La Bella

OK, here we are on a Friday, the holidays are over, and we’re getting into a cold January. About to head to Miami tonight with Frankie for a little football camp. The start of our camp tour 2024. And I figured I’d get out into a little pizza review. Heard mixed reviews about this place, but I’m running out of places to go local, and I found this in Yonkers. Only 15 minutes from the house. It looks pretty good, the crust does look a little under done, but let’s give it a shot. Here we go. So I have to say, I’m pleasantly surprised. The undercarriage is great, the taste is good, the sauce the cheese ratio is good. This is your typical football, Pizza. The crust will throw you off, because, like I said, it looks underdone. But it’s totally not. Darken that crust up, and I’m sure you’ll get better reviews. That being said, Those other reviews that didn’t give it a high score are BS. Take it from a pro. Zero flop.

Worst pizza I’ve ever had. I’ve had bad pizza and I usually would eat bad pizza because it’s pretty hard to make inedible pizza but this was absolutely terrible. It came half cooked with a weird taste in the dough and was drowning in cheese. The cheese was not evenly spread and proportioned terribly and the sauce tasted worse than frozen pizza sauce

This is my first time visiting this spot in 12 years. I got two chicken slices, bbq on left and Buffalo on right. Both of these slices had decent chicken in both quality and amount, the Buffalo sauce had enough heat to my liking and the BBQ sauce had enough smoky sweetness to my liking, but what prevents me from giving the higher scores I normally give chicken pizza is a crust that looked and tasted doughy and underdone despite the pizza itself being cooked just fine. The 7.4 is kinda being nice.

Tried again and much better. Sauce was better nice crunch

Served magma hot in 5-6 minutes with a hard Yonkers crisp and zero flop. The sauce is very bland with absolutely no tang or seasoning. The mozzarella is average and extremely oily. The dough recipe is decent but a tad under salted. The slice was inedible due to the very long cook time and the disproportionate application of ingredients. The slice was very overcooked which kills all flavor and texture. This tases like burnt cheesy bread from Little Caesars. Pro Tip: they don’t have the most attentive or friendly staff. You have to monitor the cooking time, try to ask for the slice after a minute or two. This might help you avoid an experience like mine. P.S - don’t expect service with a smile.

Solid pizza spot in Yonkers. Chicken empanadas from here are very good. The plain slice was good nothing crazy, sometimes comes a little too crispy when they heat it up.
