great service, bad pizza

by mmm500 at Citysearch

If you like soggy pizza crust witthout any texture, you will love this pizza. How on earth this place was voted best pizza I will never understand. This was so bad I couldn't eat more than one slice. (Normally I am of the view that even bad pizza is pretty edible because it's hot and has melted cheese.) The really sad thing is that when you read the menu, you get the impression that you are in for something special. But starting with the crust, the overseasoned sauce, etc...it is just a bad use of good food. I was very disappointed given the great reviews and obvious care taken to procure quality ingredients. The service was great, but I have no intention of returning.

Great Food. Great Service. Great Time.

A couple of co-workers and myself ventured to the Fireside Pies on Inwood & Lovers the other night basically just looking to get some good pizza. Having only been to the Henderson location before we did not know what to expect. Needless to say we were pleasantly surprised. This location is much larger so the wait seemed to go by much more quickly. The service was great! The waitresses are were all very nice, had great senses of humor and were sharp. We had at least three different girls (all blondes) approach us to make sure we were having a great time during the course of our meal. A little pushy on the "specials" for the night, but one of my colleagues actually ended up getting something they recommended. You can easily run up your check here, but overall it is worth it. Great atmosphere and a place where you can take your family, significant other or co-workers and still feel comfortable. A combination like that is very rare to find in Dallas these days.

Great Food, intimate atmosphere, wonderful service

I had never visited or heard of this place. I just took a chance - and I am glad I did. I want to extremely thank them for the hospitality and wonderful planning of my boyfriends 30th Birthday dinner we had at the restuarant. Everyone had a great time and they really enjoyed the food. It was everyones first time. The salad was the most talked about. His mother doesn't eat pizza in the states, but said it was great. It reminded her of the pizza she ate when she lived in Italy! Again, I cannot say enough how much I appreciated the staff. They were accommodating (for my last minute notice) and did a wonderful job - from the set up of the decor to making sure me and my party's needs were meet every minute we were there.

I would definitely recommend this small, tastful, great atmosphere eatery to anyone. I will be back.
