| - Dom DeMarco's serves a great pizza. The crust was crispy but still tender. Black char in a few places which, for me, is perfection. The pepperoni was thick and small and full of flavor. If I based the review on pizza alone, it would get 5 stars, no doubt. So, What went wrong?
I had to ask twice for sweetener for my iced tea. By the time I received the sweetener the ice had melted and I had a glass of room temperature tea. The BLT salad was just OK. The dressing, if there was any, had no flavor. The Gorgonzola cheese was the only thing giving this salad any flavor. Not a big fan. But, Dom's isn't known for the salads, so I could forgive. The crispy garlic bread was good and it was crispy. Only 4 bucks so we definitely liked that. We also ordered a cannoli, imagine my surprise when it wasn't an authentic cannoli. It was not made with ricotta cheese. I'm guessing mascarpone. Whatever it was, it was disappointing. No hint of citrus, not enough chocolate chips. But, I will say this, for a fake cannoli, it was a good fake.
What really cost them 2 stars was the restaurant itself. It's dark inside. So dark that I saw at least 5 different tables using the flashlight app on their phone to read the menu. And logistically, the restaurant is a nightmare. The amount of waitstaff whizzing by our tables was head spinning. So much so, that I had a headache by the time we left. The bar is on the right side of the restaurant. The kitchen along the back wall. The drink station for the wait staff is in the very front right corner. The staff is constantly criss-crossing the restaurant. It is nonstop. Downright hectic. restaurant is in a storefront in a strip mall so, it's not the most ideal space and they definitely deserve a better, bigger space. And if you have to wait for a table, the wait area is so small people are literally standing next to you watching you eat. I felt as though we should have offered them a slice of pizza! I hope they move, because we decided we won't return, at least not during peak hours. It's why too overcrowded servers! I told my husband next time we can order the pizza to go and eat it in our car in the parking lot! We don't live close to Dom's and I think the pizza would lose that crispness if we took it all the way home.
So if you want a great, NY style pizza, this is the place to go and if you want to feel like you're eating it in the middle of Times Square, then you'll really love it. Looking for a nice, relaxing meal? Look somewhere else.
