Had an hour between meetings and decided to finally try Pie Town. I'd heard mixed things but have a real appreciation for Peter's talents as a baker so I wanted to see for myself.
The restaurant is in a beautiful space - very contemporary and not at all your typical pizza place. This is a place to really relax and enjoy your meal - not really a kid-friendly place but a great New York/Boston/LA restaurant vibe.
The bar has a great selection of wines and has Harpoon on tap, a rarity but for a former New Englander much appreciated!
I started with the calamari - not something exceptional but a solid recreation of a standard. Moving on to the pizza, I really wanted to try a pizza with light toppings so that I could try the crust. I had a classic Margarita - in short, it was DIVINE! Great crust, a little chewy, excellent arsenal cheese, fresh basil. My only small critique is the sauce - it's too bland and doesn't come across as authentic. I would advise reformulating and making it a bit more spicy.
Service was very good, btw. Overall I would definitely go back.
