Review: Noble Roman's Deli-Fresh Pizza

I had to run to one of our local grocery stores yesterday morning to pick up a few things we needed for the house and, on my way past their deli section, I noticed a display for this brand of pizza.  Even though I wasn't planning on having pizza for dinner (we just had it a couple nights ago), I was intrigued and decided to give it a try.

I've had other fresh-made deli pizza before and, for the most part, prefer it. However, I did find I had some doubts about this particular product. As it turns out, however, it was actually pretty good.

When trying a new pizza brand, my opinion of it is pretty much based on three things, the quality of the crust, the number of toppings and the flavor of the sauce. This brand passed all three of those categories.

First, the crust was exactly how my wife and I like it. It wasn't paper-thin (like many other pizzas we've purchased) but, while it was thicker, it was still thin enough to get crunchy in the oven. It also had a good flavor (something, again, isn't always the case). 

As for toppings, I had no complaints. I purchased the sausage and pepperoni variety and it had a good quantity and mix of both, as well as plenty of cheese, making it much more filling than expected. Considering this pizza was roughly the same price as I would expect to pay for a decent brand of frozen pizza, I was definitely impressed, especially since frozen brands tend to skimp on toppings.

I also thought the sauce on this pizza had a good taste. This brand didn't overkill on the sauce (a big pet peeve of mine). But, there was enough to give the pizza the necessary taste and it had a good blend of seasonings. In other words, I really had no complaints about this product.

I had some doubts when I purchased this pizza. But, after having it, I thought it was a good purchase and is something I would buy again.

My Grade: A
