(New to the list: Pizza Boy, La Cueva del Chicken Inn)

I love pizza. If I really wanted to, I could very embarrassingly (or impressively, depending on how you look at it), eat an entire NY sized pie by myself. It is also not a stretch for me to imagine that in another lifetime I was guy who they made a documentary about who had only eaten pizza every day for 30 years. I also don’t discriminate against different styles of pizza, probably since I have had many phases loving them all. I grew up eating only Kosher, and so my initial preference was based on the classic Kosher NJ pizza: doughy, cheesy, and opted for sweeter sauces. There are still few things that taste better than a pie of pizza just moments after Passover ends. Once I started eating non-Kosher, the next evolution of my pizza preferences was Artichoke, then Sicilian. Next came the Brooklyn/Neapolitan evolution from Roberta’s and Paulie Gees (before their slice shop), but eventually I swung to the other side of the fence and now think nothing is better than a classic Joe’s or Paulie Gee’s slice. So it’s very important to me to have access to a broad pizza selection of good pizza, and thankfully this is one of the restaurant categories that San Juan has a lot of. Here are my favorites on the island.
