Happy New Year! 2015 is the year Dr. Brown and Marty McFly visited in Back to the Future 2. No, you drunk idiot cub fans, their prediction of the cubs winning the World Series will NOT come true this year. The only Cubs fan who deserves to see the Cubs win the World Series, is Steve Bartman. He did NOTHING wrong, it was the loser cubs who blew the lead in Game 6 AND Game 7 of the 2003 NLCS! I would love to see either the Chicago White Sox or the Miami Marlins win the 2015 World Series, it would be the ultimate insult to those drunk idiot cub fans!
So, I decided to get into a flying DeLorean, or is it a hoverboard, and go back to the future, when I found about about Jay's Pizza in Monterey Park. Jay's Pizza used to be Joe's Pizza, a restaurant I reviewed back in 2007. I don't know if Jay's and Joe's are owned by the same owners, I honestly can't remember how their pizza tasted, so I can't compare the two.
Jay's is a small restaurant with about four tables and a huge TV on the north wall. They have a great special every Wednesday and Sunday, a jumbo, 18 in. pizza with one topping for $12 tax included.
Jumbo, 18 in, with mushrooms. The crust is crisp at the bottom and soft and chewy in the middle. The sauce was a slightly sweet, mild spiced sauce. There is a very healthy amount of cheese on the pizza, that made for a gooey mess-which I love on a pizza. The amount of fresh mushrooms were a bit lacking, but for $12, I can understand why. I liked the pizza and would certainly order it again.
Service was below average. They had two kids working, who were more concerned about the Cowboys-Lions playoff game, than helping customers. The guy who took my order never bothered to say thank you after I paid for my pizza.
I would come back to Jay's Pizza, but service does need to improve!
