Me and Wife Unit stopped in for some pizza. Wife Unit had heard about this place from some coworkers and thought it'd be something to try out. Good call baby! The size of the slices were massive. And had that old school pizza taste... like before they started messing around with to many toppings and gimmick crusts. The place had a great aged former warehouse vibe. With lots of exposed brick and worn wood. Some great touches like interesting murals and an old safe as the to go table. The lady who helped us was fine. Friendly and competent, but while we were eating the shift changed so it was probably a heroic effort to stay that positive at the end of her shift. Great place, highly recommended if you're in that area!

Stumbled across this when we had lots of time before catching a flight in Norfolk. This pizza is the best pizza, huge slices and soooo very tasty...nice & cheesy. One slice is plenty even if you're really hungry! I highly recommend it, we got there just before the lunch crowd & it's definitely popular. I highly recommend it if you have the time to check it out, great service in a fun small place.

The pizza is humongous and delicious. They were running a special bruschetta pizza and it was fantastic.

We visited here bringing my son to AIT. wow, do I wish it was closer to the Midwest. Quaint building with old brick charm. Clean and well maintained. Now for the food. Limited pizza choices by the slice or a one size family pizza. it doesn't matter, because if you leave here hungry, that's on you. Fresh ingredients, cheese was delicious. We chose slices of pepperoni, and by slices, each filled two paper plates. Cans and bottles of different beverages to choose for your drinks. Finally the staff. They were the sweetest young ladies, greeting us with a smile and making us feel at home. Try this place! I will find a reason to travel this way again.

This place is so refreshing after price creep has been hitting so many restaurants. 5-7$'s (tax included in price even!) for a single slice of pizza that's big enough to be a filling lunch. Monthly rotating menu of special options that keep it fresh and offer some really unique flavors. The staff have always been pleasant and the turn around is usually about 5-10 minutes to get your food. Inside decoration is simple but fun, with a lot of local flair. My only knock on this place has been occasional issues with some slices coming out a bit overcooked, but that's about it.

This is default to go pizza from now on. I ordered online for delivery. After seeing the good reviews, I gave them a try. They have good reviews for a reason. I ordered three slices, two 2 Pepperoni and 1 Bobby Bruschetta. After I got the pizza, I admit I was a little puzzled by the large pizza box. I only orders 3 slices, but I was shocked when I opened the box. Y'all, the slice of pizza was a big as my face, big as my head. I giggled so hard! I was skeptical of the taste but another surprise. It's definitely a NY slice. The crust/dough was sufficient for optimal topping load and foldability. Not too stiff and not too soft. Just right, if you ask me. Wasn't too much grease either. Prices are great, considering what you get. I spent around $25 bucks for giant, great tasting pizza. I look forward to dining in house and getting a different experience. I'll definitely be back and spread the word.

Pizza is all they do and they don't need to do anything else. $6.50 for a slice with toppings is a lot, but when you factor in each slice is the equivalent of 2 regular sized slices, it isn't quite as crazy. If you can finish 2 slices, which I was barely able to do, it's a job well done! Service was decently quick, my 2 slices were out of the oven in about 8 or 9 minutes. I think it took them about 5 minutes just to get the toppings on! The variety of bottled and canned drinks is fantastic. Sure you can have your Coke or Pepsi, but they also have some unique options like Tab soda and Joe's Tea, which is to me, the best bottled tea in existence.

Delicious pizza! The slices are huge and remind me of NY style pizza. Good ranch and marinara sauces you can get on the side. Nice crust with a good bite! Nice customer service and reference for size, I couldn't even finish the slice. Head here for a great pizza slice!
