My only complaint is that they aren't open on Sundays. Will accommodate for dietary restrictions when possible.

While it may be considered typical of American pizza, it fell short of my expectations. Overall, I would rate the food a 3 out of 5.

Food is prepared directly when you order. That combination is hard to find. I typically go here for different versions of their gyros. They are all excellent!

I get the feeling they are not making much profit when selling their enormous steak and cheese subs. Despite that, this place is fantastic. The subs are amazing and generous, the pizza is delicious, and the staff is friendly. Everyone enjoys dining here.

We got the store's namesake The Half Shell Pizza and it was incredibly loaded with quality veggies and flavors on a medium thickness crust. The sauce was out of this world and the cheese was high quality. The mom and pop owners are great too! A very friendly couple that obviously care about the quality of their ingredients and the happiness of their customers. Highly recommended for locals and out of towners looking for a quick bite.

I really enjoyed my steak and cheese on a wheat wrap, and I was pleasantly surprised they offered that option, which made my choice much easier. The Buffalo chicken club sandwich was delicious, and the salad with chicken was also quite tasty. The service was outstanding, with friendly staff and quick service. The restaurant has a wide variety of calzones and pizzas, making it easy to find something you'll love.

It was not enjoyable at all. I would recommend trying a different restaurant instead.
