Thin crust or deep dish? Classic or modern toppings? If you want to have an intense debate about food, just ask someone for their favorite pizza joint in Kansas City. The Readers' Choice in this year's Best of Kansas City poll was Waldo Pizza. 

It appears there will also be a potential new entrant for next year, as Pizza Bar opens in the Power & Light District this week. Below are some of the other strong contenders in our readers poll: 
 

Minsky's -- This is the pizza to get while watching the game or having friends over for drinks.

d'Bronx -- Its thin crust and they make slices to order. This is where you go when you need to escape on your lunch hour.

Spin Neopolitan Pizza -- You can split a pizza and salad, so it's healthy, right? 

Grinders -- Proper barbecue chicken pizza in a town known for barbecue.

Joe's -- This is where you end the night -- in victory or shame.

Pizza 51 -- Slices as big as your head. When you're short on cash and long on appetite.

On this issue, I agree with jjskck.

My favorite (which I'm sure will make cheesy pizza lovers gag)is Pizza Bella...all about the crust.

My all-time favorite is the veggie delight from Papa Murphy's. So if a store-bought pizza is preferred to the restaurant variety, how great can KC pizza really be?

I don't think we have anything legendary in Kansas City. There are a bunch of good pizza places, but nothing...transcendent. I like every place on your list, with the acknowledgement that Joe's is more stomach lining than destination pizza fare.
