Al Dente Pizzeria & Restaurant

Traditional “football pizza,” medium thickness on the dough, heavy on the cheese & sauce. No floppage at all, fantastically firm, decent crisp & very tasty dough that leads to a spectacularly crispy & crunchy crust. The sauce is sneaky outstanding, super sweet, a little tangy, it grows on you with each bite tasting better than the last, definitely carries the entire pie. The sauce ratio is balanced well with the cheese which is a little thickish, a tad oily, but has a nice melty, oozy flow, certainly better than basic. Overall, this is another humming fastball with some movement, catching corners on the plate. No doubt a terrific neighborhood pie, any-day-of-the-week type pizza. Despite exceeding expectations, it’s not really a travel pie but it’s about as good as local gets and left me pleasantly surprised.
