| - I'll admit that I'm a bit hard on pizzerias. This town is severely lacking and when one stands up above average I will acknowledge it. This place is above the average Las Vegas pizzeria. The pie had a good flavor, the sauce is definitely better than most. The crust is very good as well. I've now ordered three times from this location. It has a lot of potential. There are things I really liked and things I'm not crazy about.
First and most obvious problem is that they are closed on Sunday. Are you f*&cking kidding me?? It's a pizzeria, closed on a Sunday. That's blasphemy. Football, pizza, wings, and beer. That's the way it is meant to be. Ok so with that initial disappointment aside let's move on.
If you want legit reviews, ignore the 5 star ones. They are bought and paid for because the owner will do whatever to get 5 star reviews. I'm not saying he actually gives money for em, but he will give away food and gift cards like it's water if he knows you're a Yelper. That doesn't really sit well with me. I thought I was alone till I read the other real reviews here. The pizza was good one out of the thee times I ordered (only after my bad review), and definitely in no way is a 5 star product. Don't be whores Yelpers!!
The first time I ordered everything was pretty good. The pie was a little undercooked for my taste but everything was ok. The second time was just awful. My pizza was very undercooked and the cheese was running everywhere, the calzone was also undercooked as in nearly raw.
So the third time I ordered everything was near perfect. I ordered a Sicilian and Garlic Knots. The Garlic Knots were similar to New York. It brought me back home the whole time I was devouring them. The Sicilian was definitely one of the best I've had in town. It was tasty and thick (refrain from the That's what she said for a moment.) It was also soft and had the perfect chewiness to it. It's a rectangle cut into 8 squares. In New York you usually get a square pizza that takes up an entire 16" box but here it is common to find them in this 8 slice rectangle. Which is fine, but I absolutely love the giant square style because you get those awesome center pieces which has no crust and is just cheesy goodness on every side. Just be prepared that you will probably have a longer wait if you order a Sicilian. The first time I tried to order I was told the wait was at least two hours (WTF?) and I was starving, so I ordered a regular pie. The next time I prepared myself and ordered early, it was delivered in an hour and a half which was very bearable considering I was expecting two hours.
Now they are pricey, but if the food is as good as the last time I ordered it, then it isn't too bad. After a few bumps along the way I could see this place having potential. They just need to work on their consistency. It's holding me back from being a regular here.
