Pizza Pizza Bayside Miami

After going to the Vampire Circus under the tent on the south side of Bayside in Miami, we all decided it was time to grab something to eat. It seemed logical enough to go Bayside and see if there was something we could all agree on. One person didn’t want Hooters, another didn’t want Bubba Gump, and eventually we made it down towards the east side of the plaza and saw Pizza Pizza located next to some gelato place.

Pizza Pizza didn’t have any seats inside but they did possess a couple of empty tables outside, so we all went in and placed our individual orders.

Damiano Italian Restaurant Boca Raton Pizza

Well it didn’t take long for Assaggio Del Forno to close, maybe a couple months to be somewhat precise. After my first terrible experience there, I was certain they didn’t have what it would take to last in their location. The clientele that lives nearby is way to finicky for even the slightest mistake. I did go back and try the pizza, and thought it was decent, but a place with that high rent and buildout could never survive on pizza alone.

Damiano Italian Restaurant quickly put up coming soon signs as soon as Assaggio Del Forno closed. Either the previous owner sold it, or made some sort of deal with the new owner John Williams who also recently was behind Frank and Dino’s in Deerfield Beach. The weird thing is I also heard Dennis Max who owned Assaggio Del Forno was also an owner of that restaurant. Did Damiano just change its name and pretend like it was a new restaurant? According to the press that circled Frank and Dino’s when it opened, John Williams was a Partner with the Max Group. Are they no longer partners? Anyways let’s get to the pizza.

American Pie Pizza Hallandale, FL Gulfstream Park

A lot of hype was generated when the Gulfstream Racetrack remodeled itself and added outdoor shopping and gambling inside. Although it took us a while, my family and I finally found time to go and see if it was a fun place to put in our rotation on boring weekends.

Whoever did the redesign did a great job on the outside village area http://www.thevillageatgulfstreampark.com/. There are many outdoor shops and restaurants including Brio and Yard House. Needless to say if you are hungry you can easily find a place everyone agrees upon. Since I noticed a place called America Pie Pizzeria, we chose to get pizza. I have noticed since I have eaten there that they changed their name to American Pie Brick Oven Pizza now, probably to hop on the brick oven craze.

Harry’s Pizza Miami Design District

I have been to the “best pizza” places all over the world. I have tasted what I consider to be some of the best pizza in the world during these travels. Many times the places the local papers and review sites recommend are right, but many times they are wrong. Recently Food and Wine magazine put out their Best New Pizza Places in the United States post, and included Harry’s Pizza in the Miami Design District as one of the best.

Since I have never eaten there I decided to go give it a try and see if I could believe the rest of their picks based upon the decision to include Harry’s Pizza.

Pies & Pints Pizza Charleston, WV

Found myself traveling through the State of West Virginia for work the other day. Wasn’t expecting much since most of what the television shows discuss about West Virginia solely deals with the Hatfields and McCoys. I was staying in Charleston, WV and got the urge to wander out and try some of the local fare.

I noticed a place called Pies & Pints Pizzeria on Capitol Street and being the pizza lover I am, it seemed only reasonable that I would go in an try it out for the site. Doesn’t seem like WorstPizza has many reviews from this State.

St. James Pizza in St. James, NY

My sister’s friend informed me that there was a new pizza place that opened up out in St. James, over by the car dealerships, simply called St. James Pizza. She had previously gone there and enjoyed it and suggested that perhaps we have lunch there to see what I thought of it.

After parking on the side of the building we walked towards St. James Pizza. Once inside you can easily tell that St. James Pizza is still new. Everything seemed clean and in place, and looked extremely inviting.

The Ale House Boca Raton Pizza

Recently I noticed that The Ale House on Yamato Road in Boca Raton was offering a new menu item…PIZZA! Does it get any better than watching football games on dozens of screens and having the ability to order pizza fresh out of the oven while you do so?

When the waitress came by, I couldn’t order this pizza fast enough. The way The Ale House in this Boca Raton location was promoting it on their menu, I knew I should be in for something tasty, full of quality ingredients, and worth coming back for. Unfortunately this wasn’t the case in my opinion.

Ovenella Pizza Boca Raton

Previously Pizza Expert went to Ovenella during its first week opened in Boca Raton and pretty much disliked everything about it except for the scenery. Recently we were invited back and I got to try the pizza at Ovenella in Boca Raton for the first time.

First the scenery, when I first walked in I was delighted to see a modern look to Ovenella. Very clean looking with an inviting feel. There is a bar with plenty of space for grabbing a cocktail after work. I was there for lunch and was given the lunch menu. I went straight to the pizza and noticed for lunch they serve 8 inch pizzas.
