We went downtown to Joe Momma's Pizza Saturday night and I gotta tell ya, we'll be back. You walk into the place and pass by the guy hand tossing the dough into the air. We sat down and ordered some fried mushrooms as we tried to decide what pies to get. When the mushrooms arrived a popped one in my mouth and instantly wished I was the only person at our table. The best fried mushrooms I've ever had.
Jay and I decided to split a 14" pie, half Lucky #7 (Momma’s red sauce, pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, black olives, red onions, green peppers, and mozzarella cheese) and half Chicken Bacon Ranch (Buttermilk ranch, chicken, thin strips of breakfast
bacon, Roma tomatoes, and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.) Andia and Janina split there own pie. Half Six Cheese (Momma’s red sauce,100% whole milk pizza
crumble mozzarella, parmesan, romano, feta, provolone and cheddar cheeses) and half Betty White (Alfredo sauce, Roma tomatoes, Feta cheese, and crushed black pepper.) Other pies of note on the menu were the T-Rex (Pepperoni, Black Angus beef, sausage, andouille sausage, Italian sausage, salami, breakfast bacon, ham, and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese) and the Judgement Day (Spicy arrabiata sauce, sliced hot link, red hot
buffalo chicken, pepperoni, red bell peppers, habanero shreds and jalapeno peppers.)
Janina had the line of the night. When Andia asked he if she didn't like mushrooms Janina replied, "no, but they're growing on me." I then added an occasional shower would stop that. Also of note that night was the music the place played. All 80's hits. We got some Def Leppard, some Journey and we even got Rick-rolled. Great time.
Joe Momma's Pizza, you rock!
Nice review. We are on the search for the best pizza. So far (our latest) is Mario's NY Pizzaria. We really went there to order pasta without the price tag but waiting for our food found us drooling over a slice of cheese pizza and so we ended up taking one home with us. Nice folding pizza with great flavor.
Another favorite is Pie Hole's pizza with roasted garlic.
And my second favorite, Umberto's. I love their garlic knots. We split one of 1/2 chicken and mushrooms and 1/2 roma and artichoke plus garlic knots for around 11.50.
