I hate leaving a negative review, especially since this place has so many great ratings and even my neighbors speak highly of it. That’s actually why I decided to give it a try. I ordered a NY White pizza and selected the “crispy” crust option, assuming it would still resemble a traditional thin New York-style slice. I also added garlic knots. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t live up to expectations. The garlic knots tasted like they may have been store-bought frozen rolls. They were dry, lacked parmesan, and had a very low-quality garlic flavor—almost burnt-tasting without actually being burnt. The pizza itself was also disappointing. Instead of a flavorful, crispy crust, it came across as dry and bland—more like cardboard than a fresh pie. There’s definitely a difference between “crispy” and “overly dry,” and this leaned heavily toward the latter. The seasoning tasted similar to what was on the knots, which didn’t help. I try to be mindful about what I eat and tend to notice when ingredients don’t taste fresh. This felt like something I could have put together at home with lower-end store ingredients and had a better result. It also seemed like the kitchen may have been having an off day. While I was there, two customers spent their entire lunch break waiting without receiving their food, and another customer was given the option to accept an incorrect pizza or wait even longer for a remake. Lastly, the wait time stood out. Waiting over an hour for a pizza—especially one that didn’t taste fresh—was frustrating.
I love this place! I go there so much that I don’t even need to order anymore🤣. Locally owned small business that deserves your support. Oh and the Christmas tree cake pie is on point!
Our first time here. The food is delicious! We ordered Fried Mushrooms as an appetizer. We ordered Deluxe Supreme Pizza,1 slice of Cheese Pizza, and the Kid's Spaghetti and Meatballs. Service was great! You gotta go! You'll be glad you did!
The calozone with pepperoni quality dropped significantly, the pictures says it all. I will give them one more try but if the calozone is barely filled with ricotta, mozzarella, and pepperoni like how it use to be prepared, we will no longer purchase from this establishment.
This was just so good. The pizza was excellent. Perfect texture in the crust. Sauce not too sweet. Good topping to crust size ratio. And the people who work there are magnificent. I very much appreciated how they handled my order for 5 pizzas, baked spaghetti, and a Greek salad. I would definitely patronize this wonderful place regularly if I lived in the area!
We really enjoyed this little gem in the middle of a kind of rural area. The staff were super friendly, and our server (did not get her name, but she did have beautiful red hair) was on top of everything. She even filled our new rabbit's water bottle. The reason we came to Smith Station that day. The food was delicious! We started with an order or garlic knots and cheese sticks. They were hot, fresh, and delicious! Not to mention the cheese pull, we got off those fried cheesy sticks of deliciousness! For dinner, we ordered two chicken parms and an eggplant parm for me. My boys substituted Alfredo sauce for the marinara. Which they did without complaint. Both of my boys loved their meals. My eggplant parm was killer. I only have one complaint. The sauce tasted amazing but was a little thin, and I wish they offered maybe one other pasta choice. The spaghetti just didn't hold the sauce well. For dessert, we ordered two slices of delicious tiramisu! It's the good kind too! It was frozen, but by the time we made it back home, we live about an hour and twenty minutes from there. It was perfect and ready for us to tear into. They informed us up front it was still frozen, which wasn't an issue for us. If I had to rate this cozy little spot, I would give it a 9.8 out of 10! We hope to come back one day. I've even been mentioning it to several people I know. Good times! Make sure to stop and check them out!
We come here at least once a week. It is a hidden gem. I have not had bad food here ever and I have ordered almost everything on the menu. Salads are always super fresh and have appropriate ripe toppings. YES, you will have to wait for your food. They cook it fresh for you. I like my pizza on the crispier side so I ask for it that way. They do not mind at all. My favorite is the Italian sub hot. They make everything they can in house. Yes, even the bread for the sandwiches. The fries are hand cut and you absolutely cannot beat them. I have come just when I have had a hankering for good fries. I have ordered catering a few times and they will even deliver if it is local! One of my kids orders spaghetti and a meatball and the other orders pizza everytime. If the weather is nice you can eat outside and still enjoy watching a television (crucial if you have small kids). Wait staff is excellent every single time. The owner also keeps up with every table which is pretty awesome. This is just a fantastic laid back family place. The pictures I posted are from different visits
I came in not knowing the reviews or how the food will turn out. My family said we was going to eat at this Italian restaurant and that's all I knew. Saw they had subs on the menu and I thought it would of been like a subway sandwich but I was wrong! Which I don't mind subway sandwiches but this was 10 times better! I had the Italian Sub hot. The bread is fresh and amazing. The wait for the food was totally worth it because it's all fresh and amazing. There is a few other things on that menu I want to try. My aunt loved her good and my grandpa loved his. 10/10 recommend! One of the lady that works there was super sweet and telling me how they made their food and that her sister owns the restaurant. It's definitely something to try!
