| - My wife, her sister, her sister's boyfriend and I decided to go here after we opted against going to another high end pizza place because of their shoddy service but continued to have a craving for pizza.
On our way there - I made a joke that we might have to wait 45 minutes and if so, we'll just eat at Pizza Pizza (local cheapy chain). When we arrived, my wife was told the wait time was 45 minutes. Shoot.
So, yes, there can be a wait.
Luckily, a table was finishing up and we got a spot within 5 minutes!
Service - quick and attentive. The servers are casual ordering was kind of like a friend asking you which beer you want from their fridge. Later, when I didn't realize I had dropped my napkin and they placed a new one on the table for me while picking up the dirty one. Brownie points! Water refills were quick and so did the beer. They also explained what some of the topping were since we weren't entirely sure.
I'm going to go on a slight tangent here and praise the business model of this place. Any pizza you order is placed in a stone oven heated at 850 to 900 degrees! This means, according to Pizza Libretto, that pizzas cook for 90 seconds! In turn, this results in food that is made fresh to order in under 5 minutes - 3 minutes prep time and 2 minutes cook time. Think about what this means for customer service - High quality food, fast! Think about what this means for business - quick turnover -$$. Brilliant! Anyways...
Anyways, I ordered the salami pizza. As expected, the pizza came quick. The crust was light, the toppings were a bit sparse but still provided enough taste and goodness. The cheese was quality! I devoured it! Then I devoured half of my wife's order - margherita (She was full). Then a quarter of her sister's bf order (He was full). In all, I almost ate two whole pizzas and I'd do it again!
All in all, great place, good atmosphere, great service but can be pricy at about $1 for each "personal" pizza. This is expensive 6compared to regular pizza but cheap compared to regular restaurant entrees. Your call!
PS. Great place to take a date. :), If you can get seated quickly.
PPS. An Italian buddy of mine says "that's how pizzas taste in Italy".
