Sad to see this place go down the tubes. Yes, in the 70's we enjoyed Garcia's pizza almost weekly. Now, I might never go back.
Our pizza was promised for 3PM. We ordered salads and soda and sat down. We split salads, so I needed extra forks. Went to the counter to ask for them and was told that they needed to be washed. Really?! They were brought out to us shortly.
After noticing at 3:15 that the pizza hadn't arrived, I went to the counter to ask about it. Ralph (Flying Tomato Brother) said it had 3 more minutes to bake. When I reminded him it was to be ready at 3:00, he said he was working ALONE and had an unexpected rush (Really?!). Told him he should have let me know when we arrived. (Pizza was ordered about an hour earlier by phone.) Got a (free) pitcher of soda and sat back down. Pizza arrived approximately 10 minutes later.
Any way...after a few unhappy experiences, we enjoyed the heavy weight stuffed pizza.
Don't know if I'll ever go here again. Shame to see this place in the state it is in. Needs Restaurant Impossible (Food Network)!
