| - My favorite pizza joint in the valley!
Consistency and friendly service pay off. My family has been eating at Ray's for a number of years, and I have tried most of them in the north valley. I keep coming back here because they are the best.
The 2 brothers that run this location are the best. They are friendly, welcoming, and go out of their way to make their customers happy. I once asked them about their pizzas. I have eaten a lot of pizza there, and I have never had a bad one; I also have never seen a bad looking pizza there (the crust is always uniform, about 1/3 to 1/2 inch. always.) The answer was simple. I was told that one, if not both of them are always there; and they look at every pizza before it leaves the kitchen. When they are busy, I love watching their crew work together; I wish all restaurants took this kind of care with their food and strived to put out a quality product.
Both the Neapolitan and Sicilian pizzas are great; but if you order the Sicilian, you will have a lot of pizza (not that this is a bad thing!).
The chicken wings are like the wings at almost every other place, deep fried with the usual choice of sauces. They are always fresh though, just cooked, and we have never had the "old oil" taste that you sometimes get at other restaurants.
Dinners (spaghetti, chicken parm, etc...) are also available. They all come with salad, bread and real butter. I like the spaghetti and meat balls; nothing fancy, but tasty and comforting. My wife likes the chicken parm dinner, a generous amount of chicken with sauce and cheese, plus a side of spaghetti, plus the aforementioned salad and bread.
This Ray's is over 20 miles from our house, and we have to drive by 2 other Ray's to come here. All I can say is that it's worth the drive. Try it, you'll like it.
