It was a trying time figuring where I should celebrate my birthday this year and thankfully my wonderful Yelpster homies (specifically Sabz) helped me decide on where I should eat and thus I chose Double Zero Pizza.
First of all I have to thank Double Zero Pizza for even letting me have my party of almost 20 that night because when my best friend called initially they weren't sure if they could have us all there that night due to the fact that there were so many other big parties in attendance. However, they did call back and it did work out that I could fit everyone in and that was that.
Walking down the stairs you kind of have the hustle and bustle pub feeling but once you start turning some corners you have a really intimate atmosphere. I really love restaurants where the lighting is dim but not too dim where you can't see your food. I loved how they positioned their lights to highlight the tables as well as the canvas posters on the walls. I also really liked the fact that the dividers/shelves are hollow and you can see through into the kitchen.
On the menu and over the phone they let us know ahead of time there would be a 18% gratuity however I'm not entirely sure if that gratuity was added or not because nothing on the bill reflected this and if it wasn't thumbs up to Double Zero Pizza for that.
Our server, I forget his name was attentive to us for having a fully booked restaurant with people everywhere, he tried his best to keep the water coming and any refills on any beverages we may have ordered and did not get any of the orders wrong either.
I ordered the Confit Chicken Pizza, which I felt like would be the best pizza to have on the menu as a first timer here. I am so glad I chose this pizza cause it was delicious. I loved the fact that the pizza is thin although what I disliked was the crust which I thought was a bit too much. The Confit Chicken pizza had fontina, mushrooms, and smoked pancetta on it.
Had the opportunity to steal a slice of my friends pizza and they had ordered the spinach and potato, added the bacon and voila it was a tastey piece of pizza. One of my other friends went a different direction and ordered the porkchop which he said was the best porkchop he has ever had. I will definitely be back here to try it out for myself. I also ordered a side of calamari which I enjoyed although I think it could have just used a little bit more of that sauce it comes with.
Really enjoyed this place, I'm going to definitely be back to try the other pizza's as well as anything else on the menu that looks just as appetizing. Thanks again Double Zero pizza!
