| - I am a HUGE fan of eating at local restaurants so I was really excited to try this place!
My plan was to pick up a pizza for dinner on my way home from work. I then googled the address and realized it's closed from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. every weekday. Since they're open until 4 a.m., I thought to myself, well, I guess that's just the trade-off and I'll make this my post-bar munchie spot on the weekends (it's nice to have options besides Charlie's tacos!). I got home and excitedly told my husband we'd be having pizza for dinner from this place. I called about 8:05 to order a large pepperoni pizza, asked for my total and was told it would be $23. WHAT?!? $23!!! For a large pepperoni pizza? Well, I thought, if it's really good it'll be worth the price. When my husband finally came home with the pizza I was just so incredibly disappointed. First of all, the pizza didn't look at all appetizing. There were puddles of grease on top of the pepperonis. Grease is definitely an essential part of yummy pizza, but this just looked like it had grease poured over the top. The sauce was extremely oniony to the point where I just took one bite and couldn't eat any more (I don't even hate onions!) The rest of the family, unfortunately, felt the same and we were stuck with $23 in the trash and empty bellies. I then had to scramble to feed my extremely picky little children, which is never a fun mama task. Even they, who usually run around the house like maniacs when I tell them we're having pizza, set their slices down and pretended they were cars and played with them instead.
Like I said before, I am all for eating local, but when it makes sense. I ordered a pepperoni pizza, the simplest pizza that you would just expect to taste good and not only was it bad, but extremely overpriced in my opinion. Sad Phoenician here.
