Editorial Review for Matthew's Pizzeria – by Rachele Lawton

The Scene
Walking into Matthew's Pizza feels like walking into the past. Reminiscent of Italian pizzerias from times gone by, this place looks like it did on opening day more than 55 years ago. Matthew's recipes haven't changed, and neither has Baltimore's adoration for this long-time neighborhood establishment. Red and white checked tablecloths and an old-fashioned coke-bottle case help add to the atmosphere.

The Food
Matthew's thick crust, homemade sauce and perfect amount of cheese leave most pizza lovers thinking they've died and gone to heaven. You can order your pizza your way, but if you're really hungry, try Anna's Stuffed Pie, a regular pizza stuffed with your choice of meat. It's sinful and unbelievably filling. Other Italian favorites include pastas, subs and cold cuts, all handmade daily. On salads or antipasto, the house dressing is divine.

this is the best pizza in baltimore and those who wrote bad reviews, I dont believe you. either you have no idea what good is, or you have been eating garbage for so long when you finally eat something wonderfull your body rejects it. stick to catus willies where you can have your favorite steak and eat it with a spork.

Pros: the choices!

Cons: the neighborhood

IF you are a pizza conasuour, and you have not tried Matthews then you are lacking in your understanding of what a perfect pizza is and taste like. Words alone cannot describe the Taste of this delite. A perfectly balanced sauce (with real fresh tomato chucks) on a crust that even thou it is thick does not fill you up when you reallize that you just ate a large all by yourself and have room to seek a piece off your wifes plate, and the cheese is fresh and not put on just cover the pie, but just enough to make it perfect .( it has those brown well done spots that taste like heaven) Accompanying the pizza with a couple of your favorite Stewarts sodas adds to the meal to make it more then "Hey "hon", you feelin' like pizza tonite"? and she replies" yea, but lets go up to the Ave and get a " Large Matthews Both Cheese"! To which my reply is "Okay, but what are you goin' to eat!!!" Trust Me you will not regret it one bit!

Pros: Get goin', what are waitin' for. simply put the best!

Cons: none
