Really delicious pizza- i got a vegan pie and my friend got one that was gluten free, but ridiculously expensive for a personal pizza pie with a few veggie toppings !

Haven't had much of an experience with this place, however, we ordered door dash thinking it would be an easy dinner. Our door dash order was apparently picked up by someone. When our door dash driver arrived at the restaurant, they told him the food was picked up, and they refused to remake the order while our driver was there. I work in the industry, and normally when a door dash, grub hub, uber eats, etc. driver picks up food they show the name of the order on their phone to confirm and then are given the corresponding order. It really wouldn't have been difficult to remake our order

Great vegan options when you're too lazy to cook and want something a little naughty, like a burger & fries!

Always great and a staple for my late night food cravings. Every pizza I've tried has been delicious and I've tried various appetizers or sandwiches/subs which have also been very good with generous portions.

K so for starters YES that size large salad is just for me and so is that loaf of bread which I'll regret tomorrow, my belly looks like I'm expecting after that meal too lol. This was honestly soooooooo good it hit every spot in my belly. I had Italian dressing with that fresco salad and garlic bread with marinara. They gave me some garlic knots which weren't tasty but who cares the rest was so good I honestly can say my belly is satisfied. They even packed it all cute too bad I'm a hungry beast and tare the bag up like a feen. I want to just say they could add more dressing
