If you are a lactarded pizza lover, you are already clued-in to the salad pizza: it's just like regular pizza, except without cheese, and with salad on top. At expensive restaurants, that would be a Pizza Margarita with salad toppings. We've spent many years inspecting the various salad pizzas around New York, and yesterday our research finally paid off: on a routine visit to Pie on 4th Avenue
we sampled two of their salad pizzas: a cooked version (left, with onions and mushrooms), and a fresh version (with lettuce and olive oil). Both were delicious, and far-and-away better than other salad pizzas we had sampled before. The key was the crust: it was thin, crunchy, with a slightly burnt undertone. If you are around Union Square today, you must try these pizzas. Only one drawback: slightly expensive-- the two slices above set us back $8 with an iced tea.

V & T's up by Columbia on amsterdam between 110th and 111th makes a mean salad pizza. It usually has cheese but you can ask for it without the cheese.

8 bucks? FUCK YOU PIE!
Yay for the good salad pizza! When you order a cheeseless pie, the results are usually disgusting. A lot of places compensate with extra sauce, thereby rendering it soupy and just confirming for your friends that your cheese avoidance is a terrible burden in life and they will never eat with you, if even talk to you, again. The other option is the cheese peel and lift, with possible transplant to a friend's slice. It's just too nip/tuck for most people.
no. it would be a pizza marinara with salad toppings(or as i would call it a disgusting mess). a pizza margarita has cheese tomato and basil.
If you're only mildly lactarded and can handle SOME cheese, check out Tottono's on the UES (2nd Ave b/t 80th/81st). If you order a margarita pie with very light cheese, you'll get perfection. Thin, crispy crust, with a delicious sauce, 1 or 2 small dots of fresh mozzarella, and the slightest sprinkling of parmigiano reggiano. It's amazing - you get a very nice balance of crunch, acidity, the creamy taste of the mozzarella, and the nuttiness of the parm. w/o it being overwhelming.
another recommended salad pizza (with cheese) - the Bianco at Todd English's Figs (at LaGuardia, or up in Boston)
Pizza is not pizza without cheese. I keep Lactaid on my table with the salt and pepper.
