Ordering online is simple but it's just as easy to call and place an order of you have any questions or concerns. This time I ordered a large pizza with vegan cheese. Half the pizza had artichokes and kalamata olives, the other half was topped with fresh sliced mushrooms and vegan sausage. No canned mushrooms here! I think its great that they know their ingredients. The Vegan cheese is always browned and properly melted.

I'm going to start out with a tip. Ask to have your 4-cut pizza cut into 12 slices. (Easy math…read moreconversion if you get an 8-cut instead.) I've never been to Detroit and only had Detroit style pizza at one other restaurant which just so happens to also be local. I read that the chef at that other restaurant was originally from Detroit and was therefore quite knowledgeable and experienced in making the Detroit style. I've enjoyed the pizza there enough to have returned several times. So, I was anxious to try Uncle Dom's when I heard about it last week. After all, it's about 25 miles closer to home. I've Googled Detroit style pizza in the past and learned that it "is a rectangular pizza with a thick crust that is crispy and chewy. It is traditionally topped with Wisconsin brick cheese that goes all the way to the edges and caramelizes against the high-sided heavyweight rectangular pan." Uncle Dom's meets that criteria! (Actually, I don't know if the cheese was from Wisconsin.) Google also tells me that Detroit style is 1 1/2" thick. I mention this because Uncle Dom's is slightly thicker than what I've had elsewhere, is awkward and messy to eat when served in Dom's standard size cut (see my above tip), and you're likely to get sauce on your nose! At the pan's edge of a slice, Dom clearly hits the 2-inch mark (see photo). The dough at the center may be 1 1/2" but the generous amount of toppings, especially the delicious sauce, cannot help but kiss the inner top of the takeout box. All that dough is delicious. It has a great flavor on its own, but the caramelized melted cheese at the edges takes it up another notch. Chunks of ham and pineapple on the Hawaiian, blend great flavors with the sauce and dough. Sautéed peppers and onions along with a nicely fenneled sausage, also go great with Dom's sauce and (Wisconsin?) cheese. Love that sausage! Note: Beware of the prices shown on the webpage. They are out of date. My Hawaiian was not $14 but $16, and the Sausage, Peppers, and Onions was not $14 but $18. Both pizzas were well worth the higher cost.

Don't judge a pizza by its bar…read more What you might call a dive bar, I could call a culinary exploration. Located in Eldorado bar in Troy, some might call this place a dive, dumpy, a hole in the wall, but I found it to be a homey and comfortable setting. And, it is exactly what it's not trying to be, an excellent pizza spot. You could randomly stumble in here after a night on the town expecting crappy bar food, and find truly excellent Detroit style pizza. Uncle Doms was a last minute addition to a local pizza tour. We came late, the bar was pretty empty, and we quickly snagged up 6 seats at the bar. We came for pizza and ordered some beverages for our wait. The bar was well staffed and we chatted up the bartenders who were all raving about the pizza, rightfully so. The menu is simple, Detroit style pizza is what they serve. We opted for a large 8 cut plain cheese pie, double cut for sharing. It came in about 20 minutes, cooked fresh and delivered hot and beautiful. Detroit style pizza is a thick cut pizza cooked in a deep sheet pan, cheese covered to the edges to give you the most delicious and burnt cheesy crust, topped with sauce. This pizza was amazing. The crust, while thick, was so light and airy with a crisp and buttery bottom. The cheese and sauce were heavy, but paired perfectly with the thick crust. This pizza is crave worthy, balanced and very unexpected. Highly recommend checking this place out for a casual beer and pizza night. It's seriously unexpected and down right delicious.

I went on a Friday night, and my party of three was sat immediately. In addition to their regular menu, they had a variety of specials. They also have a cocktail menu and a good selection of draft beers that include local, regional, and national options. We weren't hungry enough for an appetizer, so we just ordered entrees, which included the Chicken Parm, Bacon Bleu Burger, and Broiled Haddock. The Chicken Parm portion was huge, and the cutlet was cooked perfectly. I'm also a fan of chunky tomato sauce, which is exactly what it was topped with. It was delicious! And for $18, I thought it was more than fair for the large portion I received. My boyfriend loved the Bacon Bleu Burger, which came with handcut fries, and my Dad loved the Broiled Haddock. It was a large piece of fish over fettuccine pasta with a lemon butter sauce. We all left full and happy! I'm also so happy to have a place like this nearby.

