I’ll agree w/ Thomas on that one. I’ve worked in a restaurant and there’s nothing that a kitchen hates more than people walking in around closing time. Granted you guys waited an hour or so before being seated.

How late do they serve until generally? I wonder if the timing had something to do with it. I personally believe that most kitchen staffs severely reduce quality in the last hour or so. They’re busy cleaning up and putting stuff away while taking care of the remaining customers. But, every place is different and the staff here could do it another way.

I agree selection has a lot to do with it. And the blind tasting puts Fritti (and that style) at a distinct disadvantage.

Next time I go, I plan on going when it’s not so crowded, and I’m straight up ordering Margherita or the like.

I was a little upset after doing the blind tasting that it was from Fritti. I ate there about 3 weeks ago and it was the best pizza I’d ever eaten. Bar none. Not soggy, perfectly crispy, great tasting sauce. Couldn’t have been better. But then I had the blind tasting. Way too salty, soggy crust, no sauce (probably because it was sauceless). Just not my style. I’ll definitely be going back to Fritti, I will just be thinking very carefully about my selection.

Agreed on Fritti – disappointing soggy attempts at what should be great pizza based on their pedigree and commitment.

Baraonda has a similar style, but has been very hit or miss for me. My sleeper best pizza in Atlanta is surprisingly Pricci. I haven’t been in a while, and I hate the decor and experience there, but I’ve had some excellent pizza there – what Fritti should be.
