Toscani Pizzeria

Went here with the bf and my mom about a month ago.  Food is really pretty good, however, the service was lackluster. There was one waitress for the whole floor. One cook in the kitchen and one girl behind the register. The waitress was struggling to keep up as she had 4-5 tables and was acting as hostess as well. I certainly thought the cashier could have assisted the poor waitress. We waited for our food for 45 minutes and then when we were ready for the check it took another 15 to track it down. The main bright spot was that the food was delicious.

Robert Duvaul is at it again.
When I first read the newspaper's food critics review of this place. My first thought was "how couldn't he know it was sold"?
It didn't sound like anything like the owners would do, even only having been there a few times. It did seem so "out of character"? A few days later I dropped in to see for myself what he was talking about. He hired new employees? They are not the owners, the people that I was accustomed to see working. I also found out the owners did have a slightly better "love of the art". I had been lucky enough, to have them make my pizzas.  

The employees told me that the owners did not stay all day long, everyday. How lucky the newspaper critic was, as I to be able to obtain one of these masterpieces(non-fancy word).

I do understand that any restaurant or even fast food place. Can easily go up or down hill in four months. And do respect any newspapers food critic his right to criticize any business. One of his best, in my option was the time he went to The Three Rivers Festival. Junk food alley, he just walked right in and "stuck his noise right into it". Great, ballse bold opinions.

But shacking up the entire West Wayne Street area? With those opinions?
In this case, I think he might need to do a re-review.

And now for the fancy writing:
. Each slice the OWNER MADE was thin, foldable, and accented by the traditional Neapolitan puffed crust. And, as for the few drops of honey - I said Goddamn! This pizza's hot enough to clear an asthmatic's sinuses on the first pollen-polluted day of spring! Honestly, the combination of heat and sweetness really took it into another stratosphere. It's like He spent sixteen years perfecting textbook pizza in his spare time, then quit his desk job just to toss those textbooks out the window, opened up a trendy, top-of-the-line establishment on the fringes of Calhoun Street, and turned the
Fort Wayne pizza scene on its head. Oh, wait - because that's exactly what happened.

Dude, seriously?  Vegetarian pizza?         Your mom liked it.  A lot.**

On a road trip through Fort Wayne we were in the mood for pizza, we ended up going with Toscani Pizzeria due to the reviews.

It is a small place with only a few employees. The owner? seemed a little brash at first, but he was being over worked at the time and seemed to lightened up as we were there.

We ordered cheese garlic bread and pepperoni and black olive pizza, both came out fast. It was so tasty! The ingredients, sauce, and crust were almost flawless. I have to admit I was pretty surprised due to the area we were in, these guys make great pizza and know what they are doing, the price is right also.

I highly recommend checking them out if you're passing through and have a craving for pizza. Next time we are in the area we will be going back!
