text: Go for the thin crust nnOverall experience was wonderful service was attentive straight to the point and not smothery Food at this local pizza joint is high quality you can taste As a chef dining out for a casual lunch I left pleased and with cash still in my pocketnnFirst we had the Roasted Eggplant Bruschetta the baguette was toasted to perfection The crust was crisp with a nice light sourdough flavor and chew not over toasted a bit and still tender on the inside The four baguettes were topped with a beautiful creamy tangy goat cheese The eggplant was beautifully roasted and naturally rich in flavor Sundried tomatoes added a nice acid element to this dish which was served warm with a well balanced Balsamic Reduction nnNext we tried the Smoked Chicken and Broccoli Pizza The crust oh gosh THE CRUST Perfect Thin and crunchy tender caramelized in the wood burning oven to a perfect golden brown The smoked chicken was still moist the broccoli still had a nice bite to it as all vegetables should and had a fantastic roasted flavor No sauce here just a little olive oil and garlic went down before the toppings The Mozzarella and Smoked Provolone were appropriate but a nice nutty Asiago or ParmesanReggiano would have been a welcome touch Bacon Of course we added bacon An Applewood Smoked Bacon Although in recent years bacon and especially Applewood Smoked has been overplayed in the culinary world Nellos kept it organic in style The bacon has a wonderful fatty crunch just the right balance of salt and smoke and cooked just so The half slabs of thick delicious bacon were simply laid over our pizza towards the end of cooking Very pleased this bacon was not chopped up into tiny bits nnThe BananaNut Bread Pudding was tempting but Tiramisu has my heart Being half Italian I know Tiramisu and Nellos has made a great play on this classic dessert First a thick layer of creamy mascarpone was sweetened to not over power the cheese itself The ladyfinger layer held its integrity and was not soaked to the point of sogginess which is a pleasant surprise Another generous layer of mascarpone and a surprisingly thick dusting of cocoa powder was a great touch nnNellos is worth every penny the bill for two of us was just over We left full and happy too many dining experiences can be disappointing if the little details are left out They do not miss a beat David was a fantastic server with an upbeat attitude the rest of the staff was also attentive and helpful Beer and Wine selection is nice as well there is definitely something for everyone here nnLike Nellos on Facebook they post special items with fantastic seasonal ingredients that any food lover would get pumped over nnI will be back time and time again
