| - We spent a fun evening here with a few other Yelpers and had some really good pizza!
We tried the Johnny Power (sausage, leeks, spinach, mushrooms,squash & Parmesan on a sesame crust) and the Aristocrat (Tomato, Mozzarella, Garlic, Pesto, Arugula, Olive Oil & Parmesan) We met a new friend (Tracy) who shared some of her gluten free pizza with us as well - I believe it was the 1/2 Aristocrat and 1/2 into the wild - Check out Tracy M's review for more information on that! Check out my photos for more on prices of the pizza and their menu.
The Johnny Power is only on the Summer menu so please get in here and get it while you can.
I have to say, I absolutely AM more of a pizza traditionalist and the sesame crust threw me off and so did the oven but after we got our pizzas, they were DELICIOUS! It was about 7 minutes from order get our pizza and it was definitely the way we like pizza. The crust was thin and well done, the topping were all really flavourful and there is even some chilli oil on the side that you absolutely must have on your pizza. The selection of toppings were really fresh and that is a major plus in my books! The staff was friendly and the service was great.
Side note: if you like trufle oil, the 'Into the Wild' Is a must have.
We had a chance to meet one of the owners, Tim who went on to explain where the name of the restaurant came from - being True to the pizza but conversely being true to yourself by letting you go crazy and letting you top it with whatever the hell you want!!! I guess the customer IS always right :)
We asked about the tomatoes and we were told that they ar Stanislaus tomatoes which is an A+ in my books. Frank Pinello and all the other pizza greats of New York rave about these tomatoes.
Crust 4/5 - Thin crust and crispy bottom, delicious and flavourful airy base. outer crunch inner mmmm.
Toppings: 4.5/5 Really fresh and all soooo tasty.
Speed: 5/5
Service 5/5
We will definitely be back to True True. Thanks for a wonderful evening!
