The vegetables especially the olives smelled and tasted old and it’s not just me but everybody that ate that pizza said the same thing. Everybody said what’s that weird smell the minute I bought it into the house. For a gormet pizza place there are other pizza places that are far superior. PS: Even Costco pizza is far superior to this pizza at a third of the cost. I’ve been eating pizza over 60 years and that’s the way I see it!

I’m not sure why we keep giving this place a shot but here we are. Every single item in our order was incorrect. Subbed about half of our mozzarella sticks with fried zucchini. Sandwich was awful, disgusting rotten lettuce. This is when they even have the items on the menu. I hope this time we’ve learned our lesson.

Pizza is was ok. I found a lot of bacon fat and not much of any bacon on my pizza. I had to tell the staff to put gloves on. They were touching money then the register and then my food! :/

This is how my ravioli showed up. This was the second order of ravioli because they didn’t get the first one right. Complained and was completely ignored. Then they denied I even ordered it. Seriously??? And they NEVER refunded me either. I’d give them minus stars if I could.

Really great customer service, atmosphere, and delicious food! The owner is very kind and provided tailored service to us. Their menu items are unique too and are served in generous portions. Definitely coming back. I recommend the penne alla vodka

Have had some great pizza here. Also had their breakfast sandwiches two days in a row… obviously, good! Awesome bagels. Fresh ingredients. Sunday morning there’s some live music on their patio. They are doing a good job w this place, hopefully management and staff can keep up!
