| - We had been wanting to go here for quite some time but when we found ourselves out and about and hungry, always forgot about it. Finally stopped one day in between lunch and dinner on a Sunday and it was empty inside. I liked reading about the history on the wall and found out that one of the founders founded Romeo's, another favorite pizza joint of mine. I also liked that the pizzas are a somewhat small size and thin but priced right--around $8 before you get topping-crazy, should you decide to do so. My husband and I like totally different styles of pizza--he's all about the various meats and untraditional sauce, whereas I love regular pizza sauce and pepperoni and mushrooms. Here, we both got what we wanted without spending $30 on two medium pizzas like we would elsewhere.
The pizzas were cooked nicely and very crisp--not doughy and thick so I wouldn't recommend it here if that's the style of pizza you're looking for. They also had a nice wood fired taste with a little brown without being burnt. I had traditional cheese pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms, and for as thin as it was, it was definitely on the greasier side. He had some sort of Tuscan pizza with a creamy ranch sauce, potatoes, chorizo, and onions on it. We both had about half leftover when we were full, even though it was thin pizza. I saw the garlic sauce when checking out and added that on for 70 cents hoping it'd be like Papa John's garlic dipping sauce, but it wasn't quite the same.
All in all, good place to come if you're with family or friends and you all like different styles of pizza or toppings. Everyone can get what they want without paying a fortune, and it's made fresh right in front of you!
