I'm a crazy enough pizza fan to have built my own wood burning oven in the backyard. Suffice it to say, it is a lot of work making your own pies. I've been wanting to try Lamp out for awhile. We had the tessoro pie and thought it was delicious. I'm all about flavor in the dough, and I got hints of the delicious dough about every other bite. The most flavorful part for me was just before you hit the crust, the flavor of the dough pops in your mouth. And the sauce is nice and bright. The salted carmel gelato was great as well, along with the cookies that accompany it.
Best of all, the owner Matt, is super friendly, loves to make pizza and it shows. We had great conversation about pizza, toppings, sauces, dough, etc all while he kept cranking out the pies. Many of the pizza shops in town, the owner isn't around or not working the oven. If one opens a pizza shop cause they love pizza, I expect that owner to be making the pies, since I believe it's most critical. You can't hand over the reins to the dough, pizza, oven to some employee who doesn' thave the feel of the dough, or understand how to cook the pizzas properly.
