Now I consider myself a connosiour of pizza, having eaten it up and down the East Coast, from Boston to Philly to NYC to DC. When I moved to Las Vegas 8 years ago I pined for a slice of NYC pizza I'd eaten standing on the sidewalk so many times, but to no avail.
While Metro pizza is not NYC, but they make a solid pie. My wife and daughter hit this place up a couple weeks ago on a monday during their half off pizza (mon-thurs, 2:30-4:30pm. Yes I've been called a cheap bastard, and I consider it a complement). The place was half empty, and they sat us in a booth near the bar. We ordered the CIcero, a stuffed pizza with meatballs, ricotta and mozzerella and a kids spaghetti.
The service sucked. 45 minutes to make a pie and spaghetti in a half empty place? I've been in and out of this place in 45 mins when it was packed. The pizza was great, the spaghetti overcooked with watered down sauce. I could tell the bartender didn't like waiting tables, asked several times for things that never came and just gave up.
Would I go back? Hell yeah. Just wouldn't sit near the bar, and would never order anything off the kids menu again.
