Mozzarella Sticks Queen

 Tony’s Pizzeria Mozzarella Sticks-- 3/10 crowns  The breading: The breading on these was so sparse I could actually see the white of the cheese through it. Personally, I do not really like floppy mozzarella sticks so these did not hit the mark. The cheese: The ratio on these was mostly cheese and I just don’t think it did them any favors. The cheese was bland, but the mozzarella sticks overall were bearable when warm. The sauce: The sauce for these was ok! A little chunky and noticeably acidic, but I think it was a good addition to the plate! Overall, I would not repurchase these. I spent $8.95 on FIVE mozzarella sticks and though they were larger than average, they were not good enough to justify the cost. Also, when they were cooled to a room temperature, they were so floppy and bad that I did not even bother to finish what was left in the tin.

 Benny’s Pizza Mozzarella Sticks-- 7/10 crowns This experience was my first time eating at this place. I can honestly say that I will be returning customer! The Breading: so the breading for me was very crunchy and very crispy, which was a plus for me. Always a sucker for the breaded coating! I definitely appreciate that they stayed warm on the DoorDash trip to my house.  The cheese: While there was no cheese pull for this particular mozzarella stick. I still have to give kudos where it’s due instead of this being a bland, flavorless cheese, I feel like the cheese flavor enhanced the overall experience that I had. The sauce: Though the sauce was probably the weakest part of this entire experience, I still liked the flavor, and I don’t think that it detracted from these mozzarella sticks. Overall, $8.95 for eight mozzarella sticks in this economy is pretty good especially when the mozzarella sticks themselves are good. I will be returning here.

Sunshine Deli Mozzarella Sticks 5/10 crowns  I feel like these were very mid. They were good enough, but the price detracts from my score. The breading: Even though it’s orange-y in color, the breaded coating is solid. It’s a bit crumbly, so when you bite into it, expect some breading to fall off. The cheese: I got these delivered, and they were still hot by the time they got to me, and I got to experience some minor cheese pulls! Once again, a solid part of the experience. The sauce: Unquestionably the weakest part of the experience. The sauce felt bland and it was clear that this is not the reason why you go to this eatery. Not awful, but wouldn’t try again.  Overall, $8.79 for six mozzarella sticks feels like highway robbery! Worth the try, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to have these.

Buffalo Wild Wings' Mozzarella Sticks- 7/10 crowns  I got these mozzarella sticks as part of the “Endless Apps” deal, in which you pay $10 and order bottomless apps (choose from 5), two platters at a time. My friends and I ordered three times, and got five platters of mozzarella sticks.   The breading: The breading was super crunchy and had a nice taste! These were served fresh, which allowed the breadcrumb coating to shine.   The cheese: The cheese actually had a nice flavor AND I got several cheese pulls, even when they had been on the table for a few minutes. No complaints here! The sauce: The marinara was a great addition to these mozzarella sticks and I thoroughly enjoyed it, despite it slightly reminding me of Burger King marinara. My friends and I also got the caramel sauce (not pictured) which we normally get with the cheese curds to see if the sauce is a “one hit wonder”. It definitely isn’t!!! We got two cups of caramel sauce and it only enhanced t...

Burger King's Mozzarella Fries- 4 crowns Hello, dear readers. Thank you for coming back to visit my blog after a long hiatus. I've been busy lately, but believe me, I have never forgotten about the duty I have to my loyal and trusted readers. I'm here, I'm back, and I'm ready to review.  I first reviewed Burger King's attempt at mozzarella sticks almost six years ago, and they did not meet my standards, or anything nearly close to them. I thought that when they retired these, we were safe, but Burger King has reared its ugly head, and is back, now marketing them as "fries". I do not understand why BK feels the need to market everything they have as a "fry" (chicken fries, mozzarella fries, actual fries). Is that their lane? It's not a good one.  The breading: So at first I was a little surprised because these definitely looked more fry-shaped than their previous attempt. Overall, the mozzarella stick itself was thinner and smaller. The br...

 Hard Rock AC's Fried Risotto-Mozzarella Sticks- 4 crowns Wanting to indulge in a special treat while I was away in Atlantic City, I decided to order room service and obviously had to try the mozzarella sticks. For a huge hotel with multiple fine-dining eateries and a stacked food court, this was surprisingly the only place on the hotel property where you can find mozzarella sticks. That is very   disappointing, considering there's so many options for munchies, and I feel like mozz is an easy sell.  The breading: The breading was actually one of my favorite parts of this mess. Even though the food had to travel from the kitchen and up fourteen floors to my hotel room, the breadcrumbs stayed warm and crunchy. The mozzarella sticks were also covered in chopped scallions, which was a unique yet tasteful choice.  The cheese: This is where these lost me. The cheese has a consistency that was similar to a fish stick (my mom compared it to a rice ball). The flavor was very ...
