I'm making my way through Worcester's pizza scene and Wayne's was going to come up eventually.
I ordered through them via uber eats. They were speedy and despite many other reviews I see on here, the food arrived as quickly, if not more quickly, than average. Trust me, my lazy ass has a lot of experience in this area. (The area of delivery, not necessarily geographical).
Their appetizer menu is more impressive than your conventional pizza place. You can't even always expect fries which this place has plus curly fries PLUS cheesy fries. There's some other good shit like all sorts of wings, jalapeno poppers, broccoli PUFFS, fried mushroom (what the hell?), and potato skins if.
Regarding the rest of their menu, they have all sorts of subs: cold subs, hot subs, chicken subs, FAT subs (are the rest of the subs skinny?), in addition to calzones, wraps, pastas, and dinner plates. They have a standard build-your-own pizza menu or specialty pizzas which include philly steak pizza, chicken and broccoli alfredo pizza, chicken bacon ranch, mexican, greek, the options continue and continue.
Let's talk about the pizza first. We ordered a classic cheese with garlic. A large one topping is $13.75. The crust was not a New York style thin crust, nor was it a chicago-style deep dish. I would say that the crust thickness was standard for American, non-specialty pizza. It held up well against the dreaded sog and maintained its crispness. The sauce was actually better than average, very flavorful and for once, its quantity was adequate. I'm a sauce bitch. The cheese was plentiful. For an outside-of-new-york pizza, this was EXCELLENT. Some of the best pizza I've had in Worcester.
We also ordered eggplant parm. Again, the sauce here was definitely lacking. This is a common problem that I've had with eggplant parms in this area. Is it normal for eggplant parm to be lacking in sauce? I'll have to do some research later. Very oniony again so if you like onions, you'll be happy. The eggplant was like in square form and it was crunchy and crisp and spectacular. I could munch on those eggplant squares all day tbh. Like with the pizza, they do not skimp on the cheese.
Finally, I can't pass up on an order of cheese fries. They do some interesting shit here and put TWO kinds of cheese. I don't know what kind of cheeses they are or if they're even real cheese but one was a more orange, velveeta-like substance and the other was a white more solid-type of cheese. Tina dove into these first and was not a fan. Being covered in that cheese-like substance made the fries themselves very soggy but the over abundance of cheesy goo tasted amazing and was a very pleasurable experience to consume, in my opinion. This is like a hedonist, cheat-day order for sure. Don't order this shit if you're on any sort of diet.
Ultimately, very high grades for Wayne and his pizza place. I would definitely recommend ordering from this place. read more
