| - I was so excited to finally go to a RTP after not being near one for years. I was disappointed.
There were five employees in the building. Two heavier set guys were working and were very nice and helpful. A delivery driver was there, also working and very nice. There was a guy in a grubby RTP tee, eating and there was a young woman there who couldn't be bothered enough to look up from her phone.
The store wasn't dirty, but there are a LOT of repairs that need to be done. The dining area, lobby, restrooms and (empty) arcade all had a lot of damage.
I ordered a pepperoni pizza and Parmesan twists. The pizza was just good, and how I remembered it tasting, but the twists... I don't know if the recipe has changed in the years since I last ate at RTP, or if the staff made them incorrectly, but they were my favorite thing on the menu and I was very disappointed. I remember twists with ooey, gooey, creamy garlic sauce twisted into breadsticks covered in Parmesan cheese. What I got, was a lot of bread. Dry bread with barely enough garlic and parm to differentiate them as twists and not crusts.
The three nice gentlemen earned the three stars. I won't go back for the ambiance or the food.
