Fast service and delicious pizzas. Fun hipster vibe. Enjoyed the salad. The Queen Anne veggie pizza wasn’t my favorite due to the strong mushrooms, but I look forward to going back to try another.
If you want to eat the best food in Durham, stop here. The pizza is the obvious choice, and you really can't go wrong. I'll usually get a couple single slices of their specialty pies.
The big underdog though is the chicken wings! Best I've had in the area, and that was a total surprise.
It may be that "The Jerry" is the ideal and perfect pizza. Beginning with the crust, as one must, the crust has the correct ratio of crispiness to chewiness one expects in the better pie. The dough yields the best pie foundation I have ever encountered. The sauce must be made on site. The recipe is balanced such that the tomato expresses itself without any of the nasty overly sweetness of the industrial sauces. The application of the sauce is metered precisely such that the crust is not liquefied yet generous enough that the joyful consumer is aware of what is good and right in the world. The sausage is (I believe locally) made by someone who is obviously skilled, knowledgeable, and caring. The combination of the sausage and pepperoni balanced by the ample mozzarella evokes memories of the wonder of childhood and one's first encounter with the glory that is pizza. The clever folks at Pie Pushers are willing to work with the particular taste of their customers, I personally recommend the addition of mushrooms to complete pizza satisfaction.
Please note, the Madrona Salad is by far the best salad available on the market anywhere. As a salad, it is peerless. The eggplant fries are also a delight...I could go on...
The gentle folk at Pie Pushers will also bring this glory to you should you reside in their range. Courteous and prompt no less.
God Bless the Pie Pushers and their work. Amen.
I was very impressed with this place. While a bit hard to find, the service and wings in particular we're pretty spectacular making their wing special days a must go. Their dry rub was awesome and worth a trip back as were their fries and wing sauces for dipping.
Awesome place. Superb pizza and delicious chicken wings. Service is very fast and polite. Better get there early. This place fills up quick.
