Acropolis Pizza, Arden, NC

While waiting for a flight at a hotel near the Asheville Regional Airport, Dave and I decided to look up a local option for pizza. We quickly found Acropolis and ordered for delivery. Even though it was an hour or so before they said they started delivery service, they accommodated our request and it actually arrived much earlier than we expected. This pizza might be the most cheese-forward Margherita variant I've ever had. Good thing it was a flavorful selection of cheeses. Nothing spectacular, but notably good: stringy with a very mild bite. It was also thicker than most Margherita-style pizzas I've had with a crust that tasted almost synthetic but in a good, hard but chewy breadstick-like way. The tomatoes were juicy and seemed fresh. They add pesto to their Margherita and it augmented things well without overpowering. We plowed through the pizza quickly -- very satisfying -- and highly recommended if you're in the Asheville Regional Airport area. Acropolis Pizza 140 Airport Rd Arden, NC 28704 828-684-5737
