| - Food is usually good but we did have a Meh dinner there this week. Saturday night, ate in, and ordered side salads and a Sicilian pizza with pinched sausage and mushrooms.
I prefer pinched sausage over sausage kibble you generally get on pizzas so I was looking forward to that hot, juicy slice. The pizza arrives very quickly. I mean so quick that it made me wonder. Anyway, we finished our salads and served out the slices.
So ok, here's the list. Crust was likely precooked. And for a slightly deeper crust I guess they do that. The pizza was underdone, frankly. The cheese barely melted and some on my slice wasn't fully melted. The sausage was tired looking from the start. Nothing juicy about it. The mushrooms neither fresh nor cooked. Mind you, if you're going to put mushrooms on a pizza, why not sauté them so they develop flavor and don't dry out? The sauce was nowhere near bubbly when it arrived and when we dug into it, well just sad. Could have been a frozen pizza.
Sicilian is not their signature pizza.
Service was nice, we did return it with a few bites missing from some pieces, and they did refund the pie. The manager did come over and ask us what was wrong and gave a bit of attitude about not eating it right away (we waited 5 minutes) but if it's not cooked, scarfing is not going to help. I should mention that they offered to cook another but we were off pizza by that time.
