Chris turned 40 at the end of 2025, and I wanted to do something special without throwing a big party that he wouldn’t appreciate. So I gave him what I knew he’d appreciate the most: 40 slices of pizza!
Our fifth stop was: Ti Amo Wood Fired Pizza
515 W 2600 S, Bountiful, UT 84010
As far as pizza category goes, this place is more authentic Italian-style, but having had pizza in Italy, I can confirm this pizza is more flavorful. The crust was thin and light with an unmistakable wood-fired flavor. The crust was super floppy, but since it’s not trying to be New York–style, that felt fair. I did find myself wishing for a little more crisp on the bottom for structure.
We started with the focaccia, which was pretty impressive overall, though I wasn’t a fan of the crust. It was the same as the crust on the pizza – it just needs the cheese and sauce and toppings to give it some good flavor. The crust had the same somewhat funny smell that circulated the whole restaurant.
We had the kids share a regular cheese pizza as that was cheaper than getting two kids pizzas, and it made them both happy. No complaints from the little critics.
I ordered the plain pepperoni. It was greasy and delicious in the best possible way. It reminded me a bit of Chris’s pizza. My first bite brought one word to mind – incredible! I love when the oil pools just right. The sauce was especially good.
Chris went with salami, olives, and mushrooms and he quite enjoyed it. The pizza itself was very light. We ended up eating every bite of the three pizzas we shared – partly because it was so airy, and partly because we could tell immediately this wasn’t going to be good as leftovers. This is the kind of pizza you must enjoy fresh and hot from the oven.
Chris rated his pizza a 7.8!
