Reviews
The parking store-front may be difficult but plenty of other places to park at surrounding businesses. Staff is friendly but hard at work when not with a customer. Good prices for portions and short wait times. I would recommend calling ahead or ordering through Slice beforehand as in-store order wait times may very. They seem to be super busy on Fridays/Saturdays so I would also recommend calling ahead and scheduling a pick-up/delivery time on those days. I usually order for delivery and my order is usually at least on time, if not, ahead of schedule!
Also, if an order is incorrect/missing items, they replace and even deliver them free of charge! This is a fantastic small business that cares about their customers and I could not recommend them enough!
If you are looking for nostalgia, this place has it. Old fixtures, tiny space, cute counter, real cash register. If you are looking for friendliness, that’s hit or miss. Ok, mostly miss. The guy who answered the phone by screaming “Hello!” at me and asked me what type of hoagies I wanted after I had said I wanted the “pietro’s special hoagie” as named on Google was not friendly or personable. Maybe that’s not really the name of the hoagie? When I arrived to pick up my order, there were 5 people standing on the other side of the counter and one person sitting at the counter. They all stared blankly at me when I walked in. I smiled and said “How you guys doing?” Not a single person answered and every one of them looked away. I stood there a second longer than was comfortable just to see if anyone was going to respond, purely for my own confirmation that this was weird I continued over to the opposite counter to pick up my food and the man said he was just finishing it up. Yes! Someone spoke to me!! While I waited, another man came in through a door and asked me if he could help me. He rang me up and asked cash or card. $17.10. Which brings me to another point… if you are ordering based on their Google menu (and prices) take it with a grain of salt. The menu listed says cheese fries are $4.99, hoagie $6.99. $12+tax. Either prices are incorrect or I paid $5 in tax. He gave me my change (I prefer to use cash for small business), which I plunked down in the tip container. He watched me unusually intently and then thanked me for coming in. I think I made a friend.
Now on to the food. The hoagie zipped me back to 1999. The bun was identical to the ones we used at my old shop. It was flat, floppy and just dripping with nostalgia. Everything I hoped for. The taste was ok. However, I’m not going to knock them for it because I’m going through chemo and that has changed my tastebuds for the time being. The fries were seriously overcooked. I ate the edible ones. The fries left in the picture got trashed. The iPhone makes them look better in the pic than they are.
I’m undecided on whether to return. I’m not one to have food delivered when I can drive 2 minutes and pick up myself. And with so many raving about the pizza, I maybe should have tried that first. Atleast I definitely know now to not expect much in the way of conversation when I walk in.
They do run on time when they provide you a time for pickup.
The pizza sauce is good, the crust is different from a few other local pizza places but not in a bad way, maybe more CHEWY?
The cheese is tasty.
But, the hoagies are lacking. The meatballs made the bread really soggy and were smashed and we picked up on time, so not sure why, but not a fan, of the meatball hoagie here.
The other is a veggie hoagie.
I’ve had some stacked veggie hoagies and this one was not one of those, it was missing content (like eggplant or some heartier veggies)as it was more lettuce and tomato, and there was not much else on it, so no I would not get it again.
