If any calzone I’ve eaten so far has taught me anything, it
was this one. This one, had to have been the most average calzone I’ve eaten so
far. Average tasting dough, average price ($9.95), average taste. There were
many pros and cons to this one, for example: The dough was cooked well on the
top, but it was very crispy on the bottom making it hard to completely cut
through. The menu advertised the Calzone I ordered, which was the “Deli”
Calzone, with ricotta cheese – but there was none to be found in it. The cheese
was not thoroughly melted as I have described in other postings, but not bad. I
suppose, in a headline, what this dish should be called is “Fantastic Pepperoni
and Ham inside of some average tasting bread and cheese”. Being a deli, I
shouldn’t have expected any less of the meats, they were great. High quality
pepperoni oozing with that spicy oil they have. The ham was salty, but not too
salty. The meal was served with the biggest bowl of marinara sauce I’ve had so
far, except it tasted canned. Like they poured half of a can of marinara sauce
in a bowl and gave it to me. The highs of this meal: the meat, the amount of
marinara, the size of the calzone (medium-large) were matched by the lows of
the meal: no ricotta as advertised, quality of the sauce, taste of every other
part of it. They did serve the meal with a steak knife and a metal fork which
is always helpful. I give this Calzone a
very, very middle of the road C.
