I'm not saying it's top tier pizza or anything but it's better than plenty of other large chains. It's better than pizza hut, it's definitly better than little ceasars.

People just gotta realize that sbarro doesn't have to be anything more than trashy mall pizza. It works for what it is.

Just as Lil Caesar's works for $5 cheap pizza.

I mean the thing is if you live in a city, there are just bound to be better choices. Pizza isn't expensive, it's a pretty cheap food hence why its used for parties, so why not spend a few bucks and get a really good one? :)

I love that style of pizza for what it is. Like the last guy said, it's the perfect trashy mall pizza.

I mean sure. But I don't think I've ever eaten sbarro outside of a food court.

We don't have one here anymore, but sometimes you want the cheap and trashy stuff.

Sometimes I want Taco Bell, sometimes I want one of the local taquerias.

Think it's just one of those things that are cool to hate like Nickelback.

I've always liked Sbarro. There aren't many places that sell New York Pizza by the slice. The spaghetti isn't too bad either.

mostly this. it was fine when it was cheap, but when two slices start costing as much as half a pizza from somewhere better?

How odd. I was just about to post about them.

Anywho.. this was going to be my post so I will just drop it here.

I freaking LOVE Sbarro's. One of the things that I miss from being in the outside word is Sbarro's.

its a mediocre pizza place that only has existence in airports and shopping malls. only reason they continue to exist is because they don't compete with pizza chains.

also little caesers is way better than sbarro.

Big floppy thin slices; large surface area with very little bread but not crunchy like thin crust.

It is, or used to be. I've had plenty of real awesome NY pizza, Sbarro used to be as close as you got on a regular basis outside NY. You can go to a local place and try your luck, but even popular places that advertise New York style pizza often completely fail. Sbarro got that crust + sauce + cheese right.

Sounds like Sbarro pizza to me. I get that it's not perfect, but the style is more similar to it than the pizza you order for delivery.

If Im at the food court there are a lot better places to hit up for how much that pizza costs. I could get a huge tray of trashy asian food for cheaper. Or better yet, grab some Chick-Fil-A.

People are way too harsh on chains in general. Of course they're not as good as an authentic pizza joint, but they're not complete toxic, radioactive, inedible garbage like people make them out to be. People go with hyperbole way to much.

If you gave someone a slice of Sbarro pizza and told them it was from a little ma and pa shop I can virtually guarantee you they'd like it a lot more than if they had known it was Sbarro.

Studies like this have been done countless times and they never fail to produce consistent results.

my honest opinion, sbarro pizza looks so damn delicious. but when you actually take a bit, it's OK at best. not bad but a little disappointed.

i was pretty happy with their Stromboli however.

That was right before they were purchased and numbers stopped being easily available.

Thanks interesting watch!

It's a shame, kid me actually liked Sbarro a lot even if it was probably trash. Still some fond mall memories.

But it's from a time long past, yesteryear, Blockbuster, etc.
