Parking was a bit sketchy since it is shared with the bowling alley. The inside of the restaurant looked like it hadn't been updated since the 70s - which was part of its charm The box was heavy with pizza goodness, complete with a greasy hand print on the cardboard.
Once we opened it up, the pizza did not disappoint. Thick crust with a yellow, egg-bread like flavour (though there was a bit too much around the edges) and a nice layer of golden cheese. There was a good amount of sauce, though the flavouring was somewhat bland. Big pieces of real bacon and mushrooms topped things off. A big dough ball held things in place (just like my beloved Fida's!).
Cost: $24 for large, 2 toppings (pick-up)
Crust - 7/10
Cheese - 8/10
Sauce - 6/10
Toppings - 8/10
Overall Impression - 8/10
A front-runner so far, and worth a repeat visit.
This brings back memories! Growing up in Ottawa, we used to get Louis pizza. Glad to hear that it sounds like it hasn't changed. It's funny, it already seemed dated back in the early 80's. They didn't deliver, so we'd go pick it up, occasionally eating there in what felt like a small diner. Good pizza, good memories.
