Sat at the bar for dinner. Bartender was pleasant. Quite cold outside, I asked, "what is your soup today", response "tomato basil soup". 1 minute later bartender returns, "we have no soup today".
Moving on. Ordered penne bolognese, bartender responds " we are out of pasta bolognese"".
Really? Why even have a menu, or restaurant for that matter?Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1Business owner information

This restuarant has been around a few years now, but the reservation policy became so onerous that I have not eaten here in several months. Dined here last Thursday night, MISTAKE. Should have known, when there were only about 15 diehards eating in an empty dining space that was previously filled and noisy every night.
Same hipster waitstaff as before, sometimes too hip for my anti-millennial taste, but on this evening we sat at the bar. The tender was pleasant and efficient, one star.
The garlic knots arrived burnt to a black charred crisp, so over cooked the interior texture was of a cracker instead of soft and stretchy pizza dough.
The accompanying cheese fonduta was excellent, second star.
Ordered the Brussels sprout salad, usually a standout, but tonight bitter and vegetal in a bad way. Likely the sprouts had turned and couldn't be saved by the 6 golden raisins in my salad mix. Question; have Trump's tariffs resulted in a raisin shortage?
Next came the "baked ziti ". Should change the name to "forged ziti"!The ziti"s cheesy top was so over cooked you could have lifted it off and thrown it like a frisbee. No stretchy goodness here. Burnt pasta tubes that crunched to the bite, with sauce that mostly evaporated out of the skillet under the withering heat. Inedible, but my dog at home didn't think so.
Finally the brownie with ice cream. Two very stale, or over cooked ,crunchy brownie wedges accompanied by two tablespoons of vanilla ice cream. I like my brownies soft and chewy. In any event the amount of ice cream was overwhelmed by the dryness of these hockey pucks. Honestly, I ate the ice cream and left the brownies!!!!! LEFT the brownies!

Went for a date night and was very pleasantly surprised!
Our app came out within 3-5 minutes and it was so much better than regular garlic knots. You HAVE to get them if you go here. The cheese garlic sauce is whipped and fluffy, the bread is fresh and garlicky with butter on it. That alone was enough to make us come back. The pizza was really good and we added roasted garlic. I usually don't like the meat pizza but husband does and it sounded good. I actually really liked it!
We sat at the bar with no wait, staff was attentive, nice and restaurant was clean and well decorated.
Overall an amazing pizza place that's more than just pizzaHelpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

I don't know if the center of the pizza is supposed to be soggy so one could eat New York
style . The pizza otherwise was pretty good. The prosciutto was excellent there was plenty of prosciutto and arugula. We will come back for happy hour. We are snow birdsHelpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mar 24, 2023
Great pizza! You gotta eat it fresh though before it cools off. Try their crawfish pizza if you get a chance! I eat their chopped salad when i'm trying to eat light. Get the cinnamon knots if you want dessert.
The service is great. The pizza chefs always let kids play with dough and pretend to make their own pizzas.
The ambiance is really nice, but not so formal as to be uptight.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - David H.Chatham, NJ29311Jan 6, 2024
Pizza was late and horribly prepared. It was burnt and soggy at the same time as if thrown together just to get it out even though the restaurant was empty.
The service was equally bad. We sat for 15 minutes while 80 % of the staff joked around in plain view out by the bar.minhad to get the host to go over and get us a server. He seemed bothered that we disturbed him. This place used to be good. Never again. Owners need to clean house, from the cooks to the servers.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1Business owner information

Food is good. However, I must say how incredibly disappointing it is for the owner to charge a 3% administration fee that supposedly goes to "kitchen staff." It's disgusting that the owner refuses to pay her employees better, so she decided to impose this surcharge for the customers to pay for it rather than herself. As a business owner myself, i would NEVER do this. It is very deceptive to do this to your customers. Why should it be the customers responsibility to pay?! That's the owners job.

Best pizza we've had in New Orleans. Place was empty and the service could have been a bit better but all in all we'd definitely go back.

2 stars because the service was great. Let's get to the meat of it, shall we?
The moment you take a bite of the pizza, you'll be baffled by the price... how they charging an arm and a leg for a small pizza of low-grade quality? Gorrrrl Zon't Zo it. I only appreciated the pizza (ordered the White pizza and Spinach pizza but have tried the cheese & pepperoni previously) 2 days later after I air-fried it and added red paper flakes.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information
