Stop 032: Angelo's Taverna (Capital Hill)




Angelo’s Taverna

Location:  620 E. 6th Ave. Denver, CO

Angelo’s wears 2 hats, pizza and oysters.  While I came here for the pizza,  I was tempted by the fruit of a mollusk.  Weird side note;   as I typed the previous line, the song “Tempted” by  Squeeze queued up in my head and I must say that tempted by the fruit of a mollusk,  would be an awful Weird Al song.  Anyways… even if my pizza tasted like absolute dung,  I would still say the service was awesome, and I would come back.  In a 5 minute span,  4 different employees asked me if I needed something, and it was not annoying, I actually felt welcome.  To top it off, the owner brought out my pizza and personally thanked me for my order.   The pizza was plenty decent.    The sauce was flavorful and the cheese was like a rugby player, thick, white, and salty.   Now let’s break down the toppings…

Meatball:  not the best I have ever had, but certainly above average        Grade:   B+
Green peppers:  fresh, must have been cut within 15 minutes of being dispersed       Grade:  A
Pepperoni:  legit       Grade:  B
Mushrooms:  not from a can, and that is all I can ask for       Grade:  B

I will say, the crust is suspect to being frozen.  There was no evidence presented during the consumption of my 12” pie that the crust was made in house or day of purchase.  It simply had no game, but everything else was good enough to propel it to a pizza train 4   (PT4)
