Imo's Pizza in St. Louis

It is glue on cardboard. I have intensely disliked this pizza since the first time I tried it back in '91. You can actually get good NY style pizza in St Louis. It's not on every street corner, but it's there. - Racanelli's, Vito's, Pizza-A-Go-Go to name a couple.

Conventional pizza cheese is called mozzarella, but in actuality it's a type of whey cheese. Provel is a derivation of Elmer's Glue-All.

Imo's is ok if you really need a St. Louis style pizza fix, but the best is Joe Bacardi's in Eureka, Mo. It's the best there is.

Imo's Pizza in St. Louis

WAIT ONE MINUTE!!!!!
I have to come to Imo's defense. As a native St. Louisian, I have had the pleasure of being raised on imo's pizza and wouldn't have it any other way. I am a big fan of the simplicity that the pizza offers. The soft "gooey"cheese (which is a nice change from mozzarella), the slightly sweet tomato paste based sauce, and the ultra thin cracker like crust topped with whatever you like. I do agree that this style of pizza may not be the typical "NY style" pizza or any other pizza that is common. If you are looking for that kind of pizza, go for it, but if if you want the cheezy soft, paper thin, tomato goodness it brings, you really need to give it a try. The best pizza EVER!

Imo's Pizza in St. Louis

Having been born and raised in St. Louis our favorite whenever we come back is pizza from Ponticello's Italian Restaraunt in Spanish Lake, north St. Louis county. It also uses Provel cheese, which we bring back also bought from Dierburg's or Schnucks, sliced thin with paper in between each slice. Ponticello's makes a really good, thin crust pizza and has wonderful Italian sausage and the world's best onion rings! There used to be at least 5 Ponticello's but now only 1. It's family run and as soon as it opens there's a line to get in.

Imo's Pizza in St. Louis

My family (wife & 2 kids) and I had the misfortune of stopping here in 1986 while driving to KC from NYC. We thought it was the worst excuse for Pizza ever imagined. We all agreed it was like making Pizza with Matzoh and Cheeze Whiz. UHG!!!!!! The sad part is it continues to win Best of St Louis year after year. After having an Italian dinner in the area known as the Hill I did understand why Imos is a St. Louis staple.
