Pizza Review
Pizza Review
You’ll want to read the entire review! So first impressions: place is big and good atmosphere, so far so good. Then i get to the hostess, she’s not pleasant and took her a long time to get seated, to be fair, it was Friday around 5:15p. I finally order their Pepperoni 12’ after some time, the pizza arrives and i see it has plenty of char burns, which im not a fan of. Now! Dave likes this style of pizza, Im not a fan, so take that in consideration, that’s just not my thing. Couldn’t get a real sense of the sauce and i felt it could have used a bit more cheese. No flop! At all! Crust was charred as you can see in the pic, so it was not enjoyable for me, felt a bit tough, i like my crust to be softer. Ok so, about 2/3s of the pizza in, i get up to use the restroom, when i come back, the diligent bus-boy has piled up my table including pizza with tableware on top, im not even done with it! I told the guy i was still enjoying my pizza, and felt a bit frustrated, it took me one minute to go and come back, i sat right next to the bathrooms. The waiter sees this and comes over to apologize (I appreciated that), then soon after the restaurant manager comes over and i felt the sincerity in her apology and tells me she took care of my tab and offers to bake me a new pie, she didn’t have to do that so I thanked her. This is where i have to separate the pizza score from the restaurant and experience. They handled the situation like a 5 star, Michelin restaurant would, quick, sincere and with prompt proper resolution, that was above my expectations, they deserve praise and i do appreciate how they handled it: a 10/10. Now the pizza! I have to score the pie on its own, and i ,as i said earlier, maybe new haven style pizza is just not my thing! Dave is very particular about how he likes his pizza, and he gave it a high score. All that said, I drove 45 minutes to this place and felt the pie was overrated, but the establishment felt like a great family oriented joint. I would recommend visiting for the experience at least once.
