"Ordered delivery, 3 personal pizzas. Hands down best crust I've had in 5 years. I like original, not to thick, not to thin, crispy, not burnt. I make a lot of homemade pizza and thier crust was better than mine 😋 I personally prefer more garlic but they had the balance"

"I used to come here at least every other week and order a mini taco and medium/large single topping pizza. Today 3/12/25 they charged me for a medium taco which I refused to buy because it’s too much food and money. $50 to my usual $30. I understand mini and medium sound similar so maybe changing the name of the extra small pizza might benefit them. Front desk person said I definitely heard medium, and didn’t try to right their mistake. I always tip and feel a little down on making this review, but alas I will never go back. Cheers pizza counter. Edited to 4 stars because my family still likes this place."

There's two locations, one in the sticks (which technically is all of CB) on South O Bridge Rd and one on Broadway. It's disputed which one is better, I've had both, but I prefer the Broadway one away from the trailer park (in their defense, there used to be a cool Drive-Through Cinema next door to it). Get a pizza pocket (it's a calzone).
