Papa John's is thoroughly mediocre. Definitely not worth a trip, esp.
since they're only take out.

I heard Caesar's is still in business somewhere, but I don't recall
where. There used to be a Caesar's around the corner from where I used
to live years ago. They had competitive prices, but their pizza was
always cooked too much.

They're okay if you like deep dish pizza.

I prefer local pizza places rather then chain places. Just tonight, a
collogue and I put in a 12 hour day at work, so we sent out for pizza
from a place in Philadelphia called Jake's, which is on the corner of
Race and Broad Streets. That pizza was very good.

Probably my favorite pizza in the Philly area is Fiesta Pizza, which is
a local three store chain in Philadelphia's suburbs. Their pizza is
superb.
