Finally last night, with much planning we went and got in...I was so excited to finally try this place! That soon ended, Iwas deeply disappointed in our pizza last night. We ordered the "special" which was a white pizza with artichokes, spinach and red onion. While I understand the coal fired oven being very hot (1000 degrees I heard) they need to watch the pizzas better...our was mostly burned...and had that bitter burned taste. Not to mention while the other 14" pizzas were once price the "special" was $18....for a 14" pizza, that was burned....VERY disappointed. We sat at the "Chef's Table" and watch numerous pizzas come out...some clearly overcooked, some perfect. I will have to say, I would NOT recommend them. Thankfully there are plenty of other wood fired pizza places in Rochester to try.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778156593001251884.post-21326373262799158562011-09-12T08:35:52.202-04:002011-09-12T08:35:52.202-04:00That's quite surprising to me, but thanks for ...That's quite surprising to me, but thanks for sharing your experience.

Red sauce covered with canned tomato chunks totally overwhelmed any delicacy. Basil was unnoticable due to taste of canned tomatos. The crust was not thin or crisp- soggy from all the sauce and canned chunks of tomatos. I would have complained but was the guest of gracious hosts who had raved about the pizzas here. Ish. I would never recommend going here based on their interpretation of what should be a delicate taste experience of a real margherita piza.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778156593001251884.post-78609186837473547342011-03-01T09:10:03.658-05:002011-03-01T09:10:03.658-05:00The dough, I've read, comes from Baker St. Bak...The dough, I've read, comes from Baker St. Bakery.

We blogged our last experience there:<br />http://chusonchow.com/2009/08/can-anyone-duplicate-this-rochester-pizza/<br /><br />We travel for pizza, and if you do, too, you might want to come to Syracuse for NY Gianni's Bronx Style Pizza, 1428 Burnet Ave, Syracuse NY. It's the real deal. The crust is thin, though not as as thin as Tony D's, and there are few tables at which to enjoy eating it. It's essentially a take-out joint, but we always eat right there. We wish they had the same space and atmosphere as Tony D's. <br /><br />Our blog post on Gianni's pizza has gotten more rave reviews, by far, than any other post we've done: http://chusonchow.com/2010/02/ny-giannis-bronx-style-pizza/Lonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05646414809923211980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778156593001251884.post-28531804286246723612009-03-23T08:50:00.000-04:002009-03-23T08:50:00.000-04:00Thanks.
