RWDW1204 Posted July 28, 2020 Report Posted July 28, 2020 Love it! Especially considering there's no other pizza choices and limited food options at midnight after a day/night of drinking. ehw51 and Wethen 2 Quote
Ampurp85 Posted July 28, 2020 Report Posted July 28, 2020 I am from Chicago......Sorrento's is good cruise pizza, especially late at night at a comedy show or silent disco. ehw51 1 Quote
ehw51 Posted July 28, 2020 Report Posted July 28, 2020 Whether you love it or hate it it is always there to fill the void. I have learned to love it, the ability to grab a slice or 2 for a quick bite ANYTIME or ask for a special pie. I have grown to appreciate sorrento´s cruisellama, SpeedNoodles and RWDW1204 3 Quote

We're talking about Sorrento's again! Let the love it/hate it debate begin! AGAIN!!! I found it good on Allure and Indy. On Harmony, it was what I call "replacement level" pizza - basically, it's that Chain Pizza Place (I'll not dignify them by saying "pizzeria") that you go to. Not because it's great pizza, but because it's convenient and you do not object to eating there. I guess what I'm saying is that I had zero objections to eating it. Kind of wish they had Detroit style though. JimnKathy 1 Quote

KWong Posted July 29, 2020 Report Posted July 29, 2020 Here is a good article describing it tl;dr: It's a pan pizza with a puffy dough, "light" crunchy crust and cheese that goes all the way to the edges. Quote

KWong Posted July 30, 2020 Report Posted July 30, 2020 37 minutes ago, HeWhoWaits said: Papa John's That is barely pizza, imo. If I were to rank chain pizza places I'd go: 1. Pizzaiolo (Toronto area chain) 2. Pizza Nova, Hut, -ville 3. Pizza Pizza (my replacement level) 4. Mamas. Little Caesar's ... (Indeterminate ranking) Week old leftover pizza. ... Infinity + 1. Domino's and Papa John's Actually, the closest you're going to get from a chain is Little Caesar's "Deep Deep" pizza. The look is meant to be recognizable as a Detroit-style, but the taste is definitely Chain Pizza Place. Quote

They have a really nice Detroit style pizza. Better than Little Caesar's in our opinion. Quote

ellcee Posted July 31, 2020 Report Posted July 31, 2020 Sorrento's does the trick if you're hungry and drank a bit but I don't think I understand eating this on purpose...during the day...undrunk....but I may be spoiled, I don't eat pizza out of the New York/New Jersey area. I haven't eaten chain pizza since my college years. Ogilthorpe, ehw51, USCG Teacher and 1 other 4 Quote
ehw51 Posted July 31, 2020 Report Posted July 31, 2020 We only buy local family owned pizza, haven´t bought chain pizza in years. I am not saying I would go out or my way for Sorrentos on land but ya can´t beat it on a ship. JMO Ogilthorpe 1 Quote

I cheat and use the premade dough (the ones in bags, not the one in tubes), but I agree - it's tasty, you can put what you want on there, and the kids have fun doing it. OT, but I've also made garlic knots and sticky buns using the premade dough. Quote
JennyB Posted August 4, 2020 Report Posted August 4, 2020 because i live with a 17yo DS, i will NEVER choose pizza while on a cruise...because when I'm cruising, i'm taking a vacation from pizza...If others go there, I always get something NOT pizza. Neesa and Baked Alaska 2 Quote
Ent Posted September 29, 2020 Report Posted September 29, 2020 I enjoy NY style pizza, cafeteria pizza, 7-11 pizza, etc.... I really enjoyed Sorrento's pizza but definitely would put the taste as similar to cafeteria pizza. I would get it once or twice the entire length of the cruise as a snack but not usually as a meal.

I enjoy deep dish only if I can get rid of all the tomato sauce. To each their own! Lombardi's ricotta with sausage in NY was super delicious both times I went. Albeit that was also like a decade ago.. Quote

You've got Toasted Ravioli, Panera, and Bernie Federko, among others. But provel does not taste good on pizza. I'm sorry, it just doesn't. Quote
HeWhoWaits Posted October 4, 2020 Report Posted October 4, 2020 Adding provel to pizza would be akin to dropping on some Velveeta. At least provel has some positives in other applications, unlike the processed-cheese-like-food-resembling-product sold nationwide. Quote
