| - This just opened in the place of the old Pizza Sola on Center Ave in East Liberty. They did put some work into the interior, cleaning and upgrading quite a bit. They also brought the menu from the Oakland location on 5th Ave.
I stopped in for lunch and ordered 2 slices, pepperoni and sausage. It was actually not at all crowded for a 12:30 lunch. There were a few people eating at tables and only one other person in the line with me to order. As such, the turnaround time was quite exceptional. They also had a nice lunch selection of "by the slice" pizzas, split between traditional red and white styles. The pizza is good here. The sauce has a little spice to it, which I like (I'm not at all a fan of sweet sauces, Mineo's, I'm looking at you...). You also get a hint of that char taste, like its been cooked in a wood oven, which I also like.
Is it a high end pizza, no, but it's more than good enough for lunch, poker night, feed a bunch of kids or timber wolves, i'm too drunk to care. They also have gluten free pizza for those that are intolerant, or just avoiding it.
Last point, and only because I am a geek, they have a tablet based register system that spins around to sign and request an electronic receipt (email, text, etc). Pretty cool stuff that should accelerate things when the lines are longer.
