Pizza Luce

I've only been to the Pizza Luce on Lyndale and 32nd. I've had a slice at Grand Old Days in St. Paul. I've also had pizza delivered from the one in St. Paul when I was participating in a fantasy football draft. In all instances, I enjoyed the pizza. I don't remember the slice I had at Grand Old Days, but it was something appropriately Pizza Lucean with an assortment of toppings. At the draft we had The Bear (Pepperoni, marinated chicken, ground beef, Canadian bacon, homemade Italian sausage and mozzarella cheese on red sauce), and a make your own that had somthing unusual on it, but was very good. When we went to the restaurant we ordered the Baked Potato Pizza (Pizza crust smothered in buttery-garlic baby red mashed potatoes and topped with broccoli, fresh diced tomatoes, cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of smoked apple hickory bacon. Served with a side of sour cream). I've told friends who aren't from around here about it and there was a range of reactions from angry to intrigued. The angry reaction seems surprising, but if you know the guy it's not. Maybe I shouldn't count that reaction. We also had some nice salads, I had the Ceaser, which was traditional and nice. We ate outside and were attacked by mosquitoes, but I don't really blame Pizza Luce for that. If we had more disposable income and still went out in the evening, we would definitely eat at Pizza Luce more. They have a nice selection or beers on tap and in bottles as well. I think they do wine, too. So to sum up, good, non-traditional pizza, good traditional ceaser salad and nice been selection. I'm sure there's much more, but I'm just telling you what I know. OK then.
