The Pizza

New location in Rostraver! Great wings! Take out wings are usually soggy or
Over cooked… not these! Cajun and buffalo are Amazing!

I wasn’t crazy about the Untouchable since I don’t like Primanti’s sandwiches, but the pizza was more than decent. Unfortunately, they don’t deliver to us, so we had to go there to get it.

Since they don’t deliver as far as Beechview and offer no dine-​in option, Kay and I picked up a small pizza and two «Untouchable» sandwiches this evening for dinner and are not disgruntled over doing so.
The Pizza Company is a small-​scale local chain that exists primarily in the South Hills of the city. This particular location has been here for so long I forget when it opened. Look for a humble structure of stone with the franchise’s trademark: a diminutive green neon sign.
Their pizza, which we had with feta and black olives, possessed a crust that somewhat parallels toasted Italian bread and features convex edges. The mozzarella had a bit of zing to it (a la string cheese) as did the red sauce. I wouldn’t call it «ho-​hum» at all. Pizza Co. makes a perfectly competent and edible pie.
The «Untouchable» sandwich is one of multiple Primanti Brothers forgeries found throughout Western Pennsylvania, and as far as I can taste, it’s a very good one. Instead of slices of Italian bread, the meats (steak, ham, salami, capicola, bacon, meatballs, and turkey are your choices, and I’m not kidding about the last three), provolone cheese, vinaigrette slaw, and french fries are placed inside of a velutinous yet stout hoagie roll. My sandwich included the steak, and I found it to be as succulent and savory as gyro meat. The fries were done steak-​style and were as starchy as one would expect. The slaw could have kicked a little more ass, however, but no matter, this was what Ben Reilly was to Peter Parker; a worthy clone.
The Pizza Company is welcome company, anytime.

Remember that saying, that sex is like pizza — even when it’s so-​so, it’s good? That pretty much sums it up. There’s nothing appallingly wrong with the Pizza Co. pizza. It’s just kind of ho-​hum.
With that said, I enjoyed the chili poppers a lot. (Which were inexplicably wrapped with the ranch sauce for delivery. Mmmmm… hot, sweaty ranch dressing.)
The delivery guy was really friendly. Delivery time was unimpressive. A full 45 minutes mid-​afternoon, and I live two blocks away? That’s what I get for being lazy, probably. Karmic pizza.
Prices are pretty good though, so that’s a bonus. They may end up being my ‘Dangit, I’ve only got fifteen bucks!’ joint. Otherwise, probably not.

It’s pizza, and my family prefers Pizza Company over the big chains, and other local places. We used to order from the Potomac location, since they delivered to our address, but since they’ve closed, the Library Rd. store is our go to shop.
The wings, and breadsticks have been given a thumbs up by the kids. Pizza has been consistent, whether we’re ordering a cheese pizza, or something with extra toppings like pepperoni, or Italian sausage. Service is friendly, food is good, the only drawback is having to drive Rt. 88.
