Do you remember Frank Vetere's? They had deep dish pizza, but I would prefer to call it thick crust pizza. That's was good.
My best pizza is my mother's and any from a fine Italian establishment. Il Fornello isn't bad either.
Chicago deep dish in GTA?

It's definitely not like a food chain's. Seems like more wholesome ingredients. No such thing as 'cardboard-like pizza'.
Gosh, last time I was in Italy years ago, you can eat pizza with a knife and fork, or have it wrapped to go and eat it with your hands. First time I saw pizza with sliced potatoes laid on top. That's Italy for you. The originals. Not the commerically, mass-produced stuff we see here or in the States.
The pizza in Italy is not any better than you can get at a good Italian place here in Toronto, Woodbridge or Little Italy in particular. Go to a good wood oven pizza place in the Toronto area and order one relatively plain (cheese, sauce, basil, maybe a meat on it) and it will be virtually the same as what you would get in Italy.
Micky's Pizza is awesome, I live close by and it has become an addition, just call ahead cause it gets busy and when they run out of dought they close early. That should tell you how popular it is.
I remember it but never tried it, don't think there was one close to me growing up.
Definitely remember it and still miss it. At the time it was head and shoulders above the competition, and would still hold it's own today.
Yes, I have ordered delivery from them many times. It isn't cheap but the toppings are very good quality and they load the pizza's with them so you can't even see the cheese or the crust, my favorite pizza place in Ontario.
