>bruh...that pizza has fucking LEAVES on it what the FUCK????
Yeah I don't get why those slightly more high end pizza restaurants always feel the need to have basil leaves or whatever the fuck they are all over the place. It's almost like their entire point is just to indicate in promotional images how they're a little more fancy than the Pizza Hut / Domino's tier of pizza restaurants, like wearing a gold watch to try to get people around you to recognize you're upper class.

It looks fine but it definitely doesn't seem like the best pizza ever made. If you guys have Uber Eats or Doordash on your phone you can open it up, pick the pizza filter, sort by high rating, and will probably be able to look around for a second or two and find multiple different higher end pizza places in your area with food images that look almost identical to that OP pic. It's just your standard "one tier above bottom tier fast food pizza" category restaurant.
For example pic related is a random similar looking higher end place in my area called Persona Wood Fired Pizzeria. I've never eaten from there before, but I'm pretty sure they would be a lot better than Domino's. It's the same generic "our pizza's fancy" look. Or this other very similar looking image here at the top of this article for some place called Cane Rosso:

It seems like the common feature in all these aside from appearance is the use of "wood-fired ovens." I have no idea what that means or why it would matter, but apparently you need one to make fancy pizza.
