None, the list sucks except perhaps for Papa Murphy's as I haven't had it yet and hear it's awesome and cheap since you have to bake it yourself at home.
Personally I like this local guy who has had the recipe here in town for like 30+ years from his father. The pizza is like $5 more than usual but it's insanely thick and filling so even just a couple pieces get you full and the taste is uniquely fantastic.

Little Ceaser's used to have this pizza in the 90's that was like three feet wide. I don't know if they have it anymore since I no longer live near one, but that thing was legendary back in the day.
I'd go with CiCi's. The pizza tastes like cardboard, but they have BBQ pizza (WIN), a twin/Deluxe Daytona USA machine, and it's all you can eat. Win.

Of the ones on the list, I'd say Sbarro's is the best. However, there's a local place called Rosario's. The owner actually immigrated from Italy maybe ten years ago (I'm not sure exactly on that count), but his family makes some AWESOME pizza, dude. And it's humongous and cheap, too. So,
Huge + Tasty + Cheap= MOTHER****ING WIN.
Coral, I swear to God, if you even think about twisting that, I will hunt you down and...use...harsh language. VERY HARSH.

Tom and Nancy's but they don't deliver to my area, so when I can't drive there, I order Guida's.

National Pizza chains? Are you ****ing kidding me? I've lived in New York my whole life. If it isn't a local coal-oven or brick-oven pizzaria from Brooklyn or Staten Island, it is utter trash. I'm sorry but pizza from any other state but New York is garbage.

Hah the recipe I eat locally here is an old one and damn good family recipe. Impellizeri's is timeless.

New York pizza is a rank imitation of real Italian pizza (by Italian, I mean made by a first generation Italian immigrant, not a guy that's sixth generation Italian-American). Besides, I agree with Virion, Chicago style is better. And Tombstone is pretty damn good for a frozen pizza.
Has anyone had California style? I want to know what it's like, but I've heard that it's nothing like NY or Chicago, and I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

There's a California style pizzeria in Charlotte called Brixx. It's wood-fired, so it'll probably taste a lot different on that score. It IS where my favorite hockey team has their pre-game parties, so I'll have to go there sometime. I just wanted to get opinions.
And I've only had Chicago pizza once from a place called Uno's, but that was some awesome pizza. Too bad they closed down years ago.:(

I had Papa John's nearly every week when I was in Oklahoma. The dough is so sweet and yummy.
When I'm at home there are some choice independent places I like, but because I'm a lazy bum I usually just order Pizzza Hut online. Plus, three quarters of the places on that poll aren't in Aus anyway.
Never understood the whole New York/Chicago-style debate while I was over there, even though I went to both cities... we just have pizza here.
Either Mr. Gatti's (pizza buffet 24/7 ftw), or Double Daves (pepperoni rolls...mmmmm)
Only Austin, TX people will get these.

little ceasar's was good back in the day before they did the hot n' ready.. now all their pizzas are really bland and have a god awful amount of air bubbles in the dough. i'm not a fan of pizza hut's pepperoni.

Papa Murphy's is the best in my area. There used to be one when I lived in Tacoma called Pacific Pizza Co., and they were the best, but they closed about a year before I moved. Right after Papa Murphy's came to town, actually.
When I was in Japan, one of my students made me promise to take him to an American Domino's if he ever comes over here. He said he ate it all the time when he lived in Australia, but the Japanese version tastes "too healthy". :D

Dominoes if flat out disgusting. It's like vomit spread over dough and delivered to your door. Everybody knows that Round Table is the best out there aside from some individual Pizzerias. But for the sake of this poll I went with Sbarro's like the Smokester did.

I live in Northern California and only 3 of those choices are in my area.
I know of like 6 of those here in San Jose either near my home or work which are at opposite ends of the city.
-mazzio's italian eatery
-sbarro's italian eatery
-papa murphy's take 'n' bake
-pizza hut
-papa gino's
-domino's
-godfather's
-cici's
-california pizza kitchen
-little ceasar's
There may even be a Papa Murphy's too but I'm not sure off hand.

I also have a Round Table, 2 Mountain Mike's, and at least one High 5 Pizza near my house too. One place I used to get delivery from was called Pappa Georggeo Pizza (http://www.pappageorggeo.com/)...to bad I don't live in the delivery area anymore. And I like Dominoes too :P. I don't think there has been a pizza place that I haven't likes yet. Theres lots of pizza selection to go around here.

I've been seeing a lot of commercials lately for Cici's and I have no idea where I can fine one Robert. Same goes for the restaurans Sonic and Ruby Tuesday.

Of that entire list, only 2 are in this country. Woulda been 3, but I haven't seen a Little Caesers since I lived in Tooting back in '87.
The 2 I do know of, Dominos and Pizza Hut - I pick.....
... neither.

Wait...maybe I'm thinking Amici's... ya thats it. Got the names confused. Amici's is right downtown. I once emailed Cici's as to why they were advertising here since there are no locations anywhere around and they pretty much just said that they are always looking for areas to expand to.
I don't know why the other 2 advertise either. I haven't seen any of them around here.
CiCi's ... is... so... gross.
Actually, I take that back. It's buffet pizza, so it's not going to be the best by default. However... the clientele? Disgusting. It's like, what... 7 bucks for all you can eat pizza? Yeah. You can look at any inner city bus stop at 4am to see what clientele you'll possibly be eating next to.
Jason knows.
