The lamb was definitely not cooked completely evenly, but I had a perfectly cooked bite that was tender and delicious. I am not the biggest fan of lamb when the flavor is really strong, but this stuff was just right for me. And the sausage and peppers were great.<BR/><BR/>Of course, the main point was to try the pizza, and it was really good. The crust was delicious, though it got a bit soggy and floppy in the middle. But the hearty flavor and crisp outside mostly made up for that. I think I also detected a hint of bakery sweetness in the bread. The sauce was flavorful and present in generous amounts. The sausage tasted fresh and delicious, as did the other toppings. Nice and garlicky. The cheese melted nicely with a good density, and it had a nice salt level. I can't think of a place in Chicago that has pizza quite like this, so I'd be happy to visit Santarpio's again next time I am in Boston.
