I had the bruschetta to start which was very tasty. I ordered a custom pizza that was pretty good! There are lots of free topping options which is awesome. The service wasn’t great, I have to say. I’m visiting from out of town so I’m not sure if this is a regular issue or not. But all in all a good dinner spot.

After a fun day in Cleveland, we decided to go eat here. We have been here a couple times before, but this is the first for our kids. We ordered a 1/2 sheet and it was unbelievable.
July 2024
Went on a random weeknight before a show at the music box Supper Club and the place was basically empty so the service was good but the food was mediocre I'll have to try it again in update if I feel like it deserves any better
