| - Pizza as a fast food concept, with a distinctive green and organic feel? Sounds great, but consistency needs a bit more work at this newly opened business.
I've been in for lunch a number of times now and I can definitively say the service is quick and the wait is never long. You order at the counter and then your meal is brought table side, while you help yourself to the beverage counter. Parking is either street-side or in the Met Deck (both hazards worthy of their own review). Assuming you get in the door, however, the indoor and outdoor dining space is relatively clean and inviting.
Pizzas come with a choice or white of multi-grain crusts. They are all generally made in a thin crust style, however. There are a number of pre-defined combo pizzas and you can always make you own. Prices are generally in line with other speciality pizza joints about town. I have found, though, that the pizza is a bit inconsistent in its finish. Sometimes it is a bit oblong, other times it is round. Sometimes it is flat as a board, other times it has some nice air pockets in the crust. Sometimes the crust is a bit more charred on the edges. These all point to signs that more experience is needed in the kitchen, as you would expect at a brand new franchise.
Aside from pizza, however, there are a number of salad options with dressings that I find very flavorful. Dessert pie options are tempting, but just too much at the lunch hour. I do, however, appreciate the Boylan's soda fountain. It's fits well with the organic theme and the flavors are great. Just know that there is no Coke and Pepsi coming from there, but the cola flavor is a nice alternative.
In all, this may not be a place to impress, but it is an acceptable casual eatery option that is a bit more health conscious than most other fast food neighbors. With quick order to table times and a good number of options to pick from on the menu, it's a fine choice. Hopefully with time comes a bit more consistency.
