Desi's Pizzeria Review – Buffalo, NY

Price$24.99 · Large cheese pepperoni
LocationBuffalo, NY

Desi's Pizzeria is on Clinton Street in Buffalo. Chris Monroe recommended it on review.pizza.

The order

Joe ordered a large cheese pepperoni for $24.99, in what looked like a 16-inch box. It came sealed for freshness with a double plastic table, a good amount of cup and char and a real outer crust.

First bite

Light browning with a little darkening underneath. Joe tasted what he thought might be garlic butter on the crust, with a little sweetness.

Crust, sauce, cheese and toppings

  • Crust: Medium thick, starting to flirt with thick, but cooked nicely. The back crust bite is delish. It's not often Joe likes the back better, but he went back for a second bite.
  • Sauce: Sweet, but a good sweet.
  • Cheese: A nice amount of it.
  • Pepperoni: Good.

The verdict

Sweet but not too sweet, cheesy, cooked nicely, with a fantastic outer crust. It's right up the alley of Buffalo style pizza. Joe gave it an 8.3, all for under 25 bucks.
