Food Comments: "Sun Dried Tomato Pesto (SDTP) pie tastes like an Italian house salad in your mouth." -Frank
"Outside is like sitting on my own patio, cozy." -Tamara
SDTP would have been MVP, but Matt disliked the tomatoes. Spinach artichoke pizza was like dip on a crust. Told we'd have a 45 minute wait, it was more like 20. Good crust, not too thin but not overly bready. The pizza sauce and marinara were super flavorful.
"You Can count on the flavors to do their job well." -Frank
"Flavors blended well, no standouts." -Tamara

Service/Atmosphere Comments: Very friendly counter staff. Small-ish interior, we sat out on the patio. They can't do running tabs, we paid up front.
