Editorial Review for Casserta Pizzeria – by Dawn Keable

The Scene
You have no one to blame but yourself for bad service at Caserta's: Someone in your party will have to play waiter for the evening. Fortunately, the only responsibility is to pick up your order from the chrome counter when your number's called. The big concern? How to get the food onto the paper plates without sneaking a bite.

The Food
If you're not a crust lover, you have no business being here. It's the thick crust (crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside) that's lured locals back since 1946. Can't get enough of a good thing? There's even more dough in pies like the "Wimpy Skippy"'s, stuffed with spinach, cheese and pepperoni. Other calzone-like pies include pig in the blanket (Italian sausage with tomato sauce), or pepper pigs (sausage, peppers and tomato sauce).

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Here's where a Swiss Army knife might come in handy: Caserta's has no utensils, plastic or otherwise. If you don't like getting your hands dirty, you may want to bring your own.

Parking

Bring a "look-out" buddy if you opt for takeout, especially on the weekends. Parking is at a premium in this congested neighborhood; the spot you find probably won't be a legal one.

I was the biggest Caserta fan back in the day... I'd travel 30 miles for a Caserta Pizza and in RI that's BIG !!! But just like anything else with new owners ,and time ,comes change. Caserta was the king for many years ... they went up against a pizza at the Bryant College Annual Pizza Challenge this year ( can you tell I'm a Pizza Lover) and the winner this year was a place I've never heard of... Pepino's Pizzeria in Lincoln... OMG !!!! The NEW REIGNING KING of PIZZA... from the northend of Boston !!!! Best kept secret in RI !!!

Pros: Easy to find... been there for years

Cons: Just not like it used to be !!!

Their pizza is disgusting. The sauce is wicked salty, the toppings are few in variety and not very good. Go to Bob & Timmy's - it's much better.

The one thing you'll never find in this casual pizzeria? Uneaten scraps of crust.  See the full editorial review.
