Pizzano's Pizza and Stromboli (5875 Sawmill Rd, Dublin, OH - (614) 766-0000)

Hype: We weren't really planning on eating here or anything. We were up in Dublin, OH picking up something that you can only get there. We were going to get some pie in Grandview, but that will have to wait for another day. So we just saw it from the road. It was a stark contrast to the endless suburban shit.

Scene: Looks like they do a lot of carry-out and lunch. I bet the Stromboli and Gyros are popular with the Dublin officeguy set. Best party: Ms. Pac-man tabletop machine. Check it out...

The Pie:

Crust- Neither of us were impressed. Thin, not toasty. Bland. Perhaps purchased frozen from a supplier.

Sauce- Not so great. Bland.

Cheese- GREAT! Lots of it. The real deal. A little browned too.

Peps- Pretty good. Nothing to shit your pants over, but they were toasty, peppy and nice.

Overall: Not an impressive pie, but the cheese, peps, and Ms. Pac-man machine saved the day.

All in all we would rate this place as a 3--5 pie joint!!!!
