As a DoorDash driver, I had a really bad experience with the store, the pizza making guy was super rude to me when I asked him how long it will take. One of the worst stores to pick up from.

One word: amazing. First visit but I’ll return when in town. Great fresh food and very pleasant and attentive staff. For once, a server deserving of a tip

Do you pay these "local guides" for the positive reviews? I'm serious. I just bought the 16 inch pie yesterday. I asked for extra cheese and extra sauce. I took one bite and out loud I asked myself "what is wrong here?". I peeled back the paper thin toppings to reveal a crust with little specks of sauce. I could not even detect the flavor of any sauce. There was no extra cheese either. It was literally the worst tasting pizza I have ever had. Two pieces were all I could force down, the rest was tossed. When I called and asked to speak to the manager he responded that HE personally made that pizza and that he TRIED to accommodate me. I laughed and asked if I could send him a photo. The pizza was so bad that I won't risk the cost of another $32.00 to try it again! These pictures show the bits of sauce (supposedly extra sauce) and the ridiculously scant toppings which included "extra cheese" "double sausage", pepperoni and onion. BUYER BEWARE!

I come here often. The pizza is always of great comfort, and it tastes quite nice. The atmosphere is a wonderful drawback to the 80s, somewhat dim. Additionally, it has small tables, chairs, and bathrooms, but not too small. It used to have hippie beads in the doorway, but no more.

Authentic Greek and Turkish meals as well as your typical Italian meal choices. Wonderful desserts . The venue is great but not necessarily a date night out place. The emphasis here is on the remarkable food and huge menu.

I remember attending IU in 1973-77 and would always sit in the same booth and eat steins and an ice cold COKE. Staff is always friendly, owner is in the place and makes amazing Stromboli. I getIt every time and have for over. 50 years, and the amazing sweet bread n butter pickles on the side if requested. Free refills on soft drinks. Amazing place. The regular strom is not a BBQ strom so I cannot check the box below because the regular (original)) not listed. This restaurant is the rREAL DEAL, Is like an old friend .
Parking: The Mayor and the City “leaders” find it a smart move to close Kirkwood Avenue, which approx 20 business are affected this crazy idea, close off the street and make customers park in a lot and walk all the way to the restaurant. I know the restaurant has suffered greatly by this mot thought through decision and did not take the local business and their employees AND the customers into consideration . This restaurant is like family to all of us and lived here and family for 7 generations .
Wheelchair accessibility: If you can stop on the side street, with assistance….you can go down the sidewalk and into store but there are 2 sets of doors to go through
