Let’s Talk about Umberto’s Pizzaria
Let’s talk about Umbertos pizzaria! Now I’ve been going to Umbertos for as long as I have been in Tulsa and have never ever got a bad pie. Every time I go it is exactly the same, which is rare in my experience. There are several pizzerias I love in Tulsa, but some days I get 9 rated Pie, and others it’s a 7. At Umbertos, I get an 8.5 every time.
And when going to Umbertos, never forget garlic Knots. These little guys are hot and crispy on the outside, while being soft and warm on the inside. Also, did I mention they were covered in garlic and parmesan? Biting into one of these suckers is a memorable event. It is half the reason I go back!
Just about the time I am crunching down on the fifth of the order of six knots I am sharing, in comes the big boy! That 20” all meat pie, with eight slices of heaven. Take it from me, give it a moment to cool. I was warned by my better half to grab a fork if I was going to dive in with it smoking hot. But I ain’t no bitchmade fat boy, and this wasn’t my first rodeo. I dug in, folded that mother trucker in half, and went for it. Sure, half of the toppings ended up in my lap, and my fire dance resulted in laying down a blanket of porktastic shrapnel across my wife and the tablel, but it eventually made its mark! And was it delicious. I went into one of my favorite pie houses with 1600 calories to spend, and I’m sure I overshot it by 1000. I cleared half that pizza, and left with the sweats!
Another reason I love Umbertos is it is the most reasonably priced in Tulsa, with the largest selection of sizes. I personally love their smallest pizza! Not that a pizza ever lasts me long enough to get soggy, but the crust of that small holds together better and stays crisp longer than any pizza I have ever had. It is like a different pizza, so delicious!
What else is there to say? Great consistent pizza, great garlic knots and great prices! Everyone is always friendly. I have never had a bad experience. If you have not had Umbertos Pizza, you need to. It is a Tulsa staple, and there is a reason for that!
