Still on the quest for a good stuffed-crust frozen pizza, I decided to try this one from Sam's Choice. It's pretty good! Overall it has pretty good quality ingredients, while the crust leaves a bit to be desired. It's definitely better than the DiGiorno stuffed crust options, and is actually one of the best pizzas I've had in a while. I'd certainly recommend it.
I went into this one with fairly low expectations. Even up to the point where I was cutting the pizza, I didn't think it was going to be very good. Surprisingly though, it's not bad!
For $3.50 or so, this pizza is an excellent value. The amount of pepperoni on the pizza is more than that of even a typical Dominos or Pizza Hut double pepperoni pizza, and for a fraction of the price. The toppings and crust are definitely a bit cheap, but for what you're paying, this is a really good pizza. Personally, I'll probably stick with Red Baron as my go-to classic pepperoni, but if you want something cheaper and still pretty good, this is an excellent option.
Update:
After a couple slices, I could not eat any more of this. It was far too greasy and cheap tasting, and not in a good way like some pizzas. Just buy a 4-pack of Totino's pizzas instead and you'll be far better off.
I wasn't sure what I'd think about this one. It has spinach and a selection of cheeses on top of a creamy garlic sauce, on a thin crust. The cheese sounds great, the garlic sounds okay, and the spinach… well I don't particularly care for that. Oddly, it tastes fairly flavorless overall. Compared to a typical pizza covered in toppings, this one just kind of tastes unfinished, like it needed something more. It's not necessarily bad, but it definitely isn't the kind of pizza I care for. I'll probably go eat something else instead.
On the Santa Monica Pier in California, there's a little pizza restaurant that's actually really good! For around $9, you can get an excellent personal pizza, with very high quality toppings and a pretty decent crust.
My sister tried the LA Dog from the restaurant next door and it looked amazing, so if you're at the pier, you should maybe give both a try.
The garlic knots at Pizza Pie Cafe are hit and miss. This time though, they were amazing! The perfect flavor and consistency, and just awesome overall.
Red Baron pretty much always makes a good pizza. This one is no exception.
The thin crust has a very similar flavor and feel to the Red Baron Classic Crust pizza, and the toppings match it just about perfectly. If you're in the mood for a thin crust pizza and like the Red Baron flavor, this is a great option.
Compared with something like the California Pizza Kitchen Signature Pepperoni pizza, Red Baron's feels a bit plain, but since I've had a hard time finding CPK's Pepperoni lately, this is good enough.
I decided to try something a bit different today. Pizzeria Limone has a variety of fairly unique pizzas, and I felt like I had to try one. I didn't like this one. The oils added were way overdone, and the tomato made up too much of the pizza. It wasn't terrible, but I certainly would have preferred something else.
I also tried a couple slices of their Pera pizza, which has thinly sliced pears on it. That one was pretty good, but still not quite what I'm into.
I think this was my first time trying th Domino's pan crust. It's not bad, but I think I prefer their hand-tossed crust, since this isn't quite as good a Pizza Hut's pan crust. The pepperoni and Italian sausage combination is always a good choice, but overall this pizza is just a bit lacking. Still a good Friday evening treat though!
Pizza Pie Cafe is pretty great. Their pizza of the month for August is a Smores dessert pizza, and it's really good. There're enough marshmallows on it to make it hard to finish a big piece, and one is certainly enough, but it's worth trying.
