At Nello’s Pizza, the thick-crust slices are so huge you might want to cut them in half lengthwise. But it’s the restaurant’s generous portions and quality recipes that have kept local chain Nello’s in business for more than 20 years with five Valley locations. Imagine pizzas that are so covered in toppings, you can’t see the cheese underneath — but don’t worry, there’s plenty of it in there. Dig into a giant salad, too, or a sandwich, calzone or pasta dish. It’s so good, you’ll want to gobble up everything.
