| - While not magical, it is something nice that comes out of the ovens at Magic Oven. Having ordered for delivery for clients a couple times, I thought it a good idea to see what the in person atmosphere is like. Upon entering, the lights are dim and the tables look like they have been well used. Not to say the place was not clean, because the tables and floors were quite clean for a place that looks like it is more run-down than it is. Although from what surrounds the restaurant it looks like it will be a sketchy place, all that sketchiness seems to remain outside the doors.
It took a while for the waitress to come over to bring the menus over and to take our drink orders. The reason for this was she was also the bartender and seemed the be the only person on the floor at 7:00pm on a Tuesday evening. Their selection was really slim on beers, so I decided to go with an organic root beer...at least beer was in the name! When the drinks eventually came and she was ready to take our order I was very pleasantly surprised with the organic root beer which was clear and tasted amazing. (If anyone knows where I can buy organic root beer I would be very interested!) I ordered the Meaty Magic pizza and the vegetarian I was with ordered the Gourmet Veggie Magic pizza. Just a fore-warning to everyone, the prices are not exactly cheap with the meat option being $18 for a 10" and $28 for a 16"; with this in mind I recommend going on Wednesday nights from 5-9 when they have all you can eat pizza for I believe $15.
The food came out quicker than the time it took for get to the point that we ordered, which was both nice and a little weary at the same time. The pizzas looked and smelled good, but less than 15 minutes for pizza when it takes forever to get a refill is a little bit of a red flag. After the first bite we realized that it was an unjustified red flag as the pizza was in fact and very tasty pizza. The crust was crispy the way I like and the organic toppings did taste better than their non-organic counterparts. The sauce was a little high in salt, but overall the pizza was really tasty. My companion said the grilled eggplant and garlic zucchini were really fresh, but the roasted peppers were too over-cooked. Getting our plates cleared so we could order dessert was as much of a chore as getting service in the first place, but I still ordered the Organic Blackout Chocolate Cake with Spiced Molten Chocolate Sauce because I can't pass up on chocolate.
With everything being organic so far I thought I was safe, but chocolate let me down for the first time in a very long time. The cake itself was dry and way too much cocoa was used in the mix. A dry cocoa taste was left in my mouth with each bite, and it was not very pleasant. I don't remember the last time I didn't finish a piece of chocolate cake, but I did not finish that slice. It wasn't too big and I wasn't too full, it just tasted off and that is obviously not good. The meal itself was really good and I will definitely keep ordering from them, but the service and the dessert also stick in my mind quite a bit and that will make me think twice about a recommendation...