I don't know if these reviews are fake or if these people have never had pizza before, but this…read morerestaurant was not good. To put into perspective, I ordered a sausage and pepperoni pizza and medium wings. First, the pizza was absolutely disgusting. The crust was extremely doughy and there was hardly any sauce on the pizza. In addition, the pepperoni slices were the size of the entire pizza. It was very bizarre. Furthermore, the flavor of the pizza was not enjoyable at all. It seems a lot of restaurants use wood fired pizza ovens, but don't actually put any effort into the pizza which is a shame. On the flip side, the wings were actually pretty good. To enumerate, the wings had a good amount of spice and the sauce was tasty. Also, the wings were juicy, but the outside could have been crispier. Given these points, The Trestle has terrible pizza and solid chicken wings.

12 cut square pizza has a great thickness. Hands down if you like a thick square pie give this one a shot. The dough is top notch quality to go along with a tasty cheese. Most pizza cheeses are chewy and lack any flavor. Their cheese has a nice sharp taste and a quick easy bite. Garlic knots are quality. most likely same dough as the pizza pie and the garlic butter sauce is tasty. the Marinara sauce is a terrific dipping sauce. Strombolis are MASSIVE!!!! They are easily 12+ inches long if not bordering a foot and a half. Nice variety of choices and if you don't see something you like...they offer a customizable three topping stromboli for the same prices as other special breads. I saved the best item for last. HOMEMADE FOCACCIAS! Walk in around lunch time and the aroma of freshly baked FOCACCIAS hit you instantly. Traditionally its served as a flat bread. Here they come in a muffin like shape. For a 1.50 it's ideal for a nice light lunch on any given day. The owner and his wife are genuine people. They pride themselves in being personable to whoever walks through there doors. They offer a great product on a consistent basis. read more

I love their pizza and wings! If I am going to order out for pizza this is the place I'm going to get it. The owner and all the employees are always nice and the food is always hot, ready and delicious when they say its going to be ready. This sets them apart from all the other Albany area pizzerias. When you request a topping there is no doubt you are getting your money's worth. I live outside Watervliet by more than a couple miles and I find it to be worth the trip to get food from there. They wear their masks and they pump out pizzas. I have heard rumors they do ridiculous size orders if you give be them a fair amount of notice. I'm going to give them a ring when it we have our next pizza party. Thanks guys for doing what you do. read more

Ok so here it is. Pizza is like sex when its great its unbelievable when its bad its still ok. I think their pizza is just ok. Lacks a taste. The wings we had at the contest were the best I have had for garlic parm but the wings I ordered from them from the restaurat were not the same wings or the same taste. I am surprised since I heard at the show from the owner that they were the number one place in the area for food. I don't know about that. I will go back but I hope it is better the second time around. read more

After devouring four juicy, flavorful wings that I dipped into their excellent very chunky homemade blue cheese dressing, I understand the hype. Does the breading enhance the flavor and make the sauce coat the wings better? I believe so. The wings both drum and flat were meaty. Extra parm was at the bottom of the serving dish and could be spooned onto wings. She also served Bourbon BBQ, Thai Chile, Korean, and PB and Jelly Breaded Wings. The Korean and Thai were delicious. The Bourbon and PB & J were too sweet for my taste, but they were enjoyed by others. Boneless Wings were typical fare. Wow! Breaded Wings are minimum of Five Stars! Delicious! I did not like the COB (cheese in bottom) Pizza. The crust and COB were good, but the thick top layer of slightly sweet not savory red sauce was unappealing to me.

There's some buzz around their upside-down/COB-style pizza, and on paper, it should hit. But execution? That's where things fall apart. Crust comes out too thick and bready, lacking that crisp bite you expect. It feels more like filler than foundation. When you pick up a slice, it just doesn't have that structure or snap. Now the big issue the sauce. You guys know I'm a sauce snob. It leans heavy, overly sweet, and kind of flat. Instead of elevating the slice, it overwhelms it. You don't get that balanced, tangy tomato flavor just a one-note layer that sits on top of everything. Cheese and overall bake? Inconsistent. Some areas overcooked, others just sitting there. It doesn't come together as one cohesive slice. Even looking at Yelp (around that 3.3 range), it lines up this is a spot people want to like, but the consistency and quality just aren't there.
