Depalma’s Italian Cafe – Best Pizza in Tuscaloosa

The food is delicious. The employees are very friendly, the place is clean, and the pizza always hits the right spot. Our drinks were never empty. I had not been to Depalma’s in a really long time. I finally went back this weekend and quickly remembered why I used to go all the time. The food is delicious. The employees are very friendly, the place is clean, and the pizza always hits the right spot. Our drinks were never empty. We just ordered a regular cheese pizza with a few veggie toppings. I love the fact that there wasn’t too much cheese and the pizza crust was cooked really well.
For being in a college town they really do work with a students’ budget. The prices are pretty cheap for the food that they serve. If you haven’t been here I highly recommend it. Their portions are also really big, so you definitely will have leftovers as well. My favorite thing is that Depalma’s is only 2.5 miles away from University Downs, so I can just walk from my apartments to the restaurant.

Cookies + Brownies = Heavenly
Have you ever tried a Brownie Pillow Cookie? I’d never had one until I ran across the recipe for them on Bakerella. They are truly heavenly! If you love chewy cookies loaded with chocolate then you’ll enjoy making a batch of these. They’re chocolate chip cookies with a hidden surprise of brownie in the middle. Try them and let me know what you think.
