Jennifer B. said: "I love Suzie's! The food is good and it is convenient, esp. with the drive thru. That said, I wish the inside was a little more welcoming for a sit down lunch place, but I do love the people and the food, so I'm a regular." read more »

Review from Larry B.
Pizza and coffee? Is this a college dorm?
No, it's a Kosher restaurant serving fresh Pizza, Pasta, Panini, and Salads.
Maybe its name is derived from the NY place of a similar name: Aroma Espresso Bar. The big picture on the wall is of Manhattan. Or is it a coincidence? (I understand there is no word for 'coincidence' in Hebrew)
This is a hopping spot for the Jewish Community. The TV is even set to the Hebrew channel. I am not Jewish, but it seems everyone else is. This tiny 9-table café closes 2 hours before Shabbat, and re-opens 1 hour after Shabbat ends. That means it is not open during Saturday daylight (http://en.wikipedia.or...). But, what do I know? Call them if that's when you want to go. Otherwise it's 9am-9pm.
Menu has mostly vegetarian items (including the pizza), which is a bit strange, since the name of the street means a teenage female buffalo. If you want meat or fish, tuna is your option (I wonder if the NY place offers beef, ...it could be named the 'Gaza Strip'). For whatever reason, there are no bagels and lox here.
I order the Balkan Pizza, which has eggplant, sesame seeds on the crust, and feta cheese.
I am the only gentile in the packed place, and MY order gets mixed-up and delayed by 15 minutes. A coincidence? You decide. The apologetic waitress brings me a slice of cheese pizza to make up for it (it did not).
The pizza was delicious for the first few bites, but then the saltiness starting to get to me, the middle of the pizza got soggy, and there just was frankly not enough eggplant for the price. I understand it might make the pizza even more soggy, but if you offer eggplant pizza, go solve that problem first.
Most tables are small, but the ones against the big mirror on wall are higher. Maybe the wi-fi reception is better on these Go LAN Heights.
They have a Facebook page, but not a dedicated web page as of this writing.
The whole time I was there (lunch), I did not see anyone have a coffee or espresso. Then again, I did not see any college-age kids, either. Coincidence?
