Picked up a two-fer: mini-calzone & salad, yum!! Never disappoints! Service fast & right on time! read more

Easy online ordering, easy pick up and timely service. We shared the Skinny V and it was delish. Paired it with side salads we made at home ; just the right amount of food. The spicy red sauce was delish too. read more

Decent Calzones. I think Dewey's Calzones are better, in my opinion. Staff is friendly, interior is clean. Calzones are a bit doughy and toppings could be improved (white onion should be diced, not large chunks). Not bad though. read more

The calzone was amazing!! Very friendly staff and it was early when they ppened but price was reasonable, perfect lunch!! Music was good , not too loud! read more

The restaurant was quiet when we came in. We were served by a friendly young man. My husband and I split the best seller, Meat me in St. Louis. My husband liked his calzone. I would call mine average. The dipping sauce was too spicy hot for my taste, my spouse denied that it was spicy. I plan to go back to this place and have a custom calzone with anchovies and olives. There were multiple other toppings for calzone. There is plenty of parking. read more

It was Saturday around 6:16 PM during the dinner rush, so they were understandably busy. I chose curbside pickup because of a knee injury--otherwise, I would have ordered delivery from somewhere else. When I arrived, one curbside spot was occupied with another customer, and the other was taken by the EMPTY sauce on the side company car. If you're familiar with this location, you know the lot gets packed every weekend, especially at dinner time. The last thing anyone wants--especially while injured--is to hop across a crowded parking lot and back just to get their food. read more

Ordered online through their website. It was an easy and quick process. They had the food prepared in the quoted 15 minutes. Fairly large space with lots of tables. Wasn't busy at 6 on a Thursday. Ordered: - Fatty B (4/5): Tasty calzone with pepperoni and meatballs. A bit much ricotta for my personal preference - I may adjust next time. - Bullseye (4.25/5): Excellent flavor combos. Preferred red sauce over the French onion sauce, although the French sauce was very complementary. It just seamed a bit heavy. read more

Calzone? Calz-many! I've been excited for this restaurant ever since it was announced it was opening a new location in twin oaks. The place has a great rewards program that you're going to want to sign up for because you will be back again and again. They offer a calzone of the month, that keeps the menu fresh, but I keep finding my way back to the Pancho Villa if I'm in the mood for some great, or the Meat Me in St. Louie if I'm looking for something traditional. They also offer a Mac and cheese calzone for the kids (or adults - no shame) or a build-your-own-pie where you can just get cheese or pepperoni. The workers are quick and nice, and there is a good variety of local beers on draft, as well. Have no fear when coming here, it is always clean and the music is not overpowering and the food is reliably delicious: the Calzones will not betray you. read more

Really really good. The calzones are fun but all make sense. The dipping sauces were on point and the bites were delish. They are doing it right. read more

Great Calzones and Salads! Nice place to grab a meal to take home or eat in. Decent beer choices as well. read more

We came here for their outside patio with friends last week. Their menu only includes calzones and salads. Would've loved to have a soup to go with the calzone! The calzones are HUGE and big enough for 1 and a half adults. We over-ordered and took the leftovers home. We tried the Carmen, Costanzo, and Don Corlazone (a seasonal menu item). There's about 3 outdoor long tables with plenty of chairs out on their patio which is nice for COVID-era social distancing. The Carmen had prosciutto,spinach, parm, fontina, ricotta, with garlic butter sauce on the side. The Costanza was my favorite; the eggplant added an interesting flavor and texture. Costanza also has roasted garlic, mozzarella, basil, ricotta, brushed with garlic honey oil on top. The honey oil was a little too sweet for me. I liked the red marinara sauce that came with the Costanza, but the sauces that accompanied the other 2 calzones didn't add much and I didn't end up using them. read more

What a great place. I called to place our order and the person who answered the phone was friendly and attentive. They got our order right. When I picked it up, they were efficient. The calzones were yummy. I had the Five-O, and I really liked it. The dough was fully cooked and fresh! The Caesar Salad was awesome. We will be ordering here again! read more

We are always happy with our food choices. Love the variety of calzones and accompanying sauces. Large enough to share, but leftovers are good - especially in the air fryer. Casual eat in environment. Food comes pretty quickly. We just had a great takeout experience also. Food was ready quickly and held up well till we got home to eat. read more

OK.. Confession. I have been back there 3 times since I have started this review (saving drafts) so I obviously must like this place. I do. The calzones have all been good and tasty - been able to make 2 meals out of them. And they have a good selection of beer both can and draft. My other half even found a wine she likes. I have had the Meat Me in St Louis (needed the pepperoines scattered a it more); Which Came First (sans Jalapenos); and a Costanza. Each time the calzones were better. I think the cooks are getting the timing and ingredient temps down now that they have been open a few weeks. The staff is always friendly, the tables are bussed quickly, and there is never really a long wait from ordering to getting the food. I am more than sure I will be back again as there are still more Calzones for me to try. I am very glad they are in my neighborhood! read more

Stopped in for a late dinner last night and about six visits prior since opening. Perfect calzones My sons loves the roasty toasty I build my own Great customer service Great food Convenient location and parking Made to order fast but not fast food. read more

This is fast becoming our go-to takeout, with rising prices elsewhere (looking at you 5 guys). We got the fatty B and cockadoodle noodle. The buffalo butter sauce was delicious with a perfect balance of tang vs richness. We also tried the chipotle ranch, was also on point. The cockadoodle noodle is a nice idea but to me, lacked flavor, that's not a problem though with the fatty B or the Pancho villa (which we got last time). TL:DR - High quality and easy , inexpensive takeout for a busy family read more

