What people say, in short
Many diners recommend DeSano, which has more than one location; the one diner who names where mentions Bellevue and the shop next to the Sounds stadium. Two diners praise its crust, one calling it fluffy, and one recommends the San Gennaro with sausage, peppers and caramelized onions. One diner who used to enjoy it found the middle soggy over time and now likes it less.
