Thick cheese is great, it was really the crust that gave it a frozen pizza/school cafeteria vibe. That and the pepperoni wasnt melted into it at all, just sort of resting on top. I will try Fiori's and report back.

So far the best pizza I've had in town was from Aiello's.

The pepperoni floating on top is for real in Squirrel Hill.

We live around the corner.

Don’t get slices. Order a whole pizza and they’ll put it on from the beginning. If you get a slice or few just get it as. But also don’t do that. It will have been sitting a lot longer.

I thought Mineo’s put their pepperoni underneath the cheese? Or is that just the Lebo location? Anyone else can chime in…

Maybe you legit did run into a brand new guy on the job. I have been eating Mineo’s for 20 years (albeit almost exclusively from the Lebo location) and I’ve never had one bad bite.

Also, in case you aren’t aware, Aiello’s stole their original recipe from Mineo’s (which makes your opinion on both somewhat humorous, but not atypical!)

I HIGHLY recommend Fiori’s. Not everybody who visits me from out of town loves Mineo’s like some of us yinzers do…but Fiori’s usually is a can’t miss, even from ahhta tahners.

Lastly, I’d go to Mineo’s in Lebo and give it a 2nd shot. You can get it by the slice, just in case.

Cheers and good luck!
