"One of the best pizza, perfect dough, fresh ingredients. Delivered hot. All the best."
"I ordered a large thin crust, half Tikka and half Butter chicken. Wow, it was amazing! Idk if someone who owns this used to work at Round Table pizza back in the day, but I did, and their crust and the way they put toppings on the pizza here, up to the edge of the crust is exactly how RT does it. Thin crust was great! I will definitely order again and recommend to anyone who wants something different and to those who already love Indian food!"

"Pizza CYO Individual - 8" came hot and perfectly toasty. Club Sandwich was good with plenty of toppings but the spread was a little spicy for me. Tiramisu was delicious and I appreciated the little container of whip cream that came with it."
"For starters this was VERY generous portion of ravioli. I got the Arrabbiata sauce which I normally use for my sauce when making pasta at home but having it made in house - it was so spicy !! In a good way. I added mushrooms which they were very generous with those as well. Huge mushrooms. It was great. The cannoli was generous as well. Cream was very fresh. "

"The Garlic Mizithra is for SURE my favorite thing on the menu! I don't think I've ever gotten anything other than this, and even before they had this version, I have ALWAYS gotten the mizithra because no one else has it! And I highly suggest getting a side of the 5 oz. Side Creamy Pesto dressing to dip your bread in! Again, very unique to this restaurant! I maybe order from here once a year because it is a bit pricey and far from me, so even with Dashpass, I still have to pay a small delivery fee...BUT...WORTH EVERY PENNY! And don't get me started on the Spumoni...I have selective lactose intolerance for ice cream, and I will gladly suffer to eat it!😆"
"To keep it simple, we ordered delivery. The chicken Caesar salads were noted as entree salads in the menu, but what arrived would barely qualify as side salads. No croutons or parmesan cheese, barely any Romain lettuce. On portion size alone it did not live up to the menu price. The side of meatballs came with barely enough sauce under them, not enough to coat them. One of the joys of marinara is being able to dip your bread into it. There wasn't really enough for that. Disappointed in the restaurant phoning it in for a delivery order."

Their creative 2 Pc Cheeseburger Eggroll also never cease to satisfy me. If you want something unique, local, comforting and packed with flavors, check them out."
"Firstly, the Chili Mac was supposed to be for my son when he gets home later, but I decided to give it a taste. Let's just say it's half gone now. The 2 Pc Cheeseburger Eggroll, those I saved him one of those. They're good but a bit too mustard-y for me. And finally, the Loco Moco, my goodness, I could only finish half, but not because it wasn't absolutely delish (It twas Amazing)...only because the portion is so hearty, it could feed 2. Definitely coming back here soon (or having it come to me, either way). Mad props to this place and the layers of flavors in every single bite. 👌"
