    I had a great time at The Copper. The food was delicious, affordable, and worth every bite. It’s very kids friendly and the kids menu is great—my little ones found plenty they loved. We’ll definitely be coming back!

    The Copper Restaurant is fantastic! I had some of the best pizzas I’ve ever eaten. I don’t normally eat the crust, but with their pizzas I ate every last bite. The flavors were amazing and the crust was perfectly cooked. On top of that, the place has a great vibe—warm, welcoming, and fun. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends!

    I had a bad experience with the Pizza purchased today. The box was so big for Large size pizza and the pizza inside was small size. Also, the pizza was kind of burnt from the backside , you can feel it while eating , I paid $24.78 for Margarita pizza along with taxes, which is not at all worth it. Dominos is better than it, it was closed today on Thanksgiving so went to L’Antica. They really need to improve.
