I grew up in Boston and i am from an Irish family but i absolutely love Italian food ! I have traveled all over the US and to more then a dozen countries. The best pizza i have ever had was from Di Fara Pizza in Brooklyn NY. It is absolutely amazing and i encourage anyone who gets the chance to try it!

Oh yeah Di Fara is absolutely some of the best pizza in the county. If you’re still in the tri-state area Santillo’s in Elizabeth NJ is on that level. Maybe even a bit better to be honest.

Thank you, Mr. Franzese! Thank you for your content, it’s always fire! Congrats on the addition of your grandson, and may The Lord bless you and your family as well! 🙏
Michael, I grew up in New York and New Jersey and in my teens ate pizza 4 or 5 times a week. I moved to LA and continued searching for comparable quality but was disappointed more times than not. I moved to Phoenix several years ago and have been pleasently surprised at the many great pizza joints here. You may have heard of Pizzeria Bianco which appears 1st or 2nd on a lot of polls for the best pizza nationally and there are 3 or 4 other great places within a mile of me and many more a little further away.

Great video Michael! The UK has the best of everything. Where it be sport, food or comedy. We really are spoiled. Keep up the good work 👍🏾
Hey Michael, glad to hear you are a fellow Neapolitan! Napoli is the most interesting city in all of Italia. Many Italian Americans have heritage rom Napoli and Campania.
I absolutely love this, Michael! You are correct about the crust and then comes the sauce then you got your toppings and the cheese is got to be real. And I must admit that vending machine actually look pretty sharp. I try it.❤

Sally's and Pepe's in New Haven has been voted the best in the country by quite a few people through the years that traveled the country tasting all the nations most popular pizza places. I haven't traveled all over but Sally's and Pepe's is hard to beat.
Definitely agree with Michael with that oil taste from the cheese....it might sound bad but that flavour is top notch 👌

Pizza vending machines are a million dollar idea. You're going to revolutionize the game with this. Here's hoping these come to the UK!
Awesome video, Michael 👍🏾
I may be biased but in my travels I have yet to find thin crust pizza better than here in NYC. It's all about the water used in the dough. I recall there is/was places in Vegas and SoCal that imported NYC water to make their pies.
You're right! It's in New Haven, Ct!

I live in England and must be one of the few who doesn't like pizza. For some reason everytime I tried it I was always sick afterwards so haven't had any for over 15 years now. Would love to be able to eat it but unfortunately it just doesn't agree with my stomach so am unable too. Its annoying when theres so many nice places that serve pizza whenever I go to london, Manchester, Newcastle etc. Love watching your videos Michael and think how you turned your life around is an inspiration to alot of younger people. I used to get into alot of trouble growing up and eventually got into taking and selling drugs after my partner lost our baby and passed away. Thanks to god I have managed to change my life for the better even tho I have hard days and always will I remember where I was and how it affected me and everyone I was close too.
I love how you get excited about this topic and pizza! I love pizza but I have never met someone that excited! This is fantastic and made my day!

I grew up in Illinois and I'm of German descent, but I do have a fondness of Italian cuisine; cuisines like spaghetti in particular. But pizza is definitely something that I always enjoyed. I mean I have eaten pizza from different pizzareas like Begger's, Domino's and Pizza Hut for that matter, but I do enjoy pizza in any other way.

Making me hungry Michael! Also, machines for the UK!
Mr Franzese, you can try anchovies on the pizza....Yuuuummm. You'll love it. By the way, in the Greek salad, you add green pepper 🫑too, season with oregano, salt, a splash of red wine vinegar and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil 🫒.
Even if the pepperoni is slightly scorched it passes. Thanks for letting us know about this deal 🎉
Saw you on Newsmax Michael. Very good interview.
Interesting. Looking forward to trying the Pizza machine.
There used to be a great pizza place in the Bronx, Vinnie's Pizza that has sadly closed. I love pizza with pepperoni, sausage, bacon and meatballs. Delish! I had great pizza when I visited Naples in 2015. The owner of the place reminded me of Bela Lugosi. Traditionally, the best pizzas are made in a brick oven.
Hey Michael! This is off the food subject a bit, but if you haven't already, you must see Equalizer 3 which takes place in Sicily and Italy. I think I enjoyed the scenery more than anything. BTW, my roots are from Supino and Napoli!
The crust on that pizza looks like a life boat
had clams and octopus on pizza in cambodia. blew my mind!
Michael, THE clam pie was invented in New Haven CT decades ago. Pepe's Pizza. It's their signature masterpiece. Go there.

