| - My fiancé and I ate here today. We ordered a large pepperoni and cheese pizza. I was excited because I have driven by this place many times and it looks cool from the front. When we received our pizza it was extremely greasy. I did not want to say anything though because I didn't want my fiancé to not eat it. So I toughed out the first slice. Before I was about to eat my next slice she said "we need more napkins, this pizza is extremely greasy". I agreed so I went to the front and got more napkins. On the way back to my table I glanced at another pizza with pepperoni on it at the table beside us and noticed it wasn't as greasy. When I got back to our table my fiancé dabbed about 5 napkins full of grease. Then I looked at my plate and it was covered in grease. I came clean, I told my fiancé that this pizza is way too greasy. I said I checked the table behind me, they have a similar order and their pizza is no were near as greasy as ours. I worked at Speedy's Pizza in Sylva NC for three years and never once saw a pizza made that greasy. I told her we have to say something. So we flagged our waitress down and told her and she got the manager. When the manager came to the table, where there were noticeably 5 disgusting napkins and grease everywhere, and asked us what the problem was? We said look at our pizza, it is covered in grease. She said; "obviously you have not tried our pepperonis". And my fiancé said "look, I have never seen a pizza this greasy in my life". I decided to cut in because I felt the conversation was getting ridiculous. I just asked that she comp our pizza and we will pay for all the other items we ordered. The manager became emotional and took offense to this. She kept asking if she could make us a cheese pizza. I didn't want to go through all of that I wanted to leave by now and she said; "never have I had a customer not let me make it right". But she said it really loud and it embarrassed the hell out of us. To make matters worse, in the back this waitress made 2 comments. The first one was, "I ate that pizza they sent back and it was amazing!!" The second was "I'm going to send back 3 perfectly good 18 inch pizzas today from pain in the ass customers just to see what happens" Me and my fiancé were embarrassed. Look, I worked in that industry. I know it's a hard job. I always said once I get out of the industry I will look back on my experience there and tip well and be polite to cooks and waitstaff. I always do that. However, I am not going to get diarrhea and be sick all night and pay 16 some odd dollars for a pizza to appease these people. The pizza was not edible. The manager did comp us our entire meal and gave us a free cheese pizza. In all honesty, it was a back handed deal. She was upset with us, they were talking about us noticeably loud in the back and she wanted to make a point. Look, we didn't like the greasy pizza OK? No love lost, we don't want any problems. We did accept the pizza which is probably covered in spit. I just wanted to say, upon further review, this cheese pizza taste like computer paper. So there, I still don't like it. Don't eat here.
