For a pizza chain that can afford to shut down for a day or more a week, I would say that they are doing quite well - and that is reflected in the price of their pizzas. They are by no means cheap ($19-$22 for a large pizza) but the fresh ingedients, variety and taste is definitely worth it!
I love the texture and thinness of the pizza base (not too thick, not too thin) and their willingness to push beyond traditional pizza flavour boundaries! They make meat, chicken, vegetarian, seafood healthier choice pizzas and calzones (like a sealed pizza).
Highly recommended:
Sweet Chilli Prawn - Marinated tiger prawns, fresh capsicum, shallots, bocconcini, sweet chilli sauce base topped with fresh basil leaves and snow pea sprouts (foodgasm!)
Peri-Peri Chicken - Portugese style chicken breast fillet, shallots, roasted capsicum, caramelised onions, bocconcini cheese, zigzagged with peri-peri sauce
Crust Supreme with chilli - Smoked ham, pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushrooms, fresh capsicum, Spanish onions, pineapple, Kalamata olives - and you have to ask for the chilli!
Others:
Meatball pizza (pictured below) - Homemade Italian meatballs, roasted capsicum, Spanish Onions, sundried tomato, bacon, bocconcini topped with basil and Napoli sauce (tomato based)
After eating Crust pizza, I find it very difficult to eat from the likes of other fast-food pizza chains full of snap-frozen, bland tasting toppings. Get a real pizza - go to Crust!!!
