I first dined at Matador when it was about 1/3 of its current size, shortly after it opened. Way back then, it was my go-to with my friends after school to share a pizza.
Fast forward many decades and I am back! The decor has changed, the menu hasn't changed much and the food is exactly how I remember it. This is not artisan, Neopolitan style pizza - this has a thick, soft bready crust, a mildly tangy sauce and more cheese and toppings than your arteries will appreciate. They are famous for their lasagna as well - which again is smothered in gobs of gooey cheese.
The menu includes other pastas, steaks and some Greek favourites.
The service is friendly and efficient and the restaurant full of many generations of regulars. I don't eat a tremendous amount of this type of pizza, but when I am craving a thicker crust and tons of cheese, Matador is the only place that I will consider.
