This is a rather mixed review, but gave only one star due to more disappointment than good. I really, really wanted to write a rave review! I LOVE small business! I will support and have supported them because it is vital!!! And I don't mind paying more, when it is GOOD!!! But sadly tonight, this was all just ok. I am so sad to say...just nothing to write home about. I really wanted to enjoy this evening out with my son, literally sit outside!
Good first, their new location, right next to their old place is nicely built and the patio is and will be amazing when done with the added kiosks for retail and ice cream! The fire pit, though not on will be a certain draw!
I will also say that the managers (I assume?, not sure who they were; know their job and do it well, they came out and explained, and did what they could to make things right, and I commend them, and do truly appreciate it!!)
First, I was really disappointed with no pasta selections, I had eaten there one time before and really enjoyed them. This was after we almost left. I get waitressing is hard, and it is hard work, but when they come by then do not, yet visit other tables several times, I gave her one more chance, and thankfully she came back over. I also get she is very young, I have lots of grace for that. Later discovered, by her own admission, she has worked there for a year, so...one would then think, you know how to do this job and can hand a few tables at the same time.
I had assumed, without checking a menu first (I drove home from work in Loveland, was tired, just wanted a quick bite NOT fast food, so didn't look) that pastas were still a choice and while I am now not eating white flour, many places offer gluten free or veggies in lieu of pasta.
So, I was stuck with pizza, or a salad, I did try the salad that was recommended it was good, not great, but good. I was offered any pizza, the kid's size and could be gluten free. Come to find out that is not an option (which leads me to think the gluten free crusts are pre bought, one size, if so, additional $6 seemed very steep to me, for one pizza for myself)
They did fix this for me, and I really appreciated it. The brussel sprout with smoked cheddar sounded really good, and I envisioned a pizza topped with actual brussel sprouts and bacon. What came was so very sad. Maybe an entire slice of bacon was diced on this pizza, and then there were a total of maybe 7 brussel leaves. Yes, that's right...leaves. This full size was a $19 pizza! Then add $6 for gluten free crust, you have got to be kidding. The kids size alone was $15!
My son ordered the 3 meat, and it had a decent amount of meat. But for $20?
If you read any of my other reviews, I do rave when it is GOOD and impresses me. I am sorry to say, MOD pizza does a much better job at great toppings, same size pizza for less than half their price, gluten free or cauliflower for $3 more, all the toppings you can pile on if you want, wood fired. My family of 3, can each order a pizza, drinks and their No Name cakes for less then what my son and I ordered tonight (1 pizza, 1 full size but the kids price and one $8 salad) and we also just had water! UGH! I want small business to win. But this was such a huge bummer, and sadly we won't be returning. It just is not that good to justify the cost for what you receive. read more
