    a slice of pizza and a salad
    Mike M.

    11/10 Great pizza, great prices, and an even better staff. Never had a problem here, great place to stop in for a quick, high quality meal! WARNING: BBQ chicken pizza has onions on it, just ask for them to be removed, they are unholy

    This place is surprisingly great! We ordered pizza to enjoy on crystal lake and it was great. Many different options, thin crust, crispy and delicious. I've had great sandwiches at the deli too... always consistently great! We will keep coming back!

    Stopped here tonight on our way home from voting! We're new to the area and I wanted to give a local spot a try. We were pleased. We both got the chicken bacon ranch grinder - advertised as chicken cutlet, ranch, bacon, American cheese, lettuce, tomato. Be forewarned it's not a chicken cutlet as you would traditionally think .... it's not fried, it's more like grilled chicken. But it was good and we enjoyed. We also tried a side of their potato salad. It was good - very tangy, seemed like a lot of vinegar or something in it so definitely wouldn't be for everyone but we enjoyed it. We also of course purchased ice cream. They probably had about 20 flavors and they all looked so good. We tried the fried apple pie and the Reese's! Yum. Very friendly staff and cute spot. Pizza smelled AMAZING so we will definitely go back to try that! Also have convenience store items and pantry staples available for purchase which is very nice!

    Thank you for an amazing Italian Grinder!! We're glad we stopped in and we'll definitely be back!!

    Notice how grilled chicken is a depends search.

    Friendly staff but confusing menu. If you dont have a fryer its grilled chicken bro, not cutlet.

    Genoa Grinder and delicious chips for dinner!

    Decent ravioli, not the best dine in experience…read more Came here as a lunch option for the area. The inside is well decorated and there was a lot of coolers with pasta and raviolis. We went to the front and ordered the butternut squash ravioli in butter sauce and their lobster roll special. Food came out in a reasonable timeframe, we perused the oils and vinegars while we waited. The lobster roll was a flop. Dry lobster on top of lettuce barely warmed on a non toasted hot dog bun. It's a ravioli shop, so I didn't have high expectations, but figured they have worked with lobster before so I had higher hopes The ravioli we got were also a pretty big flop. Raw uncooked pasta in broken butter sauce and no seasoning. The butternut squash filling was puréed to heck and reminded me of frozen butternut squash sides you buy from the grocery store. Not bad, but lacking. The fries and onion rings were good. Bagged but good quality, the highlight of our meal. The staff were friendly, and the space was small but cozy. I highly suspect the faults of the kitchen are mainly due to them not having dine in orders frequently. I would stick with the prepared pastas and make whatever you buy at home.

My favorite and everyone's were the manicottis, they were delicious. The gluten free chicken Parmesan was delicious as well as the gluten free penne. The gluten free shrimp were ok. I and one other liked them 4 others did not. They had a gluten free stuffing which was too heavy on the shrimp which were flattened for some reason. It took away the succulence of the shrimp and the gluten free stuffing needs some seasonings and not so much of it. The gluten free orange Italian cookies were fantastic! I loved them and so did most everyone. All in all they did a very good job and most of the fishes were great. I highly recommend them and would order gluten free itslian from them again especially those orange itslian cookies! Amazing!

    Tried again, way too pricy for what you get…read more Been to way too many breakfast spots, so much so that I've run out of local spots to try. So decided to give another go to some places that need another try. The space inside is decorated well, it's very homey and plenty of tables. The server was very nice and had recommendations when asked. I opted for the raspberry beignets and the bananas foster French toast. Food came out quickly, and I took my pics and dug in. The raspberry beignets were pretty much donut holes covered in raspberry and vanilla sauce. The raspberry filling was there, but wasn't very pronounced. For 3 bucks a beignets, it's very expensive. But it was sweet enough and fried fresh. The observant will note that the French toast looks a lot like pancakes. They specify on the menu that you can choose either, but either I was never asked which I wanted or I failed to advocate for my preference. I decided to roll with it, since it could be a mistake from either end. Pancake batter was overworked, bananas were slightly warmed up but done so on the griddle. Picked up the onion funk from their home fries, leading to a rather unpleasant bite. Quality issues can be overlooked if the price is reasonable. For 28 dollars for two dishes, the price is way too high for what I got. As a local breakfast spot, there's not many around that area. If you need breakfast and are unwilling to drive another 5-10 minutes for other options, the food is okay and portions are reasonable. It's pricy, stick to the savory, and don't expect more than the basics.

