My family has been ordering from here for at least 30 years. The food is so delicious! We mainly get pizza now and my favorite , a side of mouth watering meatballs ! Sit down , dine in hasn't been open for a while but that's ok just take your food home. ?

This is the restaurant I grew up at. We used to walk there as kids after school and get a slice of pizza. Then on Fridays my dad used to buy us pizza for dinner as a special treat. It was that real Italian thin crust yummiest!!! What was really special this time is that I hadn't been there since HS I'm now 53 & it was such a pleasure to see that the owners were there so I can see them? They were so sweet and still remembered me.

Panzarottis have been a family classic for over 30 years! They are an experience that you must try. Each one is specially crafted, so order ahead!

Extremely bad.
I ordered spaghetti with mushroom sauce which came with a salad. Now when i think ‘mushroom sauce’ i think of a sauce made from mushrooms, so i was truly surprised to find that their “mushroom sauce” is actually watery spaghetti DROWNING IN MARINARA, that happens to have sliced mushrooms in it. Ridiculous to call it a mushroom sauce and misleading. I never would’ve ordered a marinara if this dish had been properly labeled, as I dislike the sauce entirely.
Beyond that, the salad they gave me was absolutely dripping wet, as if they washed it and put into the container without spinning or drying. On the way home from the restaurant, the salad water was spilling out of the container. By the time I arrived home, i was sitting in a wet puddle of salad.
Finally, i suspect that the bread they gave me was USED. The inside surface of the sliced bread was wet and literally smelled like a meat sandwich, as if they took out the sandwich contents and served me the discarded bread. I do not eat meat and found this to be very disturbing.
The staff was very nice, but that doesn’t outweigh the very low food quality and how extremely disappointing this experience was.
I wouldn’t eat here again.

Vegetarian options: Ingredients are NOT clearly labeled. Be careful what you order as they are not vegetarian friendly whatsoever. They gave me used bread that clearly smelled of meat.

Don’t trust the websites deals as they are not valid and will not be honored in store. They wanted over $10 more than was listed and refused. Update their website when it’s misleading.

This is the worst service I've ever experienced. I've never been lied to about my food or what they will do to help their customers until today. Coming from the manager, don't know the name, the customer is apparently wrong because they've been in business for over 40 years. Although the food was still decent our first batch of barbecue-less chicken came cold.
Essentially they wanted to not replace our chicken. As of right now we are still waiting on it. The original time of order was 2 hours ago.
Had to make an edit now that my whiskey buzz wore off, how can they call that pizza? I seen someone make a comment about an over sized Lunchable. I'd take the Lunchables everytime. A pool of grease on one pizza that no one could stomach and a pizza for a kid that's just cheese and dough. Looking at this food makes me want to drink again. What a shame for $70.

Family owned and runned.Family atmosphere.Very good pizza, favorite is family size cheese and sausage and a bottle of pop for less than $20 pickup.Plenty of coupons on counter for this.Food is much better than outside of building . It is a sleeper in that if you don't taste it, you would never know how good it is. A real gem for good family pizza.

The pizza is reliably good, and very filling - just be careful when you order a combination pizza, they’ll charge you for each ingredient and it’s up to you to challenge the price when it ends up higher than what’s on the menu. Aside from that, it’s much better than the alternatives nearby
