    a dining room and kitchen
    Canny F.

    Small pizzeria that is only opened for dinner. The staff are super friendly! They have special pies for the day but the mister didn't want it so instead we ordered the foongee and margherita. He always prefers to order the plain in any restaurant to judge how good a restaurant is. It's a great idea but I love me some mushroom pies. I was pumped for the mushroom pie but left in disappointment. Maybe it was the type of cheese they used that sucked? Maybe the lack of truffle? Maybe the type of mushroom? No idea. The texture was perfect though. I loved the crust and dough. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the margherita more. It was quite perfect. The flavor was rich. The table time was decent. Portions were individual pies. They also offered me free dessert since I came here for my birthday but their dessert failed that day so that didn't happen. She told me she owed me dessert but I highly doubt she would remember. Overall, this satisfied my pizza craving and that is the most important aspect of eating out. There are additional seats in the back and plenty of parking in front of the pizzeria. Water is self serve in the back as well.

    Dino pizza without cheese!

    Great quality pizza! Visiting from out of town on a business trip my husband and I wanted pizza but…read moredo not like chain restaurants. We decided to try this place and awe are so glad we did. Our whole crew joined us and there was not a sour face in the bunch. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Garlic knots were so tasty. We both got a different 8 inch pizza because we couldn't agree on one. We narrowed it down to the Hawaiian with pepperoni and the Rocky Balboa. The 8 inch would have fed the two of us just fine with four large slices per pie, but as I said they had so many flavor combinations that we wanted to try we could narrow it down to one pizza. The pie did not disappoint. The crust was cooked to perfection, the sauce had great flavor, there were plenty of toppings. The staff were so friendly. The food came out fast. I literally have no complaints! We will be back!

    The pizza here is consistently fantastic, which is why we continue to come back. Unfortunately, the…read moreservice timing has become a recurring frustration for us. On several visits, we have specifically requested that our garlic cheese bread and salad arrive before the pizza so we can actually enjoy the appetizer and salad course first. Tonight, we again had a very clear conversation about this request, yet everything arrived in the exact opposite order. What was most frustrating was being told that "the pizza comes out when the pizza comes out," as though there is no ability for the front staff and kitchen to coordinate timing. In an open-concept restaurant where the order staff and kitchen are working side by side, it seems like simple communication could easily solve this issue. We truly enjoy the food and want this restaurant to succeed, but proper pacing of a meal is part of good dining service. Appetizers and salads should enhance the experience -- not arrive simultaneously with or after the main course. We hope management will take this constructively because the food deserves service that matches its quality

It was a beautiful day and…read morethey have a large outdoor seating area outside - large picnic tables - and booths and more picnic tables inside. Menus, silverware, napkins and plates are available on a table when you walk in and you order at the counter and pickup at another window. We ordered the massive slice of cheese and pepperoni ($3), cheese sticks ($7), small Caesar salad ($5),and green monster pizza! The order was ready extremely quickly and we dived in - everything was hot and fresh. Kids liked the huge slices of pizza - thin crust. The cheese sticks were amazing - big and fluffy - only about 6-7 in an order but would highly recommend. Pizza was delicious - pesto base with chicken, arugula, feta. We ordered the medium and the pizza was filling. A great stop if you have kids or are craving pizza - lots of different speciality pizzas or you can build your own.

It also offered a unique baked potato pizza, a combo of two of my favorite dishes. We also tried a pepperoni slice and a meat lovers. You really can't do bad pizza can you? This pizza had all the right combos. The crust was nice and chewy and not too thick. The sauce was tasty and was a proportional amount. There was a generous amount of toppings and everything was very flavorful. The baked potato pizza was a very interesting and tasty combination. I would absolutely recommend it and get it again. Overall this is a great pizza option and I will go back any time we're back in town.

Booths weren't comfortable. We ordered the garlic knots. They were really good. I ordered the two slices of cheese pizza. I wanted to get pepperoni but hearing the put toppings on already cooked cheese pizza.. not worth the price for subpar way to get pepperoni slices. There isn't enough time for the pepperoni to cook and yield it's flavor to the slices. Two cheese slices 5.49. Two topping slices 9.89. Almost double the price. Make that make sense. My spouse decided on the calzone because at least it was made fresh. It was pretty large and filled out the plate. Calzones were 10.99. The flavors and food was not that good to justify the prices. I get that it is a chain restaurant but the slices were what I would expect from a local gas station or grocery store. They definitely weren't nyc style in terms of flavor and uneven thick cheese. The cheese is clearly a blend of varieties. I don't think we will be back for the food. Neither options were hit out the park delicious and it's pricy for the actual value.

    Still the only local place we've found that truly comes close to Chicago pizza. We came in late…read moreafternoon on a Thursday with our family of five and waited quite awhile to be greeted at the counter. The space is cozy with about 4, 4-tops, a few outdoor tables, and a bar along the wall with stools in case you come in for a slice and soda deal at lunch time. We ordered breadsticks, a salad, a thin crust with pepperoni, and a stuffed pizza with sausage. They told us that we couldn't order the thin crust with half no cheese (for our lactose intolerant kiddo who still loves sauce, crust and toppings), as a heads up to anyone with similar dietary restrictions. This is due to the cook time being inconsistent for the cheese versus no cheese sides of the pie. We were asked if we were dining in or ordering to go. We opted to eat there since we live a decent distance away. Our breadsticks and house salad came out first, packed for transport and no plates or silverware were provided. They seemed confused and a bit annoyed when we asked for some. The breadsticks tasted like butter and parm doused funnel cake fries and the salad was fine...served its purpose but nothing special. Our thin crust came out next and was fresh and fabulous. My husband felt like it was a bit more overcooked than when we previously got it. Tons of cheese, slightly sweet sauce and crispy pepperoni. It is cut into squares. Lastly, our stuffed pizza came out. Again, no pie server given and we needed one desperately for the thick and gooey pizza. We waited awhile to get our requested pie utensil and then struggled to cut the pieces with our thin plasticware. The pizza was extremely fresh and tasty, however! If you are wondering what the difference is between the deep dish and stuffed, the stuffed is almost like a pizza sandwich. One pizza crust on bottom, toppings, and then another thin crust on top of those before spreading a thin layer of sauce. The crust is thicker than on a deep dish, too. I am sure that we will get pizza here again at some point, but never ever will we dine in. The trash was overflowing, every table wobbly and in need of cleaning, and unfortunately very uninviting service. They seemed quite miserable.
