3/5⚡️⚡️⚡️
Solid pizza spot! Not the best I’ve ever had but definitely has potential to be the go to spot in the city.
I went with the chicken vodka slice to try something different while I waited on my pie. The slice came out tearing down the middle because of a thin spot in the dough. Not the end of the world, but some extra quality control there would go a long way.
Overall, the pizza was pretty greasy, and the cheese didn’t quite hit that ooey-gooey taste - more on the clunky side if you know what I mean.
That said, I really have to give props to their dough. By the time you get to the crust, you actually want to eat it, which says a lot. The texture there was a win.
Where I was most let down was the customer service. Walking in, there wasn’t a hello, no quick recommendations, nothing to make you feel welcomed - it honestly felt like I was bothering them. I get the whole NY/NJ slice shop vibe, but this is Florida, and a little warmth goes a long way. Didn’t feel disrespected, just… not welcomed.
All that being said, I respect the buzz around Santoro’s. They’ve got the fanfare, they’ve got the pieces, and with some tweaks they could easily be the best in the Bay. Excited to see where they go from here.
