My husband and I came from Chicago to take care of our friends' dog while they're away. We take our…read morepet-sitting duties very seriously--feeding, walking, belly rubbing--so naturally, we needed to fuel up for the task. Now, we have an unspoken (but strictly enforced) vacation rule: no cooking. If we so much as touch a stove while away from home, the vacation gods might revoke our travel privileges. So, out we went in search of a good meal. With plenty of choices around, one spot immediately caught our attention--and my Argentinian heart skipped a beat. Dinner was an absolute delight! The restaurant is small and cozy, and we managed to snag the last table (cue victory dance). We shared three empanadas, Fugazzeta, and a salad--all delicious. But let's talk about the Fugazzeta, shall we? For those unfamiliar, Fugazzeta is a glorious, cheese-stuffed pizza from Argentina. Picture an avalanche of gooey cheese sandwiched between two layers of dough, crowned with caramelized onions. It's a masterpiece. I have been in the U.S. since 1978, and I had yet to find Fugazzeta here--until now! The moment I saw it on the menu, I knew it was destiny. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint. Cheesy? Oh yes. Borderline illegal amounts of cheese? Possibly. Crispy crust on the edges, soft and pillowy everywhere else--pure perfection. The empanadas? Excellent. Paired wonderfully with a glass of Malbec. Service was warm, friendly, and welcoming--just the cherry on top of an already great meal. Now, my friend has been trying to convince us to move to Inverness for a while. And well... this place might just tip the scales.

I was excited to try the brick oven pizza here, but unfortunately it didn't quite live up to my…read moreexpectations. My pizza came out with burnt edges, and overall I felt it was only slightly better than the Tony's frozen pizza brand I've had from the grocery store. The atmosphere was also not what I expected for a pizza outing. This is more of a cafeteria-style setup where you order at the counter rather than having table service. If you're looking for a casual quick meal, that may be fine, but it didn't have the cozy pizza restaurant feel I was hoping for. Also, don't come expecting to enjoy a glass of wine or a beer with your pizza -- there is no alcohol available. The drink selection is limited to bottled non-alcoholic options and fountain drinks. I appreciate the concept of brick oven pizza, but based on my experience, I was expecting more in terms of flavor, atmosphere, and overall experience.

Went here for a birthday treat today and enjoyed my lunch so much that I just had to review. We…read morewere greeted and seated immediately, and served hot home made bread, it was so good. My sister got pasta with a hearty meat sauce and lots of cheese. I started with these pepperoni pin wheels, so yummy and I had the steak sandwich with peppers & onions, the roll was nice and toasted not soggy like some other places the peppers and onions were cooked perfectly and they didn't skimp on the steak. I got a complimentary cannoli for my birthday plus we had the Spumoni that was good also. I have had take out pizza from here which is the finest I have had This is a lovely , quiet and comfortable environment we loved the ambiance of it all. The server was excellent and the owner even came by and said hello. Try this place you will be glad you did.

Wow, what an experience... and not in a good way…read more I believe the place is called Stinky Rose or Mariana's--either way, I won't be back. To start with the positives: our server was kind, attentive, and clearly trying his best. The pizza itself was actually pretty good--I'd give it an 8/10. Unfortunately, everything else completely missed the mark. A spider literally ran across a slice of pizza at our table (this wasn't even a full pie--just a $4 slice). When we asked to speak with a manager, the owner came over and immediately acted like we were making it up. There was no apology, no concern, and no effort to make the situation right. She simply said, "oh... really, okay," picked up the plate, and walked away. There was no follow-up or resolution, and we were later brought a bill that still included the slice. We even tried to locate the spider to show we weren't lying--that's how dismissive the interaction felt. When I asked the owner whether she intended to still charge for the slice she had taken, she responded while walking away, "Do you want that or it taken off?" The tone and attitude were dismissive and unprofessional. At that point, it wasn't even about the slice--it was the complete lack of basic customer service. Had the situation been handled with even minimal professionalism, we likely would have paid and left without issue. On top of that, the seafood linguini was disappointing--no flavor, no garlic, very small portions of seafood that tasted frozen, and empty clam shells. Overall: * Pizza: good * Server: great * Owner: very poor experience * Food (outside of pizza): disappointing The rest of the staff was friendly, and it seems like this place has potential. We had heard good things about the pizza and made the drive to try it, which makes the experience even more disappointing. With some improvements--especially in how issues are handled--it could be a much better experience. I would not return and will be choosing other Italian options moving forward.

We'd been wanting to try here for a year if not more…read more My calzone with mushrooms and sausage was pretty good. They gave ample marinara sauce to dip in. My husband's pizza was another story It was the butcher block. It had 3 meats and supposedly double cheese. The top barely had any cheese at all. When I asked the server she said they put the other cheese under the meats (on the bottom). The problem with this is while I did see cheese under the meats there was NO SAUCE on this pizza at all except close to the top of the piece by the top thick crust. Did I mention no sauce?? It was clean but took about 15 mins for one server to bring us a menu and another 15 to have a server come take our order We like sauce on our pizza & again this had none. The "double" cheese was non existent also No return

On my way I had past two other YELP! destinations but they had people waiting and no bar area. Burger places. I was so relieved to see it was not very busy time, 1:30. I believe this is more of a dinner venue than pizza joint. I saw they had slices ready for service so two were on my list and a bud light. I did sit at the bar thought there would be someone tending it but it was too early for that. While waiting for the slices I had a chance to take everything in and it is a really nice layout. Slices arrived and didn't disappoint, thin and crispy and the most tasty sauce. Even the crust had a special something I'm not sure it was. Over all the pie there is worth the trip. If in the area and needing a few quick slices, this is the spot. Give them try, peace.
