Speaking of Pizza

Where do you go to get a pizza margherita?

You know- the pizza with Mozzarella Cheese, Garlic, fresh tomato, basil, parmesan cheese, and olive oil (no tomato sauce).

Most of you have a pretty good idea where the photo above came from, but where do you go for yours and why? The crust, the ingredients, the atmosphere?

I'm gathering that one is from Iriana's?

Belly Boy: Actually it's Vino's.

The Margherita at Bosco's is pretty good to me.. I enjoy any place I can get a tasty brew with my pizza, also the side is perfect for someone like me who doesn't need a huge pie.

However, I'm almost more of a fan of the California at Bosco's (Chevre, mozz, sun-dried tomatoes, fresh basil, pine nuts & olive oil)

MMmm - is it lunchtime yet?

D'oh! I meant SIZE not side.

I definitely go for Iriana's--but why can't we have the option of Panera Bread Co. in Little Rock?

They do little pizzas in the evening that sometimes include a margherita option--and all their sandwiches, soups, salads, and pastries are good (even when the dressings are sometimes on the sweet side).

Roma's in Jacksonville and Searcy does a decent margherita. Atmosphere, not so much, maybe. I also like the one at that restaurant out Hwy. 10 in Little Rock that I can't think of right now--bet YOU can.

The wood-fired margherita pizza from Loca Luna is fabulous. Ask for smoked chicken added topping.

Belinda - could you be referring to Izzy's?

Only been out there once and I didn't try a pizza but I definitely considered it!
