Hey Paul,
If you kept your receipt you could have gotten a refund!

I’ll have to try Nick’s.

I’m a big fan of Dorian’s myself, mostly because it was my pizza place of choice in college.

But yeah, Paul is right on with Nick’s. That place is fantastic (but holy crap, expensive).

I’ve never tried Cosmo’s. The University area is kind of outside my prowling grounds.

I have yet to find another pizza place in town that matches Cosmo’s or Johnny’s but am always open to suggestion. I have tried many places that people assured me woudl be as good as or similar to those two favorites but none made the grade.

That said – I’ve never had a problem at Cosmo’s but I only get pies to take out or go in and order to eat in after I arrive. The wait staff is typically indifferent and delivers perfunctory service but I dig the old jukebox consoles in the booths. Back in the day (my high school days) that was the go-to place for munchies driven consumption pizza, coffee and hot fudge sundaes after seeing movies at Film Forum for $1 (Wednesday and Friday nights on campus in Gifford auditorium). And you could really put quarters in the consoles and hear music at the booth.

I was hoping this post would inspire some pizza shop suggestions! I really don’t feel like facing the nasty reception at Cosmo’s, so we will definitely be checking out Nick’s.

Your post inspired me to try the “new” Domino’s. While it was better than what I remember Domino’s to be like (years ago is the last time I’ve had it), I was generally underwhelmed. We got two medium pizzas with the marinara sauce. I agree that it was too sweet (I told them so on the survey that popped up on the website). It’s nice to see huge chains paying attention to quality however. I have to disagree on the best pizza in Syracuse though, to us at least that title belongs to Nick’s in Armory Square. They have a great Tuesday special, about 8 or 9 bucks for a large cheese. Mm, getting hungry thinking about it!
