I was looking for a tasty new pizza place to fill a craving after a long work week and came across…read moreCheesey Pizza Corner on UberEats. Their prices looked in line with other places and so I decided to hit them up.
Order was placed and delivered via UberEats.
When the pizza arrived it was in the most delightful packaging I've seen in a while, with a 2L coke on the side at additional cost. First impressions of the pizza looked great, and the smell got me salivating.
For starters.. The coke was lukewarm, unfortunately, almost like it was plucked off a shelf next to a fridge, rather than in it, so had to be chilled before drinking. That was too bad but I can't say for sure - all I know is it was warm.
The pizza however... oh my, where to start?
The smoky, crispy pepperoni, with a salty tang.. the chewy, briny, tender olives, and the gooey cheese.. this was certainly a delightful bite overall! However, one disappointment for me was that the mushrooms, hidden within, were barely noticeable, and when I did taste them, were like they were straight out of a can. I know the unmistakeable taste and texture of canned mushroom. I also understand food costs rising these days, but to have such a quality tasting pizza, with soft, crisp, fluffy dough and high quality flavours rounded out with subpar, canned sliced mushrooms.. the overall experience definitely takes a hit, especially when you pay extra for additional toppings. This felt like a bit.. in poor taste, pardon my pun, but I digress.
Overall, I enjoyed my pizza enough to polish it off, over the next few days, and keep them on my list to reorder. Just note that if you order from Cheesey Pizza Corner, you may run into a 'cut corner' here and there, to top off an otherwise well-rounded and quality pizza bite, which may curb your experience.
Had it not been for the canned mushrooms and the warm coke, I'd have given this establishment a 5-star easily. But.. for the cost-to-quality of what I got, it fell just shy of perfection for me; especially paying extra for canned, not fresh.
Overall, I'd say you won't be disappointed, anywhere near fully, but one should manage their expectations and know what they're buying before ordering the extras.
