We decided to order pizza from a new place on a whim, and are we glad we did!
I'm sorry if this is going to insult some Windsorites here, but bare with me.
Pizza in Windsor has been stagnant for some time, they all seem to have the same bland taste, it almost seems that the people who make the pizza don't even really care about what they do anymore, but I'm quite happy to say this is NOT the case at Krusty's.
We ordered a large "The Meateater" today, which was '16 pieces', for about $23 after taxes, totally worth it! Called up an order for pick-up, since we live about a block away, guy on the phone said it would be about 20min, so after 15minutes walked over (its right across from the Tim Hortons) to pick it up.
I had to wait about 2 or 3 more minutes while he was getting out a couples pizzas out of the oven, and even before I got home with the pizza and without seeing our pizza come out of the oven yet, I knew we were going to have a good pizza from a pizza place, which we haven't in a long time. The pizza maker was so enthusiastic about his pizzas! As he was taking the pizza out of the oven he was talking to the couple about how good they are and how he doesn't use any frozen ingredients, talked about how he added fresh crushed garlic to the dough to make it more of a garlic bread crust, named the place where he bought the cheese from and said that he doesn't need a freezer or anything because he buys all of his ingredients fresh. To me as a person who is very passionate about cooking this was quite a good thing to hear, and the couple even responded with 'yea we heard the pizza is great!' and thats why they decided to order from him.
As he pulled the pizzas out I could see they weren't the usual cardboard pizzas that you get from most places around here, they were massive, loaded with toppings and then he even took some garlic butter and based the outside crust with even more garlic flavor. Their pizzas looked awesome, and within a minute of them leaving and paying I was walking home with my pizza as well.
I will admit that I like to try new places and I always hope that new businesses can survive in the horrible economy that windsor has, so that is why I am writing this review, hopefully it will convince some people out there to try Krusty's pizza and then tell some of their friends, if not hopefully the owner can read this and know that he should keep it up because the pizza was awesome, nice sauce, VERY generous toppings, nice moist garlicky crust (my girlfriend doesn't eat crusts ever, but she did on this pizza, so that says something to me at least :)), a little messy to eat but who cares if it tastes good :)
If you are looking for a new pizza place to order from, trust me when I say give Krusty's a try, I can pretty much guarantee you won't be disappointed. read more
