Fresh! Fresh! Fresh! I’ve been passing by this place for years. Finally, we stopped and gave it a try. The best thing we did in quite some time. From the lunch specials to the rest of their menu, everything is freshly made as you watch. Family owned and operated for over 25+ years with a wide variety of, Italian dishes, sandwiches and pizza. Simply a great experience with a warm friendly staff. Parking in front lot shared with other stores but ample. Dine in or take-out, We’ve been back since our first visit and it’s now on our list of favorites. Clean, Fresh, Friendly, Variety, a true familia business. Our Pick of the year 2023!!!

I used to visit all the time prior to Covid, but then time got away from you. Stopped back in the other day, and funny enough, it felt like going home. Simple but tasty menu, caught up with the owner and shared a smile and conversation. If you are into supporting small businesses, please stop in and say hello. You won’t be disappointed.

Pizza was thin, ample toppings but sauce wasn’t particularly flavorful. Added hot sauce to give it a kick. Will try the italian food here next time but not my go to for pizza.

We ordered 2 pizzas. The mushroom pizza barely had any mushrooms on it at all. Pizzas were pretty basic for what they charge. Honestly, I think Little Caesars pizza is better quality for the price. The garlic knots were good.

I buy pizza here for my family every other week. It can be a bit expensive, but it’s worth it to make my family happy. The Jumbo size is the perfect balance between a getting a bigger pizza without getting too much grease. I absolutely love their crispy bacon bits!

Charles Landis
Surprisingly good. All 3 of our pasta dishes: lasagna, shrimp scampi, fettuccine Alfredo were delicious. The salad was fresh and good. The garlic bread was a little plain but still tasty (the bread was like a hot dog bun, really soft). We’ll definitely go back and try more stuff.
