Pizza Review
High end Miami pizza. Great crust all by itself. All in all, one of the top pizzas in Miami
Pizza Review
I’m surprised at how few reviews there are for such a trendy & fairly well-acclaimed joint. Perhaps the long lines and fickle hours are to blame? Closed Tues & Weds, 3 to 10pm on Sat & Sun, 5 to 10pm other days. I never solely rate pies other than cheese unless there are special circumstances; and I only rate squares if that’s the style the pizzeria is more known for over round pies, I also never rate pepperoni slices. But the O.G. Roni is the signature pizza here, so I wanted a crack at their best. The menu overall is fairly simple, not a ton of pizza options. Consisting of tomato, mozzarella, pepperoni, hot honey, basil & shredded pecorino romana, the O.G. Roni is a heavy pie but the dough is still light, airy & fluffy. Great crisp towards the crust but a tad mushy in the middle. The cheese is a creamy & tasty blend with solid sharp flavor. The sauce is more crushed tomatoes than a purée, somewhat watered down in flavor, sweet but lacking in spice; perhaps overwhelmed by the pepperoni & hot honey interfering with the potency of the tomato sauce. I’m not the biggest fan of pepperoni; in hindsight, I should have gone with a plain pie, even though I like this pizza but don’t love it. As a change of pace pie, it’s very good, a little pricey and not really worth long waits. As tasty as it was overall, I’m not traveling long distances for this pizza. If you’re a pepperoni lover, this is def worth a try; if not, there are better pizza spots in Miami.
