Pizza In Rocklin: il pizzaiolo

It’s That Fancy Pizza

 

pizzaiolo1.pngMy son had camp at Lazer Craze camp today so I thought, on the recommendation of my wife and son, that I’d try the pizza at il pizzaiolo in the Blue Oaks Century Theater parking lot.  Everyone seemed to enjoy it so I thought maybe I would too.

Well…I did!  It was really good pizza.  It’s the gourmet pizza that you only used to find in San Francisco and L.A.  I had the Nebrodi – prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, shaved parmesan and fresh arugula.  See?  Gourmet pizza.  (photos in the gallery below)

These are not ingredients I would typically order on a pizza but it was very good.  The crust was  a little thicker than I thought it would be but it didn’t matter.  It was really tasty.

I tend to go for Cool River/Old Town Pizza type of menu’s with an occasional Celestino’s thrown in for a change but this was a very distinct and value packed change.

My pizza and a soda was just shy of $12.  I didn’t finish all of the pizza, saved it for later so I would say it was a very good value.

To review, great pizza, excellent value = I’ll be going back.

Thanks for visiting!
