9/30/23 - Visiting from VA, and decided to come here after walking about downtown a bit. There wasn't too much of a wait which was nice. A Bill Burr show just ended so it seemed a bit busier. There seemed to be only one waiter and he was moving. He definitely did the best he could. The food was okay. My fiancé got the margarita pizza and it was pretty cold. I got a Caesars salad which was really good. I loved the seasoning/dressing. Our local friends got a sausage pizza and seemed to like it. The vibe was nice in there too. It was interesting to be able to see the cooks cooking too. I loved seeing the bricked oven. Was a good spot for fast food.
Came late night after a comedy show. Place was hopping. The staff was on the ball and very accommodating to boot. We had a large party of comics full of adrenaline post show and we had a great time. Food was on point, drinks were quick, and prices were incredibly reasonable.
Wings were sub par, calamari was actually worse than dog food. Only bearable thing was the pizza and the most delicious thing were the meatballs.
The best calzone I’ve ever had — including during four years of living in Italy.
They make their own ricotta and mozzarella cheese.
I love the dinner there and it was trivia day too. It is the hardest trivia of my life but I enjoyed a lot. The pizza and calzones were very good. The must try is the meatballs, the best I ever had I had as appetizer and in my calzone. Also there is a huge beverage selection and very fun atmosphere. It is a must check place for a pizza.
Fantastic pizza at this place & all the tables and bar are made from the bowley alley lanes that were in the basement. Pizza is amazing, the crust is so fluffly yet crispy in all the right ways. Went with a bolognese pizza bc ive never had one and it was delicious!
Stopped in briefly to order take out. I was greeted right away and as fresh as the pizza is made to order, I did not have to wait long. Ordered the margherita, pepperoni, and classic calzone. 🍕🤌🏼 Delicious!
Looking for a late bite to eat after a concert at State Theatre this is the place. Located just across the street, this place has everything from a wood-fired pizza, to pasta, and salads. My friend and I were starved, so we chose a Margherita pizza, Caesar salad, and a meatball appetizer. Staff was friendly and attentive throughout our experience! Our food and drinks were promptly served even though they were crazy busy. The meatball was flavorful, saucy, and the ricotta that accompanied super creamy. The salad was so fresh and flavorful! Heads up, it does have real anchovies in it. The pizza was cheesy, saucy, and delicious! Overall, my friend and I were highly satisfied with our delicious meal! Highly recommend, superb food and amazing staff.
