Chowhounder Has 'Best Pizza Ever!' at Co. Company

Posted by Adam Kuban, October 13, 2009 at 5:48 PM

After not eating there for some time, we decided to hit Co. last night, and had our best Co. meal ever. We shared the radicchio salad -- a wonderfully simple salad of radicchio. sliced mushrooms and silky mozzarella in a balsamic vinaigrette -- and their current special pizza, which they call a "charcuterie pizza": sauerkraut, bechamel, three kinds of cheeses, three kinds of German sausage, and dijon mustard. This pizza was extraordinary -- a cross between the best pizza I've ever had and the best hot dog I've ever had. (Ignore that last reference if it's too lowbrow for you, but it certainly had the elements of a great hot dog!) [Chowhound]

I'll have to try it again but both my wife were totally underwhelmed by this place. Both pizzas we had were good but neither of us would go out of our way to eat there. Something about the toppings. I don't know how to put it other than to say that they almost seemed more like nice pieces of bread with some stuff on top than pizzas. I think Keste and Motorino are both much better.

@bobbob: That's the criticism I hear the most. When Jim Lahey is there, the pizzas seem to be good. When he's not (and that's often these days), the pies are off.

This is pizza? Sorry man, this is toppings put on a pizza crust masquerading as pizza.

Adam,
We ate here last week (it's on my blog Stacey Snacks), and we were not impressed.
It was good, don't get me wrong, but nothing worth going back for.
We had the cauliflower pie and the sausage and fennel.
2 beers and shared a salad. $75 bucks. Pricey and I have had better.
Not worth waiting in line for.
But we will try it again, since you say it was great!
Great meeting you last night at Nomad!
Stacey

Good comment, but it would have been better if he had said "lowbrau" instead of "lowbrow".

@Stacey Snacks. How 'bout a link? I was not able to spot it last time I looked. Did anyone see Sean Taylor's review on www.31daysofpizza.com ?

Ciao,
