Summary Review: 4.5 stars (out of 5)
Detailed Review:
Crust: True to its local-themed advertising, the crust at Summa Joe’s is the thin crust commonly seen on southern-style pizzas. The crust has a nice crispy texture. Thin crust is not my favorite style of pizza, but this crust is good for what it is. Score: 9/10.
Sauce: As usual given the thin crust, there is very little sauce on this pizza. What little sauce that does exist blends well with the rest of pizza. Score: 6/10.
Cheese: The pizza is well-cheesed, and the cheese produces very little grease. Sprinkling on some provided parmesan adds to the flavor. Score: 10/10.
Toppings: Summa Joe’s spicy sausage is not that spicy; it comes in big gobs and has a nice fresh taste. The pepperoni comes in small freshly cut chunks. The ham is unremarkable. All toppings appear in high quantity. Score: 9/10.
Overall Taste: The toppings give a nice blend of flavors that few pizzas can match, and they are the main thing you taste on this pizza. It would be nice to taste the cheese and sauce more. Score: 9/10.
Pizza Appearance: The toppings take center stage on this pizza’s appearance: the pizza looks loaded with toppings.
Dining Atmosphere: The dining area was an overcrowded zoo when I came here on a Wednesday evening, partly because Wednesday is kids eat free cheese pizza night. I sat outside, which also featured plenty of people and kids running around.
Customer Service: The service was excellent, friendly, and
efficient.
Monetary Value: The quality is excellent, and the price is reasonable
given the quality. Summa Joe’s does not make
cheap pizza, but the value is better than you would expect for this price.
The Final Judgment:
Summa Joe’s is an Anderson
institution, and if you come here you will learn why. Their menu offers a wide selection of food
choices, and their pizza is a thin crust version of nearby Mellow Mushroom,
both of which I like very much. Score: 86/100.
