If I would've known that this place was only 7 minutes away from where I live.. I would've went there along time ago.
Well, let's cut a slice out of this pizza and dig in.
Above the Crust is one of my favorite little cozy neighborhood pizza places that really delivers ( no pun intended) a massive punch of flavor for all of their food.
Went there around 1ish, just in time for lunch and when we first walked in we were immediately greeted with " Hi, Hello, Welcome in". That right there was a big thumbs up for me cause that don't happen allot, well not allot for me. The ambience of the restaurant is just perfect for a small group or just for a couple looking for a bite to eat.
They have a very good menu with some things that makes your mouth water from just reading what they are on the menu. I forgot what the lady's name was that was at the front but she was awesome at answering our questions at letting us know about lunch specials and about what drinks they had and desserts.
What we got was.
Hot honey garlic chicken fingers and fries
Cajun chicken wings with fries
Buffalo Chicken Pizza
2 garlic pepperoni rolls
1 regular garlic roll
And a salad.
First and for most, I highly recommend the hot honey chicken fingers, they were just perfect, I haven't had any chicken fingers with this sauce EVER. They were fresh and the fries were very good but lacked any type of seasoning BUT, they have salt and pepper shakers so that was fine with me.
The chicken wings were nice and crispy and that Cajun seasoning,I swear I can put that stuff on everything, it was a very bold flavor and tbh, there was some fries that had the seasoning on them and that right there might be the best thing to accidently happen cause that seasoning is magic.
The buffalo chicken pizza was recommended and I can see why. The chicken was nice and crispy, the dough was heavenly, the sauce was very nice BUT, I could've used more on the pizza but that's for next time. The crust was amazingly good and it had a buttery taste to it that made the pizza stand out just a little more.
The regular garlic rolls are good BUT if your want more bang for you buck, the pepperoni garlic rolls are on point, I could eat a bakers dozen of them thangs and call it a day.
Overall Above the crust is a very solid pizza place with a inviting and knowledgeable staff. If your in the area and are getting tired of pizza places like Napoli's or Angelina's and what something that's just the right amount of taste and difference, Above the Crust is literally Above the Crust ( all puns intended).
