| - Was here for lunch not too far back. Ordered a pepperoni and mushroom. What I got was dissapointing.
With the majority of these pizza-fired joints that are popping up all over town, the crust is super thin, which can be good or bad depending on many other factors. This time, it was all wrong, the tomato sauce is so thin and runny that I would probably call it tomato juice, instead of tomato sauce. As such my thin crust was a soggy mess that had to be eaten with a fork. If you cant pick up pizza with your hands, what's the point? The other reason I had to eat it with a fork was that if you tried to pick it up, everything just slid off the pizza and the sauce became a drippy mess on your clothes.
To top it all off, the pizza was completely tasteless. I don't know how you can strip all the flavour out of pepperoni as it's a very potent flavour in itself. This pepperoni had no flavour, even when pulling it off the pizza and eating it by itself. How is that even possible?
There was almost no cheese. The mushrooms were abundant in contrast to all the other toppings. But again, tasteless. I guess mushrooms cost less than pepperoni or cheese, so fill it up with that instead? That's not pizza.
The worst part? I guess because it's the trendy part of Marda Loop the prices get increased by 25%. What is $12 at other places is $16 here.
The only saving grace (and the 2nd star for the review) was that they have Boylan's in the cooler. My drink was delicious.
Needless to say if I'm in the mood for pizza, I'll be going elsewhere.
