 | Speaking (or not... ;-) of New York style pizza in SD, has anyone tried Bongiornos in Solana Beach? From the map, it looks like it's in Eden Gardens. A couple of people (who I have no idea how foodie-oriented they are) have said this was the best NY-style pizza outside of NYC they'd ever had (yeah, yeah, I'm skeptical too...). Is it worth making a special trip to Solana Beach?

Please post address. All I've seen in that area are Mexican restaurnats.

Slightly smaller than Bronx (or Del Mar Pizza used to make), IIRC. I think they were 1/8 rather than 1/6 slices. About 1/2 the size of a Costco slice.

 | Just tried it for lunch today. A pretty good NY-style pizza, maybe not quite as good as Bronx, but definitely worth a try if you're around Del Mar/Solana Beach/Encinitas. Location is much closer to Lomas Santa Fe than Mapquest shows. Service is friendly, about ten slice choices, fairly inexpensive ($6 for two slices and a soft drink), some outdoor seating. They advertise Boars Head meats for their sandwiches too...

 | Slices are decent size but they have to re-heat in oven for about 1 minute to make hot. This degrades the quality, IMO.

 | But that's pretty much standard practice at all places that serve slices, even in NYC.
