“Best pizza! Worst Salads! The salads are made up mostly of the ribs of lettuce. I'm guessing they use the good part of the lettuce for their grinders and such, and use the scrap ribs for salad. I've tried their salads numerous times thinking each time that I just happen to get a bad one the last time, but it never gets better. I'll order pizza, but no more salads.”