Delicious calzones!! Came upon this restaurant by chance and it is so good. I got the Roasty Toasty calzone. Funnily enough, I didn't end up using the sauce because the calzone was perfectly cooked on its own. The sauce was good though. The mac and cheese calzone is soooo good, so if you like mac and cheese, you should get that too! Calzones are pretty big, I was full after half. They have local sodas and great service. Highly recommend! read more

Used to be great! But they have a new GM now and they are skimping on the filling now. So they are weighing it all and putting less in, but kept the price the same. We could totally tell and we won't be back. It's a shame! read more

Love this place. A local chain, fresh and delicious. I love the toasty toasty and strawberry fields salad.

it was very heavy and i wouldn't go back. personally we just don't like calzones that much but they found our glove so GOOD SERVICE!! i think it would be good if we liked calzones read more

I really think the calzones are a good value for as huge as they are! Half of one is plenty for a meal for me, so it's like buy one get one!

The food tasted really weird. We took a few bites and didn't even finish eating. Not sure if they were having a bad night but don't care to go back. read more

Had this again for the second time last week. I had the Meat me in St. Louie and it was excellent. Love this spot. The service is good and the atmosphere is great. read more

We ordered a salad and a calzone. The salad was good considering it was made with iceberg lettuce. It was fresh with good ingredients and a nice dressing. The calzone looked fabulous in the box. It was rather meh. There was nothing flavorful about it. The dough was fair. The ingredients were fair. There was a sauce on the side which I think was supposed to be garlic butter? It was not flavorful enough to be able to discern what it was. I can't see us trying it again. read more

Our first time here was last year during COVID-19 restrictions, so we had eaten outside on their small patio. Food was good, service was fine -- I think they brought water out to us to keep us out. This time (on a Saturday afternoon) we dined inside. Food was good -- I tried the special, with Gyro meatballs, cucumbers, black olives, red onions, tomatos, feta cheese, and probably another ingredients, with Tzatziki as Sauce on the Side. Usually when I get a Gyro I ask to leave out onions but with this being baked with lots of cheese, I didn't mind the onions. Daughter had the Gonzo without dates. Got our own water from fountain, and to-go boxes & lid for sauce where there as well. Music was too loud and too "Rock" for our tastes so next time we'll dine outside again. read more

Our first time visiting this establishment and we were greeted by the manager, Edward. Asked if we had ever been there before. Proceeded to explain all the options in a very friendly and helpful way. Very warm and seemed to genuinely care about our experience. The food was hot and flavored well. Clean restaurant and inviting atmosphere. We will be back! read more

Food always hot! Service always with a smile. Great spot for all. Clean and spacious.

Nee to town and had already heard about this place. The staff asked if we had been in before and she was quick to give us the run down of the favorites, which made our decision easier. We had the Meat Me in St. Louie and the CockA Doodle Noodle (both from her list) and they were so good! Great ratio of crust to filling. Barbecue ranch was a great "sauce on the side." Depending on your appetite you can definitely split a calzone (unless you'd like leftovers to take home!). So many options of calzones will have us coming back so soon! read more

If you haven't had Sauce on the Side, you don't know what you are missing. We love it and we are soooo happy that we have one within a mile and a half of our home. It is delicious. My son gets the folds so he can add what he would like. My husband likes to try something new each time. I don't change too much. I highly recommend the Duke, it is full of flavor in every bite. Great service from the store and team. We recently did a subdivision delivery and they were on time and efficient. We can't wait to go back! read more

Food is good. Service is HORRIBLE. It has been a disappointing experience from beginning to end. It took 30 minutes to place my order online due to constant website crashes (4/15/2022). After I was finally able to place my order for curbside delivery, I got to the restaurant at the pickup time indicated on the receipt. I texted my information to the Curbside number on the sign. After waiting 10 minutes, I called the restaurant and was told that the order was ready and someone would bring it out momentarily. After waiting another 10 minutes, I came inside and had to wait another 7 minutes. Got my order with a blank stare from the waitress with "sorry". Recommendation to the restaurant: do NOT advertise a service if you are not prepared to provide it and train your wait staff. read more

Always good, monthly specials are the best especially thanksgiving for the Mayflower!

Order of 3 different calzones did not disappoint. Delicious from the fresh dough baked to perfection with generous toppings tucked inside. The design allows the flavors mix and protection from the heat and drying in the oven. Sauce on is literally on the side and allows the perfect ratio. read more

We came to SotS on a Saturday night so we were expecting it to be busier. When we walked in we were immediately served, their menu is large and we wanted everything on it so it took us a long time to decide. The girl who was taking our order was patient and kind, helping my entire family with their orders. When we ordered, we took a seat and noticed the decor was fun and the place seemed clean, they had the cardinals game on and it was a nice mix of quiet families and dates. When they brought out the food the man who brought it was also extremely kind to us, and helped us with extras. We got the Meat Me In St. Louis, Roasty Toasty and the strawberry salad. The portions are huge and we didn't finish most of it. If there was anything I could change it would be the pesto sauce, it was a little too "green" tasting and I would like more depth and demension. We all loved our food and we expect to go back in the future. read more

Lots of people enjoy the restaurant, but it was not my cup of tea. The calzones all tasted the same to me. Uncomfortable chairs at high tables. Not a very good selection of drinks. Will not be going back. read more
