Last time we went we ordered a couple slices and someone forgot about them in the oven. It was no problem because we were dining in, enjoying our beer. The slices came out excellent as always, they threw in a free dessert and a discount for the extended wait time which was literally only five minutes. That was a good move on their part because now every time I go back I'll be getting a chocolate mousse. It is so rich and delicious.

We also bought four beers from the cooler. My only two knocks were how slow the service was- they seemed to be more interested in preparing to close than taking care of their patrons, and the .50 cents I was charged for a side of mayonnaise. We spent over $60 (including tip)... was the .50 cent charge really necessary?

Just a suggestion: since Tuesday's seem to be a slow night, maybe you could attract a more mixed aged crowd with music other than head banging or heavy metal. From 5:30 pm to 6:45, I think you only had one couple come in for pizza. There was one at the bar. Not my favorite music. I know you are across from TTec. But a variety of music could attract other patrons. Just a thought!

It would be nice if this was a place to go for sporting events as the beer selection is quite good. We ate a pizza and a chicken Parmesan sandwich. The pizza crust was pale - so slightly undercooked but the cheese on top was perfect. It was a bit heavily sauced. The chicken Parmesan was a bit disappointing. Taste was good but it was diced chicken and would have been better with a good solid chicken cutlet instead. I wasn't a fan of the roll as it was a bit dry. We ordered wine - which came from airline style single drink bottles. A bit underwhelming if you like to drink wine - but perhaps this is not the place for wine. Not sure if I'll be back but it wasn't bad.

I didn't notice an outdoor patio, but there is a small parking area in the back with a rear entrance, which was convenient. We went on a Tuesday night, which the staff said was one of their slower nights, but by the time we left there were still about 7 tables filled. We ordered the pretzel with beer cheese, Philly cheesesteak pizza, meatball sandwich, and a few strombolis. The pizza and strombolis were fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The beer cheese was really good, though the pretzel itself wasn't my favorite....it tasted a bit microwaved. The meatball sandwich was also excellent with a flavorful sausage and beef mix, great bread, and a generous portion. The staff was pleasant, the beer was cold, and overall it was a great experience. We'd definitely come back again!

I will discuss the service, ambiance and the food. My experience with the food was the Caesar Salad, Lasagna, and tastes of food from those at the table. Service was great. Our server was attentive, answered our questions and even brought me some extra pepperoncini when I asked for them. She was pleasant and patient as we pondered our selections. When my adult son asked about what was tap, she brought a taster for him. Across the street from the courthouse, on the square of a town founded in 1809, the restaurant inherited a period building with brick walls. I have been in Italy and I can say that the decorations were authentic. This MAY have been a church in a previous life, but there are a few clues, particularly to loft at the front of the building. A spiral staircase leads to it, about a story and half above the main floor. Closed to visitors, I understand at times it is a live music stage. Food was good - very good, just not good enough to warrant a full 4*s. So here are my picky comments. Lasagna was a large portion and well balanced for flavor. I'm used to pasta, even in lasagna to be more al dente. For the price, there was not enough meat to satisfy my taste buds or wallet. We opted for the family sized Caesar salad,which again, was good. I'm used to more garlic as well as a more flavorful and more abundant dressing. Two pizzas also came to our table and the four diners enjoying them, liked them much. For a wood fired oven, I am more used to a more prominent smoky flavor - from my small taste. Toppings were adequate and looked great on the pie when they came out. Chianti is only available by the bottle. I would have liked a single glass. It could grow on me if I lived or worked in the area. I would not object to going back with my party when we visit, but a 75 minute drive is not worth the trip.
