We've eaten here multiple times and we are always super pleased and never disappointed. The double pepperoni pizza and chopped salad are our usual go-tos and we love both. They never get old!Coupled with the nice casual atmosphere & awesome service... it just has to be a regular haunt!
The pizza is amazing, When I’m in town we stop to eat here but this last visit will sadly be our last. The pizza was great, freshly prepared but it was boxed and you had to walk to a park half a block away to eat it. We were told somebody didn’t show up for their work shift, reason the dining room was closed. Interesting we saw three employees, last visit two employees were working and the dining room was open. Though the pizza was great it’s not worth the price, $35 for two medium pizzas if you can’t sit in the restaurant to eat it. Very expensive takeout pizza basically. The park as we sat down to eat the pizza had a huge pile of human waste three feet from the bench. Not how one wants to eat and enjoy a very expensive pizza. This location lost loyal customers who loved the pizza, guessing they also lost many others due to this practice.
Done with this place forever. I've been going to this place since 2019, and I've seen its quality go down continually. This place charges by topping, and they always try to short-change you by not putting enough of a topping. When I started going to this place, they had some of the best staff, but now many of the staff that cared have left, and the new employees never get enough training before they start making pizza. The current output of pizza is neither worth the price nor aesthetically pleasing. There are some exceptional employees here still, but I'm not able to predict their hours. If you're a visitor to Santa Monica or need someplace quick, then sure, check this place out and take a risk. But for a local or anyone that goes to this place more than once, you'll likely feel that they take you for granted and don't care. I held off leaving this review for a year because I remembered how much I loved this place in 2019 and 2020, but I've had enough. You've lost my business forever.
Visited yesterday evening. Terrible pizza and terrible service. The place was so dirty. Empty bins. Salad bar dirty was old vegetables and tomatoes all over the place. Arugula bin empty with few pieces of old rotten once in the bin. Employees very unfriendly!
The food was very good, but what makes me rate it for 2 stars was the customer service. My sister took a little longer to choose her pizza topping and the employee was so rude in rushing her. also I got to go back twice to get my order right even though I was trying to say thank you many times and they kept ignoringIn the end one of the pizzas crust was burnt
I used to come here often years ago when I lived in the area and it was always good. It’s been a year and something happened and it’s not the same place. The quality isn’t the same and they even lost my pizza and had to make a new one. I don’t know how that happens. Hopefully they can fix their issues.
Pizza is great but expensive. This time I went, my pizza’s cheese wasn’t melted all the way. I could also tell they did not want to serve us.
**UPDATE: Thank you for your reply and offer to make things right..BUT..I sent the email and never heard back from you. Were you serious? Still waiting to be impressedOrdered for delivery..a very sad, small, soggy, and not even warm pizza showed up. Barely more than individual size for $22. No thanks guys, first time and never again
The pizza here is pretty amazing here and the service is one of a kind. And the service staff her is pretty cool too.
Nice but not perfect
