text: Las Vegas is highly influenced by Italian culture In the mob days it was not uncommon for Italian culture to thrive in the town The mobsters many of Italian descent would have families that lived here The family would set up shop and run a legitimate business in town Sometimes even mobsters themselves would put up legitimate business as a means to launder money procured in notsolegal sorts of waysnnSilicis Pizza on Twain claims to have been in business since That is over years And while this establishment may or may not have been related with any of the nefarious history of Vegas I can tell you that this place is ran by the same people who started it many years ago The owner a man well into his s and his son can often be seen in the place This place does NO advertising aside from a flier that they rarely ever hand out at random You have to actually go there to get a menuflier It is this kind of charm that really gives this place much appeal nnBut charm alone does not make a good place to eat Sicilis has to have the best pizza that I have ever eaten This claim alone speaks bundles since I love pizza and am very picky about it I resist the cardboard pizza chains that is you Dominos Papa Johns and Little Caesars whenever I can So when I find a solid authentic Italian pizza place I have to go for itnnSicilis does not skimp on the quality It is truly as authentic as you can get The sauce is sweet and tangy and the dough is robust with a flavor all it is own Their unique blend of cheeses is a secret and the pinnacle of the toppings Everything from this point is secondary It is excellent in freshness and quality but hard to outdo the core of what makes a good pizza splendid nnThis business is strictly carryout and delivery only Do not expect to be able to sit down and eat But then again that is not what this place is about The prices are moderate to the higher end But keep in mind the quality you are getting If it is a cardboard pizza you want there is places for that If you want a quality pie come to Sicilis and pay the little bit extrannMy Centsn Stars Would have rendered a perfect score if the prices were a bit lower But you do get your moneys worth Good for a treat if you want some genuine Italian style pizza at home My suggestion hit up their lunchdinner specials for the best value
