Zappi's Pizzeria

This week to fulfil the quota for pizza craving I went to Zappi's Pizza a decently built pizzeria which has been around Niagara Falls since 1971. It was a family operated business which believed in serving the freshest of ingredients and making the best of pizzas for their local and out of town customers. However, after being in operation for 15 years Zappi's closed its gates to their customers. In 2002, the family again opened their gates to Niagara Falls after remodelling and renovating their kitchen and restaurant. The interior of Zappi's  has a unique charm to it. It stands out as a very authentic Italian pizzeria with its checkered tablecloths and brick patterned walls. 

We were greeted well and shown to our seats by the lady who was serving us.  We were told that Zappies allows kids to make their own pizza and bake it for them. For a small family owned restaurant that cannot afford kids play area, this is a great way to keep them occupied. After we sat down our waiter asked for our food and drink order. 

Our drinks and pizza arrived after 20 minutes as there was no rush in the restaurant. We ordered a chicken and cheese pizza with other toppings and ordered soda for drinks. Our food looked decent and tasted pretty good as well. It was a budget pizza and we couldn't ask for more. A friend of mine told me that the food used to be better when the owner was around this summer. and now it's not up to the mark. However, this journey for Niagara's best pizzeria has brought me to some pretty bad pizzas hence I found Zappi's quite good.

I would advise people to visit Zappi's if they want a large pizza at a considerable price of 22 dollars or a 24 slices pizza for 30 dollars. Zappi's has the potential to improve its pizza and attract a larger customer base if they improve their product a bit more and concentrate on consistency of their product. 

Score: 3/5
