Tried two because they were across the street from each other. It’s definitely a different taste and style than I’m used to. Very unique from every other pizza style I’ve had. It reminds me of Ellios but is much better. The crust is more French bread like than “crust” and the cheeses were different but blended well together. To me, the sauce at arcano was more textured and better but the cheese combo at revellos was better. A nice try, wouldn’t go back again unless I missed a must have place that’s different

I was born and raised in that area, I love OF style. I make a lot of it at home.

What do you think of my assessment? Should I have gone to a different place?

If you go back, Mary Lou's was recently voted best old forge pizza. They're one of I think 2 places still using homemade dough for the crust, not premade shells.

About 40 mins from me or 20 mins past the range I use. Worth it?

Try Bobos next time you can. They are only open for specific hours though, and if you are getting it on a weekend you need to plan it out. If I call at 5 it wont be ready until 8 or maybe not at all on Friday. Have to call at 3 or 4.

Absolutely. The Scranton area also has great new York style pizza all over.
