  • I've driven past Gasper's I don't know how many times thinking "I've gotta try that place". It's less than a mile from my house and I was a huge fan of Zest (the restaurant that previously occupied this space), but somehow never made it in. Until tonight. And I'm so glad I finally did. The atmosphere is a bit kitschy (Frank Sinatra music, cheesy decor, etc), but in an adorable sort of way. We started with the bruschetta, which was awesome-- very garlicky (which always earns points with me). We went for the margarita pizza and the flavors were fantastic. The sauce and cheese were perfect and the fresh basil added a nice subtle flavor-- exactly what pizza should taste like. My only minor qualm is with the texture-- like good wood fired pizza should be, the outer crust was crunchy and delicious. Unfortunately, the pizza was a bit soggy in the center-- probably from the oven not being hot enough. The owner, Maria, assured us that the oven gets up to 1000 degrees, so this may have just been a fluke, but still- it loses a star for that. The service was hit and miss. Our server was very friendly... when she was around, but she was often absent. It took a good 15 minutes to get a glass of wine once I'd ordered it, and the bar was not busy. She seemed very busy, and especially preoccupied with another table-- who we found out later seemed to be relatives or personal friends of hers. She wasn't lazy by any means-- we saw her buzzing around tables all night-- but other servers seemed idle. There appeared to be sufficient staff, but they weren't being utilized effectively for a busy Saturday night. We finished with the cheesecake, which Maria told us she'd made just that day and it was delicious. It wasn't as cold as I believe cheesecake should be, but this may have been because it hadn't been out of the oven long enough! All in all, it was a solidly satisfactory dining experience-- and since it's so close to our house and so reasonably priced, we'll definitely be back. The 4th and 5th stars are pending-- a more thoroughly cooked center to the pizza and better service and this place will be WINNING.
