Pizza I wanted to love, but can't

by lcmomtobe

I love supporting local businesses and am always up for pizza so i was excited to try Rocket Pizza after a flyer was placed on our front porch this morning.

The crust was good. The pepperoni was yummy, but I didn't care for the ground beef and there was something weird about the cheese, I don't know if it had been left out for a long time or what, but it wasn't good. It was disappointing and with the delivery charge it added up to be 31 (plus tip, delivery guy was super nice so I let him keep the $4) for a large pizza and caesar salad (which was actually SORT of good). Now I know that's not the MOST expensive, but it's a decent amount and I expected to enjoy myself.

The bottom line here is that cheese, for me, on a pizza is the third important ingredient (after sauce and crust) and it ruined it for me. Sad and yuck. :(

• Pros: Very friendly guy on the phone
• Cons: Delivery charge, funky cheese, surcharge for credit card

Killer little neighborhood pizza joint!

by cinnamongirl68

This rivals my favorite pizza. The old Old Town Pizza has always been my fav. This pizza has a cracker crust so if you're into deep dish, this may not be for you. The sauce is perfect, not sweet and not bitter either. The toppings are really good. Huge slices of crispy pepperoni. Not too spicy. This place is tiny. Just one 4 seat table so it's not exactly eat-in. The people are fantastic and Bob still makes his own dough, secret recipe style. Phone in and pick up is the way to go. So tasty. Definitely a new fav.

• Pros: Fabulous pizza, great people.
• Cons: Not eat-in.
