I was so excited to give this place 5 stars but couldn't begin to pull the trigger. The food is worthy of it, but the service and atmosphere insists that I kick it down a notch. Sorry!
The pizza was fantastic. I ordered The Boss and it was huge. Crust was wonderful and ingredients were abundant and fresh. It tasted great and the texture was awesome. Really just a wonderful Za. We also ordered the pear salad which was fantastic. We saw other orders coming out and they all looked equally as special. The slices available for a quick grab and go looked great too.
But the acoustics were horrible. I couldn't carry on a conversation once a few people got there after their movie got out. I couldn't even understand the waitress when she was explaining something about the gelato. She was new, so I don't wanna rattle the cage too much but after our pizza came she was overly occupied with small talk with other tables it seemed. The place is small, so there can't be more than 20 tables but she seemed a little overwhelmed. Plus, the tables are way too close. Another couple came in and sat down next to us and I felt as though I was obligated to have a conversation with them. That's too close.
Lastly, that darned Western exposure is a killer at dusk and between having the sun glaring in our faces, the couple almost on top of us and the fact that we couldn't hear ourselves over the rest of the noise in the place really undid so much of the quality that we would've enjoyed otherwise.
But if you want a great pizza, I'd have to say that this is on the top of the list.
I hope that they can cozy it up a little bit and put some padding on the ceiling or something. If I was in a comfy booth facing away from the sun I think that it would have been there. Right now I am just happy that I've got 3 slices left over for the week!!!
