Save yourself some money and pick up a frozen pizza from Vons (nearby) instead. The fried zucchini was still partly frozen and texture was like snot. Pizza was chewy, soggy, and cold. They also got our toppings wrong. Im super bummed, I love finding previously undiscovered local spots. But this was a truly terrible experience. I don’t typically leave negative reviews because I’d rather give a place benefit of the doubt but I actually feel like I threw money away. They also charged 10% more for using a card and a 3.5% service fee (it was a pickup order). I’ll be calling tomorrow to request a refund.
Great traditional Italian dishes and nice portions for good price! We order lasagna and ravioli. Parking: Plenty parking lot and while a bit busy for dinner we got a table for a party of fourin under 15 minutes, and the food came out under 30 minutes. A great local classic Italian food.
Great place. Great pizza! I’ve been visiting this establishment for 12 years and won’t go back. If the individual is working at the front desk with an attitude then you’ll know exactly why! there’s other places to go…
