September 24th, 2009

Popeye Pizza from Co., via Yelp

The Basics: Co. is a rebellious newcomer pizza station by Jim Lahey who pioneered Sullivan Street Bakery, which supplies its acclaimed dough to gourmet stores and restaurants all over the city.  He brings his bread expertise to chewy, charr-crusted pizzas that are light on sauce but loaded with crisp greens and a myriad cheeses. Prepare to wait for these pies as they don’t take reservations and the restaurant is always packed.
Food: Very Good
Best Dish: The Popeye pizza (pictured above) with spinach, pecorino, gruyere, buffalo mozzarella, black pepper and garlic.
Drinks: Well-priced wines like a $39 Monastrell from Spain and a $35 Cabernet from Barossa Valley are served in stemless water cups to add to the laid-back attitude.
Service: Very Good
Average App/Entree Price: $8/$17
Value: Very Good
Location: 230 Ninth Avenue
You Gonna Finish That? Every last bite.
