Paul’s Rustic Oven

We just enjoyed Paul’s Rustic Oven at Track 7 Brewery in Sacramento and were very impressed! The pizza was delicious and the crust was perfectly charred for a wood fired cook. They accommodated happily for us vegetarians and Paul entertained everyone with his sense of humor! I would recommend the garlic pizza with spinach and onions. We’ll definitely keep them in mind for future catering needs!

I have had a couple recent opportunities to sample Paul’s Rustic Pizza Oven’s catering.
On the first opportunity I had I was very excited as I love to try new things. I knew it was pretty much my only opportunity unless I hired them myself and let’s be honest, who DOESN’T love pizza?! It looked so fresh and people kept leaving with these awesome looking pies.
I noticed the pizza crust had a lot of char but I know that comes along with a fire oven pizza and people told me they really enjoyed it despite the char. So I gave it a go! I got the Classic Margherita (Tomato sauce, Mozzarella and Fresh Basil) and I was happy to say my pie crust was great, browned but not charred. Yay! The pizza overall was okay, I was hoping for more, especially when I saw them brush butter over the crust. The dough, while definitely fresh, just tasted like it could use a little something extra. Actually, all the ingredients were pretty mild in flavor and there just wasn’t any signature taste to it. Price on this visit was $ 8.
On my next opportunity I got the Garlic Chicken & Spinach (Garlic Crema, Mozzarella, Spinach, Chicken, Onions). This time the price was $ 9. I had the same experience as before (it was okay) but the crust was pretty charred this time around and I ended having up to leave the burnt pieces behind. Kind of a waste… boo.
Overall, I like the idea of Paul’s Rustic Oven. It’s pretty unique to be able to have a fire oven brought to your event with a variety of topping choices. However, the finished product was average and didn’t leave me craving more.
