Depends where the pizza is from,
I've eaten leftover pizza cold & nuked from various places (brands if store-bought) but ..............
I work in an Italian restaurant and our pizza is only good the first time ---- next day nuked or cold, it's nasty

I'm with a couple of others here, I love a cold leftover pizza breakfast and always plan ahead to have enough left over for it.

I hate cold pizza. I refuse to eat it. I can barely stand reheated pizza, and usually don't eat it, either. I prefer to shove as many pieces into my mouth as possible while it's still hot and fresh from the store, and whatever is leftover goes into the fridge where it is later eaten by my wife and daughter, or (more often) thrown away.
I DO enjoy reheated breadsticks. They are still reasonably tasty after being reheated (depending on the chain and type of breadstick).
My neighbors - they leave their pizza sitting around for weeks. Their fridge broke months ago, so they pick up pizza and beer almost every night. They'll leave pieces on the couch or the floor, then stumble across and eat them the next morning. Odd people.

Refrig it. But it has to be reheated, when I eat it. However I nuking it is nasty. I have found out that if I put it in the oven for about 10 minutes, it comes out almost as good as fresh.

I always order enough so that I have leftovers for the next day. Leftovers go in the fridge still in the box and then I nuke it the next day. My microwave actually has a pizza button on it that does a good job with re-heating pizza. Yummy!! I feel like ordering one now!

I live in a family of firefighters, and the "firehouse" method of reheating pizza is to put it in a cast iron skillet, covered, over low heat. The pizza will come out of the pan like it came out of the box.
My variation (to speed the process along) is to nuke it to get the cheese and toppings heated, and then put it in a covered skillet for a few minutes to get the crust nice and crispy. Works like a charm, and no oven.

The best kind of cold pizza (although not my favorite hot pizza) is Canadian bacon and pinapple. I don't usually eat the leftover pizza. I leave it for my kids to eat for lunch. But before I had kids...cold, straight from the fridge.
By the way, we have a name for leftovers in my house. It's "srevotfel." (Read it backwards.

Cold pizza is sheer ambrosia and I always order pizza with ample leftovers in mind. In fact, I just had pizza tonight and will be feasting on cold slices while watching football all weekend.

Leftover pizza? What's that? There is no such thing! Keep eating it 'til it's gone, I say.

Well of course reading this thread yesterday I had to order some.. especially with those pizza hut coupons in my mailbox... Tonight for supper, I put a few slices on a plate, put in oven on 325 for 10 minutes and it was actually very good, i'm impressed!!
BTW they were Triple Crown and Canadian.....2 large specialties... came out to $24 tho, that's the only bad thing about ordering pizza delivery...

Leftovers go in a ziplock bag, and into the fridge. Pizza keeps several days this way, whereas it dries out if stored in the box. If I'm in a rush, I'll eat the leftovers cold. Otherwise, I put it on a nonstick cookie sheet and re-heat it in the oven. The cheese and toppings reheat perfectly, and the crust gets nice and crispy. TF
