Remember the days when your team used to celebrate the season at a classic pizza parlor? You know the type – a little arcade, good grub (plus beer on tap), and some seriously awesome staff. Well, guess what? While those days might feel like a distant memory, there are still a few of those golden-era pizza joints around, and Colonna’s Pizza & Pasta is one of ’em.
Stepping inside feels like you’ve been transported to the heart of New York, complete with NY-style pizza. They’ve even got some killer statues of the Belushi brothers belting out tunes (Moses couldn’t resist having some fun with them) and a few games tucked away in the back. With plenty of seating for your whole crew and a solid selection of beers on tap, it’s a place where good times are practically guaranteed.
We went all-in and ordered the Garlic Knots, a large White Margherita pizza, and a large half pepperoni-half pineapple pie. Let me tell you, the dough was pure perfection, and the red sauce – spot on.
Now, here’s a twist… the pineapple chunks were like escape artists! They were a little too large and had a knack for falling off. Some might say they were on a mission to join SpongeBob at the bottom of the sea (because pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza, Yada, yada, yada). But hey, no matter what people say, that’s a flavor combo worth celebrating!
Moses gives this local pizza joint two thumbs up, and I couldn’t agree more. Go on and savor the nostalgia!
