Short story: sauce is spicy and made me not feel like I was getting to enjoy pizza. I can’t be 100% sure, but the crust may have been previously frozen. This was our first and last time trying Lorenzo’s. If it’s too spicy for mom, there’s no way the kids will eat this.
I don’t leave reviews. That’s not my thing. But when I’m this upset about pizza, I feel like I need to say something. I was getting alone time at home while my family was at a birthday party. I thought it would be a great time to try Lorenzo’s for the family while being lucky enough to order a speciality pizza only I would like.
I ordered a small margherita pizza and small salad. Salad was normal. That’s not what I’m writing about.
With my first bite and a few chews of the pizza, my mouth started to notice something was spicy. Margherita pizza isn’t meant to be spicy so I finished my first bite and for the odd lingering stinging to go away before I began to investigate. I tried some of the sauce on its own and immediately realized that’s what was giving all the heat.
I then took a slice, took the toppings off, wiped and soaked up as much sauce as I could from both the toppings and crust, and put the toppings back on. The pizza looked horrible (I know I caused that). I ate some more and just gave up. I couldn’t enjoy this because, like I said, Margherita pizza isn’t meant to be spicy. I was looking forward to a savory meal and couldn’t enjoy this as one.
Lastly there is a possibility that the was maybe previously frozen. As the cook in our house 99.8% of the time, I’ve made plenty of homemade pizzas. Mostly with fresh dough, and occasionally with a frozen pizza crust which I have to thaw first. I also worked at a pizza chain as a teen and made dough fresh. The crust on my pizza tonight had the features of a previously...
Read moreUpdate Ordered delivery again. Lorenzo's uses slice and door dash. Again order was incomplete. Driver was kind enough to ask me to call the store and he would return to the store and bring me the missing item. Talking with driver and the store got 2 different excuses. Driver said he asked if there was anything else and told no, and given the incomplete order. Store stated they told him to grab the missing item before leaving and arrogantly stated the driver was lying. Is it really the responsibility of Door Dash driver, who is not an employee of the restaurant, responsibility to check and ensure an order is complete and accurate when picking up a delivery? I think not. 3rd time for delivery and not once done correct. The food was not as good as previous orders also. No more...
Read moreThis was my second time trying Lorenzo’s and it sure will be my last. I am not one to have high expectations for any type of carry out, but this was ridiculous. This evening I placed an order that included 10 chicken wings, a medium pizza, and a drink. When I got home I was shocked with what I got. They were not wings but instead some sort of chicken nugget that seemed like the last bunch of a frozen bag (pic attached). The pizza was chewy and extremely greasy, almost seemed like a day old reheated pizza in the same box. All this for $33. Like I said, I don’t set high expectations but this type of experience is not something I was expecting to receive from a local business....
