Had dinner in the place last night. We always enjoy the pizza but this time decided to also get the garlic knots and a large salad. The house salad was big, with freshly chopped lettuce and delicious toppings. Enough for 3 hungry people. The knots were perfect. Now I want more thinking about them! Friendly service also.

We get delivery from here a few times. Has almost always been on time. (I had to fix a mistaken review from another place I put on here). Food is good and my kids really like the chicken Alfredo pizza.

That's not a Calzone, now this, is a Calzone. Ordered over the phone a couple hours ahead of time, putting in for a dozen Garlic Knots, a "small" salad with House Italian, and a Fried Calzone with Onion, Mushroom and Peppers. All together coming to a very acceptable price tag of a little over $24.00. When I got home and opened it all up I was astounded by the sheer size of the Calzone, it was like they took a medium pizza and just folded it in half. Woof, that was a lot of cheese. Sadly I did go with the fried option, because I though that'd make the dough crispy, but instead it had a texture more inline with carnival fried dough. The Garlic Knots were, stupendous, lightly crunchy with a good soaking in the garlic butter to give them rich flavor. Probably my favorite part of the meal. As for the salad, well, I don't know if it was the house Italian or what, but the salad was strangely sour. The dressing also seemed at first brush to have zero flavor, just an extremely simple olive oil and vinegar blend with a few spices, so I was left befuddled as to why it was as off-putting as it was. Also, they weren't kidding when they listed the "small" salad as serving for 2-3, can't imagine what the large looks like. All in all this meal was very very filling for a very reasonable price, the people I did interact with were friendly (or adorable in the cashier's case), but the lack of crunch from the Calzone and the sour salad leaves me subtracting a star. Still, a great local joint that easily beats out the chain pizzerias.

First time stopping after many years of driving past. Excellent White Pizza with tomatoes, Excellent Hawaiian Pizza, and Excellent Wings. Excellent crust on the pizzas. Will Definitely be a returning customer
