Ordered delivery and this had to be the worst pizza I ever had. I ordered a Pizza Bianca, it had no garlic in it like advertised, and had tomato sauce. To top it off the pizza was the most soggiest I’ve ever had, with no flavor to it at all. You can get better pizza literally anywhere else, I’d take freezer pizza over this place.

When you first walk in, the place has a peculiar smell that’s a bit off-putting. Unfortunately, the garlic knots and pizza were burnt, which was really disappointing. The saving grace was our waitress—she was very nice and attentive, and that’s the only reason I’m giving this more than one star.

This place is awful!! I ordered food from them yesturday and now i have been sick throwing up ever since i ate their food! I will never eat at this place again! I spent over $100 to be sick. The place is run down and it looks like it should be cleaned. If i didnt order it and payed for it before i went there i would have never gotten food from them!! Everyone beware. This place is gross. Im so sick!!

Don’t know why people complain about them selling slices which they are widely known for for only selling pies , they do offer a personal pie …. As I learned it’s impossible to sell coal fire slice

I’ve been twice at this location , both times looks empty , heavy smell of fire ..to a point of feeling nauseous , it seems they don’t have an adequate ventilation system.The dishes were dirty , heavy grease and sauce stains , same with the utensils. Food was decent , nothing amazing , just decent . Not cheap ….

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS PLACE!
VERY SHADY!
ORDERED 2 PIES ONLINE FOR PICKUP AT 1:45PM, AND WHEN I GOT THERE THE PLACE WAS CLOSED. I CALLED ONLY TO BE TOLD THEIR OVEN WAS NOT WORKING, TO COME BACK AT 4PM. I TOLD THEM , NO THANKS AND ASKED THEM TO CANCEL THE ORDER. THEY SAID NO NEED TO CANCEL AS IT WILL NOT POST. A FEW DAYS LAYER IT POSTED. I CALLED AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT IF WE ORDERED IT ONLINE ON THEIR WEBSITE. BS! DISPUTED IT WITH MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY. NEVER AGAIN! BEWARE OF THIS SHADY PLACE!!

Not worth it at all. Paid $40 for a personal pizza and “garlic knots” which was just bread smeared with garlic sauce. Save yourself the money.

Don't bother. They don't have slices. I mean, that's the most basic function a pizzeria needs to do. Instead, they sell personal pies for 16 bucks. So that makes what should be a 5 buck meal into 3x as much. The pizza was not very good either. I'll never go back.

Disappointing Experience
I was really looking forward to trying this place, but I left pretty disappointed. The personal pizza I ordered was burnt, which really ruined the flavor. On top of that, it cost $28—for a single personal-sized pizza! That price would be steep even if the quality matched it, but unfortunately, it didn’t. Not worth the money 👎

Exceptional staff!!! food is amazing accommodating even after having a party of 70 they were more than willing to serve us a five out of five. The restaurant is open Tuesday through Sunday 12 to 10 love the cobra oven pizza and the Gramaldi house salad. They added new specialties to the Menu a special thanks to the servers Rose and Vinnie for the amazing service. Thank you
