So, I haven't been reviewing lately, bad me. I any case I tried this restaurant a few weeks ago, and it is now one of my favorites. Well, for the things that I have tried.
Have you ever had a day that you wanted a certain "type" of food? Not necessarily the cuisine, but how it is cooked. I have been a fan of "hole in-the-wall" restaurants for the longest. I know when I lived in Seattle, we decided to go to Portland and when we got there there was a pizza place we wanted to try. I guarantee that the restaurant was o bigger than that of a kitchen and dinning room. They had 1-2 tables, ad that was all; the place was jammed pack! When it was time to leave, the people had to go back outdoors, to let us come out. It was the epitome of "hole-in-the-wall." When we got to the hotel, that food was sooo good!!! #foodie That being said, that is why I love trying these type of restaurants....scary looking, but the food is wonderful!
In this case, IDK what Luigis Pizza looks like. I know that I have ordered from the more than once. I have NOT had a problem with the food per-se, I just haven't tried much from the menu.
I I am still dealing with my silly body being hungry, but doesn't want the food I put it in it, Stoopid. So, I was looking for a hole-in-the-wall food, and found it here. I ordered one of the everyday specials; they were (2) slices of pizza, w/ a canned drink for $6 and the angel hair pasta with bolognese, in addition I ordered a couple of meatballs with a small upcharge, garlic knots, and cheesy bread. A lot of bread I know, but I was being fat!!!
I found that the sides cost more than the food, in some cases, otherwise it was budget friendly. When I got the food, it was piping hot. The slices were "ginormous," and when fresh they were good. However if you have to heat them up, due to the thin-ness of the dough...it kills it almost immediately. No matter if you put a damp paper towel in it and heat it up for under 25 sec it's over. I learned the hard way. Outside of that the pasta was SOOOO good. However, they gave so much, that it literally took me having it for lunch and dinner for 2 days and then I had to toss it. They did what I asked thought. I wanted extra meat in the bolognese, they did it...I got baked cheese,too; so it was kinda liked baked spaghetti (it's like lasagna, but w/o ricotta). You can add a bunch of toppings, I only did a few...but I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Well, the pizza slice was a lil wonky but other than that. I will be going back.
Lastly, I hate to interject...I have been finding that the more "hole-in-the-wall." Restaurants that I have found, if the food is left out, or put in the fridge, they do NOT taste the same after. I guess depending on how far away from the restaurant you are, with delivery my food always is piping hot. So, once it arrives, sit down and eat! read more
