by yourself.

Twin Oak Wood-Fired on Strassner @ Hanley in Brentwood is awsome if you want something a little different. Their buffalo bleu chicken pizza is fabulous!

La Pizza is the best- and you can buy by the slice.

The best pizza in St. Louis will be found at Pizza-a-Go-Go. However, the Go-Go is in the City (south City, off Jamieson) so outside the requested parameters. I would therefore go with Racanelli's. I'm a sucker for New York style pizza, and this is the only real NY pizza to be found in St. Louis.

I'll have to try this place. I love NY style, too!

What about the Lobster BLT pizza at Bocci Bar!? That is the BEST pizza in Clayton.

Katie's has amazing pizza with topping I would never have thought of! Dewey's has the best veggie pizza - in fact it's the only veggie pizza I like!
Billy

Seconded - Katie's is particularly awesome!

For many of those of us that didn't grow up in StL, Imo's just doesn't cut it. Pi is by far and away my choice (and my sister's choice) for the absolute best pizza. So close to Chicago pizza, but not from Chicago. Go to any Pi (including the truck) - they're all great!!!

Twin Oaks on Hanley just south of I-40/64 has the best pizza in town. Unique combinations cooked in the big oak-fired oven are unique and delicious.

My vote for Mid County goes to Pointer's! Speedy delivery, friendly service, and delicious pizza!

I guess it is time to make the wonderful secret of Katie's in Clayton public info. They have amazingly creative and tasty pizza!

I've done a lot of eating around for <a href="http://barrospizza.com/locations">pizza in Glendale</a>, and I agree some of the best in the area is represented here. I like to stay neutral though, so I don't pick a favorite.
