Voltero's Pizza

Very tasty cheesesteak!  I wanted the fries to be a little crisper, but Miko likes them soft.

Good LORD this slice of pizza was giant!  We were totally surprised by how good it was.  Miko's hand is there to show the scale.

Notes: 

• We liked the cashier a lot -- he was very nice and pleasant, and confident in his recommendations.
• We were surprised by how good everything tasted!
• We thought we were ordering small, since we only got a sandwich and a slice to share.  We did not know that the slice would be ENORMOUS -- like 4 slices of pizza in one!  We were both full, and I had quite a bit of leftover pizza afterward.
• The pizza dough was crispy on the outside, just the right level between doughy and fluffy in between.  It didn't have too much sauce on it, either.
• Between this and Rosa's, we have been pleasantly surprised by the pizza on Convoy!  If we wanted to eat pizza, which we rarely do, we would totally come up here rather than eat the Uptown hipster pizza in our neighborhoods.

Rosa's Pizza

The light wasn't very good, but you can just barely see the delicious cheese crust along the side!

Rating: Two thumbs up (Three, including Glennis.)
Date: 10/2/11
Time in: 6:40 PM
Time out: 7:12 PM

Servers' recommendations: Hawaiian pizza.
What we ordered: One slice of Hawaiian pizza.

Number in our party: 3
Final check amount: $3.78
Notes:  

• We were really not excited to try Rosa's Pizza -- when we try places on Convoy, we're usually in the mood for Asian cuisine.
• It's a teeny place with nowhere to sit inside.
• But it was surprisingly good!  Neither of us are that big on pizza, but if wanted any, we would come here again.
• It smelled delicious inside.
• It had mini-X-factor. (A post explaining the X-factor is coming soon!)
