However, if you are someone like me who isn't a left-over (especially pizza) kinda person, then you expect a killer slice, like Salvatore's (on Monroe Ave. in Clover Lanes) delivers. The reviews I've read of Amy Rose are average at best, but most of them involved small, one or two person orders.<br /><br />Your experience is valid but deviates too far from the average size order to account to be substantially relevant to what one or two people can expect from them (slices included niggaaaaa! lol).Kold$hadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03284055647443831701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778156593001251884.post-12404698355873470012010-03-29T10:00:46.486-04:002010-03-29T10:00:46.486-04:00Pizza Guy,

I held a Rochester-area cupcake review challenge on my blog and didn't care for some cupcakes and loved others. People were very passionate about their opinions in their comments, but I wasn't afraid to share my opinion on *my own personal blog*. If the frosting tasted like plastic, I wasn't going to sugar coat it and make everything rosy. I was sharing my PERSONAL experience about the flavors--again, very subjective.<br /><br />I love, love your blog. Most times I agreee, sometimes I do not (I do not like Nino's, for example). It is also important to remember that one week you might go in to a place and order a great pizza and get an "OK" one at the same venue the next week (this happens to me at Bay Goodman and Cam's, for example).<br /><br />KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14217627991205965906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778156593001251884.post-91416293120427316522010-03-29T08:25:11.102-04:002010-03-29T08:25:11.102-04:00Thanks for your thoughtful and extensive comments....Thanks for your thoughtful and extensive comments. I always welcome additional input on the places I've reviewed. And I'm well aware of the limitations of going in and getting a slice, which is why I added that line about trying Amy Rose again sometime.<br />That's also why this isn't a full-blown pizzeria review website so much as a true blog - just a record of my experiences trying a particular pizzeria on a given day, which may or may not be representative of that pizzeria overall.<br />If I were doing a "serious" review, of course, I'd try a place several times, get a full pie or two, in different styles, etc., before doing a review. And if I did that, there wouldn't be enough time in my lifetime to cover all the places around here. But I do want to try them all, so this is how I do it.<br />So the blog is what it is, and I hope that readers are aware of those limitations, and that they take them into consideration when reading my posts. Input from readers like yourself helps give a fuller picture of a pizzeria, so again, thank you for your comment.Pizza Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10280665603124117834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778156593001251884.post-58806522242066811092010-03-28T21:11:56.194-04:002010-03-28T21:11:56.194-04:00Hey Pizza Guy, Good write up, BUT...
You mentioned...Hey Pizza Guy, Good write up, BUT...<br />You mentioned that you "wouldn’t mind coming back to try a specialty pizza or to take out a pie. But on this occasion, the slices I got didn’t impress me too much." And that the "Next time I’m in the area, I’ll give Amy Rose another try..." Well, I would highly suggest you do. Judging a pizza parlor on it's slices is no way to evaluate a restaurant. Last Saturday my wife and I unexpectedly found ourselves with sixteen house guests, 4 friends from Virginia and my brothers family, including his inlaws, right at dinner time. We decided that the best thing to do on such short notice was to order pizza and subs. My daughter took everyones orders and phoned it into Amy Rose. Of course everyone wanted something different so it was a huge order. We got two sheet pizzas and 9 different subs. I didn't think there was any way they would get this order all right but I figured at least there was enough food in it that everyone would get something to eat. Well, they proved me wrong, the order was filled perfectly with each sub labeled with the exact items as per each order and the pizzas where made to perfection, just as she ordered them. Ok, so they got the orders right but how was the food? Everyone raved about the quality of their orders. Especially our friends from Virginia. One of the sheet pizzas was a simple cheese and pepperoni pizza. The crust was light and bubbly and the sauce was sweet and tasty. The cheese was thick and stretchy and the pepperoni was cooked perfectly. The second sheet was loaded. Cheese, pepperoni, sausage, ham, sweet peppers and onions. When I said loaded, I mean LOADED. This thing was heavyyy, and again, even with all those toppings, it was cooked perfecly. The subs followed suit... stuffed generously with meats, cheeses and veggies. The best part of this dinner, besides good friends and family of course, was that because they were so huge, there were plenty of leftovers... :-) I'll defiantly be going back to Amy Roses Pizza. Out of this world!!
