| - Never really seen a Papa Murphy's before moving to Surprise. There were a few in San Diego, but none real close to my house, and I never really had a desire to try them out. I've been here for 2 years and still never made it to this one here in Surprise. My buddy Kevin just moved to town, and asked me if I had ever been. This place is right up the street from his new house, and they have a flyer out that advertises "Any Large Pizza for $10.00 on Tuesdays". Sounded like a good deal, and it planted a seed in my brain. I needed to try this joint out. Always wanted to, not sure why I never did. Tonight was the night. Drove down, parked, and walked inside.
When I got in there, 3 people greeted me right away and were very eager to help me out. I told them that I had never been to a Papa Murphy's before and they all smiled and looked at each other. It was a little bit awkward, but they were super friendly after that first initial interaction. The guy explained how everything worked, all the sizes, costs etc. I decided to do a create my own pizza on their original crust. I went with red sauce, pepperoni and garlic (our usual go to order at most pizza places). You pay, they make your pizza, explain how to cook it, and you are out the door in less than 5 minutes. Here is how it was..........
Large Pepperoni and Garlic Pizza- Their are instructions included in the pizza. The pizza comes on this giant paper plate looking thing. The instructions are to bake it on the paper tray, for about 10 minutes, then check on it every 2 minutes after that. For a "crisp crust" they recommend you take it off the paper plate and put it directly on the oven rack after 10 minutes. We did that, but I would recommend removing that paper plate maybe 5 minutes in and have it cook directly on the oven rack for the remaining 12-15 minutes. The only complaint about this pizza was that the bottom dough was just a tad underdone once the cheese and crust on top were ready. Do that trick, and you are in for a treat!
I am usually a pizza snob, and only like certain types of pizza from certain places. I tend to eat at the same spots over and over once I find something good. I took a bite into this pizza, and was incredibly surprised at how good it was! It reminded me of my own home made pizzas that I do, but theirs was a little bit better! The cheese melted perfectly, the pepperonis were nice and crisp as well as a little spicy, there was plenty of chopped garlic, and the sauce was very tasty, too! The crust wasn't the most flavorful, and that bottom was just a tad underdone, but for the most part, this pizza was really good. Way better than any chain like Pizza Hut, Little Ceasars, Papa Johns, Dominos etc. I would choose to pick up a pizza here over those other places 99 out of 100 times! Think of it as a little more expensive frozen pizza you can get at the store, but 1,000,000 times tastier. It was a mighty fine pizza. I was impressed!
Overall, I was surprised at how much I liked it! It's super quick, inexpensive (Especially on Tuesdays...any Large Pizza is only $10.00) and pretty darn tasty after all is said and done. The employees were nice, they have deals online, twitter etc. and it's pretty close to the house. Can't wait to try out their other pizzas. If they are as close to as good as the one I had tonight, I will be happy and continue to come back!
