Pizza Rock Hsinchu 新竹店「8:00為最後點餐時間，Last Call 20:00」 — Restaurant in Hsinchu

Well, that's a difficult one to review... If you compare it to your global pizza chain I'd say 4-5 stars. But reading the founder's history, how he went to Italy in search of an authentic pizza, I came here with the expectation to enter an Italian bubble. Not really...

The crust: See the pic, not too bad, but the stone could definitely do with a bit more oomph :) The dough is a bit on the blunt side - a higher portion of fermented dough would definitely be helpful to flavor and texture while, now I know about this fine line in Taiwan, a tad more salt would also open up the flavor. In conclusion, it's not too bad but it leans towards a mass-produced dough rather than one which was created with love.

The toppings: Nice prosciutto! But very cheese heavy.

That's also somehow reflected on the menu. Meat-lovers. Quattro staggioni with pineapple.

No hospitality pros at...

I was really looking forward to this after having a good meal at the Zhubei branch, but it was just ok. I ordered a Hawaiian (don’t judge me for that) and it came with very little ham and loads of cheese which drowned out the other flavors and made it soggy. The service was very meh too - not very friendly or attentive. One star off for selling out of medium pizzas too (how is that even possible?). Overall very disappointing and just very meh. Also feel that it’s overpriced (about $30 more than average). On the upside,the decor is nice. I wouldn’t go back based...

I reached here at 8.30 and ordered lot of stuff and since I liked garlic bread a lot I ordered one more at 8.58 but the vendor was so arrogant that they didn't take my order since they said they can't accept orders after 9 ..it's so arrogant way of not accepting orders when you reached on time and placed your order within time .. I...
