Reviews
Tinos artisan pizza. I’m not mad, but I’m disappointed.
Pizza was bland. There was almost no sauce. Two slices and a bottle of… mole cola.. Cost me $10.40.
Good thing i asked for the extra sauce or i would’ve been even more unhappy.
The cup of sauce I got was pathetic and didn’t even last the two slices
Cheese was thin. Crust was burnt.
Positive things I can say:
The pizza had almost no grease. So if you like that… I guess enjoy.
Service was very good. And the building/seating area was comfortable.
Mole cola was good too.
I definitely couldn’t recommend this place in good faith. I’m gonna go to a pizza place and get a sloppy extra cheese pizza to counter act this experience.
When I saw that Tino’s had a separate over and gluten free pizza dough I had to give it a try.
I AM SO GLAD I DID.
The pizza was very good. The crust tasted like pizza crust. A little chewy but as someone that bakes GF bread that can happen. It is a side effect of the ingredients used to make GF dough.
I was very very happy with the pizza. I wish there was one closer to me.
Thank you so much for much for making good pizza that I can eat.
The only issue I had was afterwards. I looked at my cc purchases and saw that I was charged almost 150.00 more than my bill. I called and spoke to the manager Brittany who figured out that they must’ve missed a decimal when they typed the tip into the system. She gladly issued a refund and said it should be back in my account in 2-3 days.
Besides that, I think this spot is DEFINITELY worth going to.
There are both inside and outdoor seatings. All staffs are friendly, fast, and attentive. Parking right on the main street yet easy to park though. I love this place and definitely recommend it to everyone
When I called to give feedback, I spoke with the owner, Tino, who happened to be there. I explained how mushy the pasta was. His first response to me, and I promise I am not exaggerating, was, “Nobody’s perfect, are you?”
No, Tino, I am not perfect. You are correct that no one is. However, when you order something as basic as spaghetti and meatballs at a somewhat premium level restaurant, you do expect that the basics are done correctly. Yes, perfection is expected when it comes to something as simple as not overcooking pasta to the point where it becomes so mushy and unflavorful that it should not be served.
On another note, Tino, your next comment was that you have several locations, so you must be doing it correctly. I can think of countless restaurant chains with hundreds of locations that went out of business because of poor customer service.
When a customer calls with a very valid complaint to give feedback, let me offer a piece of advice of you care to listen with a humble heart.
Listen. Do not be dismissive in your response. Be humble and appreciate the fact that they chose your restaurant in the first place. Care that their experience did not live up to the standard THEY expected. Be appreciative that they took the time to provide feedback. Be kind in your response and explain that this is not the standard you aim to deliver. Make sure, in a sincere and caring way, that you apologize for the experience they had. Let them know you will immediately speak with the cook, find out what happened, and retrain where needed.
Tino, as an owner, which version makes you and your business look better and shows that you truly care about what happened? The one you gave me last night or the one I wrote? Which version shows you care about the reputation of your business? Which version shows you care about the customer who supports it? The response you gave me last night was dismissive, confrontational, and clearly uncaring. The response I outlined shows an owner who cares about their business, cares about a customer who had a poor experience, and wants to ensure that everyone in the future has the best dining experience possible. That should be the standard.
I truly wish you success. My small interaction will likely have almost no effect on your business as a whole, but moments like this are often the ones that quietly shape a restaurant’s reputation over time. Every customer interaction is an opportunity, either to reinforce trust or to lose it. I hope you receive this feedback with a humble heart and understand how differently this situation could have been handled. With a little empathy and care, this could have easily been turned from a negative experience into a positive one, leaving a customer feeling heard, respected, and willing to return. Those are the moments that build loyalty, strengthen a brand, and ultimately determine long term success.
Parked our bikes right in front, and there was no wait for a table.
We order a specialty Pizza Pie for 2
Service was great, atmosphere was nice.
Food was very good.
Will try something else on their menu next time
