| - I really really really wanted to LOVE Pure Pizza. I love everything it stands for, with the local ingredients and the laid back vibe. I loved the servers, who were very down to earth and friendly. The only problem, we really did NOT love the pizza. :( The ground beef on my husband's pizza was very bland, even for someone of milder taste. The gluten free crust (which I know can be more difficult to make at times) was totally soggy and lacking in flavor as well.
Two things we did really love were the garlic knots (delicious! coated in real garlic and olive oil) and the salads. The salads were a good size, fresh, and full of delicious flavorful ingredients. They were basically the opposite of the pizza.
I'd consider coming here again, but only for the salads and appetizers and maybe a drink. Definitely not for the pizza.
At the end of the day, if I spend $15+ on a personal pizza, I expect it not only to have top notch ingredients, but to taste delicious too. Walking away from our meal (garlic knots, brussel spouts appetizer, two salads, two personal pizzas, and one beer each) we did not feel like what we got was worth the $90 bill.
If they work on the gluten free crust texture and the flavor of the meat, that would seriously improve things. The vibe of the place is phenomenal, as were the garlic knots and the marinara that came with the knots. The rest just paled in comparison.
