| - Just finished up a workout and was super hungry and craving pizza for some reason. I don't know any pizza places in the area (just moved here from out of state), so I jumped on yelp and found the highest rated pizza joint in my area. Luckily Natali's is only a mile from my apartment.
So I drove over and was a bit skeptical at first. It was in the right corner of the shopping plaza and at the front it said "Pizzeria" I wasn't sure if I was at the right place but decided to walk in and check it out. I walked in and saw the menu said Natali's so I knew we were in business. The shop is divided into two sections one for ordering/drink station and the other half is the dining area. I ended up ordering the Natali's special which had peperoni, sausage, bacon, green onions, mushrooms, red onion, and olives.
This is why I gave my 5 star rating:
Food:
Was up there with some of the best pizza I've eaten. The ingredients were fresh and flavorful, the consistency of the cheese was perfect and not overdone like some places and the tomato sauce was also on point. But I think the best part of the pizza was the crust and dough. The bottom of the pizza had the perfect texture in my opinion, it was the right combination of crunch with out being hard. The dough was fluffy and had good flavor, didn't taste like pre-made dough that was frozen.
Service: I came in about an hour before closing and I could clearly see the owners were tired. I forgot to mention the shop is owned by a couple, the wife takes the orders and handles the register, and the husband makes the pizzas I think. Both were very friendly despite from what I could tell had been a long day for them. Friendly attitude and answered my questions about the different sizes of pizza, certain toppings, and suggestions. I was eating alone so I asked what size they suggested, and went with the small for $15 dollars. I ended up only eating half so I took the other half home. Great deal if you think about, two good meals for $15. Pizza only took about 10 minutes to come out which was not a long wait at all and well worth it.
Ambiance:
Nothing fancy, but I like the decor. As you walk in you see to the left a Pittsburgh Steelers collection on the wall with a tv showing the NFL network. I liked it since I'm a football fan. The dining area is nice, a bit small but has a cozy home feeling to it. Clean and nice decor, no complaints. I sat there eating pizza and watching football, not a bad combo.
Overall I really liked the food and people that work here. They're a couple who opened this shop 2 years ago and are willing to have a conversation with you which is nice, I'm rooting for them. Highly recommend this place to anyone who is in the mood for really good pizza at a great price. Don't hesitate by the outside of the shop, just walk right through the door and get yourself some damn good pizza.
