    Arrived here at 5pm for a hockey team dinner with about 5 families. Some had already ordered ahead of us and we ordered after. There were no other customers there but there were alot of carry out delivery orders. We ordered a large combination "Green River" pizza and a small Caesar salad. Took about 15 minutes for the salad to come out and 53 minutes for the pizza. The salad was good though there were some lettuce pieces that were not fresh that I had to pick out. The salad came with 2 small Caesar dressing containers. Pretty flavorful but on the saltier side. Needed alot of water after. The pizza is pretty thick and cheesey. Very fulfilling but so much cheese and toppings that it just fell off the slice. Good pizza with a crispy crunch. Definitely a family friendly restaurant with lots of games to play and tickets to win to trade in for prizes. At around 545pm, the restaurant picked up and got busy with a line of customers waiting to order. Not sure if I want to return next time as that's a long wait for a pizza. Service is average as we weren't checked on and tables weren't cleaned.

    Had an excellent family lunch at this restaurant. I was not expecting such a large restaurant from the outside. The arcade was the cherry on the top! My favorite part, surprisingly, was not the pizza, even though it was really good. It was the SALAD! We ordered the large dinner salad and it was one of the best salads I've ever had! The large could probably feed 6 people if you are ordering pizza as well. The person taking our order was very patient with my 15 questions. I am a ranch expert, and the ranch was delicious. We also ordered a large cheese pizza. It was quite good, but the salad was the star for our lunch. Would highly recommend trying this place out, especially the large dinner salad.

    Came here after our hike....clearly starving I didn't get a picture of the full pizza Ordered the Green River pizza, and it was sooo good. They were generous on the cheese and toppings! We orderes the XL that came with 12 slices and it was perfect for 4 adults! Sooo worth every penny!

    This was only my second visit here... and I'm glad to have waited to give a proper review. I was introduced to this pizza place because I go to Physical Therapy that's a couple doors down. My PT had bought us a pizza one Friday as I was one of the last patients for the day. I took a slice and ate it in my car. It was really good compared to the regular Pizza Hut or Dominos. I said to myself, I'll definitely go back for a full pie soon. This review is solely for the most recent visit today and for the level of service I received, or lack thereof. The first visit was awesome! The owner James introduced himself and took care of me. I told him it was my first time visiting and I'm coming from 20 minutes away in Chino Hills. All in all, customer service and experience was great! Excellent pizza! This second visit didn't go as well as the first. I ordered 2 white pizzas with pepperoni and bacon; one large and one medium. 20 minute wait I guess is average for two pies. But when I was finally called that my pizzas were ready, I advised the guy helping me that the pizza was for two different places. I bought one for me, and one for my PT as a thank you. I asked for two bags for condiments, 4 ranch in each bag with cheese and peppers. The guy said he could only give me 2. I told him the last time I was there, I only ordered one medium pizza and the owner gave me 4. He said he was the manager, his name is Robert and that he couldn't do that. It was against the rules. What?! I said fine, don't want to argue, please give me 2 ranch for each pizza. He said no. He could only give me 2 ranch in total. That was the rules. Robert then proceeded to let me know that if I had paid for each pizza separate, then he would've been able to give me 2 ranch each. Wth?! And he said it with that snark look that reads.. this is the bottom line and there's nothing you can say or do about it. So you're telling me if I ordered 10 pizzas on one check, I'm only getting 2 ranch? I'm actually saving the company money ordering in one check as each credit card swipe would cost them % of transaction plus base fee. I can't believe this is coming from the 'supposed' manager. Let me tell you, if Robert was managing my family's restaurant, I'd definitely have him retrained immediately. Or maybe I'd just get a new manager before my business runs down. There's no pizza out there that tastes so delicious that would offset the horrible customer service. Such a big turn off, especially for a mom and pop joint. Maybe he doesn't know, but having great customer service in a successful restaurant is just as important as having great tasting food. If you decide to come, make it easy on yourself and ask for the owner James. I'm sure he'll provide you the same excellent customer service he gave me. All front facing employees should have his same level of customer service, especially the 'manager'.

