The Leaning Tower of Pizza: A Mixed Bag in Mansfield, Ohio

As I walked into The Leaning Tower of Pizza in Mansfield, Ohio, I was immediately transported back to the 1970s with the loud music and retro decorations plastered on every inch of the walls. This nostalgic hole-in-the-wall pizza joint has been serving up slices for over 30 years, and I was excited to see if their food lived up to the hype.

I ordered a 16-inch pepperoni and sausage pizza and waited patiently for about 25 minutes as it cooked. When my pizza arrived, I took my first bite and was immediately struck by the unremarkable crust. It was dry and dense, bordering on overcooked and serving only as a means to get the toppings to my mouth.

But then I got to the good stuff – the toppings. The sausage had a nice spice to it, which made up for the mediocre crust. Unfortunately, the cheese was a bit of a letdown. It was tough and didn't melt well, causing me to struggle keeping the toppings on my slice. The pepperoni, which was cooked under the cheese with the sausage on top, was a bit of a disappointment as it wasn't crispy like I prefer.

The sauce was another area where the pizza fell short. There was literally no taste from the sauce, so all I could taste was the meat and grease. Overall, I would give this pizza an average score of 6.5 out of 10 on my pizza scale.

While The Leaning Tower of Pizza may not have blown me away with their food, the friendly employee who took my order and the nostalgic atmosphere made for a pleasant dining experience. If you're in Mansfield and craving a slice, this might be worth a try – just don't expect to be wowed by the pizza itself.
