Flour Pizza: Sterile ambience, good pizza.

The Everything.

UPDATE: Flour Pizza has since closed.

The minimalist communal interior and drippy mood music were rather intimidating upon first entering Flour Pizza, nestled between Jimmy John’s and Smokey D’s BBQ in the Nationwide Insurance building on the corner of 13th and Locust Streets. After the initial shock subsided, I stepped up to the counter and placed my order.

The Everything is a solid filling slice. Good crisp on the crust’s bottom. Topped with abundant cheese and a good mix of pepperoni, sausage, black olives, ham, mushrooms, and roasted red peppers.

The bright Caprese sports a interesting mix of cherry tomatoes, red grapes, and dried basil. A thicker, bready crust asserts itself against the subdued flavors.

The Verde offers broccoli, caramelized onions, zucchini, and a brush of pesto underneath the cheese. The abundance of sautéed veggies imparts a distracting oiliness. In comparison, the Caprese's clean, simple tastes are refreshing.
