“our first visit was average. our second visit made this a destination we will be returning to regularly. It was our first day out after the snowstorm hit and we decided to get Pizza Inn again even though we weren't thrilled with our first visit. All of the food was delicious, fresh, and the quality was great! Our server Ellen never let our drinks get empty, checked on us often, and brought the special treat dessert pizza my 7 year old had been waiting on directly to us at the table. The manager Carson fixed the machine at the arcade we wanted to play, had complete respect and cooperation from their staff and happily listened and agreed when I raved about our server. We WILL be back, probably several times a month. That is entirely due to our second visit and how well everyone worked together to create a great environment. I have a 7 year old and a 3 month old. This restaurant was clean, attentive, well managed and delicious and I am grateful to have found a local place I can enjoy family dinners out at in my new town. Shout out to Carson and Ellen!“

Everyone’s food was fresh and tasted awesome. Huge shout out to our waitress, Bianca, she went out of her way to make our experience great, she was an exceptional waitress!!“

“I usually order the Chicken Bowtie Festival But with angel hair pasta. This dish has a creamy Asiago cheese sauce with chicken tomatoes and onions. Very good. Highly recommend“

“We called Monday to see if they would be open for dinner as my stepmother has been placed in hospice and this is her favorite place to eat. He said they were closing at 4:00 pm which was too quick for us to get there, and upon hearing that he offered to stay open until 5:00 so we could get there. When we arrived at 4:30 they treated us like family from the moment we arrived until we left. They made her last experience there amazing and were sure to make sure she had everything she wanted and needed. To say it was amazing would not do it justice for how special they made us feel here. The food was absolutely amazing, the service was second to none and the attitude and compassion made our hearts so full we were overwhelmed. The owner and his wife deserve to have as much business as they could possibly handle and want, people like them are very hard to find these days but when you do they deserve to be supported. You won’t regret your decision to have a meal here on any level, give them a try and experience what it’s like to be treated with gratitude and respect from people that have wonderful souls and truly appreciate your business. Thank you from the deepest part of our hearts, we will never forget this act of kindness.“
