Howdy Paisano! That is
the catch phrase of Edgewater Inn, a cozy neighborhood bar and pizza shop that
was established in 1953. The Edgewater
Inn has a great atmosphere which will bring me back regardless of what comes
out of the oven. The pizza is made from
scratch, I just don’t think they use the best scratch in town. If you look at the picture above you can see
that this is not the most attractive pie, but I’m not a pizza watcher, I’m a pizza eater. Yet, as I approached the pizza I could not help but think it looks like the someone squirted
a bunch of ketchup all over my pizza! Right
out of the gate my companion took an anti-mushroom stance, so after a brief
discussion we opted for pepperoni, black olives, and green peppers to top our
pie. What can you say about black
olives, they were fine because I like black olives. I have never heard someone recommend a place
and say you really got to try their black olives… The pepperoni was nothing
special, but I must say that I was very fond of their green peppers. I
believe they were grilled prior to the baking of the pizza, and sometimes you
just gotta spend a little more time on a topping. The sauce on top of the pizza was bogus. It had the consistency of warm ketchup and
the taste of a slightly doctored Spaghetti
-O’s sauce. The crust was on the thicker
side of things, which I like, but it could benefit from a little more
zest. During our meal, my companion
mumbled “its better than frozen pizza” as he reached for his 2nd
slice… and that is where I will leave it
