SAN DIEGO -- Indecision strikes fast and furiously when stepping into Jersey Joe’s Pizzeria in North Park, where customers are greeted by a kaleidoscopic display of pies that demonstrate New Jersey is a land of multiple pizza styles.

“Everything’s so beautiful,” my companion said, gushing when encountering for the first time Jersey’s Joe’s imposing showcase of golden-crusted discs and squares, blanketed with ingredients like bright-red plum tomatoes, fried eggplant, leafy basil and even ziti pasta tubes poking out from their mozzarella mantles.
