🍕 Rochester Pizza Special

🍕 Rochester Pizza Special｜Amore by Wegmans: Here for That Crispy Thin Crust! In Rochester, Wegmans is not just a shopping paradise; its surroundings have quietly fostered a unique food ecosystem. This time, following a friend's recommendation, I visited Amore, an Italian restaurant right next to Wegmans. The core takeaway from this visit is crystal clear: Save ample room for the "pizza cravings" in your heart—other dishes might just be supporting acts in this feast! 😋 📍 Location & First Impressions: A Cozy Eatery Next to the Supermarket The restaurant is located at 1750 East Ave, adjacent to the landmark Wegmans supermarket, making parking and access extremely convenient. The interior is warm, clean, and tidy, with warm lighting and simple Italian decor creating a comfortable atmosphere for gatherings. It's perfect for a casual weekend meal with friends or a treat for yourself after a big grocery run. 🌟 The Undisputed Star: The Delightful Thin-Crust Pizza 🍕 Amore's pizza is the undeniable star and highlight of this exploration! Crust Mastery: They specialize in thin-crust pizza. The dough, fully fermented and baked in a high-heat oven, achieves a perfect crispy texture with attractive leoparding on the cornicione, emitting a pure aroma of wheat and charcoal. The satisfying first bite and the audible "crunch" are the best compliments to the pizzaiolo's skill. Toppings & Flavor: The topping selections are classic but shine through freshness and sincerity. Whether it's the freshness of a Margherita or the richness of Italian sausage, all toppings harmonize perfectly with the savory cheese and well-balanced tomato sauce. Most importantly, it offers great value for money. In today's market where pizzas often cost $20+, it delivers satisfying bang for your buck. Strong Recommendation: If you're here for pizza, ordering pizza directly will not disappoint. You might even want to try a couple of different flavors! 🍝 The Satisfactory Pasta: A Filling Choice with Generous Sauce The pasta we tried performed relatively steadily. The sauce was very generously applied, coating each strand of noodle evenly, and the taste was authentic. However, perhaps because our palates were first captivated by the pizza, the pasta itself didn't deliver a "wow" moment. It's a safe choice—won't disappoint but lacks memorability. That said, the portion size is indeed substantial and guaranteed to fill you up. 🍰 The Skippable Dessert: A Tiramisu Letdown A minor regret of this experience was the dessert—the Tiramisu. Its texture differed from what we expected of a freshly made version with moist ladyfingers and creamy mascarpone. It tasted somewhat hard and lacked airiness, more like a product that had been stored in a freezer for too long, with both flavor and texture compromised. To be honest, it did give the impression of being "served straight from the Wegmans cooler next door." Unless you have a serious sweet tooth, you might consider saving your budget here. 💰 Spending Guide & Ultimate Ordering Strategy For three people, including pizza, pasta, dessert, and drinks, the per-person cost was around $50. In retrospect, the pasta and dessert raised the average cost. Optimal Strategy (Highlight!): Strongly suggest focusing on pizza! Ordering one or two more pizzas in different flavors, paired with a salad or appetizer, can bring the per-person cost down to a more comfortable $30-35 range. This way, you enjoy the best dishes while getting great value. Scenario Suggestion: This place is ideal for sharing with friends in a relaxed setting with attentive service. Sharing a couple of steaming-hot pizzas during a weekend lunch or dinner would be a thoroughly enjoyable experience. 📝 Verdict: A Destination for Pizza In summary, Amore is a neighborhood restaurant with distinct strengths and weaknesses. It's not an all-rounder, but in the specific category of thin-crust pizza, it definitely has what it takes to rank among Rochester's best. Think of it as a delicious pit stop after your supermarket trip or simply as a destination to satisfy your pizza cravings. Remember our motto: "Head straight for the pizza, double the happiness!" 🎉 #Rochester#UniversityOfRochester#RIT#RochesterFood#Pizza#Wegmans#StudyAbroad#ItalianFood#FoodReview#ThinCrustPizza
