CENTERVILLE, VA – This restaurant is a single location pizza parlor located off RT29 near Rt28. The location is about the only good thing about the place. When approaching the shopping plaza where this restaurant is located, you need to approach in the north bound lane. Coming over from the southbound lane is a little tricky only because of the amount of traffic the highway handles so you might be sitting for a bit.

When I walked in, I was surprised how small the location was. There was only 3 tables with 4 chairs a piece and they seemed pretty cramped in there. The back operation seemed to be spilled out into what little dining area they had. The delivery driver was complaining about how he could not GPS the delivery location since it was in a new development. In general, the location seemed to be a little bit chaotic.

I called my order in as I was leaving work to help save time. I was told it would be about 10 minutes until the pizza would be ready. I plugged the address into my GPS and I was off to get my lunch. Getting to the location was a bit tricky only for the one turn but I was quickly rerouted to my destination. Everything was ready whenever I arrived at the location. The pricing seemed decent. I paid $7.41 for a small, 10” plain cheese pizza.

When I opened the box, the first thing I noticed was the amount of grease I saw. There was grease on the pizza but it was not dripping off. I would say this pizza is a middle of the road with the grease levels. Some grease could be blotted off but it was not dripping. As I ate the pizza, I noticed that some places were cooked more than others. It seems as if there is patchy baking with the oven that they are using with how the pizza baked.

Overall, it was a nice place to get carry our pizza from but it is up to you with the grease level you can tolerate. Be Well and NEVER Pay Retail!—
