Customer Reviews
We ordered chicken ( was over cooked) sides which were ok, large pizza was way below standards. Pricing out of these world almost $100. Won't be ordering from this place again. This place use to be a great place but not so much now.
We had a fun family gathering here and the staff was tremendous. We ordered lots of special pizzas and they all came out fast. We always enjoy it every time we come. Very clean and the staff is always so friendly.
Went today 2/8/26, never again, chicken was soo salty we could not eat it. Told they fried it in french fry oil by mistake. I call bs... empty plates not cleard from table, not busy at all, now I see why place was empty. won't be back. Knowing they made a mistake, made no effort to make it right, Kidneys HATES excessive salt !!! Surely will be in pain for more than a few days due to this dining experience. AI: Healthy kidneys filter excess sodium, but high salt intake damages them by increasing blood pressure and causing fluid retention, leading to chronic kidney disease (CKD). Adults should generally limit sodium to 2,300 mg daily (about 1 tsp), while those with kidney issues or hypertension should reduce this to 1,500–2,000 mg. Impact of High Salt on Kidneys Fluid Retention: Excess
Fantastic service and atmosphere. The establishment was well maintained. It was clean and the tables and chairs were nice and clean. The decorations were nice. The food was ok. At $23/person (tax and tips) is pretty pricey for limitrd pizza options and overcooked chicken. The salad bar was pretty impressive. Most of the lettuce seems old. But the rest were above the normal standard. I love they have various dressings available. The chicken were overcook, but the seasoning was nice. Juicer chicken would be perfect. The pizza options were limited. We were there at 415pm. Maybe it's the wrong time, however paying $16.99 for a salad bar and a couple pieces of chicken seems steep. Overall, it's a fun place to bring the kiddos. The service was outstanding, with friendly staff. Unless y
