5 Buck Pizza

There is a NEW pizza shop in town. Rexburg has always been hot over "Craigo's Pizza", a pizza joint that has been here throughout the ages and is locally owned and operated. There has never been another locally owned pizza place that even attempted to challenge Craigo's. It has always been common knowledge that Craigos just had the best pizza in town. SO, we wanted to try the new 5 BUCK PIZZA place that just opened this Fall on Main Street, downtown Rexburg, Idaho. We wanted to see if they are going to be able to give Craigo's a run for their money AND this is what we found out...

The pizza dough is heavenly! If you are looking for nothing more than a homemade pizza, this is the place for you. The dough is fluffy, the sauce has a very strong tomato sauce flavor, they pile the cheese on really thick, and the pizza isn't topped with any spices. It is a very AMERICAN homestyle pizza. There isn't anything special about it. I don't think you can call it a restaurant, it's more of a pizza shop. It is very small. They do have two large flat screen TVs mounted on the only two walls in the shop that were showing the Monday Night Football game when we were there. Their production speeds were incredibly slow. So, unless you have a lot of time on your hands, 5 Buck Pizza may not be the place for you. For the money, I think that the Craigo's All You Can Eat Buffet is still the way to go. You are in and you are out with a full belly too! We'd like to know what you think?! Which pizza place do you prefer and why? Leave your comments here and let us know...
