| - Keeping secrets isn't nice. So, I am spreading the word about the so-called "secret pizza"! And the word is: Mmmmm. This pizza is damn good!
There is no visible sign from the street. If you don't know Adrian's is there, you'll drive right by. Luckily, I live half a block away, and I walk my dog past Adrian's daily! From the exterior, I'll admit, it looks sketch at best. There's a large gravel driveway that appears to be shared with the houses/apartments nearby. In fact, it kinda looks like Adrian's is housed in someone's garage.
The interior is equally unimpressive. It's hot. There's a lot of grey cement. And, the other reviews about unfriendly service? Oh yeah. They're right. BUT, my thinking was: Yelpers all raved about the food. Complaints were only about service. Us the pizza so tasty that Adrian's can still survive, sans attitude adjustments? I had to find out.
My boyfriend went for a classic pepperoni pizza. It was awesome. The crust was dense and doughy, and, in my opinion, the perfect middle ground between thin and pan. The sauce was slightly sweet, not overabundant, and seasoned well. Plenty of cheese, and high quality pepperoni, too!
I opted for the steak ranchero pizza - one of their many 'specialty' pies. It was freaking awesome. Their white sauce lent a nice buttery, garlicky flavor, they didn't skimp on cheese or shaved steak, and there were plenty o' fries on the pizza, too!
I'll definitely be back to try the pierogie pizza, and the Archy - steak, white sauce, mashed potatoes, cheese, and... excuse me, I'm drooling.
Nice selection of hoagies, calzones, strombolis, pastas, appetizer-ish finger food, and more. I foresee Adrian's becoming my go-to pizza place!
