Pizza Ordered: Pepperoni Slice

Victor's pizzeria is my favorite local pizzeria to stop and grab a slice. The owner, Danny, is a really cool dude and very friendly. The pizzeria is located in a shopping mall along Amwell Road, right after crossing over Route 206. This central location puts Victors in the center of town to compete against the other 5 pizzerias within a 10 minute walk: Alfonsos, Angelos, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, and Roman Gourmet. On of the advantages of the location for Victor's is the proximity to the High School and the Park & Ride. This is the closest pizzeria to the High School and right next to an area where students park their cars, so the student crowd will often stop in and grab one of the massive to-go slices. I have fond memories of grabbing a slice after school and then going to the martial arts school I work at for an evening of teaching.
The pizzeria is small and cozy, but has enough seating to pull some tables together for a larger group. The long window on the side by the counter-top seating allows a good amount of light inside and also lets someone eating at the counter to see the going-ons outside. There is a beautiful painted mural along the inside wall of the pizzeria that depicts a scene at a local square in some Mediterranean town where there are children playing soccer, boats in the harbor, and hot pizza being served to happy guests. Often I will look at the mural as I eat and imagine myself in that setting. It's quite peaceful.
The pizza itself is enormous. One of the to-go slices is practically the size of two normal slices. If you enjoy pepperoni, they're quite liberal with the amount they pile onto the slice, so I recommend getting that. The slice is usually pretty greasy and often molten hot coming out of the oven. I like to eat some of the crust to allow some airflow in the slice to cool it down. I also fold the slice "hot dog style" and tilt it to drain some of the grease. The cheese is always fresh and always delicious. The sauce is tasty and rich. The crust is thicker than most slices and very fluffly. Overall, I highly recommend Victor's to anyone looking to grab a quick and hearty bite to eat in Hillsborough. The slices are delicious and very filling.
