    New York crust tower toppings
    Teresa C.

    I love this place in uptown Westerville . I always get the NY crust with the tower toppings and it never disappoints. Bartenders are helpful and friendly . It gets crowded so you might have to wait .. but if it's on the weekend grab a Dora cup and walk around . It's a dark old bar which is part of its charm . Highly recommend stopping in .

    This is my favorite pizza shop in Columbus. Why? First I love the vibe. Its a small shop and I mean right now its small and truly, I love that. However, its in the process of acquiring/modifying the space next door so it will get bigger. Im sure I will still love bigger as it eill be easier to get seating. Currently it has four tables and a bar that seats 7-8. Everything is made in house except the cauliflower crust, boneless chicken and one other thing, which I dont get, so I forgot what it is. The salads are great. The dressings are made in-house, their ranch is my favorite. The bar is fun to sit at and very comfortable. they hire great people that are always fun to talk to. They have two types of crust: NY Style and Columbus style. Both are good but I prefer the NY style. They have two sauces, spicy and regular. The spicy is amazing. The regular is sweeter than the spicy (imo) My go to here is the NY style Taylors favorite.. omit sausage on half and "a Propa-Pie, add sausage to entire pie. The pepperoni is the type that curls upward and their sausage is good sized. The mushrooms are so fresh. Yum. Thanks Mel (one of the owners) for always making us feel like regulars even tho we come in sporadically and always sending us home happy and full!

    Ended up going here to grab a pizza for the Browns vs Cardinals game. Ironic, isn't it? But, unlike the Cardinals football team, this pizza is not slouch. When we pulled up, I noticed that they were Browns supporters, so I knew I was in for a treat. The cashier was very welcoming and friendly. We ordered the Proper Pie to go, and this pizza featured Old World Pepperoni, which is my favorite! The pizza looked and smelled phenomenal when we got into the car. My wife was not in the mood for pizza, so she ordered one of their meatball subs. When we got home, we dug in. The pizza had a thinner crust, and the flavors were amazing. The pepp was cripsy and bold! The cheese had a nice pull, and the sauce was very complimentary. I drizzled a little ranch on a slice, and it enhanced the pie even more. The crust had a nice crunch to it as well. My wife said that she enjoyed her meatball sub and the slice of pie she tried. I would give this place another go, and I would like to try another one of their specialty pizzas. The Proper Pie Pizza 1-5=4.5! Customer Service 1-5=5!

    Friends recommended trying this pizza. I can honestly say it's the best in Westerville. I ordered a build your own 14 inch NY style with pepperoni, pineapple, and red onions... yes I put pineapple on 1/2 the pizza. I do appreciate that they use real pineapple. I ordered online and liked that they texted you when it was ready. The girl working was super friendly. Its a small place. I give the pizza a solid 4/5. I would come back and order the pizza. I do wish they offered bigger sizes. As for the small salad... a total scam! 12 pieces of spinach for $5.25... Don't make the same mistake I did. :(

    NY style cheese pizza
    Sarah W.

    We finally had the chance to check out Cardinal Pizza shop on Saturday and I'm so glad we did! We had a large NY style cheese pizza, breadsticks, a thin crust banana pepper pizza, and meatballs. Everything was amazing. Although the breadsticks were my absolute favorite! The crust is a little sweet and there is plenty of delicious cheese. The order was prompt and the prices are great for the quality! Everyone there was super friendly and the ambiance is really cool too. Definitely a must if you're in the Westerville area!

    Limited bar selection, but plenty of great choices to satisfy. #UpCloseSavor

    The sauce was good but the crust was burnt not lightly charred but seriously burnt on the New York Style crust.

    CATERING!! I have been a fan of Chicken Salad Chick since…read morethe beginning. SO DELICIOUS!!! Recently you catered my Dad's Celebration of Life Service. It was perfect! Your food is incredibly delicious! Your customer service is outstanding. I truly appreciate you! Everyone was raving about the food. I wish I could hand out your biz cards at the funeral, but that's kinda tacky! I highly recommend Chicken Salad Chick for it all! Oh and- Don't skip on their soups or desserts!

    This is a good little heathy food spot…read more I drove by one day, Yelppies suggested. I stopped by, it was early in morning, the place was empty, I saw couple of deliveries people picking up their food, the staffs was friendly, I read over the menu, I actually forgot what I ordered, because this review is way past due, maybe 3 weeks past due. But I do remember is one of them combo But first thing first, the two ladies behind the counter is really nice and friendly, I love dealing with an adult instead of those younger generation that don't care for their customers, just show up for their paycheck, if you know what I mean. Lady that serving me asked if I need some suggestion or help for recommendations, very nice and friendly. I ordered (once again I can't remember the name). The sandwich itself is very good, came with side of fruit as you can see on my photo, like I mentioned before, is a good healthy lunch, not too big of the portion. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because couple of my grapes gone bad, they should have checked and take them out before serving to the customer. Because they claim they make the orders when it comes in, so the kitchen should have spot it Overall, definitely recommend and will go back

This cafe's entrance is along the side of building, so you might pass it if you cross the street. There's a decent amount of seating inside the cafe ranging from 2 seat tables to a larger table. There was no wifi from this cafe when I went. They have some merch available for purchase in the back, desserts and pastries, and various drinks. I got a seasonal latte and a pistachio loaf. The latte I got was supposed to taste like a roasted marshmallow and it comes with a roasted marshmallow. The coffee was okay, it wasn't super flavorful and I had to add a bit of extra sugar and they do have a condiment table available. The pistachio loaf was delicious, soft, not too sweet, and flavorful. The staff was nice and the cafe is cute! There's some shopping and other activities around the area that you can do. I would come back to try other things!

They have a decent amount of seating options, but it still felt very crowded. We ordered our drinks to go, so we didn't want to hog a seat. There wasn't much room for us to stand and wait for our drinks, though. My husband got the limited "The Honeycomb" latte and I got "The Canadian". His drink had notes of toffee, wildflower honey, and Dalgona candy. Mine has notes of maple, butter, and cinnamon. My latte was absolutely delicious - it tasted like cereal milk. My husband said he couldn't taste much of the espresso in his drink, but he did like the sweetness and overall flavor. I also really loved his drink as well. My only complaint is that my cold foam completely disappeared by the time I got to my car and I didn't even take a sip of it yet!

It's been a minute since I've been here, and honestly, I forgot how good it is. I went all in with the Chicken Pot Pie Soup, Mama's Meatball sandwich with peppers, and a bag of Zapp's Hot Pepper chips--because moderation is for people who don't love flavor. The Chicken Pot Pie Soup? Well, let's just say it leaned more "cream of chicken" than "pot pie." The crusty topping... I'm not sure what sorcery that was, but it had the texture of something between a crouton and a pulverized Ritz cracker that lost its way. Not bad, just... confusing. cracker The Mama's Meatball, though, stole the show. Delicious, saucy, and stacked like it's proud of itself. The peppers gave it just the right kick. And Zapp's chips? Always a chaotic good choice. Overall, great lunch, great company, and a reminder that Potbelly still knows how to make comfort food without overcomplicating it. Would I come back? Absolutely. Just maybe I'll skip the soup--or bring a pie crust of my own next time.