    Good delivery pizza with a couple unique twists that make it great…read more I've been looking at some pizza places and saw this one was reasonably reviewed. So decided to come here and get a pie. When I get here, theres no parking in the front. I found quickly that there's a barren pavilion right next to it to the left of the light. Has a laundromat and a disc golf place. Walking in, place is a very generic front end. Lots of scarface and godfather posters and such. Menu is very generic, but they boast giant pizzas. The expediter is a sultry sort, very focused on speed and accuracy. And this place is busy. Most the people there were delivery drivers and there's lots of cross chatter between everyone to ensure everything is done right. I decided to get a specialty pie, the chicken bacon ranch but got it as a small. Pizza came out in 10 minutes, I took the pie to the car, took pics, and waited another 10 to give the pizza time to cool. The first impression was that they fermented the dough. Like a sourdough, there's a chewy tang that you get with each bite. It's unexpected, but surprisingly welcome. The pizza was sloppy with sauce, but the crust was fully cooked. The toppings were not too sparse, everything was in decect portions. Speaking of portions, the price was a little higher but the size is quite large. 14 inches for their small, which is a lot of pizza. Price was $20, but you get a lot. They also have lots of different sizes, from a personal 10 inch to a massive party sized pie. Dining in, it's not worth it. Delivery, it's a great option for the money. Get it delivered, and you'll be all good.

    For the past 4+ years this is my go to grocery store. I think I should count as a very loyal and…read morevaluable costumer; four years ago I was spending around $1500 per month here and in this recent half year, due to inflation, I spend around $2000 per month. Unfortunately, one employee does not treat me with respect (although several others are great). A thin older woman sometimes supervises the self-checkout. I've never found her to be nice, but that isn't the issue. The problem is that in the recent 6 months, she has multiple times asked me questions like she suspects me of shoplifting. It started when one time she saw me buying heirloom tomatoes (which have different colors like red and orangish yellow). She asked me if I put different produce in the same bag; I guess as if I was trying to purchase oranges at a tomatoe's price? I told her no. She said okay, but she clearly didn't believe it. FYI these tomatoes are one of the most expensive they carry, at around $4.5/lb. It wouldn't even make sense to mix them with other produce like oranges. One month later, she saw me buy the same heirloom tomatoes again. She came to me, asked me the same question again, and commented something like "I have never seen orange colored tomatoes." This time, I explained to her, that they are heirloom tomatoes and come with different colors. Recently, I bought two bags of green grapes (same brand) and weighed them together. She came over and asked me if I weighed both of them, since she only saw one itemized green grape. The implication being that I tried to sneak/steal one bag. This is beyond ridiculous. I can't take it any more. I am so done with this store and will never go back again. I do want to mention that the woman Alex who works at the fish stand has been very nice to me and very helpful. She is the reason I put up with the checkout woman for a few more months. However, I cannot take it any more.

    If I could give no stars I would. I order a pizza. They tell me it will be ready in half an hour…read more The guy who takes the order even asks the other guy making pizza's how long it will take. So I go down to pick it up.....they said they didn't have an order....so im like no I called it in. A cheese pizza....then I said..... maybe I called the other big y by mistake but didn't have my phone to double check.....the guy who took the order sounded like the person on the phone i spoke to. So when I finally got home and checked the number.....it WAS the Ellington Big Y. So because they were behind they said there wasn't an order put in for the pizza. I'm so tired of this place. When you order a pizza you expect it to be ready when you get there....so I had to wait an additional 20 minutes while people waited to eat for this pizza I ordered. I finally put this in yelp because I have had other issues with customer service here as well....and it's basically very rude individuals who don't want to do their job. The last time I called their seafood department and they told me to HURRY UP AND GET THERE BEFORE THEY CLOSED. Otherwise I would be OUT OF LUCK to get my seafood cooked. Why do they bother to have departments cook or make food if people have to experience this GARBAGE? FROM NOW ON I WILL HAPPILY GO TO ANOTHER TOWN IF I NEED THEOR SERVICES! BUYER BEWARE!
