Finally tried Rubirosa’s tie-dye pie: 7/10
| I've been dreaming of this pie for years, and today I finally dragged my wife over to try it during a visit to NYC. It was easy to order online and then pick it up about 20 minutes later, which isn't an option at many of the most popular NYC spots. Explaining my score: Ultimately, this just wasn't giving NYC pizza. The crust is so thin and well-done that the entire pizza was cracker-like, and I found myself wanting at least a little bit of chew. Surprisingly, I found the marinara sauce to be the most enjoyable of the three sauces. The pesto was a bit too pine nutty for me, and the vodka sauce was the least flavorful of the trio. Again, the extreme crunch of this pizza really held it back from being a masterpiece in my book. Verdict: An enjoyable, fun pizza that I likely would not get again. I’m glad I tried it though!
