After a long day of driving and hiking, we asked our son and heir what he wanted for supper. Pizza was the request, so pizza was the destination. I was reading the reviews for Melting Pot Pizza and one mentioned that they're cash-only, so we decided to try Anthony's instead.
We started with drinks- 2 sweet teas and a root beer. Ordered the cheese garlic bread appetizer. It was pretty straightforward- most of a hoagie roll toasted with garlic butter, and covered with cheese. Tasty stuff, that. But if I'd realized how much food was yet to come, I would not have ordered it.
The Boy ordered a small Meat Lover's Stromboli. He could only eat half of it initially. This, in and of itself, is astonishing.
Darling Bride and I decided that we would split a medium Dough Boy pizza - a thicker crust topped with steak, fried onions, cheddar, and mozzarella. DB described it as "like a cheesesteak on a pizza." The crust was crisp on the bottom, but still nice and doughy. I almost think I'd have preferred it on a regular crust, though. The thick was too much food! The sauce was delicious - neither too acid nor sweet. The steak was cheesesteak style- thin and cooked to chewy perfection. The cheeses melted and sort of marbled together nicely.
If you're in the Luray/Front Royal area, I highly recommend Anthony's!
