Pizza Time
731 Pleasant Street , Dartmouth
After receiving a few requests, we decided we would check out Pizza Time out towards Shearwater / Eastern Passage. After ordering our pizza on a Tuesday evening, we were pleasantly surprised to receive free pop with our order. Already Pizza Time was looking up.
Pizza Time is in a house-gone-pizza joint. […]
East Side Mario’s
21 Micmac Boulevard Dartmouth
Leaning my chair back against a half finished brick wall and sitting next to the Statue of Liberty holding a tomato brought a unique atmosphere to East Side Mario’s, even down to the map showing where Mario had his first kiss. ‘m not sure if its always been this way, but the pizza came square. It’s just not the same if it comes as square.
Pizza Girls
324 Portland Street Dartmouth
Well, the plan was to hit up Pizza Girls (formerly Appetizers Pizza, as they take care to note on their sign) and then watch some classic movies (namely, The Princess Bride - an absolutely splendid movie if you havn’t seen - and a bit of Monty Python). Since this is the Pizza Patrol though, we’ll skip the awesomeness of the movies and move on to Pizza Girls.
Pizza Girls was one of the larger pizzas we have ordered to date - over 250 square inches of pepperoni pizza bliss. Normally we attempt slices, but Pizza Girls doesn’t offer slices so we ordered a special including a massive pepperoni pizza.
Pizza Town
575 Main Street Dartmouth
Pizza Town is kind of a mid-size joint. They have 6 locations in Metro. Not a big corporation, not a small joint. Mid-sized. And that’s exactly how the pizza was.
When we got there, there weren’t enough slices for everyone so we ended up ordering a pepperoni pizza, straight from the oven. Despite the fact that it was scalding hot when we started to dig in, it was kind of bland. Nothing jumped out to say good or bad. The pepperoni was a bit of a disappointment; it was a type that reminded me of salomi. Definitely not a good thing.
Boston Pizza
611 Portland Street Dartmouth
It’s Valentine’s Day, so the heart shaped pizza from Boston Pizza was the most obvious choice for today’s cuisine. It was delightful, to say the least.
I give Boston Pizza 3.5/5 slices. It was a delicious pizza all over. They had a very nice crust, crispy and yet oh so soft at the same time. It had a nice, subtle taste to it. Nothing to overpower and take away from the pizza, but just the right amount to add to the overall expereience and flavor of the pizza. The dough of the crust was fully cooked through, and was soft. A big plus, as too often I see an undercooked inner crust. The sauce was tasty and in ample supply, and the pepperoni was superb. The entire pizza had that crispiness to it in just the right amount, adding to the taste and yet not too much to be burnt or too hard to chew. There are no real complaints to speak of, but there just wasn’t that wow! factor to warrant a higher rating.
