I will start with the food. The pizzas are unique and fun. They let you do half and half so you can try all kinds of different types. Great selection for vegetarians. The apps that we have tried have been really good. I haven't had their sandwiches, but they sure have looked yummy. My personal favorite pizza is the Rockefeller or the Amalfi Coast, although the mushroom has been good too! Personally we prefer the white sauce pizzas over the red sauce because the red sauce is just too sweet for our taste. The crust is right on, light and thin. I have a hard time saying anything too negative about their food.
The ambiance is bar-like. It can be loud, loud, loud. You get paper over the table and are provided crayons which can be a ton of fun. Kind of a Fargo hipster feel to it. The drinks are good and the beer selection is one of the better ones in town.
Now for the part that really hurts this place: the service. We have had decent service there before, however not one time has it been great. It is usually just mediocre. Other times, it was CRAZY bad. Once when it was just myself and my husband, the bartender and our server were obviously having a disagreement and the bartender wasn't making our drinks for us. We ordered drinks right when we sat down, ordered food after 10 minutes because our server apologized for not having the drinks yet, then later our food came: STILL with no drinks. The stoner looking bartender and the server literally were arguing.
Now they deliver. I had been talking their pizza up at work. So the weekend before Christmas, a few people at work were going to order a few pizzas and try a few different types. It was kind of a treat for everyone since they are a bit more expensive than other places. I work night shift at a hospital. I called at 10PM to confirm they deliver this far south and how late they deliver. "Our kitchen is open until midnight." Well, we had get our order together and things go wrong at a hospital so, I called back at 11:05PM from the hospital number. It went to the fax machine. I called back every 5 minutes for 30 minutes and they all went to the fax machine. At 11:35PM, I decided to try a new technique. I called on my cell phone. They answered. This is how the conversation went:
"Hi. I'd like to order for delivery."
"Sure, can I get a number?"
"701-###-####."
"And an address?"
" It's THE NAME OF THE HOSPITAL so it is: 1234 South whatever Street."
"Oh, I am sorry. We only deliver until 11PM."
Take what you want from that. I can't prove they were screening the phone numbers purposefully. I can't prove that they didn't want to deliver to us because they were afraid it would have been a big order that late. However, it sure seems fishy. They lost about 6 customers that night who order pizza at least once a month on our weekends we work. Someday the newness of this place will catch up to them and their business will suffer because of stupid stuff like this. read more
