I was looking for a new pizza place to try when I found Tennessy Williems in my research. I was very hyped according to the reviews and different websites, describing it as one if not the best pizza in Ottawa. The review on the Mac N’ Cheese also hyped me up.
I arrived at the opening for a takeout order. The place looks cozy and charming. The lady that took my order was smiling and courteous. I ordered two pizzas and the famous Mac N’ Cheese. I waited 25 minutes, which seems acceptable, even though I was the second customer to order.
Mac N’ Cheese (2/10) : For 25$, my expectations were high and were not met at all. The pastas were soggy and there was a clear lack of seasoning. I suspect it was an old batch. The portion was fairly small too. The biggest problem was the three beard hairs and the one long hair spread in different spots of the meal.
Pizza Margherita (5/10) : The pizza was more floppy and less crusty than I expected but the main problem was the ton of parmesan overpowering the rest.
Pizza Sopressata (8/10, 9/10 with the Hot Honey) : The toppings were great but a little too floppy.
Creamy Garlic Dill Dip (9/10) : The dip was flavorful.
Total cost with tips : 98$. It’s definitely not worth it. It was nice for once, to try something different, but I would not recommend it.
