Peppe's Pizza & Panini
Samersova - I live in Windsor Terrace (2 blocks from the Theater) and take it from me, NO restaurant from anywhere near Union St. delivers to the South Slope or the WT. Why would a 17th St. pizzeria perform differently in reverse?

You mention that one of the differnces is that Peppe's uses Grande cheese. Actually Dom at DiFara does use Grande whole milk low moisture aged mozzarella.

well,the owner of pepe's just gave me a call and apologized for last night's mess-he explained to me about his regular chef having to leave due to a family emergency,and offered to send over a free pizza to make up for the first. i'm glad he did,since this pizza was very tasty (and perfectly cooked) -a tiny little bit salty it seemed to me,but certainly not enough to take away from the overall quality. even the crust was good,and i generally don't even attempt to eat that part of the pie. obviously the management at pepe's does care about it's customers,as i've never had another establishment call me to apologize about poor quality food,much less send free food in an attempt to win me back as a customer. well,it worked. this kind of service is all too rare,and very much appreciated.
so i'll be giving pepe's another chance it seems,and i hope they keep up the good work,since i'd love to recommend them to my friends in the neighborhood.

well,ordered for the first time from this pizza shop,and i can honestly say that it's an experience i won't be repeating. pizza arrived very soggy,undercooked,the cheese floating on a layer of water that had nearly soaked through the bottom of the box. (i'm only 4 blocks away,btw) the dough in the middle of the pie was either very undercooked or had become so wet as to amount to the same thing. any attempt to eat it would have had to have been made with a spoon.
i know some people have raved about this place-i'm certainly not the most picky eater myself,esp when it comes to pizza,good enough is fine by me. but any place that would send out such an inedible mess and call it a pizza doesn't get a second chance in my book.

I was in the mood for ordering pizza in tonight -- I like Anthony's, but wood-fired delivery leaves something to be desired. Thus, I decided to browse Slice, and thank-goodness! When I first moved to the 'hood Peppe's was not Peppe's and it had sub-par slices so I had avoided this place. The review convinced me to give it a try, and I'm glad.
The three cheese pizza arrived quickly and was piping hot. The crust was a perfect blend of crisp and chewy and the sauce and cheeses became a lovely tangy tomato-y goodness. The caprese salad is a nice mix of fresh mozzarella, cherry tomotoes, roasted red pepper and basil on a bed of mixed greens. Too top it all off, the man on the phone was delightful. Thank you Peppe's I will be ordering again!

Samersova's been spamming every message board she can find about not getting her delivery, even though as stated by joelpy, she's asking for a ridiculously huge delivery zone. If I were Peppe I'd be hugely happy I didn't have to serve her anything from my restaurant again.
