Steel City Pizza

When a restaurant expands into a million dollar facility, they must be doing something right with their food. Case in point for Giuseppe’s Steel City Pizza. While I do realize I’ve already written a post about their expansion, I knew I needed to follow up with their food. An opportunity to try a restaurant that has won dozens of Daytona Beach News Journal’s Reader’s Choice Awards can’t be passed up.

Pulling up to the building I could tell it had been there for quite some time with it’s low ceiling yet gigantic one-way windows.


Once I walked inside my eyes were glancing all around the room trying to inspect each of the thousands of pictures, license plates, and sports paraphernalia that was crammed into such a small area. It honestly felt like a man cave, and I would’ve enjoyed it had it not been for all the Pittsburgh gear. They’re not called Steel City Pizza for nothing.

I tried to take a 360 degree photo of their most decorated room, but I was very unsuccessful.



I sat down and inspected the menu. Thankfully it was easier to read than their cluttered walls. Don’t get me wrong though, I did enjoy looking at all their decorations. Their menu was stacked with options. Of course they had pizza, but they also had subs, wings, pasta, sliders, and chicken and shrimp baskets. It was a difficult decision, but because they’re known for pizza I had to order a pepperoni pizza.

After a longer than average wait the pizza finally arrived. Just by looking at it I knew it would be the best pizza I had ever tasted. A New York-style thin crust covered in oil, grease, and pepperoni. My kind of pizza exactly. Once I topped it with Parmesan cheese, I dug in. The salty mozzarella cheese mixing with the even saltier pepperoni slices balanced by sweet tomato sauce was a match made in heaven. The flavors collided resulting in an explosion my taste buds had yet to experience. It truly was the best pizza in the area.


I was heading home a happy man. My belly was full and I had enough left over for lunch the next day. The staff seemed overwhelmed at times and the service was slower than usual, but the food made up for it and then some.