Slices pizza is amazing.
I remember a pizza shop on Crossbay Blvd in Howard Beach right across the street from a sporting goods store b/c my mom took me over there to buy some football 🏈 equipment for Pop Warner
I’m not a pizza person and really didn’t care about it until a few years ago (had tried different kinds, including the very famous Joe’s pizza), when we stopped at this place in Ridgewood, NJ. It’s called Brooklyn Brick Oven Pizza (15 Oak st, Ridgewood NJ). So, now when the subject comes up about the best pizza in New York, that’s the place I recommend, even though it’s not in NYC.
The best pizza in the world can be found on Wooster Street in New Haven Connecticut

You haven’t been to Italy then obviously
I went to Seton Hall law school in Newark. About 3 blocks away is Queens Pizza II. Unreal.
Carmines in Palm Beach gardens has the best pizza I've come across, they use a coal fired brick oven that makes the perfect slice every time..!
I was at Slices in Downtown LA 2 years ago at this time. It was definitely good Michael.
Great that you're coming to Australia. You need to visit the Gold Coast. It's like the Miami of Australia. There's actually a place called Miami. But you need to see Surfers Paradise. It's the best place in Australia IMO.
Pizza Town in Elmwood Park NJ always had the best pizza, although it's been awhile since I've been up that way.

Hello Michael, from one Italian to another, my Nona was from Napoli and would always go to L' Antica; the oldest pizzeria in Napoli: L' Antica da Michele. Their sons came to Hollywood and we all now have L' Antica da Michele in California. Don't know if you've been, but if not, try their Margherita. Or, try the absolute closest thing to Italia in pasta at Toscano's home. That would be my house! Anyway, be blessed. Is. 41:10
great pizza video watchen right now did not know best pizza was in london not NY god bless be safe there
Miss slices in Newport Michael!! Still the best meatball sub I've ever had and I miss that Napolitano crust!! Are any of them still open or was it time to move on? Horrible timing with COVID so sorry!! It was a pleasure to meet you, I appreciate you taking the time for the photo!

I have had Joes, I love Prince street’s spicy vodka grandma slice. Prince street has a LA location now. I have yet to try Patsy’s. Grimaldis is delicious. Lombardi’s is amazing. Going to try Chris Bianco’s spot in Los Angeles. LA also has L’antica pizzeria da Michele which is from Italy and established in 1870. Scarr’s Pizza is ran by Scarr Pimentel. He worked in NY pizzerias for about 10 yrs. Everything in his restaurant is organic as possible. He even mills his own flour and uses Chris Bianco’s tomatoes for his sauce. Did I mention that I love pizza?
Scarr’s is great Michael! If you’re ever able to go back to NYC it’s worth checking out.

Sir, I visited Cuba in 2019... it is an amazing place and the people were awesome. Cuba should very wealthy.. As soon as you get off the boat/plane there is a smell that is going to take you back to your youth. The exhaust and the smoke stacks from their electric generators smells like 1965 ...sounds weird but i actually had memories of being a kid on the streets soon as i stepped foot in Havana. Smells are powerful.

I am heading back to Chicago Michael been in the food business for over 30 years had my own fast food Pizza place for 16 years would be nice working with you if you need good reliable honest help in the Chicago area this guy from Naples can help you out ... take care Michael peace and God Bless
Hoping to see "Slices" here in AZ. You'll have many customers here Michael!
Chicago Pasta House in Moreno Valley, CA. I’ve had it all over the world and they are the best
Hope you have one at john wayne airport because the food selection there is not great in the morning!
I've said it before and I'll say it again. You always mentioned how your dad liked to make Calzone for the family. You should put your dads Calzone on the menu at Slices in his memory. I'm sure it would go like crazy.
Now finding a good pizza place is my kind of adventure. ❤ I've had pizza in Northern Italy, Southern Italy, and many places in California where I live now. In the U.S., the mom and pop Italian restaurants operated by Italian American people are usually the best places, although I have to specify the way we like pizza which is different from standard American tastes. I like Italian style pizzas with less cheese (about 50% less cheese) and quality toppings. I once had pizza cooked in an old stone hearth at a hole in the wall pizza place outside of Naples, Italy. It came out of the oven looking burned, and I thought it was going to be terrible. It was incredibly delicious, best pizza in any restaurant ever! 😻 What I like the best is homemade pizza made by my wife. No restaurant and no machine can beat mama's fresh homemade pizza! 😻😻😻😻😻
