Pizzeria Toro Review

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%.
 Thank you for reading, please come back next week for a review! @pizzeriatoro
