My first time to Stone Canyon pizza. The atmosphere was lively at the downtown location during the prime dinner time. We ended up trying the Pollo Pesto and Grand Canyon pizza.
I had to try the Grand Canyon pizza given the namesake. It has Mozzarella and cheddar cheese, smothered in American sausage, ground beef, pepperoni, fresh mushrooms, black olives, green peppers and red onions. The toppings and sauces were rather tasty. I would order this one again.
I was really looking forward the Pollo Pesto (pesto sauce topped with mozzarella cheese, roasted chicken breast, spinach, sweet roasted red peppers and toasted pine nuts) Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed. All the components sounded and looked great, but the pizza was simply too dry. Not enough pesto sauce. I guess we should have listened to our waitress who did tells us it wasn’t one of her favorites but we ordered the smallest size anyway.
Overall the pizzas weren’t as great as they looked. The crust was rather bland, but the all the ingredients seemed to be high quality and good. It also nice that they weren’t overly greasy. But the sauce and crust held them back from being great.
