LA Pizza Rina is probably one of my favorite places to get pizza.

A 13″ medium pizza with two toppings cost $13.00. Not bad. But what is bad is the skimpy ass portion. Today we decided to get a medium pizza, with with three toppings instead of two. Each additional topping is only .60 cents. I had three quarters in my pocket I was planning on saving for drying my laundry when I got back home, but sometimes enjoying your meal is worth went panties. I remember the sausage was phenomenal last time so I ordered sausage, with extra sausage and pepperoni, 3 toppings right? As you can see, my wet laundry wasn’t worth it. There’s barely three pieces of sausage per slice. What a shitty deal.

Oh well, so I got sausage fucked, doesn’t change my love for them. Check out the stringy cheese on these babies. In my last post on them I mentioned the stringiness of their cheese. Here’s the proof. Love it.

We also shared the La Pizza Rina Super Sub, 12″-$.6.95. This is a better deal than Quiznos.

As you can see all three of us were able to get a generous portion. I’m not really a sandwich whore but today the sandwich surprisingly hit the spot. I think I enjoyed it more than the pizza.

Ham, salami, capicola, pepperoni and cheese with tomatoes, lettuce, onions, and La Pizza Rina’s Special Sauce. If you love pizza and sandwiches you should definitely make this you next outing.

Here’s my last review on La Pizza Rina.

I’ve passed by this place several times thinking, one day, I’m gonna give it a try. One day finally came and I did stop, checked out the menu and thought, “no thanks, nothing really sounds that enticing or cheap enough to convince me it’s enticing,” so I left. Finally I made my way back to this place again and thought, “fuck it, let’s give it a shot.”

There’s a few tables to the side of the building. Grab them fast or you’ll find yourself eating in the car or taking your food home.

Ray was in the mood for Banana Pancakes today, $6.50. A stack came with three large fluffy pancakes topped with powdered sugar and was accommodated with three packets of syrup and some butter.

You can see big chunks of banana in the pancakes and when Ray realized he had mowed through half the pancakes without even asking me if I wanted to give it a taste, he says, “wow, these are really hitting the spot right now.” I’m so happy those pancakes are working out for you.

I got the breakfast special, $6.50. It came with eggs, cooked the way you like, your choice of meat, I picked polish sausage, and white or brown rice, I chose white.  If you like you could also add substitute fried rice for $1.50.  In my opinion $1.50 is a lot to pay to substitute a small about of rice. It was a nice surprise to see a piece of biscuit inside because the menu didn’t mention it. I didn’t realize until I got half way through that I was really going to finish the whole plate. Everything was really good and my plate hit the spot quite nicely just as well. I cut up my pieces of sausage and sliced up my egg and just mixed it all together with some soy sauce and pepper. I hate it when my food and eggs come out super greasy and as you can see nothing was too greasy here.

Overall I think I like this place. The prices are alright and the food is really good. They also have a full menu for lunch or just come and visit the market inside. It doesn’t hurt to look and there’s a ton of stuff to see. If your not hungry now, don’t worry you will be later. You can pick out premade, not frozen meals that you can cook up later. There’s lots of wine, bread and my favorite, dessert. Oh, there’s also premade salads and wraps for you healthier folks. Come, check, check, check it out.

If you ask me, the Greek Corner puts out some of the best Greek food on the island for the best price. Honestly, there’s not a lot to choose from. I think there’s more Indian restaurants here than Greek restaurants and if I’m correct then that’s pretty freakin depressing.. The ones I can think of off the top of my head are, Olive Tree, The Fat Greek, and then some random stands here and there.

This place looks like a Greek restaurant had sex with a pizza restaurant.

At this place a whole combo meal is large enough for two. Ray and I got the Lamb Soulvaki, $11.95. What a deal. As you can see it was a combo of grilled chunks of lamb marinated in special spices  and served with Greek salad, basamati rice and pita bread. Everything was pleasantly flavorful, just as I had remembered.

At only .75 cents we could afford to order more pita bread.

I haven’t had the chance to try the gyros here, but only because the combo plates are such a steal that I always end up getting those instead. But I did get a chance to skim the menu and this place definitely beats The Fat Greek and Olive Tree if your looking for a bargain. All of their gyros are $6.95, Greek Salad is $6.95 and there’s plenty of vegetarian options. Here’s a look at their menu if you want to check it out.

I’m definitely a fan of this place. If you do decide to take a visit here there’s parking to side of the place, your right side if your facing the building, just drive up the ramp. It’s free with validation. The first time I came here I ended up parking in the parking lot at the corner and that cost me five bucks. Don’t park there, it’s slightly further and cost money.
