This is my first experience with Pizza Di Roma.
Stopped by after noticing the sign listing them as open this past Tuesday evening (July 11th).
Ordered a pie to-go.
I was impressed with the quality of the pizza:
- Crust is a nice balance of crisp-chew.
- Sauce is really, really, nice with bright tomato flavor and nary a hint of sugar to be found (no offense to the native 'Sconnies, but it does seem as if you folks do like your 'za sauces on the sweet side).
- Amount and quality of the toppings were top-notch (pepperoni and sliced tomatoes).
They are using deck ovens to bake their pies, which is a check in their favor.
Service was pleasant, but you can tell they are still figuring things out. It will be interesting to see what they do with the cavernous space they acquired.
Also, the prices were actually reasonable. $12.13 final total for a 14" 2-topping authentic NY-style pie? Definitely one of the better non-chain pizza bargains I've seen in Madison.
Count me as a fan.
A welcome addition to the West side.
