| - "Came For The Pretty Great Pizza but Stayed Longer For The Crazy Calzone"
Interesting location within the Ellis Island Casino. Not fancy, mostly locals. I went for dinner with my husband, but he had already eaten a few hours before. I on the other hand, had not eaten since breakfast. I ordered a small pepperoni/mushroom pizza. It took about 10-15 minutes, which seemed an eternity since I was so hungry.
It finally came. The cheese melted just right. It wasn't greasy and the crust was perfect. Pizza was cooked evenly. I took my first bite. It was so delicious. I asked my husband to try it. He did and also loved it. Pretty soon I could tell that one pizza would not cut it for the both of us, so we ordered a three cheese calzone. After 10 minutes, here comes the calzone accompanied by light tomato based sauce. It was huge. We had to wait about 5 minutes to cut into it, way too hot. The melted three cheese delicious stuffing was amazing. I think it is made of a blend of mozzarella, ricotta, and romano cheeses.
I have to say that the pizza was truly delicious, but the calzone was the very best one I have ever had. When in Vegas, please do stop by this Metro Pizza location. As mentioned above, it is definitely not fancy, but prices are fair and I believe cheaper than their other locations throughout Vegas. Also, a great place to people watch.
