ahhhhh I don't really know. I have never been to crust tremont, I know it is beloved on yelp. I stopped in at this location at about 11:30am this week.... I got a slice of pepperoni.... I would recommend stopping in and giving it a try, so I did give it 4 stars. Cause the pizza is insane! The slice was bigger than my face. So that was funny. It came in its own normal sized pizza box. They had these huge pizzas ready. So it was amusing and unique in that way.
I went up to the counter and ordered my pizza slice... They had their two specialty pizzas of the day ready. Also I think they have like cheese pizza ready and you can add some toppings and they are like re-baked on maybe??... but I'm not really a fangirl of toppings being re-baked on as an after thought. It makes the pepperoni look like it... doesn't belong there. IDK. Like the "pepperoni" is an alien posing as pepperoni and waiting on the cheese. Like 'nuthin' wrong here!' - 'then why do you look like you don't belong??' But it does facilitate a quick slice which is a benefit. (Not saying anything was abnormal. Good quality and clean pizza and ingredients- just a prejudice of mine.)
Slice didn't take too long to bake. At first bite, pizza was average. A little later I went back to try again, and noticed the flavor profiles of the delicious sauce and the nuances of flavor in the well-textured crust. So then I was enjoying it much more. So I am sorta conflicted. Would like to go back and get a regular pizza baked fresh and see what happens.
Place is clean. Employees were polite. Quite a bit of parking. Good value. Slice was $5.50 but huge and filling. Crust - give it a try!
