Critic's Review

There's a lot of bad pizza in Boca Raton, and trying to find a good once can be frustrating. I'd heard about Big City Pizza, but with so many Big City themed places around, I hadn't had a chance to try them. I noticed that they have 18" pizzas (the correct size for a NY style pizza), so today was their day.

The place is a small storefront and has a couple of places to sit inside, but this is really a takeout/delivery place. They don't deliver to Fort Lauderdale, so it's just pickup for me.

I ordered a half sausage pizza for a change, and it was waiting for me when I arrived exactly 16 minutes from when I called. I took a look at it, and I could tell this would be a good night: Yankees vs Cubs on Sunday Night Baseball and an 18" pizza. What could be better?

Big City Pizza (Boca)

Their menu says that an 18" pizza is 12 slices, which is just wrong. I asked them to cut it to 8 slices.

From a structural standpoint, the pizza was perfect; good sausage and the crust was just right. It was a very good pizza. It could have used a bit more cheese and the sauce was ordinary. But in this neck of the woods, it's a very good pizza and a good value.
