great hidden treasure...

by teknodogg at Citysearch

found while walking toward hobby lobby...and decided to stop in for a quick lunch

upon ordering the very nice server told me about the lunch special...and I placed my order

spaghetti w/ meatballs and it comes with free bread, salad, and a soft drink with refills

wow...what a deal and the portion was huge I had to take some home.

their meatball was very tender and flavorful, and the spaghetti was cooked just right, wasn't under or over cooked. the salad had a very full tasting house vinagerette dressing with banana pepper (which i love)

and a huge cup for soft drinks which I didn't need any refills at all.

it was a very good experience I would give it a 5 star but the deco is very fast food ish and family styled

but the food was fantastic and the people/server there were wonderfully nice and helpful to me

I'd definitely go back there again

• Pros: great price, great portion, fantastic spaghetti w/ meatballs, very helpful and nice servers
• Cons: hidden location, deco can use some updating

Comfort food and comfortable prices at this small, no-frills pizzeria and sub shop hidden in a strip mall.

In Short
Plastic blinds, burgundy vinyl tablecloths and metal paper napkin holders mean people come here to chow, not dine. Patrons order by the slice or pie, thin or thick crust. The Everything Slice feeds the most voracious appetite, topped with pepperoni, hamburger, sausage, ham and three veggies. Generous ladling creates stew-like lasagna, with ribbons of pasta swimming through meaty, chewy cheese sauce. The menu also offers fish, veal and cold or hot subs.

Plenty of Flavor

The pizza here is great. It's authentic and flavorful. The only other thing I have tried is the ravioli. Also, very good. I only wish the portions were larger. One order of ravioli won't fill you up. But the pizza? It will fill you up and make you come back here again and again. Service has improved from when they first opened to the point that it is VERY good. Ambience is more like a diner than a pizza place, but that's okay. It's still comfortable. And they always keep that soda machine in top condition, because the fountain drinks are pure, clean, and ice cold. Check into this place. You'll love their pizza!

• Pros: Pizza, Fountain Drinks, Service
• Cons: Location hidden, Ambience
