I think Pizza is one of those products that caters to individual tastes. So let me first describe what I like. I like 'Detroit-style pizza'...that is, a square crust crispy outside/chewy inside, Wisconsin brick cheese, layered sauce. My favorites have been Buddies (most favorite) and Pizza Hut (specifically one in Memphis who didn't know they were serving Detroit style). I also like thin crust pizzas, almost any I have had but favorite was one from an E. Lansing bar that is now gone.
In short:
OK pizza with a ton of toppings and a good crust (even though it is not the kind of crust I prefer). Made very quickly and service was friendly. Didn't look like advertised pizza, onion was predominant flavor, not enough sauce for our tastes. Better than most in the area and I will try them again.
Longer review:
That said, here is the good, the bad, and the ugly on our 12'' veggie pizza!
The Good:
This thing was LOADED with toppings! And they did not overcook the vegetables. I normally get something with meat on it (favorite was a (discontinued) little Caesars creation loaded with smoked meats (that I would paid double for)...but my daughter is vegetarian.
The cheese was good and it was thick! I feel like we got our money's worth! 12'' was plenty for two normal adults and we were quite full.
The crust was not crispy but was NOT sloppy and limp like some pizza I have had. So that was OK, good even.
The order was completed SUPER fast. I ordered and it was done in around 15 minutes. This is positive, but troubling as you will see later.
The Bad:
The pizza did not look like the picture posted on web site. I think (not sure) we got all the ingredients...it had diced tomatoes...not sliced on top, I did not see or taste olives, and onion overpowered much of the flavor. The cheese did not cover most ingredients and it looked almost as though they had a extra cheese pizza around so they sprinkled toppings on it and warmed it up. (come to think of it, the toppings DID seem like they were not cooked, odd given they were on top not covered by cheese AND it was ready super fast)
The crust was not crispy, but I don't think that is the pizza style they are selling...so you make up your mind on that one.
I prefer more sauce then they put on the pizza. Apparently I was not alone. We both wound up adding some marinara I had in the fridge.
The on-line ordering system was confusing as heck. I really don't care much about that because I would rather call an order in...but check it out.
The Ugly:
I WAS prepared to say there was no ugly until I started this review. While I prefer toppings not cooked to death, I am now concerned about toppings being on top but cooked so lightly. We DID NOT get sick and it taste pretty good so take it for what you will.
Sorry Lorenzo's, I wanted to love your pizza. Use this review to improve...It was good enough I will try it again some time and write a new review at that point. read more
