| - I hate to disagree with so many of my fellow yelpers, but Montesano's does not live up to the internet hype. This pizza is NOT the best pizza in town. Actually, it's closer to the top 10 WORST slices of pizza I have had in Vegas.
I placed an order for pick-up: one large margherita pizza, one gluten free crust pizza with pineapple and peppers, one order of chicken fingers with fries and when we arrived, we added one of those stuffed garlic knots to our order because it was glaring at me through the glass deli case.
The margherita pizza was bland, chewy and doughy in the worst possible way. The sauce was either not present or not flavorful enough to notice and there were slices of tomatoes layered on top of the pizza. These tomato slices made the pizza even worse because they created a soggy texture on the pizza that really threw me off. The cheese wasn't impressive and definitely didn't taste as fresh as some of the authentic Italian/east coast style pizza I have had around town. I was not impressed. I couldn't even finish one slice - that's how much I did not enjoy the pizza. Bland, flavorless, soggy and forgettable.
The chicken fingers were standard. Nothing special. There was not enough hot sauce for my liking, but that is personal preference.
The gluten free crust didn't impress my GF friend, who said it tasted like she was eating a brick. Bummer!
I give this place two stars because the gentleman who answered the phone and took my order was extremely friendly and made me laugh a bunch while I was ordering. The other star is for the stuffed garlic knot that we added to our order. It was pretty good - really soft and chewy (in the right way) with great, flavorful, authentic marinara sauce (they should use THIS on the pizza) and lots of garlic flavor (I love garlic!).
The man who took my order - wonderful. The girl working the front of the store and taking orders/payments for pick-up orders - NOT so wonderful. Is it really that difficult to put a smile on your face a greet a customer when they walk in the door rather than standing around and allowing 5 minutes pass before you even say a word to the customer?
Do yourself a favor. If you're on this side of town and you are craving consistently good pizza - go to Grimaldi's. At least you know you're going to get something great and tasty for about the same price - probably even a little less.
