We also had a house salad, which was decent and fresh. And we split ravioli in a fra diavlo sauce, which was quite tasty. Everything was freshand delicious. The service and staff were great. The place was clean and welcoming!

Im specifically talking about the short bald guy. On more ocassions than one, he hasbeen horribly rude to my family and we have been nothing but kind, loyal customers. He has such an attitude and everytime we goin there he takes it out on us. After our third bad interaction we had which included ignoring us when it was our turn to bewaited on and not responding with even so much as a grunt when we said thank you for the pizza, we decided we have had enough.Who treats their customers this way? This disgusting behavior seems specifically directed at certain customers too. We overheardthe same staff member being nice to others which made us feel even worse. Despite the pizza being really good, on principle weprobably won't eat here again. We've also told multiple people Pizzaolas staff is disrespectful and we suspect possibly racist.Such a shame but a business should honestly care more about disgruntled employees and being nice to their customers. Wonderingif anyone else had similar interactions? Please like this review if you have. I'm curious.

The waitress insisted it was charred. Charred is black and this was green. Will not be going back. Just glad Ihad already eaten my dinner bc when I saw that, I lost the rest of my appetite!
