During our most recent visit, the place was packed, and we discovered even more dishes to love. We knew we were smitten on our very first visit to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/pizza-rock-opens-to-rave-reviews-including-ours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pizza Rock Las Vegas<\/a>, but it keeps getting better each time we stop by.<\/p>\n<p>Pizza Rock has swooped in and snagged the title of &ldquo;Best Pizza Downtown,&rdquo; and is a contender for &ldquo;Best Pizza in Las Vegas,&rdquo; too. Here are six items we think you&rsquo;ll love at Pizza Rock.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Italian Fries<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This appetizer will satisfy cravings you didn&rsquo;t even know you had! You get to choose between three kinds, Gorgonzola, Rosemary Garlic or Truffle.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3899\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3899\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-3899 \" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt='The Italian Fries provide your first \"Pace yourself\" moment.' width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love4.jpg\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3899\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Italian Fries provide your first &ldquo;Pace yourself&rdquo; moment.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>2. Classic Meatballs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If we ever elope with an appetizer, it may just be with the classic meatballs at Pizza Rock. Again, these meatballs are among the most delicious we&rsquo;ve had in Las Vegas, downtown or on The Strip.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3900\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3900\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-3900 \" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt='The classic meatballs are made with a blend of three kinds of meat.

New Yorker Pizza<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One cannot live by&nbsp;Pizza Margherita alone (Pizza Rock only makes 73 of its&nbsp;Napoletana-style Margherita pizza a day, so get on that), therefore we had to try the restaurant&rsquo;s award-winning New Yorker pizza and found ourselves falling in love all over again. This $23 pizza is touted as having been named &ldquo;Best Traditional in the World,&rdquo; and features sliced mozzarella, tomato sauce, house link sausage, garlic, pepperoni and adorable little kisses of ricotta.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3901\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3901\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-3901 \" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt=\"Just plain awesome.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love1.jpg\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3901\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&ldquo;Kisses of Ricotta&rdquo; would make a pretty great band name.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>4. Dessert Calzone<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If we seem a little anxious to get to the dessert course, that&rsquo;s because we were a little anxious to get to the dessert course! The Dessert Calzone has Fuji apples, brown sugar, cinnamon and a caramel drizzle, voted &ldquo;One of Our Favorite Kinds of Drizzle.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3902\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3902\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-3902 \" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt=\"You get two of these flavorful dessert calzones, and a scoop of vanilla gelato, a taste of things to come.\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love3.jpg\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3902\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">You get two of these flavorful dessert calzones, and a scoop of vanilla gelato, a taste of things to come.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>5. Gelato<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One scoop is never enough of anything, so make sure to order multiples of Pizza Rock&rsquo;s gelato. The flavors change, but vanilla and chocolate are a fairly sure bet. The third scoop here is coconut.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3903\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3903\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-3903 \" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt=\"The gelato tastes like it was hand-crafted by somebody's Italian grandmother.\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love5.jpg\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3903\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The gelato tastes like it was hand-crafted by somebody&rsquo;s Italian grandmother, although we can&rsquo;t guarantee anyone&rsquo;s actual grandmother was involved.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>6. Mud Pie<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All we can say is you&rsquo;ll love Pizza Rock&rsquo;s Mud Pie dessert as much as its pizza pies. You ready? The Mud Pie has house-made Oreo cookie crust and chocolate ganache, coffee and vanilla bean-flavored ice cream, and is topped with hot fudge, caramel and house-made whipped cream.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3904\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3904\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-3904 \" style=\"border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"\/vitalvegas\/dist\/images\/common\/transparent_3x2.gif\" alt=\"In Las Vegas, it is strictly forbidden to worry about your calorie count.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/pizza_rock_love6.jpg\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3904\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In Las Vegas, it is strictly forbidden to worry about your calorie count.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The sacrifices we make for you!<\/p>\n<p>There&rsquo;s so much to love at Pizza Rock Las Vegas, we can&rsquo;t wait to visit again.<\/p>\n<p>We only have two gripes about the joint. The music&rsquo;s a little too loud, and the bar doesn&rsquo;t carry Captain Morgan spiced rum. Thankfully, those things seems to pale by comparison to the great service and unbelievable food. (Note: Mob Bar, next door, has Captain Morgan, and the folks at Pizza Rock didn&rsquo;t tackle us when we brought in an outside cocktail. Just another reason to love Pizza Rock.)<\/p>\n<p>Here&rsquo;s the official <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pizzarocklasvegas.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pizza Rock Las Vegas site,<\/a> and we&rsquo;ll see you downtown.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pizza Rock, a new restaurant in downtown Las Vegas, is absolutely crushing it.
