My favorite pizza place was a local joint near where I grew up. They closed down a few years ago when the owners retired. Haven't found anywhere comparable since, and I've given up hope that I ever will.
Oh actually one that might have been better was Uno's Jambalaya Pizza. The first time I got it I'm not sure what they did, maybe they went extra-heavy on the cajun sauce they used but it was the best THING I've ever eaten. I don't know if it was really the best PIZZA I've ever eaten though, since despite being a form of pizza, it was very un-pizza-like. Subsequent times I've gotten it haven't been nearly as satisfying, despite still being very good. And it was a limited-time item that they aren't currently offering.
