There was a place in Yonkers that did an amazng two crust pie and a place in Lynbrook, LI (Garbarinos)that had an incredible puffy crust. The last time I was in NY I broke my diet to try pizza and in Manhattan couldn't find anything worthy at all. As far as I know the only real differentiation is between NY-style (flat) and Chicago-style (deep dish). So the main thing is a flat-style pie with a somewhat puffy crust and good, homemade sauce and high-quailty cheese. If you see cans of sauce and packs of lousy cheese, that's not going to be good pizza. Other than that, it becomes a matter of personal taste. Oh yeah, the dough should be tossed, not rolled. The worst pizza I've had on the mainland would be the Boston or Greek style. This is a small, greasy pie with thick sauce and lousy cheese.
