    penne pasta with homemade meatballs
    Lizbeth H.

    was a little nervous because we came when yelp said we had 45 min to close. just as we pulled in they were taking their outdoor signs down but they told us come on in and order! we got the pepperoni monster slice ($5.50) and penne pasta w 2 homemade meatballs ($11) lol, i will let the pic speak for itself. it was HUGE!! meatballs tasted great, pasta sauce was a little runny for my liking but phenomenal experience. after we ordered we sat outside & they quickly brought our food to us so we could start digging in!

    Their enormous pizzas!

    I was excited to see that Crust had opened a second location closer to downtown and much closer to my work! Their original location is in Tremont. The pizza restaurant serves enormous pizzas as well as pizzas by the slice. It's a quick and delicious lunch. You can order a whole pizza or customize a slice or two. They have many different topics from specialty cheeses to meats and fresh veggies. One of the best things about the pizza is the crust. It's soft and flavorful. Crust also offers different salads and pasta. If you're looking for a flavorful, quick and inexpensive lunch Crust is your place!

    Huge Slice. (Lemon rosemary chicken)

    This is not your run of the mill pizza shop. You can tell they really care about their products, everything is fresh, they take the time to hand make all their pizza dough, bread and gnocchi. The staff is very freindly and food is quick. We ordered their longer than your arm lemon rosemary chicken pizza slice. (garlic roasted potato, fresh rosemary, mozz, tomatoes, feta, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, and black pepper). The combination of flavors was great. The chicken was moist, loved the fragrance of the rosemary and the dough was amazing. Roasted eggplant sub. (Baby arugala, roasted tomatoes, pecorino romano, smoked mozz, tomatoes basil mayo). This is one of the best eggplant sandwiches we have ever had. The eggplant was sliced into large pieces and roasted to perfection. They cut the eggplant in nice large pieces so the finished product was not mushy and the smoked mozz and tomato basil mayo rounded it out perfectly. Mushroom Ricotta Gnocchi. (mixed mushrooms, fresh rosemary, garlic, white truffle oil in a light parmesan cream sauce). The gnocchi was soft and tender. The mushrooms had great texture, but the amount of sauce on the dish just over powered everything. For me it needed about half of the sauce it had and a little more seasoning. They really do a great job and make great food. We had a great experience and will definitely return.

    I haven't written a review in a while, but damn, I gotta say something about Crust. Yes, it's true the slices are as big as your head. Such novelty may lead you to believe that this place is all about size (*hey now*). Not true at Crust! I've quickly become a regular to this pizza/salad/sub joint near China Town. The pizza is excellent, sold by both the slice and whole pie. The crust (the best part) is chewy and crispy with a soft center. Melts in your mouth. The toppings are super fresh. No canned mushrooms here! The subs are my new fav. They make the bread fresh every day. Same goodness as the pizza. A big pet peeve of mine is biting in to a sub with crusty bread and having the contents spray my lunch mate in the face. Not happening at Crust. The bread is crusty enough to have a good texture, but soft enough to bite through easily. So far, I've tried the Philly, Chicken Parm and Club. All are excellent. If you want something sweet, I highly recommend the brownie. It's cake-like, nice and gooey and rich. Leave some room for these babies! Having said all this, I'm afraid I may have to switch to salads. Otherwise, I won't be able to fit in the door. Love you, Crust!

    Found this place by accident, I was driving around Cleveland and needed to pull off the main road to look something up and we pulled in here and decided this would be a good place for lunch. I'm glad we went here as the pizza was great. They had 4-6 out and I got a slice from a couple of them and my wife got a couple slices too. The toppings were great, the crust was great, it was a good place to take a break for lunch.

    I've been to the crust in Tremont and decided to try this new location since I work downtown. The pizza is great and affordable! I love getting a slice and adding the stuffed banana peppers. Pluses... The location is much bigger and definitely has more table Space so you can come with a group & the pizza is still great Down side.. I miss the big wooden pizza plates from the Tremont location, and the crust seems a little more "well done"... Maybe they're breaking in the new oven?? Overall, good on the go food and prices. You pay $4.50 for the slice then you pay $1 or $2 for extra toppings-can't beat that!

    Penne pasta with mushroom, cream sauce, and truffle oil!
    Bridget G.

