| - Finally! A pizza place where you can customize your own pi - oh wait . . . haven't we already seen this before?
In all honesty, I guess there's really nothing wrong with Pieology. It blends in nicely amongst all of the other clichéd "fast casual" pizzerias that are about as played out as TV talent shows. But is that really a good thing?
What's especially weird about dining at Pieology, or at least this particular location, is that it's located directly across the street from Blaze. You can actually see it while sitting down, which makes this location less than ideal.
My girlfriend and I ordered a couple of pizzas. A standard pepperoni for me, while hers included a combination of meat. They do have a high-rise crust option, but the standard serving comes with the extremely flat and slightly crunchy crust that seem to be a staple of all of these joints.
In the end, I wouldn't necessarily say it was bad - I mean, I'll eat pizza any given day of the week. It's just not something that particularly stands out at anything special, especially when you can get something similar (and slightly better) just across the street.
We ate here on a Sunday afternoon and the place was completely dead - meaning that we were the only ones there. We watched multiple families pull into the parking lot, only to go to the Panda Express next door. Hell, even the manager went over for some Panda grub!
Maybe if this were a decade ago, I'd be singing more praises. But in present day, in a city that's completely oversaturated with these types of places, I just don't see Pieology as anything special.
Sorry!
