Favorite Pizza in SoWal

[Smiling JOe]

I enjoyed it so much yesterday, that I went back for seconds today.

Beer - enough choices to find one to suit your needs -- love the Fire Rock Ale
Ceviche -- great, (but be warned -- it's spicy)
Blue Crab Bruchetta -- fabulous! (be warned -- it has garlic, which I love)

pizzas-- very thin crust, which is my favorite type -- doesn't leave me feeling like a stuffed pig when I eat a whole pizza.
Laughing Cow Pizza -- somewhere near the top of my list of their pizza
Margarita Pizza -- good
Pepperoni Pizza -- good
Pickle Factory Special -- straight from Thailand -- maybe wins the award for most unique toppings, but with great flavor.
Poor Man's Lobster Pizza -- my personal favorite!
Red, White and Blue Pizza -- I don't really like blue cheese for the typical stinky cheese reasons, but this pizza wins me over. The blue cheese is fairly mellow after being cooked.

That's a quick review from someone who has eaten more than his share of pizza.

The food was great, the beer was cold, the a/c is now working fine, Jeff1 and Jeff2 are cool, Jeff1's dad is cool and has fun toys, one of the pizza guys also plays guitar and sings, the atmosphere is cozy and fun, I hope they stay busy enough to make a bunch of money and stay in business, but I also hope that it stays quaint, fun, and unknown to most people -- maybe that name will help.

Sounds delicious, can't wait to try this one.

Pizza in SOWAL and then there is The Pickle Factory

This is my first post. Until now, I have been accused of being a "SOWAL Stalker." I will try and list my pizza experiences in alphabetical order.

Amore - was much better with the original owner. Too much cheese.

Anglelina's - 23rd St location is far better especially with a coupon.

Bruno's - was one of the first....the cinnimon bites are good. Go on their anniversary when it is about $5 bucks. Or order during off season when it BOGO (but order early for delivery because they cut off delivery when they get too many. And that can be within 5 minutes of talking to them the first time.)

CBs at Silversands - ok pizza but I will not go back. Was in there a few weeks ago and my friend and I only wanted a slice of pizza. It was dead. We asked about a fresh pizza in the slice area and was told that it would be minutes. We waited and waited, then finally ordered a pizza. Within 10 seconds a fresh one came out and we stopped out order. We then asked to each get a slice and the waitress (who has waited on us many times and has been there forever told us we couldn't have the hot pizza we must take the cold.) Would any of you go back?

Enzo's - Can't make the pizza thin and the worse Lasagne I have had in my life and the waiter didn't even ask if I liked my food with most of it on my plate. When I asked him about the wine selection he told me he didn't have a clue. At least he was honest.

FCs in Miramar Beach - Similar experience as the prosciutto listed in another comment earlier but ours was this salami. Large deli sheets covering a limp pizza.

Hot and Cold - Haven't been, can't get past the name. Not better than SugarCakes(?)

Mc T's in BMB - Not a fair judgement, went a couple of weeks ago the day the cook quit. The waitress would not ask the current cook if he would make it thin. "You will get what he makes" was the quote.

Pizza By the Sea - Was better when if first opened. The buffet kept different and hot pizza out.

Pizza Bar - We thought we had found it. Thin, fresh, tasty ingredients but not consistent. GIve it a break they are new. And then there is -----

The Pickle Factory - consistent, the freshest of ingredients, and the perfect crust. We have been there 3 times since Jul 3 and they just get better. Have tried five different kinds and all are wonderful. Went with neighbors last week and they agreed with the ranking or thoughts of the pizza places n SOWAL.

If you have't tried the Pickle Factory and you prefer thin pizza or even if you don't it's a must

I only have one comment.

You can never have too much cheese.

I didn't realize SoWal had so many Pizza choices. I need a map! I'm not exactly sure where all of these are located. I've got a few favorites like the Pizza Bar and Pizza by the Sea, but would like to try out a couple on your list. Is the Pickle Factory near Fire Restaurant just north of 30A and the four way stop in Grayton Beach area?

 

[liquorqueen]

Yes...it's where the old Thai restaurant was outside of Grayton, kinda across from Fire. Very good, very thin pizza.

 

[Matt J]

DL, they actually left quite a few out.

Fat Daddy's, Spicy Noodle, and Onano (not sure if they do pizza).

Hot and Cold is okay for something quick, it has improved since it was Sugar Pies.

Maybe...but, this has to be the most unimaginative name for a place to eat...I admit I have not been there--just can't get past the name

Just pretend the name is "Oh My Goodness, This is the Best Pizza Ever" and you'll be fine. I hate everything and I just LOVE this pizza. I've been there religiously every week since they opened.

Hot & Cold and Bruno's are our favorite pizza in Sowal.
