Bohemian Pizza and Ditto's Bar is a strange place. There's no denying it. It's a cross between a gourmet pizzeria and the Cantina from Mos Eisley Spaceport. But, I am not reviewing the eclectic bar scene. I'm here to talk about the pizza.
Bohemian is not your standard pizzeria. It's much better than that. But, don't expect to go in there and order a classic napolitana margherita. You won't find anything resembling New York or New Haven style pizza. What you will discover is an opportunity to explore flavor, which is what Bohemian is known for throughout Litchfield County.
Whether is be the sausage, roasted garlic, goat cheese or anchovies, Bohemian Pizza is a stroll through a flavorful, gourmet topping pizza experience. Owner Jason McKenzie has mastered the art of combining high-quality ingredients, herbs and spices. I've really never had a bad pie there. It's consistently good.
The crust is typical of what you would expect from Litchfield County. More of a tasty container for the toppings rather than I piece of freshly baked Italian bread. However, very few pizzerias in Northwest Connecticut have truly mastered the art of the crust. The tomato sauce packs a lot of flavor as well. No bells and whistles, but just a tasty base for the toppings.
Bottom line ... try this place out. Walk in, say hello to Greedo and Hammerhead at the bar and order one of Jason's specialty pies. You'll be impressed and be coming back for more.
