Penso's Pizza - Dover

James WFreedom

If you find this review helpful please thumbs up! First a note to new customers - apparently cheese is NOT included as part of the pizza...you MUST order it as a topping! I ordered an XL pepperoni and sausage pizza and specifically asked for extra cheese...I was informed there was an extra fee, but because it was a special it wasn't eligible...ok no big deal, I said I'd throw the extra cheese on at home. I get home and surprise to me - no cheese! It was literally dough, sauce, pepperoni and sausage. Very disappointing - why wouldn't they tell me there was no cheese, when I clearly wanted cheese if I asked about extra cheese??? The sauce was good, as well as the toppings. The dough was too soft and had no crunch (disappointing because other reviews mentioned a crunchy crust). The staff was very friendly. The breadsticks were pretty good tho, those got devoured quickly. My only negatives was the lack of cheese which just really brought down the whole experience as a first time customer and the cost. For the cost I would not go back again, $22+ for dough, sauce, and 2 toppings with no cheese is just not worth it to me. They appeared very busy, so obviously I'm in the minority, but that was my experience and my take away.

I was born and raised in Dover Ohio and for 19 years was lucky enough to get to eat Penso's as much as I wanted. Every time I come back to my hometown that is always the one place I go and get an extra large extra cheese and pepperoni. I constantly crave and wish I could have it since I now live in North Carolina. I have tried Pizza all over the nation and I am telling you Penso's is the best pizza ever created period. All of you who still are in Dover please remember how lucky you are to get to eat pencils whenever you feel like it and feel bad for all of us who wish we could do the same. Enjoy many slices for me thank you! And for any reviewers not giving it 5 stars, you need to never eat pizza again anywhere! You don't deserve food!

Been buying from Penso's in Dover for years, figure should finally give rating. Best pizza shop in the area hands down. Best crust texture and flavor profile around.
