I tried working here during training the cook got irritated when I didn't know 1 ingredient out of hundreds and then told me they had another trainee to test out when I was originally told I was their only applicant 2 days later I'm having to come pick up a paycheck for $100 for working 2 days at a place that has no patience the only problematic person is the douchebag cook who has no patience and likes nobody I will never eat here nor ever try working here againParking: the parking is 2-3 spots in the front of the placw and the remaining parking lot is behind the restaurant

Disappointing. Ordered mussels, margaritas pizza and salad to go.Mussels were great but toast was left out. Margarita pizza had no basil or tomatoes on it. Basically a cheese pizza.

The food quailty was out if this world. We ordered 3 appetizers and a salad. The two of us were filled.

Came in today to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Last time we came they did not have pizza even though they are a woodfired pizza restaurant. We thought we would give them another chance and came in for lunch. The waitress informed us they did not have pizza , as I was watching the pizza chef making pizza. The table across from us got pizza for lunch. Evidently the chef threatened to walk out if he had to make more pizza. The waitress was very apologetic and nice and said we do have entrées. My wife ordered lasagna and then the waitress came back and said we do not have lasagna. It was at that time that we left. How can you be a woodfired pizza restaurant and not have woodfired pizza? How can you tell customers you don’t have pizza when they are watching the chef make the pizza and watching the table next to you get pizza? I will never go here again.

The loaded potato soup was delicious!?? Liked the side of sauteed fresh green beans ?. They were nicely seasoned ?. But by far the best were the desserts ?. My husband had a cannoli and I had the big 3 flavored ice cream scoop dipped in chocolate (forgot what it was called, lol). They both were great ?.

Went here for dinner on a Friday night. We haven't been in years because it has always been hit or miss with us at this place. But today we decided that it's been a while so we will give it another go. Walked in and only 3 table with guest. We decide to sit at the bar. We noticed that they were going to have a large party that was already set up(about 30 or so). Spoke with bartender and she said that they should be arriving in the next 30 minutes.. we placed our order and had our drinks.. food came out about 20-25 minutes later, which was a little long for a salad and an appetizer, but we were in no rush... Then the large party came in and all resources went to the party.. bartender, food runners, 4 servers. For everyone else that was it.. service disappeared. No drink refills, empty plates sat in front of us for a solid 20 minutes, and it took forever to get check to get out of there. Overall food was average for a salad and and side of bruschetta. Very pricey for a what was given. Service was average at best.. We decided that we most likely won't go back, better places with better food and better prices downtown Sorry.....

The pizza taste exactly like the pizza I had in Italy! It was so good! I'm definitely going back again. Too bad the price of a pizza is twice as much as in italy tho.....Parking: Park across the street

Alyssa is the shining star of this restaurant. I have never met a more pleasant and attentive server. She is the hardest working restaurant worker I have ever encountered. She is a joy to those she serves. Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, this restaurant stopped serving their famous waffle fries and their artichoke dip! That was a huge mistake. That was one of the reasons many people come here. You will have to go to another place to find those appetizers. Most people have appetizers before pizza. Sad that happened. Their brick oven pizza is probably the best in town tho. The ambiance is one of an old Italian village. It's nice.

Ownership has changed for this restaurant and their online pricing doesn't reflect actual pricing. The new owners have upped prices and are unable to update the website because it belongs to the previous owners and they don't have access to it is what I was told.Prices are about $3 more expensive per dish. $27 for chicken fettuccine Alfredo is too much!For those who choose to dine here, I hope the food tastes good for the price otherwise that would just be adding insult to injury.

We got waffle fries, carnivore pizza, and fettuccine alfredo with chicken. The two stars in this review are for the service, the fries, and the speed of food delivery. Honestly, though, I would prefer to wait a bit longer for alfredo sauce that tastes like parmesan cheese. The alfredo I make at home for my kids is far superior; four ingredients: butter, flour, cream/milk, parmesan. This alfredo sauce tasted limp and bland. Pizza: meh. The fact it’s wood-fired is a nice touch, but the sauce leaves much to be desired. The toppings are high-quality, which is a shame, as they are relegated to reside upon such a mediocre bed ?. I would describe this place as “ok” if asked. Not in a hurry to come back.
