Paesano's Pizza

Tim and I always try to go to new restaurants whenever we can. We would seriously travel to a different state to eat food if we hear it's that good. Paesano's Pizza is only in Traverse City, about an hour away from where we live, but we had read some reviews that it is a good place to try out.

This is definitely an Italian restaurant haha! What I love about it though is that it really feels like a hometown place. All those pictures on the walls are of people that have eaten there.

Normally when we try a new pizza place, we go for just a pepperoni pizza to see how good they really are. I mean, if their pepperoni pizza is good, then everything else will be. Well holy moly. This pizza was amazing. Super light and fluffy dough, and the breadsticks are the same. Super buttery and yummy. And that marinara, oh yum. It's definitely homemade, the perfect amount of tomatoey, oregano, garlic..etc., flavors. So good.

One thing I would have changed about this restaurant was the lighting. They had this sign right above where people eat that was red, making EVERYTHING red. Not the best lighting for anyone, and it makes for slightly horrible pictures haha.

If that's all that needs to be changed though, then that's fine with me! We'll definitely be back here as the pizza was great. Tim even said while it doesn't beat Big Al's, it's close. And he's never said that.
