Well, on july 4th i was driving back home after fireworks and we drove by my favorite pizza place, Villa Roma. It didnt exist anymore. In its place was a place called "Craig and Davids" or something stupid along those lines. It was now a chicago style hot dog joint. I cried a little inside.
The search was on for a new number one. I had read great things about a place called "Red's Savoy" in saint paul, a few miles down the same street from Villa Roma. It had won numerous magazine awards for Twin Cities best pizza and such.
Last night me, molly and my closest friends (who all appreciate good pizza and were also saddened by the loss of the great Villa Roma) decided to give it a try.
The place inside is very dimly lit and the food took a long time to get there but when it did, it was fucking marvelous! I was worried that the two biggest food critics i know, (my gf molly, and anna, my friend dustins GF) would absolutely hate it but they ordered a veggie pizza and finished the whole thing before us guys could finish our pepperoni... and they said they LOVED it! Success!!! I finally found a place that pleased everyone! upon eating my first bite, i immediately decided that this was to be the replacement as the number one spot on my favorite pizza places of anywhere, ever.
The pizzas come cut "minnesota style" (thin crust cut into small squares) and the sauce has a tiny bit of bite to it but it is the PERFECT spiciness level! the crust is thin but JUST thick enough to hold its shape and not droop over if you pick up a piece.
anyways, i absolutely recommend this place and give it 10 out of 5 stars.
