The 4-1-1 on Pizza 786
So during my first week back at school, my friends decided to call up their favorite place for some good eats – Pizza 786. I was at first hesitant but they talked me into it after mentioning that it offered free delivery for an order of over ten dollars. I decided to get an 8-inch personal pizza with pepperoni (I had the option of getting double cheese but passed. I know it’s plain but I didn’t have a menu in front of me) which was $6.49, while my friends got 10 piece buffalo wings for $9.99 with fries for $7.99.
Opening the box I noticed how there was a good amount of pepperoni, or as my friend Avery Brow said, it showed an “artful use” of pepperoni. I grabbed my fork and knife—yes, I use a knife and fork on pizza, I’m French, get used to it—and took my first bite. I found the pizza to be relatively good, yet I thought that there was a little bit too much marinara sauce. I found the whole pizza to be more of a pan or deep dish kind of pizza. Overall, the pizza was thick, which I like.
After I was done with my pizza I decided to try my friend’s buffalo wings. They had gotten 5 boneless and 5 with the bone. I took my first bite and was unpleasantly surprised by how dry it was. Also, due to fact that it was dry; the taste wasn’t as full compared to other wings I’ve had in the past.
All in all, I’d give them a 3 out of 5 because they had a pretty good personal pizza but their wings weren’t as kickin’ as they should have been. However, free delivery with an order of ten dollars or more is a pretty sweet deal.
Until next time, I’ll see you at the lunch table,

For what it’s worth, every item on the Pizza 786 menu is halal, so they get a lot of business that way alone with such a large muslim community literally next door.
Try the gyro or the eggplant sub, they’re great.
