The absolute best value pizza, I've maybe ever seen, is the 18' SuperCollosal Pizza. $10 bucks for a one topping pizza. These pizzas fed my brothers and I growing up, so I definitely have a nostalgia bias for this pie.
The recipe has remained unchanged, more or less since it was Direnzios beforehand. It's a thin, yet fluffy crust, with a sauce that has the sweet kick of a great Youngstown pie, and a thick texture. I've always been a huge fan of the way the cheese melted over these pies too.
The manager of this shop is never sparing with toppings, and they're all really delicious here. The homemade meatballs have always been a staple, but as a vegeterian myself I've really become fond of their jalapeños, onions, and peppers. They're all relatively small toppings, or thin, which allows for a real rich bite.
The pizza works really well cold, or as a next day pizza as well. And with that much Pizza for ten bucks? No reason not to save it for later. I also cannot say I've ever complained about the non-pizza options on the menu either.
There is no indoor dining, there used to be and I'm not sure when that changed and personally think it's a shame seeing that it's a relatively cute space all things considered.
However my lack of a star is because in recent years my pizzas have been inconsistent, some just flat out feeling uncooked compared to others. I would normally let it pass as a bad or busy day, but it's been about the frequency of every other pizza recently.
It seems like luck of the draw ordering here, on the one hand I never lose with the price being what it is, on the other hand it feels as though I might be setting myself up to buy a pizza that's not up to standards either. Not my own standards, but the standards set by how excellent these pizzas can be.
A great Gezos Pizza is the best Pizza in Salem, and the quintessential blueprint for my favorite personal kind of pizza. A bad Gezo's pizza isn't something that used to exist, but now that it can be, those aren't much better than the standard Papa John's or Pizza Hut pies.
But at that price? it remains an unbeatable gamble. And the man running this store works his tail off enough to keep me coming back for a while, on the basis of his passion alone. Just, a few more minutes in the oven on some of these pies, that's all...

Read moreI don’t know why this place has such high reviews. I ordered a 14 inch half cheese and half pepperoni. It had so much sauce on it that I was literally scooping it off. The flavor of the sauce tasted like a cheap canned Prego or something similar. Then the crust. It was like biting into a sponge. This pie is gross. Go next door to Alfredo’s. Much better pizza. Seriously. One bite, everybody knows the rules...Gezo’s pie...1.3 out of 5. Prices on google are inaccurate also. It says a 14 inch is $6.99 and a $1.00 for each topping. I ordered a 14 inch and half pepperoni. It cost me $10.99. Maybe prices went up, which is fine. Update the site...
