Customer Reviews
Wow! I didn't expect the quality for this mom'n'pops shop. I ordered the chicken ceaser salad with the dressing on the side. The salad was fresh and crisp, the chicken was freshly made and cut and the best part..... the croutons are made in-house!!!! I'm pretty sure the dressing is also made in-house, and it all just was perfect. I will be returning to try the pastas another time. You can't beat that price!!! Please support this restaurant and eat here!
These pizzas are so incredible and unique. Not only are they large, but the doughy crust makes for one of my favorite pizza experiences of all time. They are a mom and pop shop with odd hours so you have to know there’s a chance they won’t pick up the phone, but when they do, my heart dances a little bit. If you can, try the ricotta / artichoke heart pizza. It is one of the top 5 pizzas of my life ❤️
Hole in the wall Italian. A very good deal for home Italian food. Service was very good; we were the only people in there today and everything was quick. They were attentive without hovering, and very accommodating. The menu prices were outdated and they were out of some things - this place needs a little love and more customers. My fiancé and I had fettuccine Alfredo, penne arrabiata, two Cokes, and garlic bread. We spent $38 (plus tip). My fiancé enjoyed the fettuccine - there are carrots in it, which give it an earthy flavor. I had a bite and would add a bit of salt and crushed red pepper, but that’s my taste. I enjoyed the arrabiatta. It’s a spicy pasta, around a medium to hot in a Mexican food scale. The sauce was chunky and they didn’t skimp on the Parmesan, which was powdered. Th
Decided to try this place while working in the area. No AC, just a little fan in the corner that she pointed at me when I sat down. No prices on the menu, she told me sandwiches were $15, so I got the 8” meatball sub. Meatballs were cut in half to make them go farther & each half of my sub only had 4 halves, there was more cheese & sauce than meatball to cover it up. While I was eating, an older gentleman came in to pickup his order which rang up to almost $63. I thought, wow, he must be hungry & ordered a bunch. He walked out with 2 medium size pizza boxes, OUCH. I should’ve taken the hint when I walked in at almost noon & the place was empty. I’m all for supporting mom & pop businesses, but the food’s not that great, the prices aren’t great either (grandpa got taken I think). I won’t be
Great family restaurant with delicious food. The owner, Chris, is a delight. I’ve never had something I didn’t like there. The calzones will feed your entire family with some left over and the sandwiches have the most delicious homemade bread.
