Pizza fanatics went wild when Miami's Pizza Rustica opened an outpost in Lauderdale -- this is designer Tuscan pizza, thinly crusted, topped with imaginative combos like spinach and blue cheese, porcini mushrooms, prosciutto, yellow squash, four cheese, and arugula-rosemary-potato. The "campagnola" features sweet sausage, roasted peppers, sweet onions, and plum tomato sauce; the "putanesca" is covered in Sicilian anchovies, kalamata olives, jalapenos, red onions, and pepperoni. Single slices, which are the size of a laptop and require two paper plates to hold, all cost substantially under $5. Order three and they'll even deliver 'em, but if you can down three of these babies, you're probably a competitive-eating champ. One's a meal.

They call it a slice, that slab of pizza in front of you. It looks about the size of a laptop and sits on two paper plates. Cut from Pizza Rustica's signature square pans of the stuff, these are a meal cut into three-bite squares. They come with... More »
Sorry: lauding the slices of pizza at Rustica is painfully obvious, but what choice do we have? Pizza Rustica churns out slices that could make even New Yorkers consider relocating, slices so big they're meals, slices so full of flavor that even after getting painfully stuffed you'll find yourself grabbing another to go because you have to try that amazing-looking pie with the capers. Pizza Rustica's crusts are hefty but not too thick, and their copious toppings are fresh and inventive. We're quite partial to the Pizza La Bella (a white pizza with Alfredo sauce, fresh mozz, smoked ham, and kalamata olives) and Pizza Portuguese (tomato sauce, mozz, ham, red onions, hearts of palm, sweet peas, and olive oil), but we're just as likely to keep it simple. The Pizza con Spinaci e Blue Cheese is a spinach and blue cheese pizza full of angular flavors grounded by that fabulous crust, and the Quattro Formaggi makes you wonder why other pizza joints don't use gorgonzola. They should.
This pizza is sooo good, they bake the crust to perfection.
