| - Dom Demarcos: Sadly 'twas Meh.
Firstly Obama ate here at some point in the past, everyone apparently knows that so consider yourself educated :) So this is the only other restaurant from a famous New York Pizza chain. It should be spectacular right? right?
Sadly no, I got thick crust pizza the "legendary" one. It was not great. Well, the crust itself was not great, the stuff on it (approx. 15% total pizza volume) was excellent. The crust was flavorless and spongy, like an angelfood cake. No thanks. The pepperoni, cheeses and sauce were excellent.
Also the service: I was drinking beer, because beer is delicious and everyone should always be doing this, and somehow this was a problem. We had a party of 10 and the soda drinkers were regularly refilled by a gentleman who had me understand that as a minor in our United States he could not bring me a beer. However our overage server was far more rare and apparently had a variety of macular degeneration that kept him from noticing an empty pint glass. When it did get refilled I asked for a "Deschutes Porter" and got a Mirror Pond. This is a bit like requesting "Big Momma's House 3" from Redbox and getting "The History of the Ku Klux Klan".
Also we had reservations for 9+3 small children. They sat us at a pub table. Lucky we have good kids who don't need strapped in.
Beer list was pretty solid, pizza wasn't altogether terrible, and the place was swanky. I wish I liked it more.
Tips on having a good experience: Order a thin crust pizza regardless of regular order, don't bring your children, and when you run out of beer stand on your chair and say "HEY CAN SOME MOTHER FUNSTER BRING ME A GODDAMN PORTER? THEY ARE BROWN AND COME FROM THE TAP LABELED "PORTER"!
