UPN has always been spot on when I go, the only problem is it is too far across town for me to go as often as I'd like. Luckily, looks like I am maybe a month away from having Co. pizzas down the block from me. Hope it rocks too.

And if you wanted toppings, you should have gone to Luzzo's! They have some nice, out of the ordinary ones.

Due to the nature of the oven at UPN, you'll occasionally get some blisters of overcharring. It happens. Eh.

But the crust shouldn't be soggy. Not like some other places where they oversauce and the crust is too thin. If so, then something is wrong.

As for the toppings issue, I guess you should have looked at the menu online, huh?

hey moesizlacks, plenty of us do get it. We've been to all the great places. A lot of us think UPN isn't up there with them. Quit comparing people not liking UPN to the people that prefer McDonalds. It reeks of food snobbishness.

hey! everyone is entitled to their opinion, but i really think that most people don't "get" it. and i would never apologize for a superior pizza. it's ok if you grew up enjoying pizza hut. some people go to mcdonalds for hamburgers.

I'd love to see A.M. cook a Mama Celeste frozen pizza in his oven. Maybe Ed should bring one to the event.

@ayyappan I agree about it losing something. And I've never found those East Side pies to be as good as the Coney Island original anyway. I can't imagine AM letting a Totonno's pie be cooked in his oven. And that wouldn't be authentic anyway. We'll see.

Ciao,
