After a week-long period of fasting, I was craving some real good pizzas. And what other place than experiencing a culinary pizza nirvana at Smoke House Pizzeria in DLF Avenue, Saket?! At this pizzeria, each dish is carefully and lovingly crafted by Chef Neha and her team, and served hot by the impeccable Mr. Rana, which enhances the overall experience of dining and makes it full of flavours and finesse.
We started our pizza party by sipping on their inventive cocktails like the Cookie Dough Martini, Apple Pie Moonshine, and Chickoo Chocolate Vodka. These fusion cocktails set the stage for a memorable, and a tipsy dining experience! Our favourite has to be their boozy shake Cookie Dough Martini which tasted beautiful and felt like we were sipping on a dessert! The Apple Pie Moonshine cocktail was the “pick-me-up” we needed and it was a tangy sweet fusion of green apples with liqueurs of 5 kinds!
We then satiated our palates with Smoke House’s appetizers like the Chunky Guacamole with Nachos and Truffle Cream. The creamy crunchy textures of the dish paved the way for the star of the show – the pizzas.
From the Centurione Thin Crust Pizza to the Pepperoni and Bacon Pizza, each slice embodied perfection, complemented by the rustic ambiance that added to the dining charm. As we sipped on the chug-worthy boozy shakes and savoured every bite of the Naked Lamb and Babaganoush Pizza or the Roasted Bell Pepper, Mushroom, Cheddar Panuzzo—we were transported to the lands of Italy!
The Centurione Thin Crust Pizza boasted a perfect balance of flavours and textures, with a crispy thin crust topped with a savoury blend of premium ingredients. The Prosciutto and Rucola Pizza elevated the dining experience with the salty richness of prosciutto perfectly complemented with the freshness of peppery arugula, creating a gourmet sensation that delights the palate. The Peri Peri Chicken Panuzzo, on the other hand, was a spicy and savoury delight that packed a punch of flavors. The tender peri peri chicken was complemented by the fluffy panuzzo crust, creating a satisfyingly hearty pizza experience with a fiery kick.
As our pizza journey reached its crescendo, we had spoonfuls of desserts like the Basque Cheesecake with Raspberry Compote and the Biscoff Cheesecake. The Biscoff Cheesecake was a heavenly treat for lovers of the iconic Biscoff cookie. The creamy cheesecake base was infused with the irresistible flavour of Biscoff, while the crumbled cookie crust added a delightful crunch. Our favourite has to be the Basque Cheesecake—baked and burnt to perfection and the dollop of whipped cream and raspberry compote just elevated our experience to new heights of gastronomic pleasure!
With scrumptious pizzas, aesthetic rustic vibes, and chug-worthy boozy shakes, Smoke House Pizzeria stands tall as the best pizza place in town, offering not just a meal, but an unforgettable symphony of flavors and experiences.
