Wood Fired Flatbreads

Last year we thoroughly enjoyed a pizza from this place during Little Italy Days in Bloomfield — it was crispy and flavorful — so this year we were eager to try it again.
Today, we ordered the Mediterranean and paid $ 10 for it. When it came out in a few minutes, the slices were so floppy and undercooked you could barely pick them up, the onions were raw, and it was so salty it was nearly inedible. I managed to choke down part of one slice before my husband took it back to their station. When he asked for a refund or what they could do for him, he was told by the man cooking the pizza that the pizza was fine (although it literally tasted like raw dough), he wasn’t going to do anything about it and, «If you don’t like the way we do our pizza, go to Dominos.»
I am appalled by this horrible customer service and complete disrespect. From now on, we will go anywhere else and make it a point to share this experience with as many people as we can, including multiple individuals who saw the interaction, asked what had happened, and were equally disgusted with the way we were treated.

I stopped by their stand with some friends at Bloomfield Little Italy Days last Fri. I saw their wood-​fired pizza oven trailer the evening before, at which time I decided that I’d like to try their pizza when I returned. Fortunately, they were still there the next evening! My friends were also intrigued, and decided to try some of their pizza, as well.
I ordered a classic Margherita pizza (my standard for judging wood fired pizza), one friend (Friend 1) ordered a mushroom white pizza, and another friend (Friend 2) ordered a four cheese pizza with mushrooms. Since they were busy, the guy waiting on us told us they’d take about 10 min. to be ready, which was no problem for us. In the meantime, we ordered Italian sodas to go with our pizzas – strawberry (me), tangerine (Friend 1), and black raspberry (Friend 2) – which we sipped on while waiting. My soda was on the weak side, and my friend who ordered the tangerine soda said the same (his looked even weaker). My friend who ordered the black raspberry soda seemed to enjoy hers the most, which wasn’t surprising, since it looked the strongest and was the most popular, according to the guy who served us. While I was waiting for my soda, I mentioned to the guy making it that I’d ordered a pizza, as well, and he said I should let him know what I think of it. (I didn’t get a chance to tell him in person, so this review counts as my assessment!)
Since the sodas took a couple of minutes to prepare, we didn’t have to wait much longer for the pizzas, which all were served within about a 2 – 3 min. window. After grabbing some paper towels, we walked around the block to find a place to sit, and after finding one, promptly dug in. I don’t hesitate to claim that my pizza was the best wood-​fired Margherita pie I’ve had in PGH to date! The sauce was well-​seasoned and not too sweet, the fresh mozzarella had a nice tender texture, and unlike one of the versions of this pizza I’ve tried dahntahn, the crust was nice and crispy (win!). My friends and I swapped slices of our pizzas, so I was able to try theirs, and they were both excellent as well. Since I’m a sucker for white pizza, I slightly preferred the white mushroom pizza, which had just enough – but not too much – garlic flavor, but Friend 2’s four cheese pepperoni was very good in its own right – in terms of flavor and ingredients, it was closer to typical American pizza. Although at least two of the pizzas sounded similar from the description of ingredients, each of the pizzas were quite distinct in terms of flavor profile. It was very clear from the taste of the pies that they use high-​quality ingredients.
Aside from the weakness of the Italian sodas, the only minor complaint I have is that by the time my friends and I ate our pizzas, they were cooler than I’d like. However, I can’t blame the vendor for this, as they were served quite hot – it took us awhile to find a place to sit. Also, it appears from their menu that Italian sodas are not a regular offering, so I’m giving them a pass since their pies were so good.
If you see these guys and their wood fired trailer oven at an event, I’d highly recommend ordering a pie from them, since their product is excellent. While I haven’t hired them for an event myself, from my interactions with them, they seem very professional and focused on producing quality goods that will leave customers satisfied. (I also love that all of them wear chef’s hats!) They’re definitely cooking up some of the best wood-​fired pizza in PGH, so give it a try – I’m certain you’ll love it, too!
