Oh. My. God. People, I have found the food that I want to eat when I lie on my deathbed. For real, not being morbid, but it I had one last wish before I passed, it would be the item that I will discuss a bit later down the review.
First let us talk about the fact that this place does not look like a business if you were looking at it from the outside. It looks more like a home than anything else. Especially since this does sit in the West End of Johnstown. But once you are told about this place and walk inside, you get it, because it works.
Inside you have the dive bar feel, but not just any old dive bar. You can tell that at one point in time that this place was a lively, beautiful place. Just look at the picture of the bar, such an ornate design for it. But as all things go, we get older and things change. They adapt and that's what this place did. booths were added for seating inside and the bar isn't as busy as it use to be.
We were greeted as soon as we walked in, seated and menus in hand. Drink order taken and we were left to sit and decide how the pizzas were going to turn out. They actually have a great deal here; one topping large pizza for only $7.40. Yes, you read that correctly, however I am not sure whether that is dine in only or not. So we decided on that and...WAIT, I'm drooling thinking about the next thing. Let me collect myself.
We ordered a Potato Pizza. This thing was heaven in a slice. If you are to order this, be prepared to wait, there is a process to this pizza. For real. They make the mashed potatoes that they use as the base/sauce fresh. So that means you have to wait for the potatoes to boil and be mashed before they can be put on that crust. They they has some chopped onions and top it with cheese. Most places call this a pierogi pizza or something crazy like that, but this is a POTATO PIZZA. The potato to cheese ratio leans heavily towards potato. That, people, is the item I must have before I leave this world. It is that good. read more
