| - We went to Al's Pizza last night to give it a try since we had a coupon. I expected just another pizza place, but Al's Pizza completely surprised me. Immediately upon entering, I grew fond of the place. They gutted and changed the entire look of the place from its last restaurant incarnation. It's decorated in a retro modern fashion, a la Mad Men (or Big View Diner for a local reference).
We got a great, big, comfortable booth. The menus were quite large...and heavy. They have an extreme variety of options; there's something for everyone. From apps to sandwiches to salads to calzones to pasta to, finally, pizza. Everything looked and sounded so wonderful, and offered at reasonable prices.
This time around, we opted for two extra large (16") pizzas for our party of five. We tried Al's White Chicken Florentine pizza and the Barbecue Chicken pizza. Both were delicious, but I especially enjoyed the florentine one. It was so creamy, cheesy, and full of flavor. And the two XL pizzas were "just enough" for the five of us.
I know it sounds like they're paying me to write this review, but I was just all around impressed by everything there from the decor to the service to the food. We'll definitely be back, coupon or no coupon!
