Some Guys Pizza Pasta Grill, a locally owned pizza place with several locations around town, was calling me last night. Our local Some Guys manages to balance hip and family friendly with its black interior and neon signs in which families may be found coloring and chowing down on gourmet-style pizza. Its front wall is crowded with all the awards it has won in the past. Some Guys Pizza has been in town for about 20 years. On Sunday night they feature live entertainment. We ordered our favorite Primavera pizza, another with sausage and mushrooms, and a small salad with the house buttermilk dressing. Appetizers included garlic cheese bread and spinach artichoke dip. Some Guys features a good selection of pizzas and pasta as well as more sophisticated desserts including gelato and cheesecake. There is a decent selection of wines and beer although my brother-in-law lamented over the lack of any wheat beer. The pizza has the right chew with good quality toppings that are balanced. They use a blend of mozzarella and fontina cheeses. The tomato sauce is not too sweet or acidic, made from Roma tomatoes. Our Primavera pizza was bursting with perfectly "roasted" broccoli, yellow squash, and carrots. All the appetizers attested to their goodness by disappearing quickly. Some Guys is my local go-to pizza joint. Nearby Pizzology may be a food critics choice but somehow Some Guys' pizza wins me over every time. Its pizza is pricey, compared to other national chains, but you can tell the difference!
