“ I was really craving pizza, and my uncle couldn’t stop raving about this place. He told me they had surprisingly great soup and excellent pizza, so we had to check it out. We ordered a large round pizza with pepperoni and sausage, and I was really impressed with the big chunks of sausage they use—it’s not your typical crumbled sausage, and it made the pizza even more flavorful. Honestly, we ended up wiping out the whole pizza in one sitting! My uncle also tried the broccoli and cheese soup, and he said it was absolutely delicious. The restaurant itself has a really cool, laid-back vibe, and the people working there are super friendly and welcoming. The service was excellent from start to finish. I can’t wait to come back again—this place is a hidden gem in Dobson! ”

“ Surprisingly amazing! I grew up in an Italian town and I am pretty picky about my Italian dishes. I have to be honest that I was not expecting anything close to great when we decided to eat here but I was pleasantly surprised. To start they have a true Italian salad with their own olive oil and vinegar dressing which is excellent. The bread is great. I go the shrimp diavolo. Nice and spicy. Big shrimp. Wonderful taste. I wanted to save half but I couldn't stop eating. Friendly staff. Clean space. If I'm ever in the area again I will definitely be back. ”
“ The staff are super friendly and know the menu well. The owner speaks to you personally and doesn't forget a face! The food is simply outstanding! Pizza like you've never had! This is the only Italian restaurant that offers anchovies (a must have for me!) in the county! Italian dining at its finest and beautiful murals on the walls enhance the atmosphere. Pasta is divine along with homemade sauce! Quiet and quaint yet great for groups as well! Don't miss this hidden gem! Ps- I forgot to mention the delightful homemade desserts! ”
