Garlic shrimp appetizer and fried calamari are great. Wine quality needs improvement. Some entree sauces watery. Soup unremarkable. Staff typically does not inquire how bill is being divided up. Iâve been there several times with a group of women and given one check for the group. Please have your staff inquire about billing at the beginning of the visit.

The approximately 2000 Christmas stars and decorations are hung from the ceiling. It gives the restaurant a special atmosphere along with the other decorations. We arrived early and had a chance to talk to the waitress. She had hung quite a few of the decorations. When we left the place was crowded with families and other patrons.

We ordered from here over the summer, kinda desperate for pizza and had a HUGE surprise! Idk what changed, but in the last 4 mo., including tonight, our food has been GREAT! We even changed it up from sandwiches to chix strips- they have out done themselves!! Their employees are very friendly and delivery is always early than expected! We tried thick tonight for the first time- totally excellent! I'm all for giving a place a second chance- glad I did!!

Celebrating 50 years. I can't believe nobody has reviewed this place previously. The pizza is ridiculously good.

favorite local pizza by far. Family run, friendly service, always consistant. Pizza, italian hamburgers, salads, pasta - all fantastic. Smaller kitchen so they can't cook in large batches so you my wait for your pizza but it is worth the wait. Call ahead and order to be ready when you get there.

This is one of the few restaurants open on a Sunday night. The waitress was very courteous and asked us from time to time if we needed refills, which are not free. We could only pay with cash. Credit and debit cards were not accepted. The food did take a while. We had pizza. The toppings and sauce was delicious. The crust was not as good as I have had other places. We sat at a booth near a window. The window and screen was so dirty that we could barely see outside. We would like to come back but now we know what to expect. Again the staff was very friendly and pleasant.
