My NYC pedigree has turned me into an over critical pizza snob who will usually only indulge when visiting family. Cleveland pizza is a weird variation and I don't enjoy many places even though I have become accepting of the Appalachian Hillbilly style. Crostata's is good although it is more of an authentic Neapolitan pizza. I prefer the NY style above all. Marotta's has flown under the radar for quite a while and when I heard that it is NY style I knew that I had to try. The only other NY pizzas I can think of are Vincenza's, Capri, Sweet Basil and Bucci Brick Oven and am not too fond of them. Vincenza's has awkward business hours, Capri is glorified mall pizza with a weird overuse of garlic, Sweet Basil and Bucci's both miss the mark somehow. Marotta's seems to be truest to the style and taste. If this were in NYC I wouldn't eat there. We are 500 miles away so it gets the pass. It reminds me of an NY pizza one may find in Florida. The taste is not exact. The sauce is decent and the cheese is good enough. My main gripe is with the crust. I am starting to think the whole idea of the chemical composition of NYC public water may play a huge role in the dough for pizza. The crust is a little too chewy and does not break easily when bitten. I also prefer the crust to have char without being burnt. It is a fine line to walk. Maybe it is the oven temperature. I will request well done next time and try my luck. Overall, this is a good substitute for the real. I encourage anybody who loves NY pizza to give Marotta's a try. People always gripe about the hours of Vincenza's and this solves that issue. $10 for a regular cheese pizza is the nice price.
