| - We really liked this place when it was Mojo's - new ownership and new name, and the menu states that it's still serving Mojo's pizza.
Before last night, we'd been once under the new ownership, I believe shortly after they took over. We just hadn't had a chance to go back until recently.
I've heard a number of complaints from my local friends, but because I once loved this pizza I thought I needed to give it a shot for myself. So we called for pick up and were told 25-30 minutes. We got there and no one was dining in, there were 2 people waiting on to-go orders and two people behind the counter. The staff was nice, one of them I recognized from before and remember him being helpful and nice.
We got there probably right at the 30 minute mark. The gal asked our name and went back to check on the pizza and came back and whispered something to her male counterpart - as I recall, they both went into the back (or maybe she did) and then she came back out and told us it'd be 10 minutes. It was a few more than 10 minutes, because it was a solid 60 minutes after we phoned in our order that it was brought out to us (cell phone time check).
I'm a little disappointed - yeah, the pizza was slow and we may have been forgotten about. Hey, sometimes it happens, we've all screwed up at work. BUT we didn't get an "I'm sorry" or "thanks for the wait". Not even when he brought the pizza out. I don't know if this is an employee issue or a management one - or maybe a bit of both. The very least the employees could have done was to acknowledge our wait; an acknowledgement goes a long way. Management's fault is not empowering the employee with the ability to say, "Sorry for the wait, can I offer you a soda while you wait?" It costs nothing to acknowledge and only a few cents for them to offer a beverage while we wait.
AND, you never know, I may have purchased a beer if offered a soda. Thus a bit more income to the day's sales.
The pizza ... the reason why you go to a pizza place. They still use sliced sausage, instead of ground, which we usually prefer. I felt like there was less sauce on it than there used to be (their sauce REALLY was good, no reason to skimp on it in my opinion). Among the complaints I've heard about that the pizza is very greasy. We ordered pepperoni/sausage, and with that kind of pizza comes an expectation of a certain amount of grease. I don't think the pizza was greasy beyond that of my expectations. I DO think, however, that the pizza was a little more soggy in the center (although, I did always ask for 'extra crispy' when I called them because I have always thought their pizza slice a little softer than I care for). You know how a Napoletana is softer on the inside and almost tears apart? That's kind of how I found these slices.
After talking with my husband, we think it's a temperature problem. We don't think that the pizza oven is hot enough, thus the soggy center.
The taste was good, though, and I am pleased to see their continued use of the sliced sausage.
