| - Today was our first visit to Chizona. We ordered takeout on a Sunday evening.
Before we placed our order, we checked Prime Now Delivery and Eat24. The prices were different on the two sites. Additional ingredients are $1.00 on Amazon, $.75 on Eat24. Amazon gives free delivery on orders over $35.
We arrived at the restaurant 5 minutes before the quoted time. They were extremely busy. New orders were being quoting 1 hour for pickup, longer for delivery. Our order took an additional 20 minutes. I don't fault the restaurant, accepting orders from so many sources (calls, Yelp, Amazon, etc.) must be challenging. The staff was friendly, and apologized for the wait.
We ordered an Italian Beef sandwich, a calzone, a antipasto salad, and a combo appetizer. When we got home, the food was still hot. The sandwich was larger than I expected. It came with hot peppers (free), and a side salad. The calzone was very good, and also included a side of marinara and fries. The combination (onion rings, zucchini, and mushrooms were still crispy. The batter held up well. The antipasto salad had a ton of meat and cheese. It was a meal in itself.
We had a $5 coupon, and our order came out to $28.00. This was a fantastic value for what we received. The quality and portion size were well above what we expected, and was worth the wait. We look forward to visiting Chizona again.
