    Best pizza in town this is the I.G.Gold Mine come and try it guaranteed to be a winner come support local business. Ivan rocks this place so delicious and they have Kabru beer and Double Goat from Amador brewing Co. Gotta try them or your missing out!!

    Chicken leg drum wings were delicious

    Great savory pizza and wings! The drum stick were delicious and falling off the bone! Tasty! The salad was ok because I really don't like tomatoes on my Caesar salad, and the dressing wasn't as good as I would like it to be, but it was OK. Service was great and cook was awesome! We will return

    Not Wings. Buffalo Drumsticks! And why they were $15.50
    Eloy G.

    Stopped by to try this pizza and pick it up as we reviewed Yelp and there was so many positive reviews, so we had to try it. So my first impression is that this pizza has some great flavor and well made and the crust was excellent. I guess I didn't read but these aren't wings, they are actual drumsticks and why they cost $15.50 for 7 drumsticks. Wow! Overall they had good flavor as well. The customer was excellent despite us showing up 45 minutes before they closed. They lady and gentleman making the pizza was nice and treated us well. Overall the ambiance is small town pizza joint with excellent service and overall good pizza. The only negative I would say was the prices. Look I don't mind paying for something of quality, but I also think the price should be of equal value to the taste and quality. I have travelled across the US and tasted some great pizza but I don't know they're too many at this price. We got a medium with pepperoni and mushroom and the small Caesar salad and the drumsticks and it was over $51.00 of which the pizza was $25.00 for 1 medium pizza. Overall, I would buy the pizza again, but would have to be when I want something different that my typical go to pizza joints. There are equally good pizza places for lesser costs and reason for my 4 stars. It is good pizza but I somewhat think twice paying over $25.00 just for one medium pizza. If price is not a concern for you definitely a great choice for pizza!

    $34 dollars for this 3 item basic pizza. The profile shows a $ it should be $$$. Here's the picture.

    I don't write reviews often, but this place absolutely earned it…read more If you're anywhere near El Dorado, you need to stop at Pizza NLRcia. The food is outstanding, but what really sets them apart is the level of service. Honestly some of the best I have experienced anywhere. I walked in about 20 minutes before closing, which most places would not be thrilled about, and they welcomed me without hesitation. No attitude, no rushing, just genuine hospitality. While I was waiting for my pizza, someone, possibly the owner, came over and told me they had accidentally dropped my pizza in the oven and it did not look great. He said there was nothing wrong with it, but because of how it looked, they were going to give it to me for free on top of the new pizza they were making. That alone says everything about their standards and integrity. It did not stop there. I had also grabbed the last piece of tiramisu, and before I left, he handed me a coupon for a free tiramisu next time. That is not normal service. That is above and beyond. The pizza itself was incredible. Unique combinations, bold flavors, and clearly made with care. The tiramisu was just as good. Rich, balanced, and the perfect finish. This place is the real deal. Great people, amazing food, and a level of customer service you just do not see anymore. Must stop if you are passing through El Dorado.

    Ok, so I left a review several months back about how Pizza Norcia makes THE best gluten-free pizza…read moreanywhere. Well, after going there almost every week since November, I've got an even better one. I don't have celiac, but am very gluten intolerant. After going there (a lot) the manager talked to me about how because their dough is from Italy (cleaner ingredients) and partially fermented from the sourdough starter, he's had people who couldn't eat gluten, eat the "regular" dough without a problem. The next time we went in we got 1 gluten-free and 1 regular. I ate my gf one but took a bite of the other (if you suffer you know it doesn't take more than a bite)...and nothing, no reaction, I was fine. So we order 2 regular pizzas the next time. I freaking almost cried. I ate the whole dang thing because it was the first time I've had "regular" bread/dough in 17ish years. I love the people, I love the food, and I will never quit this place.

We came across three female lobsters with eggs, and although some people consider it lucky, it honestly didn't sit well with me. From what I understand, egg-bearing lobsters are typically supposed to be released, so it made me worry about long-term sustainability and potential shortages. Other than that, the experience itself was enjoyable. We requested a table with a view and got to watch the sunset while eating, which made the dinner feel extra nice. The prime rib was definitely my favorite. The crab was juicy and fresh, sushi was just okay, but the poke was surprisingly flavorful. I skipped dessert, but my boyfriend said that ended up being his favorite part of the night. I'd still come back again, but I really hope they become more mindful about the lobster situation.

Inside casino with a lot parking 3. $59 isn't too bad 4. Customer service was good during our visit Cons: 1. Lobster hit and miss sometimes, sometimes good, sometimes chewy and sometimes too salty. Also you can only get 1 at a time which we think is very inconvenient. 2. $59/person includes drinks, not too bad if the food is good, otherwise kinda waste money 3. I love steak but it is way too dry, hard and overcooked. Not moist and tender like many yrs before 4. Crab legs are also hit and miss just like the lobsters 5. Only given 90 minutes, not enough time to eat and relax. I think 2hrs is more reasonable or no time limit like back then at other buffets before Overall, decent buffet, I would give a higher rating if the cons above are improved. Hope this helps!
