| - I'm actually a bit surprised at all the negative reviews on this place, but I do have to agree that long lines and inconsistent quality are the main culprits. However, whenever I'm in Vegas and anywhere near NY NY hotel, I try to make it to Sirrico's. But I don't necessarily come away buying a slice of pizza. Let me explain.
If you are absolutely craving any type of pizza and you see a long line, then by all means wait it out. But if there's no line, go to the counter and check out the pizza on display. Does the crust look pale and lifeless? Does the pizza look fresh? Or does it look like it's been sitting out for a couple hours, looking cold and limp? I don't know about you, but if I'm forking over $4-5 for a slice, and waiting in line, it'd better be worth it. I've had pizza in New York and in the east coast, and I know what I want.
The key is to get a slice that is piping hot, straight from the oven. Look for the crust to be slightly charred, and should look crispy. Sometimes you'll ask for a sausage or mushroom, and the dude will give you their wannabe "New York" attitude and say they don't have any. Just brush it off. It doesn't matter, make a small sacrifice and just take whatever type of pizza that just came from the oven. Wait if you have to. Usually it's pepperoni. They almost always have pepperoni.
