Where's the best Greek pizza in CT?

[ratbuddy]

I'm not talking about some stupid pie with spinach, feta, and olives. I mean pan-baked, square-cut pizza. I loved Pizza West in West Hartford, but they're gone. I've tried Apollo in Simsbury, Elmwood Pizza, Park Lane Pizza, Whitney Pizza, and a few others. Am I missing anything good? Which is the best?

Country Pizza in Monroe. I'll admit it's been a long time since I ate there, and I have seen it knocked a few times since. I think anyone knocking it just doesn't like Greek pizza though, because it was consistently excellent for the first two decades of my life when I ate there frequently. When I drive by it occasionally now on a weekend evening, it obviously is still as popular as ever. Expect a long wait at peak times on a Friday or Saturday night.
Oh, one thing, it's not square cut. A lot of Greek Pizza is not, particularly in areas where Sicilian pizza is also popular.

Elmwood Pizza has a very, very good conventional (round, not pan) pizza.

Years ago we tried Park Lane and enjoyed what we had (we're not big pizza fans).

The place not mentioned: A Greek friend of ours is crazy about the pizza at Cavos, on the Berlin Turnpike. It's a great Greek restaurant where we've eaten apps and entrees but haven't yet had the pizza. If the quality of their pizza is anything at all like the quality of the rest of what they do, I'm sure it's great!

I used to live within spittin' distance of Elmwood Pizza, and it's definitely up there, just not as good/greasy as Pizza West was. I'll have to try Cavos for sure.

Elmwood Pizza tip: we don't order at 12:00 or 5:00. Our orders are placed when they're quiet; usually 3:00 in the afternoon. I've *had* their pizza, ordered during rush-hours, and indeed the crust is a little different. I've never had a problem with the oily/greasy factor. Perhaps they use a little olive oil judiciously on the topping combos we like: onion, mushroom, tomato, extra cheese; anchovies on half the pie for the brave ones.

I like great oak on route 32 in Norwich. The moussaka pizza is to die for.
