They said no but offered to make a whole pie so she could have a slice for about $6. We were told to come in 20 minutes. I arrived exactly on time, but the pie had never been made. There was no explanation for the oversight. The slices they did have looked old and unappetizing. I recommend going to Galleria Pizza on Merrick Ave instead; they consistently serve great pizza.

My brother and I went there for pizza, but it felt eerily quiet inside, almost like a graveyard. The staff at the counter seemed to be uninterested in our presence, and there was no music or conversation among the three employees, who honestly looked like they might not get along. We felt so uncomfortable that we ended up asking for to-go boxes halfway through our meal and ate in my car while listening to Taylor Swift on the radio.
