The ambience is great and just shy of being too hip. Waitstaff was super friendly--felt like I was eating at a friend's house, but guess that's the point.
Limoncello and chocolate desserts were great. Our waitress suggested we get the chocolate one over ice cream. You should try it.
Didn't try the pizza. We'll be back.

Very nice people, especially the owner. However, their demeanor is a little too casual for the restaurant's ambience.
I've had the mushroom pizza 3-4 times and don't think there a reason to take my chances with anything else. It's great.

Unless it's dishonest and uneducated salespeople and sticky counters you're looking for, go someplace else. Their staff is all slimy used car salespeople-in-training.
If someone's helpful, it's because they're getting commission. And take a close look at that slip you take to the register -- they're known for secretly sneaking in additional items or the next-level-up product.
Here's some things I've experienced:
-Man in memory section told me I couldn't grab an OEM box of Windows 7 from the shelf (just a few aisles away) and had to include it on his commission slip --sneaky
-Man in home a/v had never heard of Roku Player. --uninformed/uneducated salespeople
-Man in Apple section (where they have the new Apple TV) excused the fact that they're not demoing one with "Yeah, Apple doesn't let us set them up." --tacky

Love this place! Since becoming vegetarian I've missed chicken wings; Green has a tasty, vegan alternative! For an appetizer, Chili Fries are tasty too!
I've had the No Harm Chicken Parm and the "Meatball Po-Boy; both were pretty good, but the Thai Peanut Bowl is my favorite.

Nice vegetrian section on the menu that reproduces all the options that could come with meat (instead of just implying you could sub tofu).
Good stuff; got take-out tonight of (Vegetarian) Spicy Noodle and had a Thai Iced Tea while I waited. I asked for in-between medium and hot on the former and it came out just right. The Thai Iced Tea was standard issue. 12 bucks for the dinner and drink. Very happy with that I had.

Great place to connect with other geeks, through blogs, forums and wikis...

Dry Cleaning & Laundry
Anyone can clean clothes. Not everyone gets customer service.
Showed up at 6:05 tonight (they close at 6 on Saturdays) and the door was locked. Normally okay, but my wife needed her clothes for 8 am flight tomorrow. Young lady inside wouldn't even acknowledge me even after we made eye contact. Another woman inside completely ignored my knock on the glass door. Neither picked up the phone (calling from parking lot).
Dry cleaning is a prepaid service, so grqbbing our clothes would have taken all of three minutes. To acknowledge that we needed help, even to reply with, "sorry, but i cant help..." would have made us feel better.
That's bad service. And a reason to go elsewhere.
Never doing business here again -- so much for supporting the little guys.

LOVE IT! Share a church pew with another family and grab an Irish car bomb. Can't remember all the pasties I've had, but I know I like the one with curry and fake chicken! Also try the garlic fries, but make sure your woman has some too so you don't sacrifice any kisses. If you're into beans, get the white beans in the tomato sauce, extra spicy; it's great, but I'm going to ask for it without cheese next time.
If you're not a drinker, the lemonade is tasty too!

A great family-owned and operated neighborhood pizza place, Spinato's has a really sweet sauce on their pies that I cant get enough of. Square cut pizza is always easier to share with the family too. Eat-in or takeout service is always top-notch.

They make a decent pizza with ample toppings and a chewy crust. Better, their sauce is sweet!
