Pizza D'Oro


A slice of the pepperoni, ham, mushroom, onion, and black olive pie from Pizza D'Oro.

About a year ago, we picked up pizza from Pizza D'Oro. Since it had been awhile and we couldn't remember any complaints about it, if we had them at all, we figured we'd visit again.

When we picked it up, we observed the sides of the box were open and the lid was taped down -- and suddenly we remembered it was just like previous pizza(s) we'd picked up from Pizza D'Oro:

The large pie is too large for the large box!

Tawnya opened the box for our approval and we quickly glanced at it, noting that no toppings requested were erroneously added or omitted.

We got the pie home and took a closer look:

There it is, crust edging nearly OUTSIDE the box!



Thin crust, thick pieces of ham, fresh mushrooms, pepperoni, diced onion and irregularly cut black olives. Hmm. Promising.

Pick up a slice and it was...limp. Damn. Rodney required a fork. I flipped the limp point up over the slice toward the crust and ate it that way, grease running down my hand.

Taste-wise it was alright, better than average, and it was evident the ingredients were fresh and quite possibly cut in-house.  For the price though, disappointing. This limp thing was $23!

I warmed a slice up for late breakfast in a skillet and it was MUCH better! Put some hmph in the crust.
