Pizzeria Verità — Restaurant in Burlington

Things we loved: Their gluten-free options! Not only is there a GF crust, but they also offer a dedicated GF oven for 3 of their pizzas, very thoughtful!

Our server was very lovely, I wish we had gotten his name so we could give him the props he deserves! He was young, had a great personality, knew the menu well, and knew when to interject and when to walk away. In other words, he knew how to read the table which was greatly appreciated.

The atmosphere was great, we loved the intimacy and lighting of the front room. It was a little loud in there, but not a big deal. The cocktails were ON point! They were creative and delicious, and the presentation was a treat.

Our beet salad was also delicious! The richness of the avocados and the texture of the microgreens complimented the beets perfectly.

The Mais pizza was fun because of its unique flavors, the topping combination was definitely something I had never had before or would think to make. We were very pleased with this choice.

And... we were there on a Wednesday, which is the 2-for-1 Margherita Pizza deal! Which of course we participated in...

Things that could be improved: The topping spread on both the Mais and Margherita did not reach the edges of the pizza, actually, it was quite sparse along the edge of the Margherita, with a 1.5" space between the topping and the edge of the crust in some areas. When you have a 12" pizza, that is a good amount of topping-free real estate. As a pizza enthusiast, the toppings near the crust edge are something I always look out for. We are gluten-free, so we ordered the GF crust. Now in Pizzeria Verita's defense, their regular crust edge bubbles up. I assume the kitchen team is trained to place a certain amount of topping on each pizza to accommodate the rising crust. And this makes sense for the regular crust, but there doesn't seem to be any adjustment to their methods for the GF crust that does not rise at the edge. So instead, the GF Margherita pizza looked sparse and thrown together when it arrived at our table. We also ended up not eating the topping-less edges (about ¼ of the pizza) since it was really just a plain, thick, chewy cracker. (The pizza below shows one of the better slices.)

Margherita pizzas generally have 3 main ingredients: tomato (in some form), mozzarella, and basil. There was very little basil on our pizza, maybe 3 basil leaves on the entire pizza. Since this 12” pizza has 3 main ingredients and costs ~$18 (over $22 with a GF crust), I would hope some more basil could be spared in the future Margherita pizzas. Although mozzarella is delicious, the basil is what really brings the flavor party!

Overall we had a good time and we really appreciate the things we loved about our visit. When we go out to eat we always ask ourselves, would we return? And we both decided we would not return, it was a fun experience and a great 'one and...

I want to give this place 5 stars, I really do. Usually our experience here is quite pleasant. Great vibes, good food, and usually favorable service. Our most recent experience here was less than favorable. I ordered my usual Mais pizza, and my husband decided to take advantage of their 'Buy one get one free' Margherita pizza deal (yay!). While placing our order, the waitress suggested that my husband 'wait until he's finished with the first one' before getting a second pizza for himself. We were both completely taken aback... last time I checked it wasn't in a servers best interest to forecast a patrons needs and wants. My husband is a young, professional athlete, who can easily indulge in two PERSONAL sized pizzas. We were both so taken aback that he sort of just said 'okay?'. We chalked it up to her wanting to serve the other pizza warm. After waiting about 30 minutes for our food (longer than it usually takes, I'll give them that) My Mais pizza came out with no creme sauce (which is DELICIOUS). Disappointing, but not a big deal; it was still tastey. After my husband was done with his first pizza, our waitress walked by quite literally FOUR times before asking "If he still wants the second Margherita."... Yes? Its a free pizza and he's still hungry. After another 20+ minute wait, they served up the sad looking pizza (photo). We really just wanted to leave at this point, so we asked for a box for the pizza. Our waitress seemed frustrated by this. Needless to say, our experience was less...

We love their brick and mortar restaurant (have given 5 stars before) but this is for their mobile oven service, who just catered our backyard wedding on Saturday. And all I can do is heap praise on Verita's team. I was WILDLY impressed the entire time. Their coordinator, Sara, was incredibly responsive and communicative from the time we requested a quote right up until our wedding day. We had an estimate and site visit done and our date booked within about three days of contacting them. I never had any concerns or worries, Sara made sure everything was set. As far as day of goes, I can do nothing but gush about it. They backed everything up into our narrow driveway, set up in the perfect spot to have everything easily accessible (including putting a table up on our deck for appetizers), and it was a completely seamless and worry free experience. I had to do nothing except pop down the stairs and thank them. Setup, cooking, and pacing was perfection and everything was served beautifully (including an antipasti board that was a work of art). Our guests loved the food, and the team packed up a ton of leftovers. Not only that, the team was so fun, and absolutely lovely to interact with. AND it was a very competitive and affordable cost, especially considering the quality of food and level of service you get. I can't recommend them enough. (Also, side note - they are SO good about food allergies!) 10/10 would hire again, so if you're looking for catering, please reach...
