SERVICE: PLEASE KNOW THAT 7 STONE DOES NOT BAKE PIZZAS IN THE ORDER RECEIVED. We were six people…read more(3 couples) ordering 3 large artisan pizzas and eating there. Two pizzas came within 10 minutes. The third was not received within 20 minutes so I went back to the counter and inquired. It was sitting in a rack and had not even been placed in the oven. I asked why and was given some song and dance about the three were not reported as being together in a group. Silly me, I didn't know I was supposed to report that my order was with the other two. IF YOU EAT IN AT 7 STONE PIZZA BE SURE TO EXPLICITLY TELL THEM IF YOU HAVE A GROUP AND ORDER MORE THAN ONE PIZZA. I had ordered second and the first and third orders were promptly processed and baked. Why mine was set aside on a rack for some reason I do not know. We got our pizza 20 minutes after the other two were received and the other couples were almost done with their pizzas. We will eat the pizza tomorrow at home. In defense of the place, a lady came to our table and apologized. She offered to give us a gift certificate. I said I appreciated the apology and didn't want another pizza at some other time and declined the gift certificate. An apology was enough. FOOD: The pizza was delicious but would have been better hot out of the oven rather than the next day at home. AMBIANCE: Ambiance is OK but be prepared for a heavy dose of smokiness. I love the smell but some in our group did not.

My boss and I went out to lunch today. He'd picked 7 Stone with a friend of his and his friend's…read morekids. I was just along for the ride... Lol I took at look at their menu online and it's not a big menu... Build your own 7-Stone crust (thick) and artisan crust (thin) along with six different specialty pizzas. Big into appetizers? Don't plan on it here. They have cheesebread and side salads. They offer a couple different items for lunch specials (Wednesday - Friday 11am to 2pm)...toasted hoagies and a half pizza combo. It's order and pay at the counter. Pepsi self serve fountain drinks. Plates, utensils, napkins, and pizza spatulas are beside the fountain drink station. Parmesan and red pepper are on the tables. Seat yourself. The seating is a combination of booths and low top tables and chairs. There's a small counter with seating as well. The business itself is in a strip so there is lots of parking available. There was one gal behind the counter taking orders as well as cooking and serving pizzas. Two younger ladies came in a bit later, but it was hard to tell if they were actual staff or daughters there to hang out with their mom (or maybe both). Staff was friendly enough. Our party ordered: 1x large House7 on 7-Stone crust 1x large buffalo chicken on artisan crust 2x small pepperoni pizzas on artisan crust 1x large cheesebread 1x side salad 7x fountain drinks It was a short wait for everything to get cooked and served. The thicker 7 Stone crust takes about 20 min. The artisan...probably half that. The 7 Stone crust vaguely reminds me of when Pizza Hut still cooked in cast iron. The toasted crust with cheese burnt like little vertical stalagmite (that's the cave formations that form from the floor up)... That was something neat to see. I haven't had a crust like that in a long time. The artisan crust is thinner of course, but perfect for folding. You like a little char? This gives you that in some bubbling aound the edges, but the bottom of the pizza crust is not burnt. I really enjoyed the buffalo chicken pizza! I'm not sure what it was but for me there was something off about the red sauce... It wasn't "bad" but just tasted off. At first I thought it might be a residual taste from the black olives from the House7, but the red sauce on the pepperoni pizzas had the same taste. Maybe it was the plum tomatos they use v. roma or another more traditional variety? Bang for the buck... To me it seemed a little pricey. $22 for a small cheese pizza on 7-Stone. $20 for a small cheese on artisan. $33 for a large specialty on 7-Stone. $31 for a large speciality pizza on artisan. But that might just be me... The company was buying for the two of us today so... The cost is sort of irrelevant outside of mentioning the noted pricing in general. When the company is buying I really don't care. But I'm kind of glad they were paying for it... Lol But no one walked away hungry that's for sure...! And the leftovers I took home will get eaten as long as it warms up anywhere near the same (follow up edit: it did). This is a tough one for me... It's kind of like Gusto. I had a ton of friends who loved the place. I just never cared for it. And there was no particular reason... Is this some place I would return to? Maybe if invited again... But while it's not exactly my favorite... You might love it! Definitely worth checking out! https://www.7stonepizzeria.com/

You need to drain it after washing, or spin it dry in salad spinner, or Pat it dry with paper toweling. I did like the Romano dressing. 3. After forgetting to request our pizza to be baked well-done we sent word with the waitress to tell the pizza baker this. She claims she did but she was so lousy I'm believing she didn't pass along the word, because the bottom side of the crust was white. 4. So guess what, our combo 12" pizza wasn't even warm under the cheese. I'd give it a tepid lukewarm. it doesn't help the shaker of Parmesan cheese was fresh out of the refrigerator, thanks to our legislators and food inspectors about that. There was only one table of guests dining in when we arrived at 6:15 PM on a Saturday night. Should have been our first clue. I don't know what the trouble is, we have never had such a horrid experience at this location. Has management changed, or new owner? Our service was equally as bad. I'm really weary of the lousy attitudes prevalent across the generation just coming into the service industry workforce. ATTENTION owners either you spiff up the kitchen help and front end employees or they will run you out of business very quickly. Remember you read it here first! Thanks for sticking with me to the end.

We arrived and within 10 minutes our drink order was taken. Friendly waitress.

Then she turned that order in and went to the bar to make our drinks. We had been there 30 minutes by now. Yes we had water. The tap was mainly foam. She slowly dumped the beer into a cup til it was nearly full. It was very flat. My margaritas also was a sweet strawberry flavor but the rim was chunky salted and it had alot of salt in the drink.

A nice restaurant with a clean look and a couple of TVs behind the bar playing the Army Navy game. Pics on Google were promising. They were correct.

I asked about the sausage pizza and which item was the cheese....the server was unsure and offered me the pepperoni pizza with mozzarella replacing pepperoni with sausage. Instead, I added sausage to the pepperoni. I prefer pizza with cheese...covering the whole pizza as opposed to a small section. With the cheese thing out, I will say the crust and ingredients were fantastic. We ordered one half pizza/half salad and a whole small pizza. I didn't picture how they'd do a half pizza with an empty restaurant, but it was just a smaller crust. (Makes sense.) Beer selection was limited, but still good. Service was kind and attentive.
