| - You know, I had written off Vincenzo's when they were in their old location, but with a move to Dormont and perhaps a change at the helm (?), something good, improved has come along with it as demonstrated by a recent delivered meal.
A fantastic and generous Pennysaver coupon deal got Kay and I two large pizzas and a whole Italian hoagie one lazy, worthless evening, and I couldn't find much to pout over.
There is a Pittsburgh-style pizza: Thick 'n doughy. However, Vincenzo's apparently has something to say about that, offering a pillowy, light-in-the-loafers crust that nearly floated out of the box. Both the mushroom/pepperoni and the pineapple/bacon pies we ordered were piled with fresh toppings. The fungi was fat. The cured meats were oily, sweet, piquant, and brackish. The fruit was succulent like that which falls off of Paradise's trees. The cheese/sauce tandem was almost akin to dessert. This was a rather successful pizza.
The hoagie was another winner, its juicy, tangy, crunchy fixings well-stuffed within a dissected and toasted bun, the grinder itself showing the world what subs should be, and they ain't being hawked by celebrities or a guy named Jared.
Ordering was a cinch, delivery was faster than a thought, and overall, Vincenzo's saved dinner.
I've even better such meals, but they are few in number. Order from Vincenzo's. 'Cause I said so!
