“ We are fairly new customers, taking out this past year and love it! I keep wanting to try different things, but can't because I love their mushroom pizza so much. Fresh mushrooms, not canned. And their sauce and dough are so good. Also love their generous greek salad, it's shareable. And they give a delicious homemade bread triangle, so unique to this place. Highly recommend! ”
“ We love their food, Calzones, pizza, salad, steak tips, subs, chicken tenders all are really good. Went in today to pickup our order. The young lady at the counter was awesome, very pleasant and kind. God bless her and you all. ”
“ So for everything has been quite good and very reasonably priced. Huge portions. I do wish that their marinara sauce had a little more depth to it. It's definitely missing something but is okay. The meatballs definitely seem like they were previously frozen but they were also fine. It's not fine dining by any means but it's solid food at a good price. ”
