| - The people here are the best. Let's start with that. I was stuck waiting at the DMV and really wanted a slice of pizza. I Yelped and saw this place Johnny Vegas wasn't too far. It had some crazy food combinations, like the Philly Fries and the Pizza-dilla. I couldn't pass those up so I ordered both. I called in to place a pickup order, and besides not saying his name, the gentleman was very helpful and polite. Before I arrived, Taryn (I think that's how you spell it) called and told me my food was ready and how to get there, because they were inside of a bar and their sign had blown off. They don't have a lot of space inside, but it works. It's not in a great neighborhood, and you can't bring your kids in. Sorry.
Taryn was expecting me and greeted me by name. I paid and we made small talk. She offered different suggestions to other things on the menu. I noticed something wrong on my order but they quickly took care of it. While I waited I ate the pizza-dilla. Kinda greasy, super cheesy and decent. 8/10. It would've been better with something more than just cheese. While I was eating, the delivery driver came in, stayed for a second, and left. On his way out, he smiled and spoke to me. Ok why is everyone so nice...
Taryn seemed to be training someone (he was also nice, aware a patron was in his establishment; a novel idea these days), and you could tell she took pride in teaching and just being there in general. She was very engaging and has such a great smile! Basically... she was amazing. My new order came out. Before I left we talked a little more. I was just so impressed.
I tried the Philly fries back at the DMV. First thought... Damn this is a small portion. I guess I was used to the massive loads you get from Robertos. Didn't matter, I didn't finish it either way, SMH. 9/10. I think I would like it better if the fries weren't seasoned. It kinda clashes with the great seasoning of the steak. Plain fries I think would be a 10.. I like the ideas they have, and being from the east coast, not too far from Philly, I looooove Philly Cheesesteaks. I would like to try other things on their menu. But their service was a 100/10. That's not a typo. They're all that good. I don't live on this side but would consider driving over to eat and chill. I might seriously start doing that.
Taryn, thanks for being a highlight in my day!
