Honestly I only come to this location for the free Dodger pizza. The service is TERRIBLE! Let me repeat TERRRRRRIBLE!!!!! I guess they assume they not gone get a good tip or whatever, but they will completely ignore you. Well me anyway on multiple occasions. 3 of the 5 times I went I didn’t even get bread that everyone gets. They take my order an disappear. It was so bad one night I went in, it literally was me an another person in the restaurant an the girl brought me a cold pizza. LITERALLY COLD!! How does that happen! I had to get them to remake a free pizza! Now you guys are wasting money because of poor service. I will continue to come only for the free pizza. I honestly can not recommend this place in faith. Hell I went in there one day to pick up an order an the manager completely ignored me standing there an asked everyone else if they would like something to drink while they wait. Really?? I’m staring to think it’s a SKIN thing. I have not had any confrontations with anyone for them to look at me side ways. I tip well for good serve. Hell the two people that gave me bread, I tipped like $2 on a free check. This is my assessment of this establishment an I feel they can use a lot of training on service. NEVER want anyone to lose a job or anything like that. I would just train better so these type of reviews don’t happen!

We enjoyed our lunch together. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The service is excellent and there was no wait at all.

Went for the Dodger deal, but we always order an entree as well. Tried the Bahn Mi bowl tonight. Interesting; not my favorite. I like the Italian salad which is full of yummy meats and flavors. Still, it was nice to try something different and the BBQ chicken pizza was delish, as always ?

Excellent food selection! The barely & pea soup I had was divine! Our server was very pleasant despite it being rather late!

visited this place using the costco special $79 for $100 worth of CPK.The food were just average with pizza, pasta, and service...the service was surprisingly slow since the place was not busy. I had to get upa few times to like remind the server that we needed assistance

HORRIBLE SERVICE HORRIBLE QUALITY FOOD. MUST BE A FRANCHISE TRYING TO SAVE MONEY! HOT SHRIMP PLATE WITH SHRIMP STILL FROZEN! EWW!

I came in asking for an Alfredo. Shrimp, chicken and mushroom were my choices. I said I wanted all 3. My bill came out to $26.93. I received 1 tiny slice of squished bread, and a container way less then the size of my thumb in height with a small hand full of noodles, 4 shrimp with tails, 1 mushroom, and a few little chicken pieces Maybe being the size of 2 chicken nuggets combined. I paid 26.93 for something that my mom could eat and still be hungry due to her Gastric bypass surgery. I even took a picture of it. I will just go to domino's and call it a night. The food was good but I'm left hungry and unsatisfied.! Won't be going back.

Worst customer service ever , the waitress didn’t even ask at the end if we wanted desert, it looks like they discriminate Latinos

When I went, the service was very good and it smelled amazing but the pizza has virtually no sauce?

Food was amazing recommend as an appetizer the chicken wrapped tacos two thumbs up on that food and drinks for amazing customer service is great definitely recommend
