Oh ya had them both. Honestly didn’t think either was that bad. I know good food for sure and would go for it over the alternative any day. But I could eat the food off the floor and be happy. When I used to work the bars in Boston there was this joint just in between Faneuil hall and haymarket. A corner store run by Arabs. Place was an absolute cesspool. They made the worst f’n pizza in the world. We ate it every Friday and Saturday night.
Yeah. It's like having sex with an ugly fat chick with bad breath. If you're THAT horny, it works. But, uhhhh, at 51, I can wait. For good pizza and good sex. LOL

J's flying is good as well. Same vein of SS Bar Pizza. Baldie's in Lakeville is similar, too. Definitely good sauce and well made, but traditional crust. Better than the drive to J's or LW. Or Union Villa.
Union Villa. THAT'S the pizza I grew up on. I went back a couple of years ago and got 2 pizzas for my son. They were supposed to BOTH be for him. We killed them together. In the car. Sitting in a parking lot. Sharing his soda.
In 40+ years, the recipe has NOT changed. It tasted the same as it did when I was a little kid. Shocking! So many places change and then the crust or the sauce or process change (see below). Not Union Villa. They knew they had a good formula and stuck with it.
My wife's family swears by that place. I do NOT understand what people see in that pizza. Middle of the road at best.
Town Spa pre-2010 or so was amazing. Then they decided to automate most of the pizza making. Crust isn't as crisp. They did SOMETHING to the sauce. They make a minor fortune, but it's not the same pizza that I grew up on. Damn. Taking my wife out for 2 greek salads and a cheese pizza for dinner. Those days are gone.
. I hear you can ask for the pizza crispy and it's 99% of the way there. If I have to ask for it to be good in the first place, I'm not going to go back.
