“This review is based on a to go order. I called ahead and gave an hour and 15 minute notice on when I would be in for pick up. I got there exactly on time, and the pizza order was ready. I notice inside the restaurant was clean. Employees seemed friendly. I paid and took the order out to car. I can never wait and like to try pizza while still hot. I took a slice in the parking lot and all the cheese slid off.. humm... tried another while gripping the cheese this time. The undercarriage of the pizza is not crisp, however the crust has a nice snap. Dough tasted good. The sauce is a thick dark red sauce with a good tomato flavor, they apply it quite heavy. The cheese was thick, slightly oily, and had a bit too much of a salty taste for me. The breadsticks (3 in an order) were good. The cheese sauce is a dark yellow and reminds me of cheap canned cheese sauce.

All in all, the pizza was pretty good. Good flavor, heavy sauce (may request light sauce if you don't like heavy sauce) cheese is thick and a bit salty. Breadsticks were good, cheese sauce was not for me. I would not be opposed to visiting again when in area (Linton).

Update 2026: I came back and ordered the tenderloin with fries. This breaded pork tenderloin really hits the mark. The pork flavor stands out on its own—juicy, fresh, and not hidden behind heavy seasoning. The breading is light and crispy with just the right amount of seasoning to complement the meat without overpowering it. Simple, well-executed, and exactly what a good tenderloin should be. Definitely one I’d order again.“
