Giardino Italiano - Hopewell Junction

Where do I start... what if Giardinos might be the best pizza outside Brooklyn and there Bronx. All my friends know how critical I am pizza. Cheese, sauce, crust and, of course, the ratio of cheese to sauce and crust all matter. The cheese cannot be cheap, too salty, vigilant or oily. It must be quality cheese. The sauce cannot be too salty, sour, bitter or sweet. It must be perfect and made with love. The crust cannot be too thick, thin, under or over boiled. Neapolitan slices must be folded and not flop or tears... Good pizza is a science, great pizza is an art. Nino (the owner) and his chefs are artists. The pizza was great! Quality cheese, perfectly made and seasoned sauce and oh the crust... Mmmmmm... The food was great, like the service. Our waitress (Taylor Ann) was super attentive, personal and simply stunning. The owner ensures that everyone and everything is on the point without making it known, he misses nothing. All signs of a great place to visit! When you stop, ask for Nino and tell him Gregg and Karen (the peacemakers (lol) with the yellow SRT-8 Challenger and the Italian speaking dog) sent you. Nino not only runs a great restaurant, he's also a carman. Everything around, it won't be better than that! Thank you to all at Giardono. See you soon!
