Wow! Not since visiting Italy have I tasted this kind of Italian food.

We ate there which is a very casual family table (seating for about 20). No bread was available, but that left room for Tiramisu and a peach jam thumbprint. Both were a great finish to the meal.

The place deserves a 3.9, but I only gave it a 3.0 as it committed an unpardonable sin: the credit…read morecard surcharge (or as they call it here: "ADMIN FEE"). Accordingly the Merchants Payments Coalition the credit card surcharge/admin fee, has increased from 2.02% in 2010 to 2.35% in 2024. Now while I agree this seems a little high, it's not catastrophic, and I have trouble believing this 0.33% increase has directly led to this brave new world of bifurcated billing: one price for cash and second price that is somewhat more than 0.33% greater. Well it has at the The Brick Oven, as I was charged 3.75% (see photo). If your going charge me more to use my credit card, then you need inform me. And as the only thing I really demand from capitalism is transparent pricing, do owners really want to start off my dining experience with a review of how it ends? Well instead this place chose to avoid this checkered conversation by annotating the bottom of my bill accordingly. Dining here was supposed to a moment to relax with my wife and think some very Twainian thoughts, and not about conducting some financial analysis. But I guess that's the last memory the owner wants to impart. Our server (the guy who lives above the place), was excellent and I feel bad about taking the difference between 3.75% and my 2% credit card cash back out of his tip, but something must be done. Btw: Whenever I'm asked to choose between paying more or paying cash, I always have a distinct feeling it's less about saving a dollar in credit card fees and more about saving 20 dollars in taxes.

I was created right away by a very pleasant young lady who asked me if I wanted a table. I told her I was there to do a take away order and she took my order properly. I ordered a Stromboli and a small Caesar salad. It only took about 10 minutes from my order to come out and I left. I can definitely not recommend the Stromboli. It was a very greasy and flavorless dish. I will go back and try it again, but I guarantee you I will not do the Stromboli and I can only imagine the calzone isn't much better.

The manager had no interest or desire to remake the food, and we were 30 minutes away and it was ten pm by this time, so too late to get anything else. Never again!!!

A kind lady at the Winston Churchill Museum suggested we try it, and I'm so glad she did! She also mentioned that their Tiramisu is house made and delicious!! We started with the chicken parmigiana appetizer, which was really tasty. Chicken was fried to perfection and the tomato sauce wasn't overpowering.. just the right taste! For the main course, we went with the Missouri Pie, which had a unique blend of minced pork and beef. I'd never had a combo like that on pizza before, and I really enjoyed it. The crust was thin and flaky, baked well, and the meat gave it a rich and hearty flavor. I added Parmesan, chili flakes, and oregano, which elevated the taste of the pizza for sure. Since it was a Sunday afternoon, the place was buzzing with people and everyone seemed to be enjoying their food. It's such a fun and refreshing addition to the quiet, history-filled town of Fulton. Definitely worth a stop after visiting the nearby Berlin Wall, Museum and Christopher Wren church!
