With the recent closing of the pizza restaurant Chubby Charlie’s, there is a new one that opened in its place. Carlo’s Pizza is a similarly styled restaurant selling not only pizza and bread, but other great foods including subs, pretzels, French fries, and other foods. Now with it taking a similar stature to the restaurant that came before it, the question is: is it worth it to take a piece of the pie?
One of the restaurant’s greatest strengths is its wait time. When ordering it online, it’s said that the maximum amount of time it would take to cook and deliver an extra-large pizza, a box of eight pieces of bread, a box of pretzels, and a box of fries would be 45 minutes. Not only that, but the food was delivered 15 minutes earlier than the estimated time, the food had also arrived fresh and hot, making it perfect to eat. When it arrived, the person delivering was very nice and displayed great customer service.
The second greatest strength of this restaurant is the prices of their food. Their food is well-priced and worth the cost. The cost of an extra-large pizza and eight pieces of bread was only around 25 dollars. Their prices are lower than they could be when compared to what other competing restaurants sell. Not only that, but they also do not charge extra for delivery, so there is much less worry for those who do not wish to pick up food. This makes this restaurant great for families on a budget and do not want to pay too much money for delivery food.
Another highpoint of Carlo’s Pizza is their bread. The bread is very soft, warm and has a great flavor. It was buttery, salty and cheesy, but not so cheesy that it became too much. The sesame seeds add a nice and unique texture to the bread that makes it even better. This bread is amazing and well sized, which makes it a must have if you decide to buy food from this restaurant.
Not only were this restaurant’s main dishes great, but their sides are great as well. While a little under salted, the pretzels had great flavor. And paired with their cheese, they tasted even better. Their French fries are thick and cooked nicely, they have great flavor to them. Overall, their sides are a great addition to an order and are well worth trying.
This restaurant’s pizza was also wonderful. While it may have been a little thin, it was still soft and cooked nicely. The sauce is amazing, it was very flavorful and was coated well. They also have great cheese, it pulls well and was added well enough to where there was a lot on, but not too much. The best part of their pizzas is the way they top them. They put on the perfect number of toppings, and the toppings themselves are high quality, and make the pizza taste great. The pizza is also elevated when paired with their sauce. The only thing that could be seen as lesser is the amount of grease on the pizza.
Though this restaurant is relatively new, it has displayed many of the qualities of a previously established and amazing restaurant. It has many strong points; the food tastes great, the food is priced well, and their wait time is very quick. While there may be some things that could be fixed, their strengths greatly outweigh their flaws. Overall, Carlo’s Pizza is a great restaurant and well worth calling in for an order.
