“We wanted to give a shout out to Daniella, on Friday Aug 30, who provided outstanding service. She was professional, communicative, and kind. She ensured our meal was gluten-free (had to send something back, spotted the issue before we could even say anything). Set us up with a free bag of chips and salsa on our way out the door. Did not make us feel nickeled and dimed (as many restaurants are doing these days). The manager was great also. She was personally greeting all the guests. Great team over there! Not to mention the food was great. Daniella is the reason we left 5 stars! Get this gal into management!

Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free taco salad.“

“This lovely family-owned restaurant is AMAZING!! Not only is the food very delicious and fresh (as well as made with passion), the atmosphere and staff were absolutely wonderful.

I came in alone and sat in the bar area. I was able to converse with the mother and son, and they are such lovely people.

I had a personal pizza, and it was VERY good. The owner was also kind enough to let me sample a piece of their gyro meat, and that was also extremely delicious!! It's better than Greek restaurants I've eaten at it the past!

Overall, 5/5 in every category. This is now my pizzeria of choice.“

“Absolutly amazing food and service. I had the chicken piccata with shrimp. It was to die for. The shrimp was perfectly soft, i swear it must have been breast fed or something. We had a server named mason. He was hilarious and super charismatic. He made the whole experience a lot better. He made me a mocktail from scratch. It was a strawberry blueberry drink with lemon juice and rosemarry and mint. It had a beautiful frozen lemon rose ice cub. I also had the mascarprone for desert it was perfectly balanced of sweet and chocolatly. The place was absolutly stunning and such pretty set up. Even my youngest cousin (4 year old) had lots of fun here and got to have great food too. Literally everything i had was super delious.

“Overall, the restaurant was amazing. The chicken was cooked a perfection with the right amount of robust flavors. We ordered the family platter with the lemon and herb sauce. We also got three large sides, which was the fries, garlic bread, and corn on the cob. We also ordered the rainbow bowl with a side of Mac and cheese. The mac & cheese was amazing and so was the rainbow bowl. It was like a burrito bowl, but much better as well as healthier in my opinion. The corn was very nice and sweet and grilled, but the other sides could also be grilled better. The garlic bread had the best crunchiness along with the fries and was cooked to perfection. The chicken was grilled with the best colored and flavorful chicken. They also give bottles of sauces to add flavors, which is the best idea a restaurant could do because the food became so much better along with this. The sauce complemented everything from the garlic bread to the chicken. We also got the bottomless fountain drinks along with the strawberry and mint lemonade, which tasted amazing. The atmosphere of the whole restaurant was pretty solid and looked like a very upscale restaurant in my favorite thing along with it was there was a sink on the outside where people can wash their hands because eating chicken does get messy and that was very thoughtful and very helpful. The workers there were very nice and they were attentive, and they always helped us and checked in on us too. Overall, this restaurant deserves a 4.37/5 and I would highly recommend this place.“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Pizza Boli's location in Lancaster, PA, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by their friendly staff, who went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience. The customer service was top-notch!

The menu features an incredible variety of delicious options, and I was thrilled to see that the Gainesville location offers the same amazing menu. The quality of the food is outstanding — every bite of my pizza was bursting with flavor, and you can tell they use the freshest ingredients. Plus, they have a fantastic selection of beverages to complement your meal.

Whether you're in Lancaster or Gainesville, Pizza Boli's delivers the same incredible experience. I highly recommend both locations for anyone looking for great pizza and superb service. I can't wait to come back for more! 🍕✨“

“Did NOT disappoint! Enjoyed a tasty meal at La Finca this weekend. Staff was friendly and attentive. Most important, the food was delish. Salsa was smooth--just a hint of heat and not too much cilantro. Beef and chicken flautas offered a great crunch and tender meat filling. Chile relleno, filled with melty cheesy goodness, was a hit! The skinny margarita was as you'd expect--good, but not quite the punch of a regular margarita. The mango-habanero shrimp was a beautiful presentation and the sauce packed a great, sweet kick--minus a star for shrimp being really over cooked (easy fix for the kitchen, though). Sounds like the new management team is off to a promising start and we can't wait to visit again!“

Also, whomever thought it a good idea to plug in a dehumidifier AND a TV AND a bunch of other things into a single surge protector... you might not want to do that.“
