Honestly, I've had Amici's pizza after hearing so much about it on the radio. Amici's is good, but HIGHLY...HIGHLY overrated for the price. Not just because I work at Pizza Hut, because I like our "rival" Dominoes Pizza better. Besides, you can get more pizza from Pizza Hut with the deals we got currently...although the best one won't work with delivery. But that's my own opinion.

I've never eaten at Amici's, but...

While their prices are a tad high, they really don't look that bad for good pizza here in the bay area. If it is, indeed, good pizza, I don't think pizza hut or dominos should even be brought up. More pizza=/= good deal when it's bad pizza.

It's to Pho 69. Again, I don't know if it's any good, but I want to be stuffing my face with curry. Fo' sho'.


I'm so hungry right now!

Living in San Jose for more than 5 years has only made me more aware of this problem. NEVER go to any of the fast food places when there is a con in town. Even if it's roughly 5 miles away. They're going to be so busy that nearly 90% of the food is never cooked all the way. I don't know how many times I've gotten food poisoning from MC D's or BK. Or the few times I got old meat from a Sub Way. The only place I could even suggest eating at is either La Victorieas' (right near the con) for Mexican food and maybe this carles' Jr that's a block or 2 from the con. Everywhere else... just be careful to the food being all under cooked and never handled right.

Sounds like you just have bad luck.

I don't know about the best, but me and my friends are going to try a BBQ/Steakhouse place we saw on Man Vs. Food. I forget the name, but its prob on their website somewhere, it looked good.

Last time I was their, I had sushi, but I don't exactly remember where, we walked north of the Fairmont and kind of found it.

I think it's "Henry's high-life." I've eaten there and it's really good.