    We ended up at Big Al's Pizza for a lunch/birthday celebration. We ended up trying different kinds of pizzas, wings, and fountain drinks. I tried the Pepperoni and meat pizza, and the bell pepper and onion pizza. Our kids had the pepperoni pizza and the pepperoni and ham pizza. I also tried the buffalo wings. The pizzas were delicious, they were soft and very cheesy. The buffalo is saucy and cooked well. It was moist and juicy inside. I love the set up of the restaurant. You order up front and then find a table, but they also have little arcades inside so you can play before/after you eat, and our little ones were enjoying their time there. I wished the paw patrol game weren't out of order, we'll try again next time. They also have a candy crane game, which is a hit with toddlers. They have 2 coin dispensers to exchange your money for tokens, and if you get tickets after you play, feed that into the ticket counter, and then go up to the front to see what kind of price(s) you can get with your tickets. Overall we all had a great time, both adults and kids. The food was good, our company was good, and of course if the kids eat and are happy, we're happy. I'd definitely come back again! The staff we encountered were friendly and accommodating.

    Why does it say they close at 10 on yelp but i got turned away at 9?

    They have new hours due to COVID they close one hour earlier now

    Want to get hung up on-BY THE MANAGER- ask her about timing?!? My favorite response to the conversation on ETA is that "WE'RE NOT BUSY but it'll take 45- 1 hour"...what's wrong with this picture?

    That's because most mom and pop pizza joint will take about 45 minutes on a normal day to deliver your pizza. A busy time ETA for mom and pop joints is closer to and over an hour. They don't operate like fast food places like Domino's and Pizza Hut…

Also, I read a couple of reviews that complained that not all menu items were available. Our waiter explained that when they sometimes run out of things, it's because they are a small restaurant. To start our meal, we ordered the Bresaola which was outstanding. For our main course we ordered the Lobster Ravioli and the Chicken Marsala. The Lobster Ravioli was served with a cream sauce and a lot of flavor. The Chicken Marsala was without a doubt the best I've ever tasted and was served a vegetable medley. Service was attentive but also a little slow at times. Some of the slowness may have been caused by the kitchen being very busy. The restaurant is noisy and busy. If possible make a reservation or you may have to wait for a table.

Not sure it was a Waze thing or any other map applications have had the similar experiences. But if you use Waze just know it's very hidden next to the AMC theaters. Ambiance is very nice. I guess a lucky for us we went around 3pm because I have heard that there is a wait. But inside it very nice but not very big. I did notice that they only use scannable menus. But just know the menu does change and not sure how often. We did not that the owner or he appeared to be the owner was actively interacting with the patrons. Seemed pretty cool but not sure why we were the last he did come to while seated. But when he did it was very very short unlike the others. Another patron interrupted our conversation and the owner rudely left in the middle of the conversation and never returned. But guess the guy is busy. Service was pretty good and the suggestions were welcomed. We definitely had no problems getting water refilled. We were surprised that they charge for bread service $5. But it was good for 5 small pieces. Two of us had the bolognese and it was just okay. It was definitely not worth the $28 though... very pricey for some pasta and meat sauce they did lack something. And the portion size definitely did not match the price. Although, the short rib ravioli was very delicious and it was $27. However, we were disappointed in the options in the menu. Definitely not what we expected. The thing is with a menu that changes you don't know what to expect the next time and I'm not so sure I personally like that. Maybe if it's posted online ahead of time maybe. After all the hype I can say I am not really impressed but to each their own. I just really think that the menu is very overpriced and especially for the portion size. After our very short talk with the owner sounded as though they do not offer pesto dishes. I can remember several Italian restaurants that I crave and can't wait to visit again and this one isn't one of those.
