| - Uncle Joe's pizza has just become my favorite place to get a New York Style of pizza (AKA Thin Crust) in LV.
LOCATED in downtown LV in the newer portion of Fremont Street past the light show experience and across Insert Coins.
Their PIZZA has all the quality's of a thin crust that I love. First, they use just the right amounts of cheese. Let me explain what the right amount of cheese is to me. Other pizza joints will use too little, making the cheese blanket too thin which in turn will cause the tomato sauce to over power, or they will put too much turning the cheese almost to a glue like texture. Here, they use the perfect balance. Second, the crust. OMG the crust the crust. The crust here is light and crispy. If I had to describe it, I would say somewhat similar to a thick potato chip. But not to crispy where it's tough like cardboard either. In comparison to others, most other thin crust pizzas have very soft crust which makes it limp. Which is why you have to fold the pizza in half before you eat it. Now I know what your thinking, that's the way pizza is supposed to be and its nostalgic to eat it like that and so on...and your right but this crust is pretty good too. Last but not least, the pepperoni was crispy like bacon and had the right spice to my liking. The pizza has just the right amount of grease/oil to it but definitely not overflowing.
PRICE is excellent. You can purchase a pretty decent size slice for around 3 to 4 bucks or the whole pie.
The ENVIRONMENT here is small with only a few tables. So if there is no seats then its best to take your slice to go.
SERVICE here is good. They don't smile at you when you enter but they do however greet you, take your order, quickly get your slice, and tell you good-bye on the way out. What more can you ask for.
Overall, I love this place. I will definitely make this place a must stop on every trip and If I lived in LV then I would be picking up pizza from these guys all the time.
