Came here as a local for the first time and can’t believe I’ve missed out this long on actual good pizza, the thin crust won over the regular but only because I wanted to eat an entire medium. I really enjoyed the breadsticks too. Our table got a few different items and they were all superb. We actually had a mistake happen and the owner Victor came over, asked what we were missing and took care of it immediately then checked back to make sure all was well. Good local spot, great atmosphere with full bar as well and TVs everywhere for the games. The thin crust cheese was east coast comparable 100%!!

Before I begin, I really wish Google allowed half-star increments because I would give Tuscanos 3.5 stars. That being said, let's get to the point:
The New York calzone is flippin good! It comes dusted with parmesan cheese and has a properly toasted crust. The creamy ricotta and mozzarella play together nicely, and the calzone is generously filled with high quality toppings.
Though I have not had it yet, the lady friend loves the lasagna so I'll take her word that it's really good. She also enjoys the antipasto with Tuscanos unique Italian with bleu cheese dressing.
That pizza, though. I seriously want to like it but it is not very good. It's very similar to other local pizza places in that its flavor profile is very basic and non-descript, not to mention that's floppy as hell and undercooked. Not sure if its the dough or the oven they use, but it lacks the flavor and textural qualities that characterize a good pizza like one might find in Chicago or on the east coast. When we had it delivered, I seriously asked myself if it was delivery or DiGiorno. I still haven't answered that question yet. They should have bought old man AJ's pizza recipe!
Anyway, come here for some good Italian-style eats and a good selection of reasonably priced beer and such but skip the pizza!

The eggplant parmesan had more noodles than eggplant and not much sauce. I've never had eggplant parmesan with noodles. Not the best at all. The antipasto salad was amazing. The pizza my friend had did look amazing. I will try Tuscanos Pizza one more time and just order salad, pizza and a drink from the bar. This was my first time eating at Tuscanos Pizza.
