Joe’s Pizza

Joe’s Pizza
122 S 16th St
Philadelphia PA 19102

Tonight we went to Joe’s Pizza. I got eggplant parm pizza. You have to order from the counter, so there are no waiters. The pizza crust is flaky, the cheese is hard and moist, and the eggplant parm and tomato sauce is yummy.

My brother got hot wings. He said they were delicious. I got cranberry cocktail to drink which was good.

My grandfather said the pizza was fair. My dad says it is like old fashioned pizza. The wings are hot.

Good day everybody.

I give it 3 1/2 slices.

Revolution House

Revolution House
200 Market Steet
Philadelphia, PA 19106

We went to Revolution House to start up the blog again. We chose Revolution House because it is our favorite pizza restaurant. I have written about the food before so today I am writing about the atmosphere of Revolution House, so lets get going.

The side door to the kitchen was open so people can see Luka (the pizza chef) making food. They opened the doors to the street so you can watch them cook from the sidewalk as well. The deck roof is open too. You get a good look at Market Street from the balcony.

When you order tater-tots you get mustard and ketchup but we did not get the ketchup. Pizza at Revolution House still is the best. First the dough is crunchy and then it is chewy.

The waiter cleans up the table real quick. He also gave me a pen and paper to write notes; that’s nice.

Good night see you next blog.

I give it 4.0 slices. for atmosphere.

Birra

Birra
1700 Passyunk Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19148

Today we went to Birra’s pizza and got cheeseburger pizza. A cheeseburger pizza is a pizza with cheeseburger toppings. The pizza’s crust is gooey and great. The ground beef is well done (I like it that way). They use bread and butter pickles not dell pickles. The cheese is provolone, it is melted and stringy. The pizza has big tomatoes, they look and taste like they’re from a can. It smells a bit like a burger. The lettuce is crunchy like normal. All together the pizza tastes like a burger, is really filling and is excellent!

I give Birra’s pizza three and one half slices out of four!

I give this place 3.5 slices.

Cosmi’s Deli

Cosmi’s Deli
1501 South 8th Street
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Today, instead of going out for pizza, we went to Cosmi’s Deli. We all got cheesesteaks because they won lots of awards. You can get the cheesesteak with a Sarcone’s roll or a Liscio’s roll. We picked a Sarcone’s because we go to Sarcone’s and plus Sarcone’s has seeds and Liscio’s doesn’t. We could pick 4 or 5 types of cheeses but we picked whiz. I don’t really know how the good the meat is because I haven’t had another cheesesteak in 7 months. The cheesesteak meat is chewy and I think the cheese looks like nacho cheese and tastes like nacho cheese but it’s not as spicy as nacho cheese. If you want to come to Cosmi’s with a big party, do not stay because they won’t have enough chairs. They only have 4 chairs.

I rate Cosmi’s 4 cheesesteaks which is 4 stars.

I give this place 4 steaks!

Celebres

Celebres
1536 Packer Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19145

Today we went to Celebres near the sports stadiums. We got the Old Way pizza which is instead of the cheese being on the top, the cheese is on the bottom. Because the cheese is on the bottom, sometimes when you bite it the cheese pulls off under the sauce. The dough is thick and hard and crunchy. The sauce is thick and not runny. The cheese is in a thin layer and it’s mozzarella.

The server was nice because she takes pictures for you and helps you and stuff.

I give this place 3.75 stars because it’s almost as good as it gets.

I give this place 3.75 stars.

Ardé Osteria & Pizzeria

Ardé Osteria & Pizzeria
133 North Wayne Ave.
Wayne, PA 19087
(484) 580-6786

The pizza has less yeast than most pizza places. The pizza is like pizza from Italy. The pizza sauce is like smooth and hot and the crust is thin and crunchy. The cheese is super fresh and melted along the pizza. The service is excellent because they tell you what all the stuff is made of and we knew the owner so we got free desert. They have pictures against the walls.

I’d give this place 5 slices if I could have.

