| - Typically I order from Ephesus Pizza (they are amazing!) but this time I gave Genoa a shot. It unfortunately was bad. I'm giving it 2 stars, as I think a 1 star review is reserved for those who find sanitary issues (bugs, hair, etc) or something pretty heinous. I'll give you a play by play:
1) Delivery driver gets here. He calls as they typically do, and I walk outside. He is sitting in his car in the middle of the street and continues to sit there. I literally had to walk barefoot to his drivers side door to get my food.
2) I ordered fries, 2x gyros and a large pizza. I open up the fries and they are soggy as all hell. Now, fries are tricky. Most restaurants poke holes in the box to let the steam escape so they don't get super gross. This restaurant did not.
3) I open the gyros up and they are sooooo soggy from the grease off the gyro meat. It's wet and slimy and pretty gross feeling. I pull out the tzatziki and it's fully separated. This means it was made (lord knows when), portioned off in portion cups and thrown in the fridge. Then the waters separate from the dairy fats. It's not bad, it just looks bad. What was bad though, was the lettuce on the gyro. It was soggy (probably from mixing with the hot grease from the gyro meat) and it was brown and tasted awful.
4) I open the pizza, hoping that it would redeem the poor quality of the meal, and it's lukewarm at best. This is within 5 minutes of it being dropped off. I was so disappointed. Flavor was ok (it was chicken and bacon), but the crust is that generic crappy dough that you find at any hotel delivery pizza place like Pizza Mia, Pizza Palermo, Pizza Parma, Pizza Perfectta....you get the idea.
Never am I going to order from here again. Issues across the board, so I highly doubt it was a one time situation. I'm definitely going back to Ephesus as my go-to. They are fantastic with many many more wonderful options. Can you say "dry plum chicken pizza"? Because it's the best.
