| - Ordered from Joe & Pie Cafe for the first time tonight. In an area that is filled with pizza delivery restaurants we like to try the new places to see how they compare....especially when they are close to some of the best pizza places in the South Hills area ( Campeti's, Fiores, Betos, Mineos) I have to say that we were pleasantly surprised. The pizza was good- I liked the sweetness of the sauce,although I thought it could have used more on the pizza...it was good in the middle,but they didn't sauce it the whole way around. The pepperoni and onions were in literally every bite which was perfect and as someone who always has to crisp up their pizza in the oven- even when freshly delivered- I didn't need to tonight, the crust was well cooked and everything was hot. We also tried the steak and Italian hoagies. The steak did not have a lot of meat on it and when you split the half hoagie in half, one side got mostly bread...other than that it wasn't bad, just a little below average. My suggestion, make a deluxe steak version and put grilled onions, mushrooms and red peppers on it--then you would have an above average steak hoagie and would compete with Campeti and Betos....they advertised mushrooms on it, but I didn't see any and it also needed more cheese which was also advertised as on it and there was very little. The Italian hoagie was good..no complaints. We also ordered mild wings which we didn't really like...there was very little sauce on them and no crispness to them at all. I wouldn't order wings from there again. That being said, we will definitely order pizza and hoagies again and look forward to trying some of the other menu items. Because of the area you are located in and all the competitors...Joe & Pie really needs to do something to stand out as one of the best....I think they could get there and be among the Camps, Fiores, Betos level with delivery-- which none of those have. We got some dipping sauces too...$1.00 for a dipping sauce is a little expensive, the homemade ranch was good...but I think we will forgo them next time and save the 3.00 we spent on 3-2 oz solo cups of ranch & garlic butter. It might be nice to include one or 2 with the pizza as most places in the area do. The cost wasn't terrible, we had a 2 topping medium pizza, 2 half hoagies, and an order of 6 wings and 3 sauces on the side for around 35.00 including tax. My last suggestion is to have someone proof read your menu and websites...mushrooms on the menu are listed as "mashrooms" and hoagies are "hoogies" on the website. It just looks more professional when the spelling is correct. We enjoyed our dinner, have plenty of leftovers for lunch tomorrow and we will probably order from them again. Welcome to the neighborhood.
