This is a solid pizza joint.... In the immediate area it's probably the best there is. Stopped by here based on the reviews w/my son who is a pizza expert. We ordered our usual plain pie as we feel this is the best way to judge a place...a cheese pie is easy to make but difficult to truly get right. Now Carmel Brick lends itself to a traditional city style pie with nice large slices, uniform blanket of shredded cheese a healthy slathering of sauce and a defined crust. The crust was my favorite part of this pie which as a whole we both agreed was decent. The sauce was overly salty which was a little disappointing ad it had that canned tomato over tone on the tail end. The flavor was good and pronounced and you could taste it through the cheese so thats a plus. The cheese is of a fair quality having a bit of grease to it and a slight whole milk richness. Over all the slices held up well and taste was overall good. But thats it.
