| - Went to Benny Fierro's on a quest to find the best pizza in South Side while I'm here for the summer. I knew the pizzas here were big, but seeing them in person still had me in awe. However, for me, when it comes to pizza, size matters not.
I started off with a cheese slice to get a taste of the bare necessities. The crust was thin and crispy, just how I like it. The cheese was nice and gooey, and the sauce had some good flavor. The only problem was that it could've used much more sauce. After finishing that slice, I was struggling to decide whether I wanted another since it was so filling. I figured I had to try something else, so I went with the pesto chicken pizza (which I think is a summer special). I was expecting some integration of pesto into the sauce, but it was simply a cheese slice topped with pesto chicken. The chicken was tasty and well cooked and was a nice addition to the pizza, but it would've been nice to have a bit more pesto.
Overall, the pizza was delicious and a contender for best pizza in South Side. The service was friendly, the prices were a bit high ($4-$5 a slice) but considering the size of each slice it's not that bad. I'd definitely go back to try some other options.
