Fuck.
Your brave pizza adventurers ventured out on the damn green line again. Fortunately, it was a lovely day, and they were in search of pizza, which they found, as planned, at Allston Village Pizza & Grill. It was a strange little pizza - emphasis on little - but that was we ordered. If Umberto's Galleria tasted like cafeteria pizza, this one looked the part.
(...yeah.)
Taste-wise it was a step up. Not pizza, really, but a tasty food product. We have decided to call that product "tasty cheesy bread with stuff" because, given that it lacked sauce almost entirely, it is a more accurate description. That said, the cheese was plentiful and good. The pepperoni and sausage were pretty much as anticipated. The crust was fluffy. It was a tasty fluffy crust, but it was undeniably fluffy, and lacking in sauce.
So all in all, if we found ourselves in Allston in need of sustenance, we would neither flee in terror nor seek alternative food solutions from their decent-sized menu.
As for their atmosphere: a resounding meh. A little depressing, even. Three tables, 2 dingy soda machines. Random guy behind the counter who had trouble understanding our order. Still, he gave us our pizza (the order was correct) and left us alone. We didn't even feel like he was hovering, which is kind of a feat in a place that size.
(O HAY THAR)
So, pizza questers, we have once again journeyed on the green line so you don't have to. You can thank us once we find the elusive Jersey pizza in gift certificates.
STATS:
Pros! :)
- good & plentiful cheese
- hilarious NPR stories playing
- no sauce
- dingy
