Miro's Comments: Floppy. Is it weird that the word that comes to my mind is floppy.

Elizabeth's Comments:
Very cheesy! But, also very greasy a little worried about it slipping off.

Miro's Comments: I smell herbs. Real live herbs. I forgot what they smell like on delivery pizza. Not sure Elizabeth is smelling them. She just went in for like her 5th smell.

Elizabeth's Comments:
Cheese & faint hints of spice - not at all as greasy smelling as it looks

Not bad for delivery. Pretty bad for a place 2 blocks from us

Elizabeth's Comments:
Warm, but disappointing for coming from SO CLOSE TO OUR HOUSE!

Miro's Comments:
A little thin on the cheese and not much flavor

Elizabeth's Comments:
I'm torn. There is a lot of it, but, it's very greasy and it's got a crumbly texture to it.

Miro's Comments:
That's where those herbs were hiding. I don't care if it's from a can or not.
I like it

Elizabeth's Comments:
Oregano! I taste an actual spice I can name! It's not generic "spice." That said, the tomato part is rather thin, as is the coating of sauce in general.

Miro's Comments:
It was pretty floppy in the middle, but that's fine. The edges are doughy
where I was yearning for some snap. If a pie is going to be this doughy, the
crust better have really well developed flavor.

Elizabeth's Comments:
Wimpy. This pizza does not stand up on it's own, the grease means you need to fold over the slice to eat it but it has a nice, clean, fresh taste to it that is different than the frozen crusts we usually get.

Miro's Comments:
Benefits from a flavorful sauce and good size, but suffers from the lack of
flavor and volume on the cheese. I think a touch longer in the oven would be
more to my taste.

Elizabeth's Comments:
Really good for being really greasy. I wish the cheese was smoother and there was a bit more sauce.

Miro's Comments:
This is one of those pizzas where price makes all the difference. At a buck
less it would be a steal.

Elizabeth's Comments:
If this place is open late, it's probably dangerous to know it exists for
those walks home from ... ummmm ... studying when all you want is a greasy slice of pizza.
