Have you heard? My favorite rooftop hangout, Eighteen 85 @eighteen85rooftop perched on top of the Hotel Indigo, is now serving fresh-made pizza! I couldn’t resist, so I popped over to give their Margherita pizza a spin.
First Impressions
The moment my waitress brought the pizza out to me, I knew I would enjoy it. It smelled incredible. There’s nothing like a fresh-made pizza placed right in front of you. The pizza is just the right size – enough for a solo pizza party or to split with someone. But honestly? I gobbled it all up myself, no regrets!
The Crust and Texture
What caught my attention right away was the crust. It’s on the thinner side, just enough to give you that nice crunch when you bite into it. Paired with the soft and warm melted mozzarella, it’s a pleasant contrast in texture. The thin crust provides a perfect base, not too heavy, allowing the toppings to shine.
Flavor Profile
Then there are the flavors. The house red sauce is hearty and flavorful, creating a solid base for the creamy mozzarella. The herb pesto, an aromatic blend of fresh herbs, garlic, and nutty undertones, is applied in just the right amount, bringing an earthy richness to the mix. Its fresh and robust flavor contrasts wonderfully with the mild mozzarella and tomato sauce, adding a dimension that leaves your taste buds eager for the next bite.
Fresh Ingredients
To finish it off, the pizza is decorated with fresh basil leaves. They add a hint of vibrancy and freshness to each bite but don’t steal the show, resulting in a well-balanced blend of flavors. The basil’s subtle presence enhances the overall taste without overpowering the other ingredients.
Overall Experience
Overall, I think it’s a really good pizza. And let me be clear, because anytime I post about pizza, someone will ask me, “Is it better than so-and-so or this place?” Truth is, when I try places, I’m not really thinking about competition or who has the better slice. All I care about is if I enjoy what I’m eating. And yes, I did!
This was a well-balanced pizza with solid flavors that doesn’t try to go overboard. It’s simple, and it works! The combination of a thin, crispy crust, flavorful sauce, and fresh ingredients makes this pizza a standout.
