Pizzeria Toro was simply inexplicable. The flavors and crispy crust of
the pizza we ordered really hits the spot on a cold winter night in down
town Durham, North Carolina, not to mention the husky/warm ambiance of
the joint located on Main Street.
I simply cannot forget how succulent the lamb meatballs were, napped
with a sprinkling of rapini and cacio di Roma, which was distributed
about three to a slice.
And I simply cannot forget the soft egg, mushroom, and arugula pizza, or
the buffalo mozzarella pizza slathered with San Marzanos.
We ordered three desserts- a pear crostata with sprigs of mint,
Gianduja Budino topped with hazelnuts and a almond cookie, and two
cannoli filled with an unsweetened creme fresh esque Filling. Everything
was lovely, and dessert was refreshing and a nice wrap up to a
delicious meal, though I was not as partial to the creme fresh over a
sweetened filling (my sweet tooth talking). But the meal left little to
none to be desired, and I was quite pleased by the exquisite flavors and
abilities that this fairly new business posed for a dinner option of
foodies in the triangle.
On my rating scale, 100% being incredible and 0% being horrible, I
hereby give the staff, ambiance, and of course, food, at Pizzeria Toro a
95%.
