"What an awesome gluten free pizza crust! I kept it simple with pepperoni and sausage toppings and it was very good. The crust was cooked well, the edges are always a little more done but thats to be expected with this type of crust and I enjoyed the crispiness. The cheese was plentiful and the red sauce was delicious. What a great find while we're here on vacation! We will definitely be back next time!"

"Minestrone was great! Fresh, well flavored. Pappardelle was just ok. Good pasta but sauce lacked depth. Meatballs were also ok. Polenta was just a cube in the dish and obligatory. Overpriced by 30% IMHO."
"A little disappointed in the Hanger Steak. It was dry, well done, and over-priced. Fettuccine alla Bolognese was not very flavorful and a little bland. Santa Croce is really flavorful and the dressing had a light lemon flavor. Pannacotta was ok. Overall, overpriced for minimal effort, but maybe a different experience for in-person dining. "

"Ordered the Gouda Burger and added bacon. As soon as I opened it I was not impressed. The fries are basic, frozen fries. The burger had no condiments or lettuce on it. Sautéed mushrooms apparently means 3 mushroom slices, and the bacon I paid $5 to add definitely had been sitting around for a few hours and was pretty oily, tough, and sparse. Definitely not worth the money. "

"Truly excellent Turkish/Greek cuisine. The spreads are stellar, served with generous portions of toasted pita bread. Lentil soup is solid and earthy.
Greek Chicken Souvlaki, Spanakopita and Gyro are all standouts. For vegetarians or vegans the, Falafel Wrap is also a strong choice.
Teşekkürler! (thanks in Turkish)"
"Greek Salad was pretty good -- could have used more than 4 cubes of cucumber. I added chicken and it was SO dry -- definitely not worth the extra $10. Tzatziki is tasty. Good pita."

"The meat was delicious, especially the brisket. The sides were very small, but the little we had was good."
"I had not ordered the brisket sandwich in months. The previous times it was great. This was horrible. First off, the size was tiny ... about 4" x 2.75". Then, I opened the sandwich and saw all the fat, which I trimed off (shown in photo), leaving little brisket.
The taste is bad too. Definitely not the same as it used to be. $18? Ridiculous!"

"Beyond Burger was amazing, Sweet Potato Fries were crispy and delicious. 10/10 would destroy this meal again."
"Food arrived in an unsealed package, bag wasn't even tied close. I asked for a Blue Cheese Burger medium well, which to my understanding means it's cooked till there's no pink but is still soft. They sent me a charred hockey puck.
Side Salad and Bread Pudding were fairly good though at least. Probably not gonna order here again for a while due to my disappointment with the burger."

"The Appetizers - Sweet Potato Fries were yummy, but the order was too big. Not great as a leftover. Considering offering a half order?
The Gyros bowl was excellent. Meat was so so so tender."

"The pizza was amazing! My husband can't eat cheese (and hates vegan cheese) and they have the option to remove it, really appreciate that. Fresh jalapenos, not pickled. Wings were crispy and my slice of pepperoni pizza was huge. No complaints, thanks for a great vacation dinner!"
"The food is absolutely amazing here! The pizza is always so delicious and their Ranch is to die for! They make their Ranch in-house and it always tastes so fresh! The customer service is great!

"Taqueria Vallarta is the best Mexican restaurant in all of Santa Cruz. I grew up eating at their many locations and have always had tasty, flavorful meals. The portions are always right, and you can't beat their prices. I love their burritos, tacos, tortas, quesabirrias, and their agua de horchata. Breakfast Burrito"
"for the super nachos was disappointed about the amount of shrimp, I paid for extra, it was doused in refried beans,sub par, this
place is very inconsistent with it whether or not they get it right, I have an avocado allergy, and there has been a lot of times where they did not follow avocado on the side request"

"I think I am like most consumers really struggling right now with the cost of food. and especially with the recent rays of minimum wage for fast food workers I see all of the prices have dramatically increased for all of the restaurants listed on doordash. it has become ridiculous to think that hamburgers cost 10 to 15 bucks or a sandwich is going to cost you $25 or more! I just wanted to mention this and point out that Little Caesars is absolutely the best bang for the buck! your food is always prepared and delivered fresh hot and delicious. and they are one of the few restaurants where I can have a complete full meal for about half of what all of the other restaurants are charging after hiked prices delivery fees tip Etc. I have a renewed love and admiration for Little Caesars in the wonderful business and food that they provide! thanks guys"

"I was craving chicken kabob and stumbled across this place on door dash, and it EXCEEDED my expectations. The meat is so flavorful (some sort of yogurt marinade) and its a pretty generous portion! I had never had this type of lentil soup (blended) but it was delicious and authentic (according to other reviews). Will be ordering again!! "
"I got the combo plate (falafel and chicken shwarma) made into a salad (all greens as a base). The proportions/ratios and presentation were excellent , but the sauces I ordered were very sparse, and I'm not sure they were all there. The shwarma is perfectly seasoned and the falafel is perfectly fried. It was a solid meal! I will continue to order from this place again and again! "
