Slow service. All I could taste was cheese. I ordered the pesto pizza with chicken. Cheese. Cheese. And oh yeah, cheese. Haven’t had the pasta yet. More to come.

The service was excellent and the food was so delicious. I got a bacon chicken ranch pizza, yummy! My 10 month old son was flirting with the staff and got a complimentary breadstick! Highly recommend!

My boyfriend and I are new to the area as we recently moved from Iowa City and stopped in for lunch one day. The service was quick and the food was great (we both ordered the 5th avenue sandwich with pasta salad side–SO good). We chatted it up with who I assume was the wife of the owner although I’m not sure. She was super friendly and eager to get to know us. We will definitely be back!

We went for pizza. Were going to order 2 medium 1 toppings which was going to run $13 – $14 each. Waitress did not mention any special so I am glad I thought of it. Ordered 2 medium 2 topping pizzas for around $9.98 each. My crust was overdone, somewhat burnt, and both pizzas were tasteless. Some of the worse pizza we have ever had. I mentioned at check-out that we weren’t happy with our food, but no indication that the hostess cared. This place was a bust for us. Not sure how they stay in business with Pagliai’s Pizza so near them.

Surprisingly really good pizza for a small town Italian restaurant. Glad we made the trip. Plan on coming back sometime. I think I’m in Love with the chicken bacon Alfredo pizza… also awesome crust!

This was a great, local place. The food was plentiful and tasty. I had the Italian Beef. It doesn’t have a lot of flavor, but was perfectly toasted. Great as a leftover as I couldn’t eat it all. We’ll stop again.
