I later learned that they have another location, but it only offers carry-out. Given that we have a special needs child, carry-out wasn’t a feasible option; I really wanted to sit down and enjoy a meal with my family. I spent about $40 on fuel for a meal that didn’t happen. I checked online for their hours and found nothing indicating a different location, and Facebook was down today for some reason. I’m just feeling really frustrated that this kind of experience seems to be becoming the norm. People look up hours of operation for a reason—if you can’t honor them, don’t list them. It’s such a shame because I’ve loved their pizza, and their calzones have been a favorite from the very start.

Best pizza in the Van Wert area, and it isn't even close. read more Best pizza in the Van Wert area, and it isn't even close.

The crust was good and the toppings was ok. The delivery took a while but the guy was nice and polite.

Unfortunately, they did not provide any, so I was only able to eat my sandwich and couldn't enjoy my pasta and salad. Providing to-go silverware should be standard for meals that include salad and pasta.

Cleanliness- found the location to be very clean. (did not check the lavatory)Atmosphere- Simple plain. Aged and in need of some updating. No outstanding theme... read more Cleanliness- found the location to be very clean. (did not check the lavatory)Atmosphere- Simple plain. Aged and in need of some updating. No outstanding theme (not a bad thing)Food- we had the buffet, and found it to be pretty good and diverse with salad, different pizzas, and pastas.Suggestion- try to expand the salad bar with more veggies such as cucumber, onion, and add cottage cheese.Service- perfect! The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and timely.
