Settebello. The closest thing to an Italian pizza outside Italy I've ever had.

Roccos New York Italian Deli at Charleston and Buffalo and Broadway at Charleston and Rancho.

I don't ever remember seeing calzones at Rocco's, but they do make good strombolis. But for pizza, I haven't had anything approaching Settebello, my favorite LV pizza since the Leaning Tower of Pizza bit the dust.

For all those who rave about Settebello, is the pizza supposed to be liquidy (almost undercooked) in the center?

I went there once after hearing the great reviews and was very disappointed. We ordered four different pizzas and all of them came out with a very soggy center that was luke-warm at best.

Sadly, it was very unsatisfying. I was expecting a nice crust and cheese bubbling and steaming. I received none of those things. It was just a warm pizza that was so soggy that it was hard to pick up with a fork.

Was that just an off day? Or maybe that's just the style of pizza they serve?

On another note, we ordered our dessert pizza with our meal and it was brought to us about 5 minutes after receiving our entree pizzas. The server apologized for it being early, but still left it with us. Sadly we had to eat our entrees first, so the dessert pizza sat on the table untouched for 30-45 minutes. I really expected them to either toss the dessert pizza and time it for later, offer to bring us a fresh one while leaving the original, or at least taking it off the bill. I was again disappointed.

I wanted so badly to like Settebello.

"Was that just an off day? Or maybe that's just the style of pizza they serve?"

If you just Google "Neapolitan pizza soggy," you'll see your question repeated many times about many different pizza places. Settebello offers genuine Neapolitan-style pizza, and this includes a soft center. Not everyone is a fan of this style, and some come to love it after an initial distaste, and others love it right away. I'm in the last camp. Settebello's pizza does have to be eaten right away. If the crust around the outer half of the pizza was soggy, then I'm afraid you experienced an off-day. Otherwise, you might not like the style. If you are a fan of bubbling cheese, you probably wouldn't like the spareness of Neapolitan style, and would probably enjoy DeMarco's much more. I like both.

Oh, thanks for the info. Perhaps I just don't like that style. We also weren't able to eat right away. The pizzas arrived (on super hot plates) and then it took at least five minutes to get silverware.

Perhaps I'll give them another try this weekend. With all the raves, I really want to like them.

Thanks for the DeMarco's recommendation. I'll have to make sure to give that a try too.

Just for your amusement, take a look at the comments about Keste, a Neapolitan-style place in Manhattan, which some consider to have the best pizza in NYC, and others hate. Check out all the "soggy comments": http://www.menupages.com/restaurants/...

Since what constitutes a good pizza is so subject, I suggest there will never be anything approaching a consensus as to the "best" pizza in any given town. I like Roccos. I like Settebello. But each is a completely different style and should not reasonably be compared against each other.

That being said, my current facorite is Grimaldi's in Henderson.

Went to Grimaldi's for lunch yesterday after finding out Settebello was closed. Last year I passed by the Brooklyn Grimaldi's and gave up after noticing the very long line outside, so I looked forward to checking this location, the closest to L.A..

I ordered a large with single sausage topping. Crust was thin and slightly crispy as expected, charred blisters, not overly sauced. Sausage was nicely seasoned. Server told me many felt it was just as good as the original Grimaldi's, but of course there are arguments whether or not Grimaldi's belongs in the pantheon of NY pizza. I will say I liked it a lot better than the soggy pie I had at Arturo's in Manhattan, another coal oven pizzeria (great jazz, though!).

Unrelated side note to Angelenos: Found out there were a few Dunkin Donuts scattered about the Vegas/Henderson area. Made my day!

[kjs]

a few ?? my guess is 15 .

Also, Grimaldi's is open in the Summerlin area ( on rampart ) - but i've yet to try.

my last pizza was at Rao's - decent. no surprise you have to pay a premium ( $14-18 ) and they only serve at lunch. i'll try to find some pics to post

Settebello's is not closed! They've moved to the District in Green Valley, on the same side as Whole Foods, not on the casino side. Definitely one of my favorite pizza places in Las Vegas/ Henderson.

Ciao Ciao pizza makes me weep with pleasure.

[blaireso]

Try New York Pizza on Jones & Sahara, northeast corner little hole in the wall, family owned and operated. My husband, who is from the Bronx and also says there is no good pizza here, likes theirs. Also try the linguini with red clam sauce and their garlic knot rolls. Mama mia!

We also like Mark Rich's waaay up in Summerlin--Charleston west of the 215--but I'd steer clear of anything except the pizza, which is very good. Everything else we've tried is not something I'd serve to anyone in my family, let alone guests.

[BestPizzaInLasVegas]

There is decent pizza in Las Vegas and the thing is the scene is growing and better and better pizza places are cropping up. I'd add to this list:

Pizzeria at the Cosmopolitan Hotel (aka Secret pizza place)
Dom DeMarco's Pizzeria & Bar
Biaggio's Pizzeria

Anthony and Mario's Broadway Pizzeria on North Rancho Drive is great, especially their calzone

For California style Sammy's Woodfire is our favorite.

I'm personally not a fan of Metro.

[julesrules4food]

Make this another vote for NY Pizza & Pasta on Jones/Sahara and Anthony & Mario's Broadway Pizzaria on both Rancho and Sahara. These are the best pizzas we've found outside of NY with the exception of Renato's in Fountain Valley/Santa Ana area on Brookhurst in OC.
As to Grimaldi's, as I said on another thread..YUK!!
But pizza is to each his own, what one likes another hates. Depends on where you grew up, me Long Island visiting relatives and friends weekly in Brooklyn, Jackson Heights, Bronx etc., eating pizza by the slice.

I love the subject of pizza....it's as passionate as politics.

Forget Grimaldis....fake junk. Don't buy into it.
Due Forni....just a bit better than Grimaldis,
Forget Rocco's....dull.
DeMarcos is ok...but barely.
Metro...not bad, but just ok.
Joey's...sucks.
Big Mammas and Big Pappas....blech.
Napoli....not bad.
Albo's on the strip....surprisingly pretty good.
Old School Pizzeria.....ok, but crust too thick.
Naked City Pizza....I have no idea what they're thinking here.
Broadway Pizza....fine, but not memorable.
Villa Pizza...yawn.

The only places to consider for REAL neapolitan pizza (commonly called NY pizza by those who've never been to Italy) is:
Settebello
Ferraros

Now for "neighborhood" ;pizza.....
after 5 years of looking there is only one: Sicili Pizzeria: a little joint in a dingy strip mall on Twain, 2 blocks off the strip. Absolutely wonderful! Absolutely authientic.
It's where I go every week.
It's a secret. Don't tell anyone!
