The Margherita Pizza Project is progressing rather enjoyably so far, with only one bad pizza so far, though it was really bad. Copying the verbiage used by the New York Times in their restaurant reviews, from best to worst (Extraordinary, Excellent, Very Good, Good, Satisfactory, Fair, Poor), here are ratings of the margherita pizzas I have eaten through last night:
Bollo – Fair
Brandi (Naples) - Extraordinary
Cane Rosso – Satisfactory
Coppa – Good
Dolce Vita – Very Good
Enoteca Rossa – Fair
Frank’s Pizza – Poor
La Grazie (Sorrento) – Excellent
Luna Pizzeria – Fair
Mazcalzone (Shepherd) – Satisfactory
North Italia – Good
Piola – Satisfactory
Pizaro’s (Memorial) – Good
Solario – Good
My old favorite Dolce Vita, which I had not eaten at in a while until the other evening, has been the best of the local versions so far. It’s such a good place, with other enticing small plates and pastas plus a terrific, interesting wine list to complement their top-notch Italianate pizzas. Solario has been the second best, and an improvement over their early days when I last visited.
Many more to go. Please check back.
