Peace A Pizza Boca Raton – Peace Out I Am Not Coming Back

peace a pizza

Went to Peace A Pizza in Boca Raton today for lunch. Even though it is located across the street from my office, I would rather drive miles then go back. Eating this pizza was like getting a big gift that is wrapped beautifully and then you open it and realize there is a pair of tube socks inside.

Upon walking into the restaurant you are greeted with this amazing smell of fresh pizza. And as you walk by the counter you see dozens of different varieties to choose from (as you can see in my photos.

Trust me folks, in my opinion, these look a whole lot better then they taste. Peace A Pizza does not put any TLC into their pie. It is almost like a glorified Papa Johns with a few extra choices. I am a firm believer you should be good at one kind of pizza before you try to doll up others. You can tell how little they care about the pizza by the way they bake it. Peace A Pizza does not have a regular pizza oven but some new type of concoction that circles the pizza around.

It is almost like watching Krispy Kremes getting made but with pizza instead. Even once you order your slice of pizza, which in my case was one regular and one sicilan (which of course during lunch time they were out of sicilian which is a fantastic time not to prepare in advance) they do nothing more then take the slice and run it through a turbo jet speed oven looking thing. I also ordered a garlic loaf which they neglected to give me and ultimately was handed to me with tongs into my hand since the kid was too lazy or dumb to give me a plate or a napkin. But at least he told me to be careful since it was hot as he put it into my hand…..how odd! In my opinion, after having the pizza today I am kind of surprised they are still open, since they are in a high rent shopping plaza. In my opinion, I will give Peace A Pizza in Boca Raton, Florida 1 out of 8 slices.

Villa Pizza Boca Raton Town Center Mall

villa 3Villa Pizza

After the recent horror I had at the Sbarro location in the Sawgrass Mills Mall, I became almost frightened to have mall pizza again.  This changed this past weekend!  My wifes family and I went to the Town Center Mall in Boca Raton, Florida, got hungry and went to the food court.  I have eaten at the Pizza place in the food court called Villa Pizza several times, but never really paid attention to whether it was good or not since I was usually in a rush and it was before I started reviewing places for you guys here.  As you know I usually only try the regular pizza so all reviews are equal, so although the photos above are of the meat lovers and vegetable pizza (which my father in law and brother in law had) but I accidentally deleted my photo while uploading…..sorry

Villa Pizza happens to be one of the best slices I have had in an “institutional” setting like a mall.  This place BLOWS Sbarro away, and it amazes me that Sbarro has become so large and a place like this hasn’t.  The cheese was quality the sauce was tasty and the crust was as good as it could be for a fast food type of setting.  Make sure to try their garlic rolls as well if you are there.  I would not recommend trying their equivalence of Sicilian style pizza though, this left a lot to be desired and was pretty expensive.  Stick with a regular slice here and skip the other places in the food court.  I will give Villa Pizza in Boca Raton 4 out of 8 slices.

Cucina Rosano Delray Beach Florida – Cannot afford my slice of the pie!

Cucina RosanoUPDATE:  CUCINA ROSANO HAS CHANGED ITS NAME TO CUCINA MIO.

I happen to be a regular at Cucina Rosano in both their Delray Beach and Boca Raton locations, or I guess I should better state, I used to be a regular at Cucina Rosano. The reasoning behind my above statement is simple….I AM JUST NOT RICH ENOUGH! I recently learned that the price of pizza coincides with the price of gold or oil I guess.

Sirrico’s Pizza Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood WORST PIZZA

If you are ever at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida and feel like spending $3.50 for a horrible slice of what I guess they consider Pizza, then have I got the place for you! Sirrico’s Pizza located in the food court of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida had this haunting aroma of garlic when I walked by it, and after getting the smell into my head I had to stop and take a look at what they were serving.

Mario’s Pizza – Now Bova Boca Raton – Florida Pizza Ovens

Went back to Mario’s of Boca Raton to have some Pizza again today.  After hearing that Mario’s also has one of these $100,000 pizza ovens, I decided to see if I really could notice the difference.  A previous post about Campagnolo in Boca Raton also made mention of their $100,000 pizza oven, which I have yet to see.  Mario’s on the other hand proudly displays their oven for public viewing, almost like a trophy.

Worst Pizza – Delray Beach – Story

I just came across this story written by
Veronica Martinez Palm Beach Post Staff Writer
and I had to print it!

DELRAY BEACH — A city police officer went undercover as a pizza-delivery man last month to bust a man who allegedly used a stolen credit card to buy more than $1,000 worth of pizza, chicken strips and hot wings in three weeks.

The theft was discovered after the real owner of the credit card contacted his bank and was told of the charges made to a Papa John’s Pizza restaurant on Federal Highway in Boynton Beach.

Tony’s Authentic Brooklyn Pizza – Boca Raton – Florida

After finding out that Tony was no longer at Tony’s Authentic Brooklyn Pizza in Boca Raton and that his wife Sam was running the place, I had to go back and try the pizza to see if it was still the same. Since Sam is running the place this makes her one of a handful of female owners in Palm Beach County Florida who are running their own pizza places. The only other one I actually know of is Pizza Girls in West Palm Beach. If you know of any others please notify me so I can do a special segment on the best.

Sal’s Pizza – Boca Raton – St. Andrews

Always one to give a second chance to a local place, I decided to go to Sal’s Italian Ristorante (long name for pizza place) by the Town Center Mall.  I ordered the Sicilian and although it looked good, I cannot say I enjoyed it any better then I did the first time I tried it.  The cheese tasted rubbery, the crust wasn’t tasty, and the sauce seemed processed.
