| - Let me start by saying that since I heard about Pizza Cono almost two weeks ago, I have literally been talking about it nonstop. I've been telling everyone how excited I was to try a pizza cone. Everyone. I have been as giddy as a school girl (to an annoying degree. Just ask my boyfriend.)
Tonight was finally the night! Justin took me to Pizza Cono to try it out. There were two gentleman working behind the counter and they were super nice. It's clear that the restaurant is very new and still working out the kinks, the large menu they have posted has changed and we used a menu that was on a laptop. They will have printed menus soon. They have a a wide variety of different pizza cones to choose from, although they are still missing a few ingredients for some of the cones. I got a Pepperoni Cone (pepperoni, marinara & cheese) and Justin got the Mafia Cone (pepperoni, bacon, sausage, marinara & cheese) and they were both really good. The crust was warm, the cheese was melty (but not messy) and it was easy enough to eat. I think it would be nice to grab one and window shop on Murray or Forbes. They were made-to-order and took about 10 minutes to come out, which was a little longer than I expected and I do worry about the timing if they were busier.
For dessert, we each got a Nutella Cone, which was similar to the Pizza Cones, but was a puff pastry-eque cone filled with nutella and topped with whipped cream. It was so good. It was a little messy there at the end, but I didn't care. You could put Nutella on cardboard and I'd probably eat it.
The atmosphere is interesting. The decor does leave a little to be desired, but since they are just starting out, it doesn't bother me too much. They were playing some kick-ass music, I heard Adele, N*SYNC, and even some Shaggy. I was not mad about the music.
All in all, my Pizza Cono experience was everything I wanted it to be. I will definitely be back. I think this little company has a lot of potential and I can't wait to see them grow.
