Pizzicletta Review (without pictures)

Date	9/19/24
Pizzeria	Pizzicletta
City/Neighborhood	Flagstaff, AZ / Downtown Flagstaff
Website	https://www.pizzicletta.com/
About Us	None, but the hostess said that the owner got the inspiration got this while riding on SS-145 (a road on the Sorrentine Peninsula in Campania)!   How can you possibly beat that combination...Sorrento, Campania, Neapolitan Pizza
Style	Neapolitan - a perfect representation of a Neapolitan!
Ambiance	Small and quaint, but business was hopping on a weeknight!

Shape	Round
Dough/Crust	Tickness- Neapolitan Thin Cook - Outstanding! Soft, Spongy/airy, Bubbly, Chewy Flavor - SOURDOUGH!  Perfect! A much different taste than a yeast dough. Slight Char.  The char had a slightly different, but fun, flavor.  After speaking with the pizzaiolo, they use Arizona olive wood in the oven
Cornicione	Spongy/airy, Bubbly, Chewy, Sourdough
Toppings	Cheese, in house moozedell made daily, Fresh basil leaves, olive oil drizzle Fresh - Yes
Sauce	Tangy, Thin.  Per the pizzaiolo, it's canned Bianco di Napoli with salt only! PURE!
Cheese	Cheese Type- Moozedell, Parmagia Cheese Distribution - Splotchy Stinky (in a good, made fresh, way - due to the fresh whey?), Salty
Cheese to Sauce Ratio	Sauce - A little to Medium Cheese - Medium Balance - PERFETTO

Value	Medium at a relatively high price of $17 for a 12".  If the pizza wasn't sooooo great, I'd complain!
Overall Rating	Great!  Who knew that you can take a Classic Neapolitan and slightly modernize it and make it turn out so fabulously?!?!?  Pizzicletta knows what they're doing
Would I Go Back?	Yes!  Had never been to Flagstaff before, but it's an outstanding outdoors town with massive hiking and biking trails within the city limits.  Very cool place - WONDERFUL PIZZA (more reviews to come from Flagstaff)
