| - So it's been a while since I've been to a sit-down pizza place so I decided to go here and give this place a shot. To my surprise, even though they had only been open for 2.5 weeks every table was full when I arrived with my date. The wait time was only 5 minutes - and a good excuse to cozy up next to my date on the bench by the door (evil plan, I know!)
After our wait we were awarded a booth. Unlike some places, this was a pretty good sized booth that I think you could probably fit 3 people on each side and not have an absolute elbow fight fest. They also had bigger booths and tables if you party was larger or smaller. The chairs were comfortable, even for my nearly Dirty-30yr old back.
I liked the atmosphere. The lights were down low and even the table light was not blinding, but also not so dim that you couldn't see who was across from you. I liked this. Even though all tables were occupied, the place wasn't all that loud. No yelling at your date like at the new club.
It is kind a fine line to walk but in honesty it is a pet peeve of mine as to how frequent the server comes. Too often and I feel like I can't even carry a conversation because I'm always having to stop and say "yes everything is OK." Too sparse and I end up getting aggravated and attempt to fall asleep at the table to get your attention. Our server was kind and wasn't overly in your face and even when she came by she would crack a joke or something - I'm not really sure how to describe it other than I felt like she was being constructive instead of fulfilling an obligation to meet some corporate quota on server table visits.
Food. Alright, first off I'm an idiot. I brought my date to a pizza place when she was allergic to gluten. Great right? I just brought her to a place where she can't eat! I only tell you this because after the dust settled she decided that she could have some of it. So here you have it... someone that knows that they are going to get sick from eating the food... and they ate it anyways. And they liked it and said it was "worth it" (or maybe she meant I was worth it? No, no, it was the pizza!). That's a pretty good testament of the food... RIGHT? I think so and I agree that the food was pretty good! We got the cheese sticks and a halved pizza (two different types) with two of the signatures.
Another thing with food that I always review is the reheatability. I know this is kind of weird, but it is disappointing to take some food home and when you reheat it tastes like garbage. Both the pizza and the sticks reheated well. So, bonus points there Boombozz.
So here's the final verdict. Cool place. Cool workers. Cool food. I'll be back. As for the date, unfortunately we didn't work out. Maybe if I hadn't taken her to a gluten party house things may have. :P
