I have to write this review because I love pizza- and what they serve here at Crust in West Ryde is not even close to what it should be. I know that Crust is a chain or franchise, but I wonder how they have grown their business serving the worst version of Margherita pizza I have ever tasted. They should be ashamed to serve something like that when the frozen pizzas at your local supermarket taste better- and for me to say that, well ... it was that bad.
Honestly,I didn't pay for the takeaway last night, and it was a treat for someone to shout us pizza.I ate 5 slices from four different pizzas as I was hungry, but looking back, there was only one that was worthy of positive feedback- Quatro Salumi-there was enough spicy salami to make my mouth happy, but the promised buffalo mozzarella and cherry tomato were only an afterthought and only put on top for colour. We had a pizza with rocket on top -the rocket should have been in a ziplock bag or container so that the rocket was eaten fresh instead of shrivelled up on top of the pizza.The staff at this place obviously do not eat rocket or they would already know this- customers must complain everyday about this.The other two pizzas were poor examples of what pizza should be. The three children that had the last two thought they were okay so maybe I am not in their target market group. Rather than going on like I already have, I will just finish by saying that I have never spent a dollar at Crust and will never do so. If I want a quick pizza delivered , their competition will be a better choice for me.And just because a restaurant puts the word "gourmet" in their business name, doesn't mean they will fullfill your expectations! read more
