| - I baptize this place, and hence be known as a "Dive Pizza Place."
I agree with many that nostalgia is a big factor with this place. No, I did not go to Ryerson but I lived nearby so I would pass by this place on my way from *XYZ* more times than I can remember.
Yes, the staff is friendly, I agree with other Yelpers, and although pretty flat (aka:. thin) the slices where a good size and they tastes a bit like some of the ones I have in New York. And they tasted great! However when you are starving and had a few, many things, like a hot dog taste great.
I always ordered mine to go, however the few times I actually sat down and ate, well, this place is a mixture of a zoo, in the sense of the odd, tired, tipsy and skanky characters that walk in and it can just depressing.
The lighting, the tired looking decor and the simple, bargain bin furniture... Sigh.
In the end, I think one of the most important indicators whether a place is really good -nostalgia or not, is if you would be willing to trek it if you live far away. So, would I?
I live near Yonge and Bloor and I have not gone there since I moved out 4 years ago. Even when I walk by it still.
But if I were to be in the hood, very late and starving, I would go in.
