Twin's Pizza

  • July 30, 2006

Sure, you can get a good Italian-style entree, but if you are going to come here, you MUST get the pizza. In business for almost 50 years, Twin's has been serving families that just keep coming back for more. Take me, for instance. My mother went into labor there with me!

Start off with an antipasto. The iceberg lettuce, veggies, and meat is piled high and accompanied with a basket of bread. But don't fill up on this--leave room for the pizza.

Ahhhh... the pizza. The only way to order this is by getting a large and having it cooked "medium". This rectangular-shaped pizza has the exact number of toppings on each slice. They are perfectly placed in the middle of each piece. The vegetables are fresh, as are the meat choices. Don't get frustrated when it takes awhile for your pizza to come out. Trust me when I say that it is well worth it.

The decor of the restaurant is rather interesting. They built an extension to their existing shop in the late '80s. Now, from the outside, it looks like "twin" buildings. As you enter, you'll either be seated right away or have to wait in the waiting area. This room is walled with plastic chairs, a TV, and a toy game for the kids. Once called, you'll enter the first room. The decor has not changed since perhaps they opened! The lights are your fashionable 6'0s style with wood paneling walls. The booths along the perimeter have miniature jukeboxes that will play songs for $0.25. If you continue through this room, you may be seated in the second room. The decor is more of the early '90s, with more tables and chairs than booths.

If your children need to use the "facilities", you may want to check on them. They have the automated toilets, sinks, and dryers that can keep kids busy for awhile. My brothers used to frequent the facilities to "make sure everything was working."
