	Wow... six. And I've never even heard of eight or nine of the fourteen I missed.

	Tim_Allen:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 20:40 GMT	18 points
	I love that there is a Pizza Magazine. I think I need to subscribe...

	WadeGarrett:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 20:40 GMT	2 points
	Wow ... I guess that shows how regional things are. Being from Texas, I've never heard of Noble Roman's, Casey's, Papa Murphy's, Hungry Howie's, Round Table, Fox's or Simple Simons. I would never have guessed that Pizza Pro would be that high, either, or Pap Gino's.

	wow good game. i was surprised at how many i got. CHUCK E. CHEESE'S WILL ALWAYS BE NUMBER 1 IN MY HEART

	rockhopperlad:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 20:45 GMT	4 points
	I only got nine. I can't believe I forgot Papa Gino's. I loved them when I lived in Massachusetts when I was a kid!

	jkd:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 20:46 GMT	3 points
	I got the top 4, and Chuck E. Cheese was the only one I forgot and should have known. I don't think I have ever heard of any of the others here in Canada, where we have 3 of the top four. The other one I guess I saw in a commercial on American TV.

	@Stephen Sides: I, too, live in Texas, and there happens to be a Hungry Howie's right down the road from me. I had no idea it was a large chain, though, and just guessed it on a whim.

	papa john's rules.

	Vernon Gonsalves:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 20:58 GMT	4 points
	Well here in Trinidad, we only have Pizza Hut (godawful), Papa John's (great) and Domino's (average) of the American franchises. So I only got those 3. The only other ones I'd heard of were Little Caesar's and Chuck E. Cheese. Tried our local franchises (Mario's Pizzeria, Joe's Pizza and Pizza Boys) but no good :(

	Zach Harris:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:07 GMT	2 points
	a lot of these I never even heard of lol.

	cassykins:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:11 GMT	0 points
	We don't have Cici's here, but my grandmother raves about it. I wonder if that's a good or bad thing.

	In Italy pizza chains are almost non-existant (Rossopomodoro, Pizzarito), there are mostly individual "pizzerie". The quality is usually better.

	mrnrjct:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:14 GMT	0 points
	The restaurant styles are a bit arbitrary. I understand that some Pizza Huts let you dine in but I'm not sure that's family style. And Round Table is not "Quick-serve" in the same manner as a Sbarro. If anything it would be "family style." I suggest the style of restaurant be removed entirely.

	Kris:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:16 GMT	0 points
	I got 8. Never heard of the other 12!

	mrnrjct:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:16 GMT	2 points
	@Cassy: Cicis was one of my first jobs, about 10 years ago, as a busboy. And I can confirm, their pizza tastes like ass. Cheers to your Grandma, glad I don't have to eat with her.

	smacaskill:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:20 GMT	0 points
	I got all eight that I've heard of. I thought Uno would be higher than that. Maybe they priced themselves out of the market?

	Gordo:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:22 GMT	0 points
	I agree with mrnrjct. Around here, all Pizza Huts are take out/delivery only and all Round Tables are sit down family style places. The style of restaurant for Pizza Hut at least makes sense, since I know that many are family style, but I've never seen a "quick serve" Round Table place - they're all old-school sit down restaurants, even the brand new places.

	I got Pizza Hut and Domino's but I have never even heard of 17/18 that I missed. You know which one I knew and missed :P

	DWolf:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:31 GMT	1 point
	Yeah, lots I never heard of. Got top 4 and CPK. Should have known a couple others. Although I think Pizzaria Uno should be accepted for Uno Chicago Grill; the sign out front still said Pizzaria Uno last time I walked by it here in Chicago.

	isaac:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:33 GMT	0 points
	no question, if you want really good pizza you need to go to a locally owned restaurant. Its more expensive but usually worth it. Little Caesars is horrible, amazing that people buy so much of it. I guess people can't resist the 5 dollar price, but I would rather go hungry. Dominos is only slightly better. Pizza Hut is edible, but far from great.

	Tim99:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:37 GMT	0 points
	Wait, what? There's actually a "Pizza Magazine?"

	Cael:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:45 GMT	4 points
	I can't believe Bertucci's didnt make the list.

	rottenmonk:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:50 GMT	0 points
	Live in WA and I've never heard of half of these. I only got Cici's and Uno because of traveling.

	I thought papa ginos was striclty Mass ...go figure

	gp2387:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:53 GMT	1 point
	Got 8. Like the others, most of these I haven't heard of.

	Ben:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:54 GMT	3 points
	DWolf: it is accepted.. just spelled Pizzeria Uno

	ku_sucks:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 21:56 GMT	3 points
	i know imo's is only in st. louis, but given that they are everywhere (think starbuck's in seattle, or DD in new york), i thought they might make the bottom of the list.

	DrumBum88:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 22:11 GMT	1 point
	surprised there is no Donato's, Marco's, or East of Chicago...I actually knew those three

	cocky:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 22:11 GMT	1 point
	Pizza Hut was a dine-in place for years until they started delivery and put in buffets. The quality of the pizza has declined since then.

	beatrix kiddo:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 22:21 GMT	8 points
	i got the top 2 because we have them over here. other than that i failed miserably to get any more, depite typing in pizza-anything that i could think of: pizza-king; mcpizza; kentucky fried pizza ... etc

	MovieDynamic:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 22:28 GMT	0 points
	WTF are all these places? Just proves that mainstream doesn't always equal best. You'd be much better going to your local pizza place than any of these corporate cheeses.

	slew:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 22:32 GMT	0 points
	I love how CPK is acceptable for California Pizza Kitchen. I thought only a handful of people called it that. Best (and very expensive) pizza restaurant that I know of here in Michigan.

	Forgot the "s" on Little Caesars!

	@jason, Beside your logo, I could tell you from Ohio just by the pizza parlors you mentioned.

	jzev:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 23:11 GMT	-1 points
	I prefer the local places to these chains and their frozen pies

	RobH:	Feb 20th, 2009 at 23:29 GMT	1 point
	Nope. Only got 2 (the first two). Not sure I would have got any of the 18 I missed had I not given up. I like Pizza, but I guess I'm living on the wrong side of the planet for this quiz :)

	Just moved to Kentucky within the last year, and I'm glad to see Mr. Gatti's did not make the list. It's like CiCi's, but worse. Seriously. On the other hand, LaRosa's in Cincinnati is great.
