| - I was so excited to try this place, such great reviews. As soon as we got there the excitement turned to disappointment. My husband and I decided on a last minute date night when I get off work. I had been looking at this on yelp and it was on my list. We went last night, Sunday, and got there about 8 pm (they closed at 9 pm).
First we walked in, was not sure where to go since it was out first time. Someone walked by and said the hostess will be back in a few minutes. So we waited..and waited. About 15 minutes later a hostess arrived. We asked to be seated outside since it was beautiful out. She was annoyed that the table she sat us at was directly against a bench which I kept hitting my elbow on. We asked to move (there were a lot of tables) which annoyed her even more. About 15 minutes later our server showed up (granted now the close in 30 minutes). We asked for a cup of ice and lemons for our water multiple times...never saw those the whole meal. She came to the table for our order and stated they only had 4 pizza's left so if we wanted pizza we needed to order immediately. Since we had never been there, looking at the menu for 3-4 minutes was not enough time, but we wanted pizza. We got a pepperoni like pizza and a sausage and potato white pizza. We also ordered calamari as a appetizer.
When the food came out, all of it came at once. This is my biggest pet peeve of restaurants!! Appetizers come before a meal...not with it! The calamari was nothing to talk about...frozen and bland. The best thing about it was that we got the lemons with is, so we used those in our water. The pizzas came out at the same time...again nothing great. The crust was actually delicious, but there was hardly any cheese on them at all. We asked for parm cheese, never got that either. On the potato pizza the potatoes were still hard (under cooked) so we peeled them all off. The pepperoni was okay, just needed more cheese. The crust was the best part of the pizza.
The food was okay...the service was horrible (never got what we asked for, drinks empty whole meal, and rushed to get everything since it was close to closing). I think with this experience we will not come back here. We drove over 30 minutes to try this place and it was a disappointment. I know there are a lot of good reviews, but this is my view, which is not great.
