$13 for 2 slices of pizza and a drink. I guess if you do business in the center of a college town you can charge crazy prices for pizza. But the place was clean the customer service was fast and the servers very friendly. Just way overpriced. More

Pizza was the best I've ever had! From dinning out or making it myself. But the wing were to saucy for my preference, but still great and a bit spicy! Also my sibling who is autistic was playing his favorite video loudly but no one(customer or staff) made a fuss! Love this place. Definitely coming back! More

The spinach tortellini soup that I had here was very delicious. It was a little strong in flavor and I had to ask for a little extra bread to soak it up, but it was still good. I will definitely come back here again. More

We placed an order on Sunday the 4th of May for pick up right as they opened up. We were told a half hour. We left our house and arrived 10 minutes early. The place was booming! The employees were wonderful. They had seven other pizzas along with ours coming out of the ovens. Fantastic place!!! More

Although the food was good. I've never had such a cheese-less calzone! Literally almost no cheese in it. And flat! I've always had calzones that were full and tall with cheese. We actually ended up with a spare as 1 broke boxing it. … More

I had a great first experience here! I ordered a slice of mushroom pizza. It wasn’t too expensive for the quality of pizza! The toppings were great! The sauce was good. It was not too crispy and not too soft! It was just right! You can fold the pizza in half without it breaking at all! The taste was spot on! More
