A Slice of Heaven

I have lived everywhere in the U.S. all my life. Both my parents were born and raised in Pittsburgh. At least 4 times a year, my family and I make the 8 hour drive...and Beto's is ALWAYS our first stop!! The cold cheese mixed with the warm thick crust causes this amazing and refreshing flavor to explode in your mouth. The sauce is thick and full of tomato chunks like real, homemade pizza sauce is meant to be. And at about $1.50 a slice, you never break your bank getting a good mouthfull taste of Pittsburgh.

The parking lot isn't ideal, but it never seems to stop me from enjoying myself while I'm there. I've been an avid Beto's lover for at least 10 years. And before I make that 8 hour drive back to TN, I always stop and buy Beto's, with the cheese on the side. It'll only last 2 days in my fridge at home, but it's a highlight to any trip up North.

• Pros: Amazing food!, cheap prices
• Cons: Parking

At one time, Beto's was the BEST..!

I have been visiting this Pizza Powerhouse since 1965. Yes. almost 45 years. This was by far, the best fresh and unique pizza ever made. Sadly, for the last 10 years their pizza has been so inconsistent, I can now only eat the Italian Hoagie's that are well done. The 28 cut pizza trays are now ...way, way overdone. The dough is now, burnt on the bottom, in most places. This erases that great, fresh baked, "Italian Bread", YEASTY, flavor in the dough. Like the fresh bread, the great, MANCINNI's bread bakery, creates on a daily, very consistent basis, in McKees Rocks Pa...just down the river. So Jimmy...always serve your pizza's crust, on the "RARE" side and that Drop Dead, 1960's, 70's and 80's, BETO's PIZZA, magic will be back...!

Your Friend,

• Pros: A Well DONE Italian Hoagie is still, "To Die For"
• Cons: BURNT Pizza Crust is now "SADLY", a comon occurrence..!
