It turns out that trying to find eats on Butler street after 10pm on a Tuesday is a major challenge. We went up and down Butler street trying to find some grub, but all the kitchens of our usual spots were closed. It was either beer for dinner or venture into unexplored late-night food territory. We noticed Pizza Amore as we drove by but wrote it off as another "probably only good while drunk" pizza joint, until I decided to Yelp it. 4.5 stars?! We had to give it a shot.
While we had beers next door at Remedy while waiting for the pizza to be made, we overheard some other beer drinkers raving about how amazing the homemade meatballs at Pizza Amore were. A totally out-of-the-blue coincidence. Good thing we had ordered meatballs on half of our pizza!
When we finally got the pizza, we were so pleasantly surprised at how much better it was than what we had expected based on the shop front. The crust was very tasty, just the right mixture of chewiness and crispiness, and just the right tinge of sweetness. The meatballs were indeed delicious, and they are in fact homemade (next time I'm trying the meatball hoagie). The pizza did not make it home. We ate the whole thing standing on the street and have returned for takeout several times since.
