Victor's review does not surprise me. Verns is a franchise, and because franchisee's tend to get completely plundered by the company they represent, it is more lucrative to lose a $40/order/month customer instead of comp'ing a new pie. Sad.
This place is EXPENSIVE, but you get a big thick pie with fresh ingredients. I am a big guy and can normally scoff down a medium pizza by myself after work. I got the large, and I had leftovers for two (2) days. I got the super spicy pizza and it was actually spicy (I have a high spice tolerance). The Jalapenos were FRESH (i.e. bright green instead of dark green) and I think the pizza put on too much spice just for the sake of putting on too much spice. But, whatevz, I'm just sayin' that to compensate for my moment of spice-weakness.
Get cheaper, and I'll be forever loyal. Until then, this is a once-a-quarter luxury. And I don't think that's such a bad thing.
