Cardo&#x27;s Pizza

It's a sad day when the gas station right down the road offers better customer service, better…read morepizza, at better prices, than Giovanni's. Oh, and the gas station also allows you to go into their store - something this Giovanni's no longer allows. In my opinion, the Covid-19 Pandemic revealed two different types of people running service businesses: 1. Those who almost gleefully celebrated the pandemic as an opportunity to offer their customers less, to lower their standards, eliminate services, make everything easier for themselves at the cost of making things worse for the customer, and 2. Those who came back stronger than ever, excited to not only continue their services, but to improve them. This Giovanni's is a disgrace and leads the pack in terms of businesses who fit into the first category. They are still operating, right now, many years after the 2020 pandemic, as if they are still in the midst of a worldwide shutdown. They have never returned to in-store service or dining, the building sits there looking like some post-apocalyptic, sad, abandoned shell of a business. My family has sworn them off, and we've become loyal customers to many other pizza places in town, including the gas station right down the street.

Use to love stopping in when I was down that way . Covid hit an no more dining in, I guess they…read moredon't make enough money by hiring a person to take care of the inside.

Perfect amount of toppings- not skimpy but not so much that they're falling off all the time. Mild sauce and the smoked provolone really stands out and sets it apart. I live between Wilmington and Courthouse and was in Wellston for a funeral, and now I'll have something to reward myself with when I go to take care of the graves. Kinda morbid I know but the pizza is gonna motivate me. So yeah, it's legit, the workers were nice, the place was clean, go get a pie! And THEY CUT IT IN TRIANGLES LIKE GOD INTENDED!

Bad customer service customers and patrons are all racist. My wife is white and I'm black and she kept getting dirty looks and stares from everyone in the restaurant. Its just sad since its 2018 and people still get treated horribly because of skin color. Do not reccomend black people or people of color going there read more

Pros: The pizza was good…read more Cons: service and wait time. We ordered our pizza at 5:52. They told us 40 min. We got there in 45 min. It wasn't ready. I was told 'seven minutes' and then after 15 more minutes, I asked if they were making our pizzas now. (Because I could see them looking chaotic and making our pizzas based on the toppings). Only then was I told, "yes. Something happened. They were made but they think someone took them. They were making them right away and they would be just a few more minutes." The pizzas were ready at 7:16. In that time, only one server asked me if I would like a drink while I waited. Once they were finished, they were each opened for me by the cook to make sure that they all looked good. I appreciated that. No communication and we paid full price and I left a cash tip. I've been here before and service is always lacking a bit and unorganized but this visit was crazy.

She then immediately grabbed our food and served us. She also didnt even use the hand sanitizer on the wall. Another customer had come out of the restroom and she directed them to use the hand sanitizer they had on the wall (which is not actually sanitary after using the restroom, you are supposed to use soap and water, but they had used the mens room already to wash their hands.) Also, the food is not good. Do not go here even though its one of the only options of places to sit down to eat in McArthur. Go to the grocery store down the street and save your money.
