absolutely amazing little place, with probably the best pizza I've had in years, and I'm picky about my pizza... this is good pie. went there on a first date Thursday night with a local girl who recommended it. the ice cream was good too, but they were out of a lot of it. old boy who runs the joint is a Vietnam vet, very respectful old fella. slings a mean pie. when he's not cooking he's out checking on his customers with a big smile on his face. very welcoming atmosphere.

we had a medium pizza with pepperoni and bacon. it was good. very good. it had a lot of cheese, it's hard to get that right. too much cheese and the dough won't cook right. too little and you got a crappy pizza. plenty of toppings, but not so much that they overpower the rest of the ingredients. the sauce was good, some other fella was complaining about bad sauce here in a review. not true, none of it. was good sauce. good dough. good crust. crispy where it needed to be, softer where it needed to be. the ice cream was... well, it looked like it was about time for them to get more. they were out of more than a few things, but the ice cream we did get, it was good stuff. I don't know who their supplier is, but they sure know how to make good ice cream. it didn't taste like it had been freezer burnt like another review said, it was creamy and tasty. no oil in that ice cream, which if you look at most store bought stuff, it's got a lot of oil in it. anyway. I highly recommend this place. pizza is great there. well worth it. best pie I've had in a long time, for sure.

It has been a good while since my family and I ate here, but what I could remember from doing so in the past is they had some of the best calzones you would ever sink your teeth into!! Unfortunately that wasn't the case tonight, I ordered the large calzone with about 5 toppings and OMG they have went so down hill I'm lost for words! The Marinara sauce was fermented and spoiled smelled like alcohol, it looked under cooked with old dough and literally none of the extra toppings I paid for. I'm usually not one to complain but for someone who is also in the pizza industry I was disappointed. Now the man was reasonable and respectful about the complaints and gave me a credit that I'll probably never use. Jus upsetting cuz this use to be the go to place for my calzones. Again it has been some time till tonight that I've eaten there.

Great location. Gives the vibes of family run restaurant. Food options are plenty. Good for lunch when you have less time. Seasonal fries were really good.

Great place for an ice cream desert; the two people working there were wonderful & friendly, including giving a small cup of whipped cream to our dogs.

Chris makes his own pizza dough and sauce from scratch. It is so amazing. And the ice cream variety is phenomenal, the prices beat anyone around!

Very friendly and welcoming. Prices are very fair, it's clean, and the old school feel of a mom and pop shop makes it a great experience.

We went there for dinner the first time as we are new to the area. As soon as we walked in, the temperature in there was higher than outside. The pizza was pretty good and brought to us in a reasonable amount of time. We sat outside and the older gentleman did come out and check on us. We will give them another visit, they did have some yummy looking ice cream. When they get the AC fixed I'm sure it will be much more comfortable.

I had high hopes, as I love cute mom and pop business and love to support them. But the minute I walked up to the counter and saw a patch of ice, about 4 inches in diameter, on the OUTSIDE of the wooden ice cream case, I felt uneasy. 90% of the inside of the case was cover in a thick layer of ice. I looked over the ice cream options trying to decide which was the safest to eat. A previous reviewer was not exaggerating. There was at least 4 buckets of ice cream that looked as though they had partially melted then was refrozen. Hazardous!!! I picked the safest looking ice cream and a vanilla malt. The malt was too watery, and the vanilla peanut butter swirl ice cream had a weird zing to it. On top of that, the employee being trained looked sad like she didn't want to be there.
