Mario's NY Pizza

I came here for 2 reasons. One by recommendation in a late night bar and also, by seeing the most perfect name for a pizza place on the Florida West Coast. 1. Weak, by all standards. Very doughy, no seasoning, not very photogenic. 2. Place was pretty slow with no one in there. 3. I grant you that some people may like the place, because I learnt from the past, people may like basic unseasoned food. 4. My rating is 6.6

No flop👍🏻, nice crisp.👍🏻 Cheese was mediocre 👎🏻 sauce was just ok but the crust was actually good in consistency and flavor. Try the garlic knots👍🏻👍🏻 this pizza would benefit from better cheese like bacio cheese, the pepperoni tasted cheap.

Might have been the leftovers from yesterday

Lots of grease. Crust didn’t taste hand tossed. Okay cheese

Call it a rookie score if you need to but it was on the fence and I just felt it didn’t deserve to start with a 6. Cheese slice-it was a good slice. Nice crisp, good sauce to cheese ratio. Not too much grease. Wish it had just a little more zip or tang to to it but overall good. Bonus slice- this was called “the butcher”. Jam packed with meats and melted cheese not only was the crust thicker to support the weight of the toppings but it had 0 flop. Again nice crisp. Flavors were good again just didn’t have that pop. It’s missing something.

Good pie. First slice had 2 inch flop. Not a lot of grease, second slice had a decent amount of flop. Good drinking pizza. If I’m in the area and craving pizza, i would come back. Wouldn’t drive 30 min plus.

Some of the best Pizza in St. Pete. Get the white pizza with tomatoes.

Good slice. No grease. Crisp crust.
