| - Delicious pizza, friendly service... and a DJ booth in a semi?!
Located in the Downtown Fremont scene, this pizza joint is a great addition to the downtown scene. The ATMOSPHERE inside is dimly lit, TVs scattered around the restaurant, with just enough class and sophistication to go with the wonderful smells of the vegetarian, prosciutto and ricotta pizzas that our table had ordered.
Tonight I attended my boyfriend's holiday work party. We had a separate room and the SERVICE was great. Constantly checked on by the staff, waters were always refilled and the servers made sure that we had everything we needed on hand. I wish I remembered their names, but all three were welcoming enough.
I believe we had a prefixed menu for our holiday party FOOD, and seriously? It was sooo yummy! Even the appetizers. We started off with Caesar salads, meatballs and sauteed green beans. Being pescatarian, I had to pass on the meatballs but I heard they were quite filling and savory. Our entrees included four different types of pizzas: prosciutto, ricotta, vegetarian pan pizza and a meat pan pizza. I only tried the vegetarian pan pizza, which was enough for me. The vegetarian was cheesy and crunchy on the top and edges, layered on a fluffy tomato-saucy bread. I loved the pan pizza. It was so fluffy (and filling), I probably could have eaten half and used the rest as a pillow to sleep it off into a pizza oblivion. The slices were large portions and I was only able to eat two.
For dessert, we had apple empanadas served with vanilla bean ice cream, and some sort of chocolate ice cream mousse cake thing. Not quite sure what it was exactly, but it was a sweet ending to the meal and hit the right notes. Rock on! Now I really could have slept on the fluffy pillowy pizza at this point. Pricing, I believe ranges from $6+ per slice. For the overall experience, I would say it's worth it. Would come back again when I'm in the area and looking for another great pizza experience.
