| - Just discovered this place yesterday and decided to eat an early dinner here. We arrived around 4:30, were immediately seated as there were only two other diners in the restaurant.
After six months of living in Arizona one of our main food goals was just to find a local pizzeria that served good authentic New York style pizza. God has it been a challenge. While the place isn't fancy in decor, more no frills and not located in a fancy strip mall, this place sure delivered a great pie.
We started with a combo order of breaded zucchini and mushrooms and ordered a small meat lovers pie. The appetizer combo came out steaming hot, as in temperature, with the zucchini being nicely breaded and the mushrooms over breaded (some pieces almost burnt). It was a good starter and super filling. As far as taste, the breading wasn't overly salty or flavored, it was just a okay.
Now let's to the pie. The pie arrived, still hot but the crust was cooling down. Now when I talk about something being cool I'm referring to the firmness of the crust with all the toppings on it. There is nothing worst then eating a slice and the crust and bottom starts falling apart. The crust on this pie was just perfect.
As far as the toppings, while I always love to order a meat lovers pie, I liked the nice amount of onions and bell peppers the were also scattered on the pie. Not too much but just the right amount. The only thing that could of been improved were the meatball toppings which came out a little burnt, just like a few of the breaded mushrooms but overall the taste of the pie was 4.0 out of 5 stars. Yummy.
Service was nice, owner was nice enough and this place is on our list to return. We are def coming coming back here to try the lunch menu as it was nicely priced with not only pizza deals but also spaghetti and sandwiches.
