Jim and I were on our way home from a quick trip from Hudson, N.H. after visiting friends. We were both hungry and planned to stop at a different restaurant but THAT restaurant had an hour wait time and we were hungry on the verge of “HANGRY”! We drove a little further and that brought us to 900 Degree Pizzeria in Epping NH! 900 Degree pizzeria has two locations, the one in Epping as well as one in Manchester.
With “hangry “starting to step in (hangry is a combination of hungry and angry! Never good!) We ordered drinks and an appetizers within just a couple minutes of walking through the door. We had the rustic garlic bread. Their garlic bread is loaded with fresh garlic, oregano, Grana Padano and mozzarella and this is served with their red sauce. No sooner did this hit the table, we were diving right into it! This was crispy, cheesy, herby and delicious dipped in the red sauce! The “hangry” feeling quickly left as we enjoyed our garlic bread!
We also ordered one of the drink specials of the day. It was a strawberry basil margarita and it was the best margarita Jim and I have ever had! Sweet, tangy and refreshing on a hot summer day!
Deciding on a pizza was a tough choice! They have lots of amazing choices, but we decided to go with their most popular pizza the Bella Cosa! The Bella Cosa has a roasted garlic cream sauce, Grana Padano, mozzarella, baby spinach, carmelized red onion, rosemary, ham, prosciutto and a drizzle of EVOO! We ordered a large pizza for $16.50.
I can completely understand why this pizza is their top seller. This is sweet with the garlic cream sauce and caramelized onions but also savory and salty with the ham and prosciutto. Great combination of flavors and one we would order again!
When we arrived we did not spend much time looking at the appetizers but they have plenty of great choices with some that you would expect and maybe some you might not! Chicken wings, their signature meatballs, a cheese board or how about a hummus plate? All sound delicious to me!
Choosing a pizza is going to be the most difficult part! Lots of great choices. But you can also make your own! Some of their signature pizzas include a mac and cheese pizza with bacon and bread crumbs or how about Newton’s Revenge with red pepper pesto, mozzarella cheese, goat cheese, caramelized onions, roasted chicken, figs, finished with basil and balsamic reduction! How delicious does that sound? YUM
Soups and salad too, just in case you want something a little lighter. They have a soup of the day and lots of great salads. The signature 900 salad has organic greens, balsamic vinaigrette, dried cranberries, honey roasted walnuts and caramelized red onion. Something new to their salad menu is the chicken walnut cranberry salad! Not in the mood for any of that? How about a sandwich or panini? They have lots of great choices for those too! Maybe a meatball sub with their signature meatballs? How about a chicken caprese panini? Or a classic Italian sub? Lots to pick from…this menu does not miss anything!
Are you wondering about dessert? Amazing choices here too! If cannoli’s or tiramisu are not what you are looking for maybe a molten lava cake or their famous dessert pizza with a cinnamon sugar crust topped with chunks of white and dark chocolate, macadamia nuts, whipped cream and topped with kiwi’s and strawberries! I’m pretty sure that dessert pizza is in my future!
