“Our waitress Sophie was awesome!“

“My wife went back home to visit her family in Michigan for a couple days and while there she went out for dinner with her college friends to celebrate having our first daughter. She was expecting a great night out with her friends however the staff wouldn’t serve her drinks because they “couldn’t verify she was of age” even though she showed them her ID of 24 years of age. This ruined her night out with friends and forced them to go somewhere else to have an enjoyable night out. Very disappointing with how the staff handled this situation.“

“I placed an order for delivery today and was given an estimated delivery time of an hour and 15 minutes. My order was delivered in 29 minutes. In this weather. Awesome service! Awesome pizza!“

“The best Italian food in West Michigan, and at a great price. Love this place.“

“Five stars! We ended a week of camping with a vehicle delay on our way home and stopped for lunch at Big Bob’s while my husband took the truck to get fixed. First of all, the food was amazing (our son said the deep dish was better than Giordano’s). But more importantly, Rob and his staff took were beyond hospitable to our 3 kids and I as we spent the next 5 hours utilizing their Uno cards, Connect Four and enjoying their complementary popcorn. If you’re ever in the Grand Rapids area we highly recommend giving them a try. We’ll definitely be back next time we come through Grand Rapids.“

“My go to spot!! Best staff around!!!“

“Ordered online was a little confusing but I still did 5 stars because when I went in they explained it and are super nice about it! I didn’t get her name but I was so grateful for her and the food was hot and ready when she said it would be! Thanks for a great experience!“

“We ordered a medium pizza. Five veggie a one meet. They were polite, fast and the pizza was really loaded. We haven’t had a pizza this good ever The was very cheap for what you get Eat pizzas , get a Russo’s pizza or don’t eat pizza at all“

“Been trying to find a good pizza in the area for over 6 months and I finally found it. Great flavor, nice customer service, and fast delivery. Will be ordering from here again!“

“vary friendly staff and great service!!“

“OMIGOSH. The best pizza and a community favorite. Their garlic bites are a family favorite; covered with Parmesan cheese and garlic butter, they are scrumptious! The pizza is one of our favorites in West Michigan.Owned by a Jenison Alumni makes it even better. Truly a community staple.No place to eat inside Palermo's, but that doesn't even affect the 5-star eating for us.(Seasonally, there is a delicious ice cream shop next door with tables outside (Frosty Treat; another delicious community staple).)“

“Food was awesome and the atmosphere is nice“

“Had a slice and it was amazing. Highly recommend“

“Great experience at the party room for a baby shower! Working with Keli was amazing. She was so accomidating and very helpful. Our server Casey was friendly and did a great job keeping the demanding ladies happy. The food was hot and delicious. Served was a buffet of appetizers, wings, meatballs, dunkers, spinich and artichoke dip, and brushette no one left hungry, and a good time was had by all!!“

“Very good 👍 Food!“

“Our baseball team enjoyed the VERY large and delicious 24” pizza last evening for a Christmas surprise. Delivered, on time, and tasted great! Thanks.“

“We had an awesome time watching football and eating great food at Florentines. You have a good view no matter where you sit. Our waitress, Ashanti, really knew the menu well and made specific recommendations for us. We will be back!“

“Their New York style pizza crust was a pretty good take on NY pizza, but the rest of the pie was not NY. I am not from NY but have spent my share of time on nybpizza quests in all 5 boros. This pie way too much of the mozzarella they brag about that was loaded on a sauce that has ZERO to do with the basil/ fennel sweetness of a NY pie. To serve a NY pie, you can't use a detroit sauce and it is essential to use a blend of cheeses instead of overdoing the mozzarella to the point of being the rubbery schmotz we received. Place was clean, phone order was efficient and our pies were ready when we arrived. As for detroit style pizza?... it's not my thing. In a pinch I would go to a jets again for cleanliness, service, and great attitude... but the food is not my fave“

“The BEST customer service I believe I’ve ever experienced. They definitely know how to take care of their customers. The food was hot and delicious too!“

“We have ordered from this Jets for the last 10 years and they have never gotten our order wrong. We often make small changes (add this topping, leave this one off) and add extra ranch or other sauces to our order. They get it right EVERY SINGLE TIME. Whoever is running this Jet’s store is doing a fabulous job and has A+ employees.“

“Food is good BUT when you get it delivered, you NEVER get the sauce on the side that you pay for. How hard is it to double check every order? 😑“

“This particular location, like many others this winter, is very, very cold in the dining room (which was fairly clean, but clearly not used often).

We came in for lunch and got some slices to go. They were hot and fresh and absolutely delicious. No fountain drinks, but bottled pop available.

Service was great and friendly. Will definitely come back.

Parking: The bathroom needs a key from the staff to get into, but considering the high traffic area/location, I think it also helps keep the restrooms in clean condition.“
