This article serves as a continuation of my pizza review column! So dive in, and discover what Stash's Pizza has in store for you.
If you live on the other side of the highway, just past the Staples in Norwood then you have had Stash's.
It’s one of those Norwood staples that everyone remembers and it receives high praise from many Norwood residents.
This left Stash’s being an obvious continuation and the next to undergo the test of my taste buds.
The large cheese pizza from Stash’s costs a reasonable $16.99.
I think the most inherently intriguing aspect of this pizza place is the promotion of their jumbo pizza which comes in at $25.50 and the Sicilian pizza which comes in at $22.50.
They also have both cauliflower and gluten-free pizzas which make it an incredibly versatile spot.
The restaurant sports a good variety of beverages including sodas, and lemonade and this was a pleasant find.
When I received my pizza it was beautiful. I was worried that it was burnt at first but this was not the case; although it did appear, simply put, cheesy and delicious.
I dipped the pizza into my mouth and as my mouth closed shutting the pizza away, my tongue was met with the incredibly firm crust that it sported.
The cheese was middle of the road and did not blow me away, nor did it revolt me.
I think the most disappointing thing was the lackluster amount of sauce on the pizza.
The bites that included more generous amounts of sauce I found to be significantly more enjoyable.
I feel that the sauce can really make or break a pizza and that was the case here.
Through every bite, the crust kept coming through amazingly. It really was just the best part of it.
I think in total between the glory of the crust and the scarcity of the sauce I would leave Stash’s Pizza with a reasonable 7.5/10. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for something different. The wide variety of their menu is I think a big bonus.
