thatskablamo Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Ain’t none of y’all have even mentioned Cecil Whittakers. The pride of SoCo. Back in the day, we got em sent to DeMatt after whatever Greek outing happened to be that night by the dozen. We had a pledge back in 01 who would take an XL, fold it over and eat it like a calzone. Man earned my respect that night. And an XL on college nights or college hours whatever it was cost $3.75. Worth every penny.

HA Pretty sure I got tetanus from one of the machines at Happy Joe's on Watson circa 2005. When in the 314, I try to get Imo's. A few years ago driving in the Hill Country west of Austin I saw a Food Truck with a sign for St. Louis style pizza. So I stopped dude nailed it, I explained that I went to school in St. Louis. This guy very drug dealer like, explained to me that he could supply me with provel should I be so inclined. I was not. I bet that truck didn't last. The Detroit style pizza food truck, Via 313, has lasted and flourished that's like focaccia bread with pizza on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will add Pizzeria da Gloria on the Hill. And I am trying Motor Town Pizza this weekend. I might be in the minority, but also like the double crust pizza at JJ Twigs. But let's be honest, pizza is like sex, when it's good its great and when it's bad it is still really good.

La Pizza is probably my favorite local pizza spot, but there are some solid options out there and I seldom have bad pizza (here comes the IMO’s responses haha). Living out in Chesterfield my regular spot is Faraci’s. I saw Roy mention Peel, great spot too. Pizza-A-Go-Go was our #1 takeout pizza choice in the SLU Glory Days when it was on Grand & Gravois, well before moving to its current location. I haven’t been to the current spot, but am glad it’s still in operation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OkieBilliken Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Amusing - there is a pretty popular Italian restaurant near me in Jacksonville, FL where the owners are all from St. Louis. You can get a pizza very similar to Imo's there, which I will on occasion when I am missing home. Its actually a little less greasy than the original which I appreciate. They also serve TRavs, Mayfair salad and gooey butter cake. When I tell people that this is a cool St. Louis style restaurant, no one cares.
