An incredible found thank to the other reviewers.Amazing pizzas and very attentive service and owner. The place is very cute place too!Their pizzas are light and crunchy, perfectly cooked, and you can tell the ingredients and tomato sauce are so fresh. I would give them more stars if I could. Well, here I go...10 stars!

Excellent food! The pizza quality was fantastic and delicious. Great crust! You have to get the homemade almond cake! Superb. Loved how clean the restaurant was and the ambiance there. Sierra was our waitress and was amazing! She took pride in the work she does. I even asked if it was her family that owned the restaurant because that sense of pride and ownership is usually lost in most employees. She described the food with such detail and was spot on with the accuracy. Super attentive too! We had our two small children with us and she asked if we wanted it double cut for smaller slices for them. Will definitely be back!

First visit was a wonderful experience!! Comfortable environment with great energy. Extremely friendly and attentive service (thank you, Sierra!)! Started with calamari and garlic rolls - both were delish! Traditional cheese pizza was also very tasty.

This place was amazing! The bruschetta and pizza were delicious!! Definitely coming back!

I know this place is new and don't like to give negative reviews especially when they're trying to get a steady clientele. Unfortunately I wasn't thrilled with the meatball sub I had ordered. If it was longer than 4 inches I'd be surprised and only had four small meatballs on it. With the way things are going nowadays maybe they can only get 4-in subs but to charge me $13 for it was quite disappointing. I do wish them luck and I will try their slices sometime in the future.

I was here years ago when it was a cafe called Hattie's. This place is nicely designed, friendly staff, owner came by and chatted. Interesting ambiance. Better than I expected manicotti. You can choose Alfredo or marinara. I asked for both and they did that, so good. And lots of golden, broiled cheese on top. Many of gluten free options too ( pizza, pasta, sauce).

Grabbed a quick lunch on Saturday with my hubby, and we were both impressed with the pizza and Chef salad. The pizza was delicious and generously topped — we had one slice with pepperoni and the other with sausage. Crust was tasty and perfectly crisp. The Chef Salad was made with super fresh ingredients and their homemade Ranch dressing was the perfect topping. We sat outside and enjoyed our beautiful fall weather. There is a nice small bar inside which will try another time. We will definitely be back!

We went at lunchtime recently and the kitchen made an error/omission on my order. The owner/manager came over and had another entree made for me right away. Not only that, but he gave us a coupon for dollars off our next meals. We went back a couple of weeks later and used the coupon successfully. The food has great flavor. We plan on going back again and again.

Spent $50 for pizza and I got the most pathetic pizzas I’ve ever seen. Crust was Udis GF crust not even hand made. They said 20 mins and the pizza was cold when I picked it up. They didn’t even put all the toppings I asked for and got the order wrong after charging $1.50per toppings. This is not a place that takes pride in the food they are serving but just in it to charge premium prices for less than mediocre pizza. Also got to-go drinks and more than half the cup was filled with ice. I will never go back and if you are looking for gluten free pizza or a place that values customers and the food they serve do NOT go here. This is by far the worst pizza I’ve gotten in the area. Very disappointed and appalled that someone would even serve such dry and tasteless “pizza.”

What an amazing find! Perfect family owned pizza place with great prices and FOOD! I’ve owned a pizza place before and I know good pizza and let me tell you this is the real deal! The owner is so nice and his wife did an amazing job decorating the interior. Clean and modern looking. A MUST TRY!!