    Oh my lord! Delicious and such a good deal. I ordered the Penne pasta mushroom Parmesan cream sauce with truffle oil and it was AMAZING. The cream sauce was delicious and it had hints of rosemary in it I believe. it was a much larger portion than I expected. DEFINITELY a great price. In terms of the giant one slice I ordered, it is amazing. I love NY style pizza and this is delicious. The crust is crispy but not too crispy. The sauce is amazing and I generally don't like red sauce. This is a solid 5 stars!

    Stopped for lunch and had a very good ham and egg pizza. Awesome tasting and a huge slice!! I'll definitely be back!!

    Stuffed pepper pizza
    Brandi T.

    Overall good experience. My coworkers and I ordered takeout. 2 large pizzas, a salad, and a sandwich. It was ready in 20 minutes. The pizza was good but very greasy, leaking through the paper plate. The salad was good but not a ton of toppings but very fresh. The sandwich was also good but not revolutionary. Looking forward to trying again.

    I'm going to be honest, if you claim to be "New York inspired" you've got a lot to live up to - and…read moreyou'd better live up to that hype. Good Pizza does that. My son and I were in town for a concert and walked around. He's a pizza guy and we walked in for the 2 slices and drink for $12 special. It's walkup and order service and they brought it out, hot and ready in just a few minutes. It's a clean, modern environment with plenty of seating. He got a traditional crust margherita pizza while I opted for the Detroit style pepperoni. Both were outstanding. He loved the sweetness of the sauce and the cheese blend. My Detroit style was a little crispier than I like, but it didn't ruin the flavor at all. The small pepperonis curled up and kept that grease right inside (yesss!). New York inspired? In Ohio?

You can tell the ingredients are top notch and that a lot of care is put into it. I highly recommend it. Now the subjective part: this isn't the NY pizza I was looking forward to. It's this newer version that is cooked at higher temps. I want that traditional style where the crust tastes like freshly baked bread and the cheese is over the sauce. What Portnoy calls a "football" pizza. That's what I grew up with, and pretty much no one offers it. And those that do, it's a cheap imitation. So, Charlie, I'm begging you, bring us that classic style. You know exactly the flavor profile I'm talking about.

Coming into the store there was a cute counter by the window if you did decide to sit inside and eat. We came all the way from Kent for the pizza and wanted to try a slice before we left for home so my boyfriend ate a slice in the parking lot really quick. An employee (possibly the owner) came out with napkins and offered us to sit inside. We declined as we had to leave but the man graciously went inside and brought us out cold water bottles for our drive home! It was such a thoughtful gesture. Now onto the pizza. It was delicious! We ordered a regular pepperoni pizza and the white Neapolitan style pizza. It wouldn't let me add pineapple to my pizza online, which was fine because it didn't need it, the pizza was so good! My boyfriend loved his pepperoni pizza and I also enjoyed my Neapolitan style white pizza. It had a great garlicky flavor and was crispy on the crust. Will definitely be back to try the margarita pizza next! So if you're looking for a great pizza with hospitality I recommend coming to Joe De's!

I ordered six mild wings (bone-in), and he got a fresh-cut chip order. The wings were huge and sauced perfectly. The chips were pretty good, but a bit underwhelming - nice crunch, but nothing out of the ordinary. As it should be, though, the pizza is the star of the show. Even with just a cheese pizza, the dough and sauce are delicious. My boy ranks all his pizza selections, and this one made it to #3 overall, behind two NY pizza places. If I get back here, I want the House Special!

The food I ordered the anchovy margherita pizza and it was a solid 9.5/10. Easily one of the closest pizzas I've had in the U.S. to the authentic Roman-style pizzas I remember. The only minor criticism -- and honestly not really their fault -- was that the anchovies tasted slightly canned, giving a bit more fishiness than the fresh anchovies commonly used in Italy. The service One of the owners, Annie, felt like the Italian nonna welcoming you into her home. Warm, thoughtful, conversational and constantly making sure everyone was taken care of. That hospitality elevated the entire experience. The atmosphere The restaurant is smaller and lively, so it can get pretty loud, especially on a Saturday night. The music was a tad louder than I personally prefer, but I also think it helps balance out the constant buzz of conversation happening at every table. The wait My friend and I arrived around 6:30 PM on a Saturday and the wait was about an hour and a half -- which is wild for a pizza place, but also says everything about how popular it is. Worth it? If you're craving authentic Italian pizza, absolutely. Overall The food alone makes the noise and wait worthwhile, and the hospitality makes you want to come back. I'd absolutely return the next time I'm in Cleveland.
