    Got a one topping large pepperoni pizza, it was good but a little bit pricey for what they promoted, got charged 19.50 when they have a chalkboard saying 13.95. Their was only one gentleman working up front, dude was a champ at making 7 pizzas by himself. Waited about 25 minutes but it was understandable. Over all the pizza was thin and satisfying.

    If you are a crumb in the foil of my Pebble Beach sub, you’re liable to get eaten. No crumbs left behind! One of my favorite gems on the peninsula.

    Pizza molto sopra la media degli standard americani. Attesa esageratamente lunga.

    Calling in an order can be frustrating so just show up. Friendly man making the pizza. Paid $20 for large w 3 toppings. Will be coming back. The pizzas are on the thinner side so one large probably feeds 2-3 people.
