Great food, Great Service. I've seen them slowly build up the decorations to make it more & more homely since they opened. Go here all the time

On 5/24/2024 Eujoung Kim had this to say:
This is a really good store with a great selection and a mini Food Court. Pizza was good. Have I had better Pizza? Yes. But for a 10 inch two topping with a 32 Oz drink for under $12 is hard to beat. 7 inch pizzas are $5. And they have a Chicken store next to it. All needs are met here!

On 5/24/2024 Eujoung had this to say:
The place and restroom are clean. They have a nice selection and a small Food Court. The Pizza was pretty good. Crispy but not too hard. It is priced well too. I got a two topping 10 inch with a drink for under $12. They have 7 inch pizzas for $5. This place is well thought out. Testimonial written by Eujoung on this site.
