Linwood Inn Taphouse and Pizza

Great proportion of sauce and cheese. Crust was a little thicker than i expected but i enjoyed it. I got it to go but I’m looking forward to coming back and eating in the restaurant because they had a good variety of pizzas that sounded great as well as a good sports bar menu overall.

Staff was great, pizza was better, Dave got this one right

Solid pie. Not flavorful enough for elete status but I did enjoy. Good crisp crunch and crust. Distinct garlic taste. Overall good experience, good service, and very cool atmosphere. Check another one off the list!

Wanted to like this more. It was a great place with great friendly staff. But the pie for me was just ok . Crust was ok . Cheese was not the best . But the kicker was the excessive use of herbs . Just too much for my taste . I found Santillos to be over the top oregano as well . Maybe it’s that area . Not a bad pie but had higher hopes . Worth the try .

It’s just something about it it tastes soo good

Tasty pie. Great sauce and crust. Great hometown place!

Really good bar pie. Took me way too long to check this place out.

Served Nikola Jokić 🔥 in 10-12 minutes (had to order like Davey Pageviews) with a hard Linden Ave crisp and a slight Linden R.R. Station flop. First Bite Score: 8.0 The sauce is what other sauces dream of at night. Other sauces brag to their friends saying “I’m going to taste like like Linwood Inn’s sauce when I grow up. Damn near perfect if not for the overwhelming amount of FRESH oregano. The mozzarella is of ultra premium status with great salinity and well above average chew. The dough is decadent while remaining paper cut thin and fully cooked through. This is harder to accomplish on slightly thicker doughs. Undercarriage is impecable with the pro cornmeal enhancement. The ratio is sent from heaven, if heaven was fashioned after Napoli, Italia. The trio of ingredients seemed to work in concert with one another resulting in a wonderfully composed symphony of flavor, texture and execution. SUB SCORE: 8.4 SAUCE: flat out impecable, the only subtraction is for the overpowering fresh oregano. I applaud the fact they use fresh oregano but wish there was a tad more restraint. The viscosity is top class and the flavor is unmatched. MOZZARELLA: Superbad with great salinity and even better chew. If I had to bet, from the texture of the mozzarella, it is most likely made from scratch. DOUGH: The dough is magnificently constructed. The gluten is beautifully worked / cooked giving way to a masterful undercarriage and crust. The cornmeal bottom really ties the other elements together. RATIO: The ratio is what is taught at Pizza School. Totally brilliant. Summary: to wit: I ate three slices. This means that there was so much going on I had to keep eating to properly score this pizza. There is not many negative things to say about this place. The atmosphere is impeccable and the pizza matches. I’d lessen the oregano (which is only overpowering during the first few seconds of each bite) and nothing else. Maybe adjust the thickness but that’s about it. Service, wait time and finale result are all well above par. If you live within 30 minutes of this place, you should be here at least 12x a year. Final Score…

Ordered by the whole pie. Tangy sauce. Oregano stands out in the overall profile. Cooked really well. Light and thin. Cross between a bar pie and a football pie. Kudos on the dough.

Great pizza good crunch good sauce, had it cold and it was this good

Everything is amazing about the pizza, the place, and the people. Crust, sauce, and cheese are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.

Good crust, a little floppy on the inner portion but over all a real good slice, nice flavor in sauce

The pizza was good, but not amazing. Anything Dave rates in the 8s, I usually expect to be gold. This was a good pie, but crust was pretty weak and wasn’t super crispy. Still solid though and the inside is absolutely sick.

Some really good pizza and great people. Sit at bar and order a pie and beer and die and go to heaven. Place churns out some great pizza for a bar and looks like other food as well. They take pride in whatever they are doing

Very seasoned, great crust. Nice people!

This pie is one belt loop over from a traditional thin crust. It’s crunchy as hell, in fact! Good crust + just enough cheese. To me, the seasoning adds more than the sauce does. I’m fascinated that it has “grease taste” without “grease sop”. It’s light but super tasty. Fun environment, friendly people, and lots of big TVs. 8.2 that’s a review 🍕🍕🍕

Elite pizza joint right here. Crispy crust with great taste

Solid pie all around. Plenty of sauce and flavor with a crust that can support the goods.
