| - I know it's a chain, but man, did I have some good food here.
For me, the only problem I ran into here was that when we entered the hostess was MIA. Making us stand in a line for only about five minutes. After that little hold up, it was smooth sailing.
My friend and I opted to sit at the bar instead of taking up a table...good choice on our part. Upon sitting down we were greeted by the bartender promptly, I believe his name was Brian (if I'm wrong, I apologize to you sir). We were asked what we wanted to drink and given some menus. While looking over the menus my friend and I decided to partake in an adult beverage. I stayed with what I knew and had a beer, my friend had their berry sangria. His words for the taste, "It's like drinking Kool-Aid." After that we ordered an appetizer. Opting for the sesame ginger chicken dumplings. The mixture of flavors were very good. The addition of scallions to a bite made the flavors pop even more.
We were still debating on what pizza to get when our appetizer had arrived. Upon asking the bartender what his thoughts were about ordering just one pizza and he said that with an appetizer, it should be enough; he was right. We got the Sicilian, and my god was it good. It was a mixture of meats, mozzarella, and a spicy marinara sauce. I believe we had it made sitting at the bar too. Once the pizza arrived the bartender said since we were sitting there, the pizza chef put a little extra toppings on there for us. I mean, when you sit at the bar, you get to see all the food being made. So thumbs up to you pizza chef (he had also said that making the Sicilian was one of his favorites to make).
Overall, the experience I had here will definitely warrant a return visit.
Points to note: outdoor seating during warmer months, they take reservations (so call ahead if you know it will be busy), Entrances from both outside and inside the mall.
