| - Had lunch there today with a friend. I've been looking for a good pizza place in the Sunnyslope area and a friend recommended the restaurant that used to be here, which, obviously, is no longer there. So Villa Italia it was. There were only a couple of other tables busy at about 1:30, I have no idea how busy they get for dinner.
As I said, I'm on a mission for good pizza. Sauce on 7th & Glendale sucks, Pat's didn't do it for me, and though Villa Italia isn't exactly what I'm looking for, it was pretty good. We got a large sausage and pepperoni and were happy with it. Bob and I have been eating pizza together for about 30 years, obviously not continuously since we can both easily move under our own power. Here, the pizza was quite good. The table cheese was refrigerated, something that quite surprised me. The pizza was thin, not excessively greasy, with very good flavor.
Overall, the pizza was built very well with good balance, and it was good enough to earn repeat business when I'm back in town. We really have no negatives to say, our experience was quite pleasant and with good food. Unfortunately all we had was the pizza, I'll try and go further afield in the menu the next time I get there.
They're a new restaurant, I wish them luck and success.
