This place is a hidden gem. Excellent customer service and the owner (I think), offered to carry my pies to my car and even held the door open for me and I only bought 2 pies and dessert. It was nice to see that there are still kind people out there. The presentation of the food was amazing and my family was pleased with the food. The ONLY suggestion I have is maybe look into offering vegan pizza? :) otherwise, all great!! - MB G
