Joe's has been a mainstay for 42 years, perched in the shadow of a Domino's, believe it or not, at Airway and Smithville. Ultra-clean, simple decor makes for an inviting dining room, where you can eat some of the very best pizza Montgomery County has to offer: medium-thick, crispy crust, wired sauce and a heavy blanket of toppings and cheese. Served on a piece of thick foil and looking much bigger than its 14 inches, a Joe's pizza will definitely send you home happy.
Three-item jumbo (14-inch): $13.75; ask about the EB X EB for $19.75 jumbo.
Leadbelly note: They sell unbaked pies you can heat at home.
Ray: As a pizza snob who views Midwest pies as red sauce and cheese on a cracker, Joe's has turned me. Nice chewy crust, zesty sauce, gooey cheese. Midwest pie? Fugedaboudit. This is the real deal.
Jim: I feel blessed.
Ron: For my time and money, Joe's may well be the top pizza in town. It sets the standard. The sauce is some of the best I've tasted. Try the sausage: The coriander busts out of every hunk.
