I consider myself a pizza tasting connoisseur, as I've tried every pizza establishment in town and surrounding area.
I got tired of hearing my brother Glenn rant and rave about how great the pizza is at Pizza, Etc. So this weekend I decided to give it a try while I watch some exciting playoff football on Saturday.
I had tried a couple of times, ordering on a snowy day and spoke with Sergio, who was very kind and helpful, unfortunately on that particular afternoon, he didn't have a delivery person so I told him him I'd try another day...
Today, I placed my first order with Sergio, as we had originally hit it off. Being from Chihuahua, Mexico, I told him that I had strong ties there, playing decades of professional beisbol, as I received my very first opportunity at both semi- professional and AAA Professional beisbol in Mexico.
On my first order, I was greeted by his kind employee, who kindly answered the phone, muy amable.... She was very kind, took my directions to my residence and helped mecwith my order. I ordered a medium pizza and a desert (cheese cake) for delivery. She kindly said it would take about a half hour.
Since being strikes by a massive stroke earlier in the year, I put my phone alarm for thirty minutes, so I hopped around in my hemi walker to get ready for the delivery; opening my front door and screen door, while pouring me a drink, as I awaited for "the best pizza in town," per my brother Glenn's palette...
The young lady that took my order over the phone and her timing was impeccable as she beat my half hour alarm. I greeted her from the door and politely asked her to come in and place the order on my armoire in front of my television, as she completely obliged. He customer service was on par to Sergio's, as they make a perfect partnership and exemplary customer service-oriented professional business that Pizza, Etc. stands for...
The pizza was not on extraordinary tasting, it was hot upon delivery. The pepperoni and melted cheese were fresh, but the most impressive thing was the crust. It crunched with each bite!!!
After a few pieces, I craved the flavor of chili, so I opened the bag with my desert and behold, there were packets of crushed red peppers that made the pizza devine!
Now that I have established a great rapport with both Sergio and his deliveryperson, I can't wait to re-order pizza from my now new favorite pizza establishment in Santa Fe, Pizza, Etc. I give them an outstanding review, albeit a well deserved five-star rating to those pizza lover's looking for Santa Fe's BEST TASTING PIZZA!!!âââââ

   Read morePizza Etc has long resided near the east wing entrance of the DeVargas Center as a beloved grab and go pizza joint. I recently stopped by this place last week after not having been for a couple of years. Things had certainly changed quite a bit, and apparently most very recently (as I would be informed by one of the employees). Gone was the New York street style dining area which stood as the restaurant's most identifiable trademark for many years. In its place: three black modern high tables that sit against a vivid white backdrop in the wide-open space. Change is necessary for any business, and although I always liked the NYC charm of the previous design, I welcome the new modern look. I ordered myself a small cheese pizza, side salad w/caesar, and a small drink when the time came. The side salad turned out to be okay, but it wasn't great by any marker; the caesar dressing did little to improve the bland taste and I only ended up nibbling on a few pieces of lettuce before throwing in the towel. The pizza, on the other hand, was pretty good: custom made just for me and spot-on in both texture and taste. Pizza Etc is a good place to grab a quick bite if ever strolling through the DeVargas Center or if just looking for an alternative place to get carry-out. Employees are friendly, tables are clean, and most of all this place is...
   Read moreFrom the outside, you might not expect much, but this little spot turned out to be one of the best pizza experiences Iâve had in years. ⢠Margarita Pizza: Hands down, the best Iâve ever had. The crust was crisp yet chewy, clearly made fresh that day. The toppings were beyond what youâd expectâjuicy, ripe tomatoes, sweet roasted peppers, fresh mozzarella, and a drizzle of pesto, all topped with vibrant fresh basil. Every bite was an explosion of flavor. ⢠Calzone: John ordered the calzone, and it was absolutely stuffedâno skimping here. The ricotta cheese was creamy and plentiful, balanced with gooey mozzarella and savory pepperoni. The crust baked to golden perfection and held everything together without being greasy or soggy. ⢠Quality & Freshness: You can tell the dough is made fresh daily, and the ingredients are top-notch. They donât cut corners, and it shows in both taste and presentation.
⨠Overall: This isnât just another pizza stopâitâs a destination. If youâre anywhere near Pojoaque and craving real, fresh, flavorful pizza, this is absolutely worth pulling over for. You...
