Summary Review: 4 stars (out of 5)
Detailed Review:
Crust: Lubrano’s only makes large pizzas, but for individuals they sell reheated pizza by the slice. The crust is thin and crispy, kind of what you would expect for reheated pizza. While reheated pizza never has the best crust, this crust is near the top of its pizza category. Score: 8/10.
Sauce: True to the New York style, the sauce does not appear in high quantity, but it has a nice tomatoey taste. Score: 7/10.
Cheese: The cheese comes in two types: a layer under the pepperoni and a few shreds scattered atop the sausage. The bottom layer is thick, stringy, and yummy. The shredded top layer does not add much to the pizza. Also, this cheese produces quite a bit of grease. Score: 8/10.
Toppings: The pepperoni has just the right amount of spiciness. The sausage is a somewhat bland mild Italian sausage, and they used the strips rather than the chunks on my pizza because the chunks were frozen. Both toppings appear in high quantity. Score: 9/10.
Overall Taste: The overall taste is a little on the flavorless side, but it is not bad for reheated pizza. Score: 14/20.
Pizza Appearance: The appearance is odd due to the slices of sausage.
Dining Atmosphere: Lubrano’s has a purely functional no-frills dining room.
Customer Service: The service is
counter service, and it was fine despite the fact that the menu is very
complicated.
Monetary Value: The price seems high, but this was basically dinner
for two people. The pizza slices are
big, so in fact the value is pretty good.
The Final Judgment:
Lubrano’s is a nice pizza option, especially if you are in
need of large pizzas. Score: 82/100.
