| - 46 reviews and I can't believe this food was given 4 stars. I will start off by saying the staff was very nice and courteous and the place itself was average. Normal pizza spot. Clean.
We had fried calamari, French fries, garlic knots, and a half plain/half margherita pizza.
Fried calamari barely had a crust, it was more of a skin. No crunch, all chew, and if it wasn't for my hot lemons I don't think I could have chewed all that frozen squid. It looked more baked then fried. Change the name to Baked Calamari.
The French fries were average frozen fries, little soggy, no crisp.
The bread balls, I mean garlic knots, were misshaped baked bread. Not buttery and had no garlic, parm cheese or parsley for anything close to be related to NY pizza (I only lived there for 21 years). Add some salt and it's closer to a NY Pretzel.
And finally, the pizza. The crust was awful. Like a sheet of paper. It was so thin it kept falling apart because the sauce was like a glue to the cheese and just ripped the crust. The cheese was the cheese you eat at Chuckie Cheeses. And the sauce. I would say it was closer to a sweet tomato jam. And I got to eat all of this cold food and dipping my baked calamari, soggy frozen French fries, and bread balls in this same jam! More like Rocco's frozen food & sandwich, jam & cheese shop.
And if you don't know what NY pizza is suppose to taste like, go to the hidden Pizza shop at the Cosmopolitan btwn the Sushi Place and Jaleo. It's the closest thing to NY pizza that I have had in Vegas and still is not that close to real NY pizza and also expensive but worth it.
