| - I have eaten a lot of pizza from Napoletan wood fired at Le Pizziolia(sp) in Mt Lebanon to generic Pizza Hut/Dominos and tons of variations in between including various locations in Italy. Plus I make my own dough from scratch with Caputo 00 flour ( from Penn Mac) and know how to let it work and gain flavor over 3 days. That being said, I find this pizza variation a little above average for quality but a total bargain pricewise for the size of the pizza you receive. Mine was $14.50 for medium, two toppings, extra cheese and would easily feed 5 or 6 people or 3 teenage males. Slicing all sizes into 8 pieces just is wierd to me......there is no good reason for it and it just causes extra work when you get it home. Holding a full slice may work for guys, don't think most women are up for that messy challenge as the pizza drips oil.
Toppings are sparse to me....a little below norm and the sausage is nothing great. Again, since i make my own sausage from scratch, I have pretty high standards. The best thing you can say about the sausage is that it is not the little peas sized stuff a lot of places use. The sauce is not objectionable but not remarkable either as I am sure it comes straight from a can. The cheese is good quality. I asked for extra but to me, it was not as much as I expected.
I think Conforti's (ex-Vincents) near the Giant Eagle in NHT is superior to this for two reasons, quality and taste of dough (a sourdough style with huge fluffy bubbles on the crust) and quantity and quality of toppings (put on by the handful). The sausage used at Conforti's and Vincent's is bulk by big chunks and had good basic but strong anise flavoring, you do pay a huge premium for Conforti's compared to run of the mill places. Confortis also does not deliver like this place does not.
This prodiuct should satisfy those with the craving for New York style thin pizza. I am not sure I would drive miles for it like many who have reviewed it here. I drove miles for Vincents in Forrest Hills for years even though he smoked while making your pizza and had a loaded revolver on the counter beside him.
This place is a true one person operation, so keep that in mind when ordering. No frills here.
Don't bother to look at the "menu" posted here....it is obsolete.......this is a thin pizza place period. I aksed for Sicilian thick crust and he said he was "out". No sandwiches, no wings, no salads.
