			So what you're looking for is a Greek-style pizza, then?
 Manie's on 17th Ave SW (Mount Royal Village)
 Lorenzo's on 17th (close to 4th) (has a few different crust options)
 Niko's on 11th St. (down from Galaxie Diner)
 4th St. Pizza in Mission
 Volo's in Bankview (I think it's Bankview) also does a thicker pizza.

			Nick's or Matador are a little farther in the NW but they could check the boxes for you.

			I don't know what it is, but there's something about Volo's that I don't care for.  It's fine, but I don't find it great.

It isn't for everybody but its hard to find greek style places much better.

Yeah, reading comprehension fail on my part. For thick pizza it's Niko's, but everyone should try Gaga. The spinach, olive, prosciutto and figs is my favourite.

I'll throw another vote in for Volos.
