Just ordered a thin crust pizza and mozzarella cheese sticks for carry out. It was ok. The cheese sticks tasted like old oil. The pizza was hard as a rock on the bottom with bare minimum cheese. Tasted weird. The staff was nice, except I believe it was the owner who let the door slam in my face when I was walking out with my hands full. She was coming in and didn’t say a word to me. I laughed, but I definitely won’t be back. I’ll get Dominoes instead. lol
First and last time I’ll be here. I walked in, walked to the counter and asked if I could see a menu to order some food. The older woman who I assume is the manager/owner instantly greeted me in a rude manner and rolled her eyes as if asking for a menu was an inconvenience. I ended up ordering a hot Italian sub sandwich. She told me to take a seat and she’ll bring it over to me when it’s ready. She brought it to me in a carry out container (which is not a problem to me) then proceeded to get upset that I was planning on eating it there. She told me next time I come there to sit down and have a waitress come over so they can receive tips off the order. I would have no problem doing so had she asked if it was to go or dine in or if there was a sign near the door that says “seat yourself” and my common sense would tell me that a waitress would be taking my order. Which I also would obviously tip. I open my container and the first thing I see on top of my sandwich is a giant onion root. This might’ve been the soggiest sandwich I’ve ever had from the excessive amount of dressing/mayo. The bottom was literally mush/falling apart as soon as I picked it up. I was only able to eat about 60% of the sandwich because it was impossible to hold. This place was recommended to me so I never looked at the reviews. After visiting I looked at other reviews and photos… as an Italian myself this is a disgrace to Italian food. I won’t speak negatively on the servers as I didn’t have one however seeing them with the other guests, they seemed to be very friendly with them and eager to help. Hopefully that manager isn’t as rude to them as she is with the guests.
I am shocked! I have never had an issue with my food until tonight! The fries had a weird taste to them, and as I was about to eat some more, and I seen this blue thing in my fries! I have no idea what it is, but it ruined my dinner! I don’t think, I will eat here again. It only takes one time for me.
There are few decent places to eat in Butner and Creedmoor beyond fast food. This is a nice little locally-owned Italian restaurant that strives to make customers happy. They succeed more often than not. My experiences have all been good ones. The service is friendly, the dishes made fresh and flavorful, the price is right, and they check to make sure you are satisfied. They deserve our support and patronage. Good place for travelers as well. Two thumbs up!
I was dining with a large party and I was the first to order but the last one to get my food. And I just ordered a chicken ceasar salad! The food was really good though and they did give me discount. Thanks!
