Have You Tried the Brussels Sprout Salad at Pizza Antica?
April 14, 2015 | sack
The most talked-about dish at Pizza Antica doesn't arrive with a cheese- and sauce-topped crust; it's a Brussels sprouts salad! Served warm, this popular appetizer toes the line between sweet, salty, and savory; it's a medley of Brussels sprouts, caramelized onions, crunchy croutons, and hard-boiled eggs, tossed in a lemon-y dressing.
That's not to say, though, that pizzas at Pizza Antica aren't worth trying. In fact, regular diners say the thin-crust pies here arrive with just the right amount of char to cheese, sauce to toppings. The fennel sausage pizza is especially well-received, as is the basic marinara pie, which is topped with a sprinkle of toasted garlic, oregano, and a drizzle of olive oil. Pasta and entrees are also on offer at Pizza Antica, with the Tuscan fried chicken reportedly a can't-miss.
Pair your meal with a glass of wine or a pint of beer, and be sure to request a seat on Pizza Antica's cozy outdoor patio.
