This place is called 'Giovanni's'.  They were rated one of the top 100 pizza places in the US by Pizza Today magazine (this is according to their ad in the yellow pages).  I've eaten their pizza once about a month ago and enjoyed it alot.  I'm not from the East coast, so I can't say much about their NY authenticity, but worth a try.

I'm in enthusiastic agreement about Zachary's as the best Bay Area Chicago-style.  Plus, you can even order via the Internet via CyberSlice.  That'll probably upset the pizza purists even more...

My favorite pizza in Sunnyvale is Pee Wee's on El Camino Real between Mary Ave and Pastoria Avenue. They make very tasy thin crust pizzas (yum, yum).
