On my list of Tonys, Tony Sacco's ranks somewhere between Tony Danza and Tony Blair. That is to say good, but not great.
Stopped by on a Saturday night around 7:30 to pick up a pie to go. One of the great things about coal-oven pizza, is that it cooks in no time. From the time I placed my order with the bartender to the time he brought the box to me, no more than ten minutes had elapsed.
My pizza baseline is the margherita. I ordered a small ($12.95 if I recall) pie and waited for my pie. After it arrived, I took it home for further tasting.
One of my culinary pet peeves is pizza joints whose pizza does not fit in the box that they attempt to stuff it into. As you can see in the pic I posted, Two pieces of my pizza were bent in the boxing process. Unfortunate, but not a deal-breaker.
As for the taste of the pie, it was good. I thought the crust was pretty good. It had a nice flavor and some nice charring on the top of the crust. The sauce was okay. It wasn't bad, but it also wasn't "this tastes like they made it this morning" good. It was pretty neutral in all honesty. Ths mozz was good and I appreciated the fact that they chiffonade their basil.
It's nice to have a coal-oven pizza joint a little closer than Grimaldi's. I'll come back as I'd like to try their meatball pie, but I won't go out of my way.
