Pizetta's Pizza

Pizetta Pizza has not been around for very long in Wilmington, but it rivals the big dogs of pizza in our town. It is located on Oleander Dr. next to Tazy's Burgers and across from Flaming Amy's. It is where Cosmo's Pizza used to be. It opened up a few months ago i was surprised at how good it was.

Sauce: Really great flavor and consistency. Has enough oregano and seasonings in it. The sauce is savory, not sweet. They also put just the right amount of sauce on the pizza.

Cheese: The cheese is very good. They put a lot of it on the pizza and it is high quality. It also has just the right amount of greasiness to it.

Crust: The under crust is thin, crispy and has a good taste all on its own. Definitely one of the best crusts out there. The outer crust could use a little work. It has the same great flavor, but it can get a little too crispy and hard.

Toppings: Toppings are fresh and have a nice crunch when you bite into them. Also, they put plenty of them on the pie.

Price: The price is a little more than the average price you will find in Wilmington, but this is not your average pizza. I paid like $20 for a large white pizza after tax and it was definitely worth it. It was one of the best white pizzas i have ever had. However, they do have lunch specials for those on a budget.

Atmosphere: The atmosphere is very nice in Pizetta's. The staff are very friendly and seem eager to help wherever they can. Only tables, no booths in the place, but they are nice looking tables. They all have this dark colored wood which makes the restaurant feel very comfortable. It is air conditioned and they make the pizzas right in front for all to see.

Variety: I have had several different types of pizza there so far and they all have been good. I have had the sicilian, the barbeque, the cheese, and the white. It seems that whatever they make you can rest assured that it will be good.

Drawbacks: The price and the crust can be too crispy sometimes.
