It's a shame. A crying shame. How do you mess up pizza? Clever name, Five50 (the temp of the oven) and the name Shawn McClain attached to this, how can this be so bad? I thought Sage was terribly overrated, but I had high hopes for Five50. \n\nWe started out with a couple apps, sampled four different pies (which we we able to do halves on) and finished with a few desserts.\n\nSmall Plates:\n\nPepperoni Arancini- Rice Balls, Red Sauce and Roasted Garlic Aioli. $12. Three small arancinis, they were pretty good.\n\nPigs and Truffles- Pork Shoulder Cannelloni, Bordeaux Spinach, Bechamel and Summer Truffles. $18.  I'm a sucker for bechamel. That intrigued me more than the truffles. This was pretty outstanding.\n\nSignature Pizzas are 16\". \n\nNorth Beach- Clams, Smoked Mozzarella, Sweet Onions, Oregano. By far one of the weirdest tasting pizzas I've ever had. I think what threw me off the most was the sauce. I'm used to a clam pizza with a white sauce. The red sauce did not pair well, even worse was the smoked mozzarella. I felt like I was eating BBQ. It was terrible.\n\nBlanca- Mozzarella, Ricotta, Bel Paese, White Chedder, Olive Oil, Garlic, Basil. This was decent, the ricotta was the best part. \n\nTruffle- Truffle Salami, Bechamel, Parmesan, Thyme, Shaved Truffles. Would you like a side of oil to go with that? Wow, only thing I saw on this pizza was oil. Someone call  the nearest Cath Lab and book a room for me? I couldn't finish my slice, it was terribly overwhelming. \n\nMargherita- Tomato, Buffalo Mozzarella and Basil. This was pretty standard. Nothing to write home about. \n\nAt $28 a pizza, you walk away thinking, \"did that really just happen?\" \n\nDesserts:\n\nWarm Apple Pie & French Toast Cubes. Both made up for the horendous pizza. \nSkip this place.
