Mine was a bit disappointing, as it merely had black, sliced, pizza olives on it (as well as tomatoes, lettuce, etc.) Just a few Kalamata olives would have dramatically elevated the salad. My friend's house salad looked far more flavorful, and he said that he enjoyed it. We split a personal-sized pizza, with individualized ingredients for us on each half. However, it took awhile for our pizza to arrive. Initially, somebody else's small pizza was accidentally delivered to our table, but our waitress caught the mistake and took it away. I would have eaten it, though. The ingredients used on our shared pizza were both flavorful and fresh: pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushrooms, and red onions. During their Friday early-dinner time, the establishment's atmosphere was very relaxed and pleasant. I liked how this out-of-the-way joint had a friendly, neighborhood vibe to it, and that it wasn't jam-packed with college students. I was impressed that live music began at about 6:00 pm. A guitarist/singer going by the name Madison Ellen (Mothershed) adeptly covered tunes from various musical eras. She even took song requests. Her voice had a very pleasant tone, and her guitar-playing was quite impressive. I look forward to buying her album when she releases it in a few months! Our waitress, Lindsay, was friendly, informative, and efficient. I would be pleased to sit in her section again. I liked how she was open to feedback about the food menu and bar offerings. (For instance, I suggested that they offer more than merely the inferior O'Doul's as their sole nonalcoholic beer selection.) Three-and-half stars, rounded up to four stars; mainly due to the nicely relaxing atmosphere, as well as the excellent live music without a cover charge. I recommend this eatery, and hope to return again soon in order to try more of their pizzas.

Got the margherita pizza tonight and I gotta say, very underwhelming. The crust was perfect as usual, and every topping was great except for the sauce. The sauce was so acidic that it almost gave the pizza this sour/spicy taste, definitely needs some baking soda in there to take the acidity down, not your average margherita experience. Can't recommend their other dishes enough this is the first bad one I have ever had, just stay away from the marg pizza. Still ended up eating over half regardless, my hunger was stronger than my tastebuds. This is in no way to tear them down, this is a recommendation to greatly improve upon this one specific pie.

My friend and I had the 1812 pizza, with extra onions. The red onions that were used were delicious. The cheese used was of a very high-quality. The edge of the pizza was a bit overcooked to the point of being charred/blackened in some areas. The service was polite and efficient. Most of the time, I find male servers to be inferior to female servers, but not in this particular case. If I'm the area again, I would consider returning. 3 1/2 stars, rounded down because 4 stars would be too generous. FYI: This location serves no beer/or alcohol.

I had noticed this place a few times and wanted something warm for lunch. Stopped, ordered two slices (pepperoni with Italian Sausage), got the lunch special price (very nice owner gesture). WOW. The two large slices of pizza were perfect. Dough was cooked properly from underneath so there was nothing uncooked and nothing overcooked. The toppings were great. Sauce just the right amount of favoring. Near the end of the first slice, my mind said you should probably wait a minute as you may be full enough after one slice. My taste buds said "F" that and I tore in to the second slice. I should have listened to my mind. Oh well, live and sometimes learn. EXCELLENT PIZZA BY THE SLICE. NOTHING PRECOOKED AND JUST SITTING THERE UNDER HEAT LAMPS FOR HOURS. After ordering it only took about 8 minutes before the owner brought the order to my car. Since I work 3 blocks away from work, this will definitely be repeat lunch and dinner to go spot.

Parking was ample, even if it meant walking a few dozen yards to the front entrance. I ordered the 12" Feta Supreme Pizza, and added extra onions. I was supremely impressed with how fresh all of the ingredients tasted. The waitress told me that the restaurant makes its own pizza dough from scratch. Also, they do the same thing for their sandwich bread. I had hoped that the feta cheese would have had more of a tangy flavor to it. Perhaps the heat of the pizza oven affected it? I really liked that they actually make their own tea in the restaurant the old-school way, with tea bags in a pot of boiling water on the stove. I hated that they served all of their drinks in styrofoam cups, though. The inside of the restaurant is rather modest, but seemed ample for the customers who decided to eat in. I noticed that there were at least half a dozen pick up orders during the time that I ate there. My waitress was attentive, informative, and friendly. I left her a decent tip because of it. It's my hope to return here again when I'm in the Jonesboro area. This place earned a solid four stars, and I wholeheartedly recommend this locally-owned pizza joint.
