In my feeble-hearted search for regional pizza chains I can't believe I hadn't heard of Pizza Plus until this outing, and boy was I missing out. My cheese pizza had a Ratio of 3cr/2ce/2ch. Their dough gets a 5 out of 5 from me. Its texture was perfect with a buttery bottom. While a few sections of the bottom looked like they were undercooked, every bite tasted perfect.
For overall quality, Pizza Plus gets a 4 out of 5. I think the sauce could have been spread a more evenly, and a bit more of it would have been appreciated. While the crust was delicious, we didn't need so much of it in that outer circle. I know I'm being hard on my dear new friends, but even 1 out of 5 is Still a pizza and I'd eat it gladly if the other components can stand on their own.
Speaking of standing on their own, I give Pizza Plus's sauce a 3 out of 5. It's good, yes. But it's completely average. It could have come from a pizza sauce can with no alterations made to qualify a 'recipe'. For style, I give Pizza Plus a 4 out of 5. Their salad bar was beautiful and I loved the worn down leather booths, with a mini booth for me. There was kind of an old movie theme with the decor. I sat under a poster with the 100 best movie quotes. Six of them were from Casablanca and one of them was "My Precious" from The Two Towers... what a great quote. They had fun gumball machines, priced at a legendary 25 cents, and a claw machine. But there were no arcade games, which aren't mandatory. I guess the character of the place is there and it's great, but the pizza isn't much different from what you'd get anywhere else, and the vibe doesn't lean to my sensibilities.
With a Final score of 80%, I'd love to visit Pizza Plus again ASAP and invite everyone I know to join me.
