| - Great food, terrible service.
I walked in here to meet my mom for a simple dinner. I had ordered the Thursday $10 Calabrese pizza and pop special. For those that don't know Calabrese is spicy. So I kindly asked them to split the pizza - half pepperoni, half Calabrese. I gladly paid for the extra topping.
Not knowing if the Calabrese was the pepperoni or vice versa, I had kindly asked the waitress, Julia which one was which. Based off her irritated body language, she wasn't happy about my question. She walked around the counter and made me feel stupid that I even asked the question - "this is obviously pepperoni."
Obviously, I wasn't happy about Julia's attitude and was very straightforward how I felt. Julia eventually walked back to me and forcefully apologized and explained that she, "can't believe people ask these kind of questions, it's common sense" and then said, "did you not see pepperoni before?"
I explained to Julia I'm not one to judge anybody's situation or why they act a certain way as I worked retail before and understand some people don't treat "workers behind the counter with respect", but for the people that do show respect and treat them like anybody else, she should acknowledge and do the same. Don't let one bad apple ruin it for everybody else.
She was rude, maybe it was the lack of a/c or maybe she had a bad day. I understand the latter, but she shouldn't make a respectable client feel like that. Totally embarrassed and ruined a dinner with my mom.
Worst service I ever encountered in a eatery spot. Sorry to say, because of my experience with Julia, it ruined my perception of this place.
Great spot for pizza or gelato though - just make sure you take it to go.
