Pizza Rustica |
For
a quick lunch or a late night snack under $5, you can’t beat Pizza Rustica.
Consisting of twin deck ovens and a soda machine, this is one of those minimal concepts
that makes entrepreneurial millions. The secret, of course, is in the crust. Rich in extra
virgin olive oil, this crispy yet yeasty base melts in your mouth.
Toppings range from
four
cheese (which wreaks of heavenly gorgonzola and parmesan) to a simple favorite of
fresh buffala mozzarella with Roma tomatoes and chiffonade of fresh leaf basil. Pizza
Bianca (white pizza) omits the tomato sauce for more olive oil. "Slices" are cut
into squares (as it’s really done in roadside Pizzerias in Italy). Open late-night,
the lines never cease.

Review: I had a craving for some really good
pizza and that's exactly what I got at Pizza Rustica. We had excellent
pizza, good music playing and a great view from the patio for "people
watching". What else could you ask for? |

Review: Must
eat pizza in South Beach. They have an awesome selection of pizza that's
definitely hard to choose from, I wish I could have tried them all! For
under 5 dollars a slice you get awesome quality, great taste and value.
One slice will fill up the majority of people who eat there. All around
steal and no brainer! |

Review: I
am a native New Yorker. We believe we have the best pizza in the world.
This view has just changed. I was transported to another place. Some
small village in Italy is where I found myself while eating Pizza
Rustica. Amazing culinary delight. I now reside in South Florida and
wonder if this pizza had anything to do with it. |

Review: My
boyfriend and I went to Miami in September/2004 to go on a cruise and
while we were in South Beach we wanted to eat something good that was
reasonably priced. We found Pizza Rustica and it was wonderful. I am
coming back to Miami in April/2006 and I can't wait to eat there again. |

Review: We
were out partying in South Beach and someone recommended Pizza Rustica
at like 4 am. When we got there the line was out the door! After tasting
the pizza we knew why. Seriously some of the best pizza I have ever had.
And to sweeten the story they are open until like 6 am! They have about
15 different varieties. If you are out drinking and partying everyone
knows there's nothing better than a slice of hot pizza. |
