I get it, keeping up with all the social media platforms now days can be challenging, but if you’re going to market yourself on google be sure to update your hours. It took 30 minutes to decide on a place to eat and 30 seconds for me to suggest to google that you are a seasonal restaurant still closed at the moment.

Great Wood Fired Pizza, super friendly staff, and passionately run by the owners - unfortunately in my experience, the hospital service has dropped

I’m not exaggerating when I say I had the worst pizza experience I’ve ever had yesterday when ordering at this location. Not only did they keep hanging up when we tried to order but when we finally did was told it would be 2 hours. When we got back to our house with the pizza we opened up the box and to my horror there layed this Limp excuse of a pizza. Almost no cheese on it and one of the pizzas were burnt. Had to drown it in barbecue just to eat it. Warning stay away from this place!

This is the best pizza anywhere near Lake Michigan. Very comfortable and the atmosphere is very Midwest. I grew up in the region but have moved to another state via the military. My time at Stop 50 Pizza was like being home again because of the atmosphere and all the wonderful trees surrounding it.

Pie was made to perfection. The serving size was small for 3, but it was delicious and left room for desert. Smaller outside area, but it was still nice to be able to sit outside during our visit. The server was fast and courteous. Would recommend ?

Everything about this pizza place was wonderful!! It was very loud inside, but it was super busy the evening we were there. There is a nice waiting area. We will definitely return!!

Did not order pizza. My order was intentional to evaluate overall quality: meatball appetizer, breadsticks, and house salad. Meatballs were the best part of my dining experience. The sliced baguette served with meatballs was stale. Marinara with breadsticks was cold, and the (pizza crust) breadsticks were ordinary at best. The salad portion was large, consisting of lettuce topped with sliced red onions and parmesan cheese, and cubed tomatoes on the side. Overall, the salad lacked crunch. All lettuce was wilted, as if dressed hours before serving. The atmosphere is quaint, which I often enjoy, but not equipped to manage the 30+ minutes waiting line for service or parking. I was seated on the front patio, which had a direct view of the wait line and a very sad barrier wall. Front end staff could turn phone ringer volume down. Given the demand, the flow at this restaurant would be better served by reservations and/or a take-out window. Given the poor quality of salad, I recommend better management. This business seems successful, but I found it entirely disappointing. Do not intend to return or recommend.

This little gem placed in a neighborhood was clearly popular and worth the 30 min wait. The website talks about their dough and importing flour from Italy. And the quality shows.Delicious pizza and highly recommend.

We found this place on accident. They have awesome pizza. We had their seasonal peach pizza special and a sausage one. They were delicious. They have a good beer selection, and their gelato was also good. The service was friendly. There was a bit of a wait but totally worth it. It is handmade, after all.

I don't usually give 5 stars. But our server was top notch! I didn't get his name but he was a real trooper. We had 8 kids and 5 adults with us and he got everything right. We were the July 28th at around 7pm maybe? We sat outside right by the front door if that helps.

Pizza was delicious! Unfortunately, our order for a family of 5 took over an hour - while we watched multiple families that were seated after us get their orders before.Our server realized the issue when he came over and told us our pizza was almost ready after he noticed us looking confused after seeing others served first.The main reason for the poor review, is they didn’t offer to rectify the solution by even offering a discount of any sort - but simply justifying their actions.I didn’t ask rudely, but let them know the issue we saw. Unfortunately, we will not be back.
