Bad Pizza from Gucci’s Restaurant

After a day of traveling, I ended up in Marshall, TX for the night. The motel clerk recommended Gucci’s Restaurant as having the good Italian food, as opposed to the Italian restaurant right across the street. After eating, I really hope Gucci’s can’t speak for all Italian restaurants in Texas.


The pizza was topped with half green peppers and half ground beef with a sesame seed crust. I am almost certain that Gucci’s used pre-made pizza crusts. The crust was a horrible, dense, foamy bread. I say foamy because if the crust was poked with a fork, the holes would close up and appear that it was never stabbed. Although the crust had seemingly magical powers to heal itself, one thing it couldn’t do was connect with cheese. Every bit of cheese, sauce, and topping slid right off the crust. Sometimes this happens if there is too much sauce on a pizza, but there was actually very little sauce on this pie. It’s hard to tell exactly how much sauce the pizza started out with though because a lot of it got absorbed into the crust, making it kind of soggy. Perhaps this soggy crust couldn’t provide a proper surface for the cheese to adhere itself to.

Whatever caused the flaws with this pizza, it was totally unacceptable from what was recommended as the “good Italian restaurant.”  I’ve had better pizzas than this pie from the frozen food section at the Supermarket.
