Pizza Italia - Pittsburgh, PA (Bloomfield)

A friend recommended that I try Pizza Italia on Liberty Ave. in Bloomfield.  It is a run down shop that does not offer delivery or have specials, so you know it isn't bad if they are still in business.

The few times I have had the pizza I could taste the freshness of the dough.  The crust tastes like fresh baked bread.  The sauce was decent but they went a bit heavy with it.  It may be my personal preference but I feel a lot of places go heavy on sauce.  The cheese is good and there was plenty of it.  The only problem is they did not put cheese all the way up to the crust and it left a good bit of just sauce and crust.  Overall, I enjoyed the pizza, and would order it again and even recommend it.  Next time I would ask for light sauce.

          Crust: 7.5/10
          Sauce: 6.5/10
          Topping: 7/10
          Overall: 7/10