Uncle Oogie’s

Uncle Oggie’s
36 E Snyder Avenue
Philadelphia, PA 19148

Tonight we went to Uncle Oogies. When we got here, I asked where Uncle Oogie was and the worker said he wasn’t here. She said his real name is Lou but he is called Uncle Oogie because his nephew when he was little couldn’t say Uncle Louie so he said Uncle Oogie.

The pizza is hot. The cheese is on top of everything except the crust. It’s not spotty like it is with fresh mozzarella. The bottom of the crust is sort of thin. There is not a lot of tomato sauce and the pizza is sort of juicy.

You order by the slice and they have three locations. I give this pizza 3.5 stars.

I give this place 3.5 stars.

Rosa’s Fresh Pizza

Rosa’s Fresh Pizza
25 S 11th Street
Philadelphia, PA 19107

Today we went to Rosas. I ordered a plain slice. The pizza is cheesy, it has a lot of cheese. There is a lot of tomato sauce under the cheese. The crust is thin. Each slice is only a dollar. They only sell by the slice.

Editors note: When we arrived just around noon on a Saturday, they were playing very loud rap on the in-house system, which they turned down to a more reasonable volume when we walked in. The problem isn’t the rap (as much as I dislike it), the problem was the increasing explicit lyrics that eventually led in a song where every other word seemed to rhyme with either “truck” or “itch”. The owner knew there small children were there, and was aware of what was playing because he turned the music down when we walked in. I will not be going there again, for this reason, and this reason only.

I give this place 3 stars.

Nomad Pizza Company – 2nd Course

Nomad Pizza Company
611 South 7th Street
Philadelphia, PA 19147

This is a guest post by Carl

Today, we went to Nomad. The pizza is very chewy and puffy and good. And drinks they only had water with lemon because all the other drinks are alcoholic and you have to be over 21. They gave you sharp knives. We got to sit near the front where they make the pizza. Their oven is round and has fire in it. They put the pizza in the back of the oven because its hotter back there but they dont put it right near the fire. We ordered a margherita pizza.

I give this puzza 4 stars.

Editors notes:
1. Carl is doing todays blog because Jacob didn’t come because he was punished for not doing his homework.
2. We were goig to order another one but we saw some staff members (including pizza makers) use their phones and handle money and not wash their hands.

I give it all 4 stars!

Revolution House – 2nd Course

Revolution House
200 Market Street
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Today we went to Revolution House. We reviewed Revolution House before but we came back to see if it was still the same. Today I ordered margherita pizza and Carl ordered half margherita and half plain. And my uncle ordered margherita pizza too. The inner crust is thin. The cheese is fresh mozzarella and it was good! The sauce is tomatoey because its real tomatos. The crust is chewy. Carl adds that they don’t have root beer but they have birch beer. The chef, David, let us watch him make our pizza. He was nice. Carl added that chef Lucca was nice last time. I rate it a 5 but 4 is the highest.

Uncles note: The staff is one of the friendliest around. And Carl added that The Yogurt Bar is good too. You should go there.

Uncles note: we came during happy hour and the pizza was half price.

I give this place 4 stars!

Rustica

Rustica Pizza
903 North 2nd Street
Philadelphia, PA 19123

Today we went to Rustica. I ordered plain pizza. The cheese is hard and not stringy. The crust is hard and there was not much tomato sauce on the pizza. They sell the pizza by the slice. Inside the dough is fresh. There is a TV with sound and it’s really loud. I give this pizza 3.5 stars because the outside crust is a little too hard.

I give this place 3.5 stars.

Jacob at Rustica

McGillin’s Olde Ale House

McGillin’s Olde Ale House
1310 Drury Street
Philadelphia, PA 19107

Today we went to McGillin’s. The pizza here is thin and the cheese is stringy. I don’t think it’s made in a brick oven. There is just the right amount of tomato sauce. They have other types of pizza besides plain. I also had some hot wings, which were very hot.

Editors note: While McGillin’s is not a pizza place as such, we stopped here on a whim instead of going to Chinatown for lunch on Saturday. Zayda, who’s never happy anywhere, and usually eats like a bird, managed to finish a giant meatball sandwich and a slice of pizza. It’s very kid friendly during the day.

I give this place 4 stars.
